Labeled. (Baekhyun Fanfic.)

8: The End.

In a few hours, the sweet Darcy was departing. Hyeri and Baekhyun knew there was no way to stop her from leaving. All three of them laid on the hospital bed, Hyeri on Darcy's left and Baekhyun on her right. They stared up at the moonlight ceiling, spending her last hours with her. By morning, they knew it would be too late.

"I don't think I'm sleeping at all tonight." Darcy whispered. The hospital was dead silent. It was close to midnight already.

"Why not?" Hyeri asked.

"Because I'm afraid I'll leave sooner than planned." Darcy gulped.

"Don't say tha-"

"I can't help it. I'm dying, Oppa." Darcy's voice was unstable. Her light sniffs filled the quiet room.

Baekhyun clasped his hand on Darcy's, "Your parents will be coming in six hours, you'll fight for them right?" 

"Of course. Death is not stopping me from seeing my parent's one last time." Darcy chocked on her tears.

"This conversation is not helping. We're suppose to get your mind off that subject." Hyeri sighed ad held Darcy's other hand.

"But it's all I can talk about." Darcy was nothing like the kids her age. She was curious but also very wise. "I'm scared."

"You're going to be alright." Hyeri gripped her hand tighter.

"No, I'm not. I'm done, Unnie." 

Baekhyun sighed heavily. "Darce, please."

"Do you have any last words to say to us?" Hyeri tried to change topics.

"Yes." Darcy cried harder. Her nose was clogged and her tears fell faster. "Please don't leave me, not now, not ever."

Her heart beat monitor slowed down. Her breath hitched. She didn't move. She couldn't move. 

"Honey, I love you. Appa loves you. We both love you more than you will ever know." Darcy's mother was drowning in her own tears. Darcy cried silently. She blinked blankly while tears still fell.

"Darcy, thank you for everything. Thank you for opening up my heart, Thank you for being my first true friend. Thank you for putting up with me. Thank you for being the coolest, sweetest, cutest, nicest, strongest ten year old ever. Unnie will always remember you." Hyeri began crying at this moment. She held Darcy's limp hand. Her heartbeat was irregular. 

It was soon. Darcy's plane was beginning to lift off.

"Baek, hurry. She's slipping away." Hyeri sobbed.

"Darcy, thank you for being a best friend. Thank you for being the best patient ever. You and I? We're absolutely inseparable. If you're afraid that Oppa will forget you, I won't - never. You've made an impact in my life and I can't thank you enough for being such a beautiful soul." Baekhyun held back tears. He couldn't cry, not here, not now.

Darcy cracked a small smile with as much effort as she could. The monitor sped up and a loud beeping noise erupted through the tight room. 

"Thank you." Darcy's last words fell from her tiny mouth as the line on the black screen died down.  

She was gone. 

A piece of both Hyeri and Baekhyun died along with Darcy. Hyeri bit her bottom lip - hard. Her hands turned into fists. Her knuckles turned white.

"I miss her already." Hyeri cried. Baekhyun reluctantly wrapped his arms around her frail body.

"Me too."
