The End Has Begun (A Ticci Toby Romance)

Chapter 36 - The Wait

~~~ Sorry for the wait. College is a bitch. Love ya. ~~~

Lilia's POV

I was pacing ever since we got home. Ben and Slender were the first to hug me. I just brushed them off and paced back and forth. Sally was trying to get my attention, but I couldn't focus. Slender tried to heal my wings, but I wouldn't stop moving.

"Lilia?" Jack said, I tried to focus but I just stared into space for a moment before pacing again. Everyone looked at me worried, but I waved it off. Smile was worried about me too. I was pacing for I don't know how long when I heard running outside and I ran to the door and slammed it open. I saw Soul and Jeff, carrying Toby. I smelt blood, Toby's blood.

"NO!" I ran to Jeff and stole my Toby from him and ran him inside to Slender. Tears were streaming down my face. I didn't have to say anything, neither did he. Toby, Slender and I went upstairs to mine and Toby's adjoined rooms. I set him on the bed and held his hand. Slender did everything he could, but Toby wouldn't wake up.

"Angel, I..." I held up my hand and he knew to just stop. I held myself together for a minute or so, just long enough for Slender to leave. I locked the door and sobbed.

"WHY!?!?!" I sulked and cried for hours. I didn't want to see anyone, or hear anyone. I walked into my room, locked that door, and grabbed my phone and ear buds. "I need music." I thought, going back to Toby's side. I turned on my depressed playlist and listened to it for hours staring at Toby's unconscious body. Nowhere Kids by: Smile Empty Soul played and I put it on repeat. I eventually started singing the song after who knows how long.

"In the land of dirt and plaster
lies an army of a thousand nowhere kids
losing ground and falling faster into a life that no one should have to live
We are the people that you hate
we are the bastards that you created
a generation with no place
a generation of all your sons and daughters
Behind the fake family image
behind the smile of a thousand moms and dads
inside the cage that we've been given I see an image of the future that we don't have
We are the people that you hate
we are the bastards that you created
a generation with no place
a generation of all your sons and,
We are the people that you hate
the fucking bastards that you created
a generation with no place
a generation of all your sons and daughters
and what did you expect ... a perfect child
raised by TV sets ... abandoned every mile
we never get respect ... never a fair trial
no one gives a shit ... as long as we smile... smile...smile
We are the people that you hate
we are the bastards that you created
a generation with no place
a generation of all your sons and,
We are the people that you hate
the fucking bastards that you created
a generation with no place
a generation of all your sons and daughters." I sang that a few time before falling asleep.
