Tough Love ( Ben Drowned X Reader)

~Training~

Your Pov~

"Fuck!" I screamed in pain.

I have been training for weeks on end, I haven't been out of the training room since I found out my parents were killed. I have been forcing E.J. to make me monsters for my powers, which I mean threaten him. I keep having my powers control me when I get angry. I looked and my hands to see blisters, cuts and blood dripping down. 

"Damnit." I mumble under my breath.

I walked out of the training to the bathroom so I could bandage my hands up, bad idea. Once I stepped out of the room I was tackled down by someone small. I felt something wet drip on my chest, I looked up to see a crying Sally. I sat up and looked in her beautiful emerald green eyes that had a touch of sadness. I knew she was worried about me, I looked passed her and saw everyone else looking like they're on the edge of crying as well.

"What...???" I asked looking down at the floor.

"Midnight you need to quit training." E.J. says in a low sad tone.

"Why?"

"Because you're hurting yourself, just look at your hands." Ben somewhat yelled.

I looked down at my hands and saw the blood pouring out and landing on Sally's soft pink dress. The stinging of the pain made me realize what I was doing to myself. Then I knew why would Ben care about my well-being. I stood up setting Sally on the ground, and death glared everyone.

"Why would you guys care?!?" I yelled.

"Because you're getting hurt." Ben replied back.

"Well none of you know how it feels not to be able to go back home and see my family the only family I have there. I have no home and no family, so don't try to stop me." I spat at them.

"Dark child calm down." Slender calmly said.

"No I'm not going to calm down, it's all because of you that my parents were killed. If you never brought me here I would have saved my parents!" I spat with venom dripping down my words.

Everyone took a step back expect Sally, she just stood there. I faced her with guilt in my eyes, I hated to see her hurt. I walked towards her and crouch down to her level and smile shyly.

"Why are you doing this?" Sally choked out.

"Sally please I need to do this, be strong for me." I smiled.

She just hugged my tightly before running towards Slenderman and hugging him. I stood back up walked towards the bathroom to get my bandages for my bloody hands. 

~Time Skip~

"NOW!"

I yelled at myself to release my darkness at the dummy, feeling the pain of overdoing it. I gathered all my power and formed an kitana out of my darkness. I lift it up and darted towards the dummy and sliced it in half. I huffed out, I couldn't believe that my powers were getting stronger. I stumble back and hit my sweaty back against the wall, and slid down to the floor out of breath. My vision went hazy and started to see black spots. Before I could yell for someone, I fell in my own darkness.

Ben's Pov~  

"But Slender she's gonna get hurt!" I yelled.

"Ben child please she's gonna be ok." Slender replied.

I was in argument with him about Midnight and her constantly training, I was worried about her. Everyone only could hear was her yelling or breaking things, she's been getting out of hand. We've haven't seen her for weeks, and if we did it only be in the control room or her getting more bandages. So I decided to talk to her about training so hard. 

"You know what I'm going to speak with her." I said walking away from him.

Slenderman didn't say anything but nod. I walked towards the training room, when I heard was silence. This worried me, because she would be yelling or breaking something. I picked up my pace and ran towards the door. I opened the door only to see her not there. I started to panicked, where could she have gone? I walked in the room when I heard and soft quiet snore. I turned around to see her on the floor curled up in a ball, with her ears flatten and tail wrapped around her. I started to feel my cheeks warm up.

"Mommy please don't leave me..." 

I looked down to see Midnight talking in her sleep, but why? I started to see her twitch and shake. I crunch down to pick her and take her to the living room where she can rest. I put one arm under her neck and head, and the other under her legs. I stood up with her in my arms like the first time I did when I brought her here to the mansion. I slowly walked out of the room when she started to move around. I got out of the training room and out to the living room, but there was going to be a problem. Masky, Hoodie, and Toby were out there watching tv. 

'Great this is going to be easy to do.' I thought sarcastically.

"Hey Masky hey hey hey hey Masky." Toby annoying said poking Masky in my face.

"T-Toby quit p-poking M-Masky." Hoodie quietly whispered.

I got behind the couch when I saw Toby's eye shift towards my direction. I just rolled my eyes and walked in front of the couch with Midnight still in my arms. I saw the three staring at me, well Masky and Toby were glaring me. I just smirked at them.

"What are you doing with Midnight?" Masky asked while standing up.

"I wanted to talk to her, but when I went in the training room she was on the floor sleeping. So to be nice I brought her out here so she could sleep." I said placing her down on the couch.

She just sunk in the couch and curled back into a ball, but this time she put her tail over her eyes. I walked to the chair next to the couch and took off the blanket and placed it over her small figure. She looked so peaceful when I set the blanket on her. Then an idea popped in my head.

"Hey Hoodie do you mind to get Sally for me?" I asked.

"W-why?"

"I'll show you when you get her."

"O-ok." 

'This is gonna be so cute.'  I thought.
