Silent Whispers (Human Nightmarionne X Reader)

Chapter 15: Apology

You spend the evening with your sister, playing with her. Your parents only come back after many hours. They went everywhere Brian could have gone, but he was nowhere to be found. Your mother decides to call the police. Everyone in the household but your sister starts worrying about your brother. Indeed, she's too young to understand the situation. You just try to keep a happy face while being around her so she doesn't get affected by the circumstances. In a final attempt, you inspect his bedroom in order to try to find some clues about what could have happened or where he is, but to no avail. No one talks during dinner and you immediately go to bed afterwards.

Midnight strikes again, waking you up with the same obnoxious noise as the previous nights. Once again, Nightmarionne is at your door. You open and look up at him, then let him in.

"Hello again, [Y/n]. I'm happy to see you."

He sits down on your bed, gazing at you.

" - How have you been?

- What have you done to them?

- What do you mean?

- I know you did something to Brian and Raven, tell me!"

He looks down.

" - I... I don't know what happened.

- How couldn't you know that?!

- See, when my counterpart takes control, I can't remember his actions. However, he knows what I'm doing."

He looks back at you with a sad glance.

" - No matter what he did to them, I'm sorry.

- You really don't know what he did?"

He shakes his head. You sigh, sitting next to him.

"All I've ever wanted was... to be... loved."

A black tear rolls down onto his cheek.

"But I know it's impossible."

You suddenly hug him. He looks down at you, surprised and confused.

" - W-what are you doing?

- You are loved, Nightmarionne. There must be a way to fix this.

- No, there isn't. You shouldn't love me.

- I know, but I can't help it.

- I... I appreciate you the same way."

He slightly blushes and looks away.

" - So... what now?

- Now, you have to find them.

- Can we start now?

- Of course not, it's too dark. After school, before going back home, follow me. However, make sure I don't notice you. I think you'll find the answer.

- What answer?

- The answer to your question: "Where are they?".

- Really?

- Yes. I feel like you will find them if you follow me.

- Thank you I guess. I hope nothing too bad happened to them.

- I hope so."

You rest your head on his shoulder, making him blush again.

" - W-well... how about we take a walk outside? It's full moon tonight.
