The sound of one of the bedroom doors slamming open and hitting the wall with a loud CRACK! Nearly made Venus jump out of his skin and drop the plate he was in the middle of scrubbing. Before he could even regain his composure, the sound of footsteps angrily making their way to the kitchen, where the redhead currently was located.
Venus didn't even need to turn around to be able to tell who it was, judging by the sound of the footsteps stopping only a few feet behind him and their eyes boring into the back of his skull. Venus didn't even want to look into the eyes that will most likely see every inch of his very soul. Not today.
With a slow exhale, they spoke up "Venus... C'mere for a sec" They said through gritted teeth. "Not right now, I'm in the middle of-" "Did I give you an option?" They interrupted. Venus inhaled sharply "I guess not." Venus huffed as he set the plate down in the sink and dried his hands off by rubbing then against his jeans. The moment he turned around, he was met with the very intense gaze of Earth. He mentally winced by how... Pissed he looked.
"Come." Earth grunted as he grabbed Venus by the wrist and dragged him out of the kitchen. Venus yelped by how harsh he was pulled away "Ow, ow, ow! Quit it!" Venus hissed as he attempted to rip his wrists free, but to no avail, no use. Earth had a vice grip and was not letting go.
Venus was dragged down the hallway and was roughly pushed into his bedroom. "The hell was that for?!" Venus snapped. Earth closed the door behind him and turned to face Venus, his eyes staring deep into his. Venus shifted uncomfortably under Earth's harsh gaze, but tried not to make it obvious about how uncomfortable he felt. He wasn't exactly sure what it was, but whenever Earth was pretty upset about something, he had this very intense glare that looked like he was plotting, imagining, and think of ways to kill you right then and there. Very unsettling, but Earth didn't do it a lot. So Earth must be very ticked off about something. Something that included Venus.
"Sit."
"No, you can't just-"
"I said sit"
Venus reluctantly did so. He sat down at the edge of his bed, hands on his knees as he watched Earth take a few steps forward. Earth inhaled sharply before speaking up, his stern "Now, I need you to be honest with me. No poking around the bush. Is that understood?"
"About what exactly..?" "Is. That. Understood."
Venus gave a sheepish nod as he chewed the inside of his cheek.
"Good" Earth exhaled as he regained his composure. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. "Explain this" Earth demanded, less stern but more concerned than anything. Which wasn't good. Venus could feel his heart quicken as he stared at the folded piece of paper that's in Earth's hand. Venus hesitantly reached for it and unfolds it.
Suddenly, his heart stops and he swears the room temperature dropped. He stairs at the messy and unorganized letters that are scribbled on the flimsy piece of paper.
Earth has his arms crossed over his chest as he waits for an answer from Venus.
"I... Where did you find this..?" Venus questions, refusing to look up. Earth lets out what sounds like a small whimper "Found on the floor in here" "What were you don't in my room?!" Venus almost yells, causing Earth to jump a little at the sudden change in tone "I was trying to see if you were in here but I saw that on the ground, so naturally I pick it up!" Earth explains, though he sounds just as upset.
"But that does not give you the right to go through my room!"
"Don't get mad at me! I'm not the one who write a fucking suicide note!"
The room falls silent.
Too silent.
Earth let's out a shaky sigh as he sits down next to Venus. "What I want to know it..." Earth says with a wavering tone "is why.."
The question hangs in the air, causing a thick cloud of tension in the air. Venus sets the not aside as he tries to figure how to explain himself. How is he supposed to? Venus starts to bounce his leg as he fidgest with his hands, a habit he's picked up since he was young. "I.. I don't know.. I just, it was just in case for if I ever decided to-" Venus stops himself from finishing the sentence. But Earth gets the hint. Earth already knew Venus had a history of destructive tendencies, but he didn't know about this. "Why didn't you tell me you were considering it..?" Earth asks in a small, wavering voice as his eyes meet Venus's. Venus doesn't want to look but he can't pull himself away. "I.. I didn't want to worry you it anyone else. I'm already a screw up as it is" "you're not." Earth states firmly, resting a hand in Venus's shoulder.
"But it's true, I can't do nothing right!" Venus rambles "I'm just the extra sack of flash that isn't needed! I shouldn't even been b-" "Stop it. Don't you even. Finish. That sentence." Earth rasps. Venus could tell he's holding back tears, so is he. "You're not any of those things you day you are, Vee... You are a very strong and intelligent being" Earth assures, giving Venus's shoulder a squeeze.
"And I honestly don't know what I would do if I lost you. We're a pair, are we not? And what's a pair without it's othe half?"
"Alone.."
"Exactly.. Look, I know it all seems like too much to bear. But I promise it's not worth it, you are one of the many that proved that to me"
Venus lets those words sink in for a moment. Yes, Earth was in a dark place at one time and he, along with the others, talked some sense into him. But Venus was starting to unconsider. Part of him was telling to do it while the other, pleaded him not to.
He felt a strange feeling bubbling up in his chest, as a small, quiet sob clawed it's way to his throat. He tried so desperately to hold them down, but his emotions had other plans. Oh, god this was embarrassing.
Venus let another sob, this one a but louder and that's when Earth pulled Venus into one of his bear hugs that Vennus will never admit that he loves. Venus buries bus face into the crook of Earth's neck, letting out a jumbled mess of apologies and some gibberish mumbling along the way. Earth just sat there, soothing him. Rubbing his back and giving some soft words of affirmation, but judging by the occasional sniffle that Venus was able to pick up, he could tell Earth was crying as well. Which made Venus hug him tighter.
Maybe there was actually something worth living for, even if it doesn't seem like that. If it wasn't for himself, he would pull through and stay. For Earth's sake. Just the idea of Earth deal in with more pain that Venus caused, just didn't sit right with him.
It really wasn't worth it.
