//TW: character death(s) , suicide

Sollux looked at the rotting building, and it gave him a bad feeling... He looked at the terrified Feferi, Aradia loved death so she was.. Well, grinning.

"Come on guy2...." Sollux managed to get the front metal door open, quietly slipping inside, the females following. Sollux was breathing kinda heavy, his heart was racing.

Laughter was echoing. Sollux went in that direction. Aradia pulled on his arm.

"S0llux! St0p! Y0u're g0nna die!" She had yelled it in a very quiet voice. Sollux ripped his arm away from her and kept walking.

Then Sollux heard a shattering scream. It was Eridans. Sollux was gonna run there till Aradia yanked him into a room, shut the door and locked it, Feferi was trying not to hyperventilate. Aradia had her hands over both their mouths. There were footsteps, and a whistling noise. Dave.

The three didn't know that Dave wasn't alone. He had another girl here, who could easily stop the three if needed.

"I still wonder.. Will he make it through the night?" Dave chuckled. It pissed Sollux off.

When the footsteps were gone, Sollux sneaked out and ran, he saw Eridan and almost ran to him till he saw a female. He quickly hid behind the wall, stuck to it. He made sure his shaky breath wouldn't be heard.

The female was laughing. "Aww poor Eridaaaaaaaan~" she smirked, and made him look at her.

Fuck. It's Vriska. The one who blackmailed me... Feferi and Aradia had followed Sollux.

Sollux looked around. He found a Nic cage poster. He ripped it off the wall, and there was some kind of keypad. But first he crumbled it up and threw it, hitting Vriska in the head. She ran out, but went the opposite direction. Stupid bitch.

-Sollux stared at the keypad. A message popped up, one Sollux knew the answer to. He typed in the number, and the shackles around Eridans wrists that were holding him released, he collapsed on the floor. Sollux rushed in, not noticing Dave anywhere... But he knew, and was watching.

"ED!" Sollux cupped his cheeks. Eridan was bruised, beaten, and terrified. He hugged Sollux extremely tightly.

"S-Sol!" Eridan was crying now. But this sweet moment was short lived by Sollux flying back and hitting the wall. Hard. Dave was standing there, in front of Eridan.

"I thought I told you. Eridan will die now." Daves red eyes stared at Sollux with no mercy. When he tried to move, Vriska held him to the wall easily.

"Nope." She smirked at him and traced his jawline, chuckling.

"No! Don't hurt hiim! Kiill me! Don't hurt Eriidan!" Sollux was pleading now, tears streaming.

"I fucking warned you!! I told you not to come looking!!" Dave snapped back.

Suddenly Vriska was on the floor, a sharp shard of glass lodged in her neck. She gurgled and choked on her blood, hands around her throat. Aradia then ripped the glass out, very pissed. She drove the glass into Vriskas chest, she emitted a gurgling pained almost scream. Aradia had blue blood spattered on herself. Even Dave was surprised, and Sollux took this opportunity to pin him to the wall with his Psionics.

Dave just smiled. "Aww Sol~" he mimicked Eridans voice.

"2top pulliing 2hiit!" Sollux was angry, but on the inside he was also terrified. He's never killed someone before. But apparently Aradia has, considering how she showed nothing but malice as she killed Vriska.

But Sollux was so terrified and angry that he wasn't focusing so his Psionic's were weak.

Dave took this opportunity, grabbed his knife in his pocket, raised it, and he hit.....

Dave hit skin. Sollux stumbled back away from him, he fell to the ground, the knife, was, well.

The knife was buried in his chest. And he was bleeding out.

Aradia simply attacked Dave and was literally beating him to death with her fists.

Eridan crawled over to Sollux, sobbing pretty hard. "S-Sollux. Don't l-leavve me.."

Sollux gave a small smile, the much he could do without causing pain. "D-Don't cry... II want two 2ee you 2miile, ED... II love you." Blood was pooling around him, as Eridan had Solluxs head on his leg.

Eridan gave a tiny smile, but he wasn't even feeling it. He started to cry again, but the small smile stayed. It would till he died. "I-I lovve you too, S-Sol..."

Sollux reached up with his bloodied hand and caressed his cheek. "IIm 2orry, e-ed..." Sollux was fading fast now.

"No no no, Sollux stay wwith me.. Oh god, Sollux! Sollux please!" Eridan was sobbing. Sollux brought his face down, and gave him a little kiss, with the energy he had left. Eridan kissed him back, till Solluxs head rested back on his leg.

"...II wanted two marry you 2omeday... II wanted two make your problem2 better... Thii2 ju2t make2 them wor2e, doe2nt iit..." Sollux was quiet in speaking. It was getting hard to get words out, and it started to hurt when speaking.

"No no. Sol.. You'vve made my life so much better." Eridans tears didn't stop.

"Heh.. That make2 iit ea2iier two diie... Don't forget that II love you. And ii'll be watchiing o...ver... Y..ou..." His words started trailing. Eridan knew he was dying and the tears rolled faster. He watched as his only love died right in his lap.

Sollux shut his eyes, and his breathing stopped.

"S-Sol...? Sollux? SOL! SOLLUX! WAKE UP!!" Eridan screamed at Sollux, getting no response. He screamed, until Sollux came back and told him it was all just a night mare. But deep down he knew that wouldn't happen.

Feferi and Aradia had to force Eridan out, literally dragging him by the arms. He sobbed and screamed. Eventually it was just sobbing.

They stopped at a café place and the two Females held Eridan as he broke down yet again.

"I-I wwas t-too l-late..." Eridan kept crying.

The girls frowned. "There wasn't a l0t you could do.."

"-Eri, it wasn't your fault."

"Wwell it sure fuckin feels like it!!" Eridan screeched at them both.

Feferi and Aradia exchanged glances...

The two girls left Eridan alone in his home after taking him home.

"Um.. Is Dave dead...?" Feferi asked when they were walking away from Eridans.

"Well... I kinda made his face int0 mush." Aradia sheepishly smiled.

"Remind me to never get on your bad side," Feferi replied, and Aradia giggled.

~after a year

Eridan was still upset about Sollux, but he wouldn't break as viscously as last time. He was looking at a photo of Sollux.

"I lovve you... Evven if you can't hear me... I wwant you to knoww... That II love evverythin about you.." Eridan smiled at the photo, tears rolling. He held it to his chest. "I lovve you." He whispered.

Earlier Eridan had taken pills. More than the safe amount. They were kicking in. He couldn't live without Sollux anymore.

Eridan smiled, tears on his face. "I'll sea you soon, Sol... Then wwe can hold each other... Wwe can talk in that time.." He smiled, looking at the photo. "Wwe.. Havve eternity after all..."

Then Eridan shut his eyes, and fell asleep forever.

He met Sollux in the after life, when back in the living room Feferi was flipping out. Seeing his cold dead body made her break and start to sob.

Eridan and Sollux held hands, both smiling, but both dead. Eridans perfectly fine with that, so is Sollux.
