Guiltless insanity

Chapter 8: What have you done..?

Third person POV

The sudden shouts of disagreement were immediate. It was like she just told them she'd slaughter their entire lineage. She just asked to go for one hour. That was all. The way they saw it though...an entire hour...alone? They hated that. That was one thing Billy and Brahms agreed on. They hated, despised the idea of being alone, without their darling...it was the one thing they did not want to do.
"No way in hell, miss y/n.."
The first to retaliate was Brahms. He even grabbed her wrist in case she had the idea to run.

"Pretty y/n...pretty girl...you can't leave Billy...can't leave us...we've been good.."
The second to retaliate, was of course, Billy. Billy had gone into his...twisted state of mind, which was never good, that meant his thoughts were starting to get self destructive, murderous and overall, so, so twisted, clinically insane. This was bad. Very, very bad. Billy had also grabbed her arm, but her other arm, and like Brahms, his grip was tight. So, so, incredibly tight.

She was starting to feel that familiar sensation of fear creeping up her spine. This was enough to make her blood run cold. It was terrifying. She soon spoke, telling them yet again.
"Billy..Brahms..I just need to go shopping for groceries...please?"
She spoke honestly, her voice full of sincerity, but she knew it'd be impossible to convince these two.

She knew, it'd be difficult, so difficult, it was like talking to a brick wall when speaking to Brahms, Brahms always got what he wanted, and Billy would sometimes listen, but when he was in this state, it was impossible to get him to listen. Not to mention that fact that both Billy and Brahms had abandonment issues, they got attached easily and we're terrified of losing those close to them since they'd already been betrayed or left behind by loved ones. And they'd both been manipulated. They didn't want it to happen again, so it was natural that they'd retaliate.

"Miss y/n...I think you misheard us. You're going nowhere. You can't leave us."
Brahms' voice was terribly dangerous. It was terrifying, tremendously terrifying. It was enough to put the fear of god into her. Enough to make her shiver down to the core.

"pretty y/n...you're never leaving Billy...or Brahms...you said you'd stay with us, pretty girl..."
Billy spoke next, his voice as dangerous as Brahms'. It was their natural, instinctual response. To be violent. People always loved them until they hurt them...

She soon spoke again, quickly, truly trying to convince them.
"Listen, I'll only be gone for an hour, I'll be back as soon as that hour is up, I swear. I won't be late and I will not, under any circumstances, leave you here forever, I'll be back as quick as I can, if I hurry it'll even take less than an hour, please."
She begged them, pleaded with them, their grip stinging her arms like a thousand hornets.

"...fine...pretty y/n better keep her word...won't she?"
Billy spoke threateningly, staring her down menacingly, it was clear that she needed to be careful around him at this time. If she wasn't, she may as well have been counted as dead. She could feel his eyes stabbing her own.

Brahms had different views however. He thought she was going to leave him. Just like Greta did...but she was not. Brahms' trust issues were terrible, horrible, just as bad as Billy's, but Billy was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt, Brahms was not. Brahms wanted to keep her there, either against her will or willingly. He hated the thought of being away from her. So he spoke.
"Y/n...you're staying. End of. No excuses."

His voice was full of authority, a chunk of the man that was torn to shreds coming back in that moment as he acted his age. It was almost scary how quickly he could change, just like Billy.
"Brahms...Billy thinks we should give her a chance..she'll come back...she will...she doesn't think Billy is nasty...not nasty...not bad..she likes us... she'll come back...pretty girl has to.."
