I was in darkness, so darkness I became

A P H M A U

When we got back, we were greeted with the exact same rotting building. It felt different though, there was a weight in my chest as Garroth turned to me and said.

"Goodnight Azura"

And then he did something unexpected, he kissed my cheek. He walked into his room as I silently freaked out. I closed the door behind me as I walked into my room. I lifted a hand to the spot where his lips touched my cheek. My face burned with a blush. And the weight in my chest only grew. I knew this weight too well.

It's guilt from lying to him

He thinks I'm Azura. When I'm Aphmau.

Why does he have to be so confusing? Ugh, whatever, I need to get out of here as fast as I can.

I layed down deciding I'd leave in the morning.

I opened my eyes in a squint and saw a blurry face in front of mine. My eyes popped open and Garroth was there kneeling by my bedside.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?" I screamed. Garroth's eyes opened in realisation.

"S-SORRY!!! I-I J-JUST CAME T-TO WAKE Y-YOU U-UP, BUT B-BEFORE I-I COULD Y-YOU WOKE U-UP!!!" He explained with an adorable red face.

Wait....adorable? I don't think he's adorable!

Ignoring my little slip up, I let out a light laugh. When I opened them Garroth was in my face again, but he looked puzzled.

"Can I help you?" I asked

"I thought you had blue eyes, not hazel"

Suddenly my heart stopped.

Crap! My contacts!

"U-uh what're you talking about?" I nervously laughed. He shrugged and sat beside me.

"I need someone to talk to..." He sighed. I hesitantly nodded and sat to face him.

"I'm here..."

"A few months ago...I fell in love..." I inhaled sharply knowing the story too well, "she was my enemy, and I guess she fell for another guy, so I left. Truth be told, I never thought I'd fall for someone again. But in the short time I've known you, you've showed me I can move on. I know we've known each other for only a short time, but I think I love you Azura"

And then the tears came.

I should've left at midnight

"I-i'm s-sorry!" He apologized quickly.

"No, I'm sorry" my voice came out shaky as I bit my lip

"Wh-"

Before he could finish I grabbed his arms and bent them behind his back

"AH! AZURA WHAT THE HE-"

He was cut off by the sounds of my handcuffs closing.

G A R R O T H

My eyes widened when I felt cold metal hugging my wrists tightly.

"Traitor!" I barked. I heard her inhale a short shaky breath.

"Garroth..." She whispered. She turned me around and looked in my eyes. Her hazel ones hypnotized me. She grabbed my shirt collar and kissed me. And then it hit me.

The eyes

The laugh

The sad looks

The voice

Her lips

This is Aphmau

I melted into the kiss and felt her tears on my cheeks. Or were they my own? I was too overemotional to care. She pulled away and kicked some rope up from under her bed.

I put my head down unable to make eye contact. She tied me up and knocked me out.

I woke up in a chair. A chair I never wanted to sit in...

....the electric chair.

Aphmaus hair was down to her shoulders and was now a strangely beautiful mix of black and blond hair. She was in her skin tight jumpsuit. Her hip was kicked out and arms crossed over her chest. In her hand was a remote to what I assumed controlled the chair.

"Garroth Ro'Meave..." My name rolled off her tounge. Her words stabbed me like a knife.

"Aphmau Lorde..." I replied "darling..." I purred she looked me in the eye with a poker face and clicked the button.

Electricity ran through my veins, I let out a loud scream of pain as I felt my insides burn.

"Torturing you is going to be fun" she smirked.

"I could think of some other things more fun to do with me..." I smirked back at her. This time her face had a faint blush as she pressed the button again.

The second time was worse. It seemed to last longer. I felt like I was on fire internally.

"You betrayed us...and then tried to steal from the agency..." She stated firmly.

"You betrayed me and stole, and broke, my heart a second time" I countered. She clicked the button a third time and I let out another loud cry of pain.

"If you do make this out alive...your sense of humor won't."

I smiled and then let out a loud laugh.

"You won't kill me...you still love me"

She pressed the button again, and the pain increased. As the electricity dimmed I opened my eyes to an empty room. I let my head hand low as I fell into the temptation of passing out.
