Id rather drown

If I jump for a moment I'll fly, I'll close my eyes and say goodbye. I just can't fight or see the light. I'm sorry mom but I won't make it home tonight.

I stormed away from Anti to my room and ignored him calling for me after slamming the door in his face.
But after a minute or two of him knocking I heard dark say something and for awhile it was quiet until I heard a soft knock at the door. "Ellie hey it's dark. Can I please come in." He asked kindly and quite. I didn't say anything because I wasn't in the mood to talk.
So I just thought 'yes I honestly dont wanna be alone.' And he came in.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" He asked sitting next to me. I remained silent and made sure to keep my mind black so he couldn't try to communicate at all.

"Ellie please try to forgive him, things have been going so well lately and I want it to stay that way for us." He said rubbing my back as I hunched over between annoyance and sadness.

I didn't know what to do, I didn't know what to say and I definitely didn't want to be in this house anymore.
"Ellie please just say something." Dark persisted with annoyance clear in his voice. "Why me?" I asked not even really knowing what I meant. "What?" He questioned causing me to think deeper into my question.

"Why could he let me be killed by that psycho and picked the next girl that cam along." I said feeling tears spring to my eyes. Dark shook his head and said "I don't know, but I'm glad he picked you." Then kissed me in the head and left me alone.

I was sitting on the couch watching some tv when Anti walked in from outside. As soon as I saw him I turned off the tv and started to walk upstairs without a word. "ELLIE!" He shouted making me stop and look at him almost sacred. "I don't know why your so mad I saved you didn't I?" He said sounding annoyed confused and angry.
"From danger you put me in" I snapped back before I could stop myself. "And whose to say you won't do it again." I continued making antis angry look fade to concern.

"Ellie I would never hurt you like that again, and if anyone ever tried to lay a hand on you I'd rip their head off." He said walking closer to me and met me at the stairs. He tried to pull me into a hug but the moment he touched me I cowered back in fear. His eyes filled with hurt and he looked down to the point that his bangs covered his eyes.
I can't describe what I felt in that moment the energy around me turned to a scary feeling of danger and even though Anti stayed quiet and everything was still it felt like there was a thousand things happening around us. The floor boards creaked and the wind outside blew wildly and my heart began to beat rapidly.

Then antis voice came through stopping all the commotion at once. "You should go get some sleep Ellie." But his voice wasn't soft and clear like it always was when he spoke to me. It was raspy and rough surprising me and scaring me. I listened and went to bed.

Did I do something wrong?
