Smoke And Mirrors | One Shot

~Smoke And Mirrors~

–Depression's P.O.V–

I never meant to call him out.
I've always seen been his smoke and mirrors.
"Oh, sweetheart, please don't yell at me. It really isn't hard to see, the truth that's rotting underneath." I said coldly, crossing my arms and rolling my eyes.

"...Why weren't you honest from the start. You know, I've always thought he must've liked you. He's just a temptress, don't you know? He'll say he loves, even though, he only wants to steal your soul!" I growled, pointing to his phone, which had a picture of all 3 of us together. Prince with his arm around Anxiety, and me kissing Anxiety's cheek.
Anxiety just rolled his eyes. "We're friends, Dee, you're just overthinking this.."
"No I'm not!"

"I'll
Save
You."

He said he'd always be my friend, that 'we'll get married when we both got older.'
"I'd never heard those words before. You made me long for something more, but then he tried to steal your love." I said, looking down. Anxiety looked at me with a confused expression. "What's with that look? Do you really think I'm out of line tonight?"

"Stop calling his name..! If you play my game, he may just make it out alive."

We both walked to the forest, it was far away from most houses, it was also next to a cemetery. Fun. "For the last time, I don't want to be here.. I was gonna hang out with Prince today.." Anxiety mumbled. I almost snapped, but luckily, I stayed calm, ignoring his remark.

"I
Love
You."

"I'm not asking much, just give me your heart!! And put no one else above me! Go, on, say you love me..! Take my hand in yours and tell me that I'll always be the one! Without you, my life means nothing, so just say you love me tonight..

And if you lie, that poor boy will have to die..." I yelled, eventually getting quieter. Anxiety had wide eyes, he was staring at me.

"...I'm sorry that I lost my cool. As you can see here, I've been very busy. I found his number in your phone, asked him to meet me here alone, so we could just one on one.." I explained the situation, but his expression didn't change, he only tenses up more.

"What's with that look? Do you really think I'm taking this too far? All you have to do, is swear that you'll be true, and I will let her go right now.~" I took his chin in my hand, grinning.

"Just
Don't
Lie."

That's when I heard footsteps from behind us.
"Hey...Anxiety? What's up? Why is Depression here as well..?" Prince asked, walking up to us. I forced on a small smile at him.
"Hi, Prince." I said before Anxiety could say anything, taking out a pocket knife I was hiding. Prince's eyes widened, the colour draining from his face. I took some steps towards him.
"D-Dee, stop.. j-just put the knife d-down, please.." Anxiety said from behind me, holding my wrist. I pulled my arm away, turning back to Prince.
"Bye, bye, Princey."

There was a loud scream, from both Prince and Anxiety, before Prince fell limp on the ground, a pool of blood already surrounding him. I smiled in satisfaction.

"...No I won't fall for this again. I'll always see behind your smoke and mirrors.. I know you love me deep inside, you're simply caught up in his lie, so I will cut you free myself." I mumble, looking back at Anxiety and wiping my bloody hands on my trousers.

"I'm not asking much, just give me your heart!! And put no one else above me! Please just say you love me..! Take my hands in yours and tell me that I'll always be the one. Without you, my life means nothing, so just say you love me!" Tears started streaming down his face, he was backing away quickly, almost stumbling over. I kept walking closer.

"C'mon, what's the problem?! Quit your crying, be a man! Surely, he couldn't mean that much, Let me give you my love!! Take my soul, my heart, and body. Yes, I give it all to you. And if you won't accept it.. You're gonna regret it..." I looked down slightly, gripping onto the pocket knife tightly.

"I hate to play these games..but you're driving me insane! Won't you tell me that you'll stay? Now that he's not in the way." Anxiety stared at me for a minute, his eyes flickering down to Prince who was completely lifeless now. He shook his head quickly before running away as fast as he could.

......

I don't expect anyone to read this, I was just listening to this song and I thought of Depression and Anxiety. This is horrible.

Bye!
