A Mercs Best Friend...Or More? (Sinner Male Y/n X Carmilla Carmine)

Healing

(Third Person POV)

Tom is still standing next to a unconscious Y/n as Carmilla rushes off to reinforce defense and possibly plan a counter attack if they can find where the enemy came from. Tom turns to look at Y/n and sighs, "Wir alle tragen unsere Gefängnisse mit uns herum, nicht wahr? Ich muss sagen, Ihres ist ziemlich beeindruckend." He then takes a seat beside him, "You are quite an interesting piece in this game you play. Always wanting companionship, yet refusing to embrace it when it arrives. Helping others with their problems, and punishing yourself when you get one."

A nurse walks by to check up on Y/n but Tom waves her away, "He's in the same condition, slowly getting better." The nurse nods and walks away, not wanting to piss off Tom. Tom turns back to Y/n, "I had a life like yours once you know? Back when I allowed myself to become attached. It was nice, but then I lost it all. I tried to rebuild with new friends and family down here, but they faded away too. I became tired of watching everyone turn to dust around me, eventually I gave up on companionships." He lets out a bitter chuckle.

Tom then starts to have a mini breakdown next to Y/n, "With my ability I can simply become untouchable, no blade, normal or angelic, would be able to scratch me! I'm fucking immortal! That's supposed to be the dream, the goal, the prize that everyone wants!" He begins to cry softly a little, "But immortality doesn't just mean living forever, immortality is watching everyone else die." He starts to recompose himself and stand up.

"Well, it appears that you may have a different life ahead of you. I will do what I can to ensure it's a good one, after all 'Burn with me' was a Hell of a line for your last words Y/n. How could I not want to see where your story goes?" He then turns and leaves the medical wing, and heads towards the command room to see the progress. As he's walking he hears something that makes him smile, "Quello che è successo? Stanno tutti bene? C'mon, hurry up and tell me!" Tom turns around a corner and sees Sebastian practically interrogating one of the nurses.

"Hello my friend! I figured you'd wake up sooner rather than later thanks to the RUSH that Y/n gave you. Everyone is fine except for one casualty in security team Charlie." Seb turns to see Tom, "What happened exactly? How do we only have one casualty?" Tom smiles widely, "Because Y/n saved your ass and I mostly did the rest." Sebastian looked very confused as to how the barracks clown had 'did the rest' so Tom decided to walk him through what happened. After explaining everything, including how Y/n was currently in the medical wing due to possible attempted suicide, Sebastian was quiet.

"Is he recovering alright?" Tom just nods. "And You're really The Nightmare of Leipzig? Kind of difficult to believe but it would explain how you sneak up on me sometimes for your pranks." Tom laughed a little, "Well now I suppose those just got a little more difficult to accomplish I assume." Sebastian chuckle slightly, "Yeah, I'll be on my guard for you now." They say their goodbyes and part ways.

Tom makes it to the barracks and tells the others all that happened and helps them start to get ready for whatever may come next. The rest of the day went by in a quiet but quick paced fashion, so many things to get done as fast as possible. It was a sleepless night for Carmilla and Tom, Tom forced Sebastian to get some sleep to make sure he recovers completely before the next fight. It was just Carmilla and Tom in the command room inspecting the blueprints of the upgrades to the facility.

"Quite impressive fräulein." Carmilla just mutters to herself about it not being enough. Tom realizes that she's starting to wear out, "Perhaps you should head home for now, I can take it from here." Carmilla shakes her head, "No, I can keep going. I'm sure you're exhausted too." "I don't sleep boss, I don't tire physically unless I'm up for weeks. Just go home and rest, Zehn müde Denker sind nutzloser als ein Narr." Carmilla sighs, "I still don't know German Tom." "Just go home boss, I can handle some paperwork by myself."
