Empty Promises (Bloody Painter x Reader) [RE-WRITTEN]

Chapter 6 - I Need To End This!

~HELEN POV~

At about midnight, I went down to (Y/N)'s house, and I got in the same way as usual, I grabbed a stick and jammed it under the window and moved it back and forth until it loosened the lock and I was able to pull it open. Once it was open, I silently climbed inside and pulled out my knife. I walked over to her, getting on my knees in order for me to be at her level. I raised my knife high, ready to strike down at her and kill her at last, but the more I looked down at her beautiful features, I couldn't do it. The lust for blood was gone. I couldn't kill her.

I slowly lowered my knife and put it away. I sat down and leaned against the wall behind me, continuing to look at her sleeping face.

I starting thinking about the life we used to have. How we looked after each other after the accident. How much I loved her. I suppose before the accident too. I would look over from my seat and look at her. She sat two seats away, but even then I could see her immaculate face perfectly. I starting thinking how I could never be with a girl like her and started to get depressed, not really caring about anything, except drawing. Drawing was the one thing that I was truly passionate about. I suppose it was good I kept it up, as it was the reason I got to know her. I was too shy to before to say anything to her, but she came to me.

I remember how surprised I was that she wanted to see my drawings. I happily gave them over, even if it didn't seem it. When I looked through her drawings, and I saw the image of me and her holding hands and there being a little heart, I knew she liked me too. I felt so happy, but I had to make sure what I was seeing was true so I asked her about it. That's when she got embarrassed and ran out. Ban, the bully of my class, threatened to beat me up if I didn't tell him what happened. That's when Tom ran out to comfort you. I could see you out of the window I sat next to. I saw him comfort you. I felt really bad, but I was too shy to do anything. I couldn't pick up the courage to do anything. So I didn't.

After the incident with the watch, I got more depressed. Then there was the accident with Tom. That destroyed me, but it also made me who I am today. When I cried on that rooftop, I wasn't only crying because of Tom's death, but because I was scared about how good that felt. It really scared me. I was scared for myself and for the safety of the girl I loved.

That's when we stuck together. Never left each other's side. She even moved closer to me in class. I was so happy, and I loved her more and more as each day passed. When it came to day I finally snapped and killed everyone, I saw her in he corner, so scared for her life. She was still beautiful. I went to kill her too, but that's when I found out that I couldn't kill her. All I felt was love. I couldn't stop myself, I had to kiss her. I walked over to her, I could feel her fear getting stronger and stronger. I lifted my mask and kissed her. I had wanted to do that for long and I loved every second of it. But I knew I couldn't stay long so I pulled away and ran off. I felt even more alive after that.

Once I ran from the school, I ran into the woods. I kept going until I started to black out. I stopped running and tried to stay awake but I couldn't, and I blacked out completely. When I woke up, I was on a couch. I sat up and looked around, and I saw this woman, completely in white. She was pale and had blonde hair and completely black eyes, she was also carrying a sword with a green gem in the middle of it. She called herself Judge Angel. I was confused of course but she supported me. She helped me through my conflicting times, and was my best friend throughout it all. I found out where (Y/N) lived and I needed to see her. I went to go, but Angel stopped me, saying that her parents wouldn't let me see her. I needed to see her so badly, that I decided that killing her parents was the only way to do so. Once I did that, I saw her again. I remember how amazing the first kiss felt, that I needed that feeling again, so I kissed her and it was even better than before. After that, I managed to find my way into her window, and I would be by her side all night, making sure no harm would come to her. Once I heard her start to wake up, I would give her a small kiss on the head and then jump out of the window, running into the woods as to not be seen.

As I remembered all of these things, I had to find a way to convince her to come back with me. I can't imagine my life without her. I decided to wake her and ask her to come with me.

I gently shook her shoulder and slowly her eyes opened, looking at me.

"What do want Helen?" She asked bluntly. I hurt slightly but she did just get woken up so I didn't blame her.

"Come back with me. Come live with me! I know we can be happy (Y/N), just trust me, please." I practically begged her,

"Why should I? You kill people, you killed everyone I knew. I know you promised no harm would come to me, but how can I be sure?" She spoke, still very tired.

"Please. I love you so much, and I need you in my life. Please... come back with me!"

~(Y/N) POV~

"Please. I love you so much, and I need you in my life. Please... come back with me!" He begged me. I rubbed some sleep from my eyes and thought about it.

Of course there is no guarantee he won't harm me, but what do I truly have to lose? I've lost everything and everyone, I suppose if I did get hurt or die, it's no big loss. Plus I did still love him, feelings like I had don't easily go away.

"Okay.... I'll come back with you." I smiled at him and he smiled wide. He went to kiss me and I follow suit, giving him a quick peck.

I get up and quickly pack some things, since I assumed I wasn't really gonna come back. I grabbed my bag, and then me and him left through my window again as to not get any attention from neighbours.

I followed him to his place. When we got there, there was this girl in white, who had blonde hair, black eyes and a sword.

"Who is this?" She asked bluntly.

"Angel, this is (Y/N)..." Helen looked a little ashamed when saying who I was.

"This is (Y/N)? Why isn't she dead? You went over to kill her right?" She spoke bluntly again.

"You were going to kill me Helen?!" I yell at him.

"His name is Painter." She piped up, correcting me.

"Frankly, I don't give a shit right now! I will call him whatever the fuck I want to call him!" I shouted at her.

"Language Timothy." She smirked.

"What did you just say to me?!" I stand up, getting ready to throw the fuck down, when Helen sat me down again and sent Angel away.

"Don't mind her, she's like that sometimes." Helen chuckled slightly.

"She's a bitch." I said bluntly.

"Anyway... I'm sorry." Helen looked sad again.

"Were you really coming to kill me Helen?" I asked.

"Yes. But I backed down. I couldn't do it. The lust for blood melts away whenever I see you." He explained.

"I suppose that has to be true, since I'm not dead." I giggled slightly.

"Haha yeah." Helen joined in.

"Sorry I was so mad, it was just the shock of it I suppose." I felt bad.

"It okay. Don't worry about it. You wanna watch some TV?" He asked me. I nodded and he smiled. We both sat on the couch and turned on the TV. My favourite show was on.

"Yes! Let's watch this!" I yell out, louder than I wanted it to.

"I've never heard of it." Helen looked confused. I fake gasped.

"We have to watch it now." I said, looking at Helen.

"If you insist." He chuckled lightly.

We heard Angel come back at one point, she must have gone out for a kill because she came in covered in blood. She looked over at the TV.

"What is this shit?" She spoke bluntly again.

"This is (Favourite TV show)." I smile saying it.

"It looks shit." She rolled her eyes, "You can't actually like this crap, right Painter?" She asked Helen.

"It's actually pretty funny." He admitted.

Angel didn't say anything else, she just left in a bit of a strop.

"What's her deal, is she always on her period or something?" I joked, and it made Helen laugh.
