You walk back to the first floor of the house.. ahh it feels so weird!! All the sadnesses you saw before are gone and the house isn't all messed up anymore!
You walk trough a hallway.
You haven't felt this full, or clear-headed in months..

You feel.. Safe.

You step out to the middle of the hallway.. the others are waiting for you on the other side...
...?
Wasen't there.. something worth remembering about this hallway..?
Something.. Diffre--

CRASH

"SIFFRIN!!"
you hear your family...--frieds--
Calling out your name in pure horror

You feel a tug... ON YOUR STOMACH AND-
"!!"

WHAT...!!!?? What...
No.... No no no no no no no no NO!!!
you're back... NO!! You thought I'd be over...
You beat the king!! With your family!! They found out of your loops!!!

Now you have to do it...
All over again..?
You want to cry

Your stomach hurts it hurts so bad it feels like your lungs are on fire and there's a rock on your throat you cant..! Breathe...! You turn on your side desperately trying to breathe you can't- you can't can't can't CAN'T!!! you...

You pass out
When you wake again you are... In the clock tower..? What..?

"Sif!! Siffrin!! Oh grab S-siffrin!!"

You look at Isa

What..? Huh...This has never happened before..

"Siffrin... Are you okay..?
We thought you might be dead for a minute!! You were barely breathing!!"

As Isa keeps rambling on mira comes in the building
.. Where was she..? Before this..?
You hear her gasp
"Siffrin!!"
" Oh thank change!!! You don't even know how worried I was!!"
"I came to look for you but when I came... You... You..!!"
You see her start to cry
No no no NO!! Don't make Mirabelle upset!! Fix it!!

>"I'm fine!!--"
You open your mouth to speak but you only cough up blood... What the?

"Sif??" Isa looks at you in distress

You-okay... If you can't tell them you are fine then... You'll just have to comfort them... But how..?

You sit up the word around you spins
You feel like someone Is stabbing you in the stomach you wince in pain but don't stop

"S-siffrin!! No no lay back down you still look unwell!!"

You... Flop down back to the bed

"S-siffrin do you know what happened..?"

Wait.. mira and Isa are here that you know for sure.. you listen closely you try to hear any cutterly, a singh of bonnies presence...

Odile isn't there eighter or she'd probably already say something...
You feel as if a knife is piercing your throat as you try to speak.. But you HAVE to know

"..."
>"..where... Where..I..s...Bonbon..?...
And...Odile..?"

You ask ignoring the intense pain
Mirabelle looks really concerned but answers regardless

" Odile.. she went out with Bonnie we agreed they shouldn't see you... When you're this hurt...
It might really..."

Ahh you don't need to hear her say it to know..
They would be discussed,
Angry, and laugh at your face for being so pathetic and tell you how much they hate-
No.. No no no... He told you he didn't hate you... He even gave you snacks!! Eternal snacks!!
He hugged you and told you he cares!!! It wasn't real... But it was!! It was real!! Even if you somehow messed up AGAIN!! still all of that... Was real... It was the only thing that felt real in the moment...
"Siffrin..."

"I... I'm gonna... T-touch you..! Now..! I-I feel like you'd need it..! I-If yo-"

You grab your hands around Isa hugging them tightly
He seems supriced
But.. After a moments hesitation he wraps his arms around you
It's real it's real... PLEASE!! be REAL!!!

...

you... Hear footsteps closening.. Running?

"FRIN!!"

Isa let's go off you.
... Just a little more...
You don't have time to even adnolige it before a preteen collides with you you jump and fall back on to the bed... Bonnie doesn't let go

"Odile just told me!! Why didn't anyone say anything sooner!!??"

"I tried to keep them away for a bit to give you space... But he kept insisting to know what was going on... Why you two looked so upset.."

He looks back at Isa and mira

"Eventually I had to tell them"
she sighs
"you feeling better siffrin?"
You.. free one of your hands from the tight hug Bonnie is still giving you.. they are crying onto your chest
(.. Stars you are horrible-)
You.. race a hand and show a thumbs up

"Good" Odile nods
Bonnie seems to be done with being sad and jumps off of you
... You frown

"okay... why the GRAB did no one tell me about frin!??!?"

"We..." Mirabelle starts
Odile Sighs as she's not going to tell them Odile says easily

"We didn't want to upset you.. there was no reason to tell you before he woke up"

"And what if he didn't!?"

Bonnie starts.. you have sat up at this point looking at your family in confusion.. seems like you really worried them..

How awful are you?

You see tears glimmering in bonnies eyes

"what if he didn't wake up!?? What if he.. He..!
You- you would have never told me!?? Never told me what happened!??"

Death... A permanent one... Dosen't seem so bad now... after everything.

"Of course we would!!"

Mirabelle looks upset..
You have to stop this

"..."
Lay back on the bed
"Stop it"
>"I'm fine..!! You can stop..fight-"

your words are left unfinished as you start coughing up blood again..
so worthless can't even speak huh?

"FRIN!"

You.. Lay back on the bed the world is spinning violently
You see bonnies head looking over you and smile at him

>"I'm fine everything's fine..."

You whisper to them before falling asleep...
The last thing you feel is bonnies small warm hand in yours.. he's really worried huh..?
Everything grows dark..
