Pain (Danti) UNDER EDITING

Chapter 36

Strong arms pulled me close to a warm body. Lips pressed against my cheek leaving a tingly sensation. I turned around to see Dark staring at me with. 

"Good morning sleepy head," He chirped. I smiled nuzzling into his shirtless chest. We continued to lay like that until a knock was heard from the door. Itch peaked his head into the room. His face was tear streaked, underneath his eyes were all puffy and red. 

"Mrs. Fischbach wants you to come downstairs," Itch said. Dark nodded standing up from the bed. The door closed leaving us alone. Dark and I wandered down to the living room where Vicky and Mr. Fischbach sat. Mr. Fischbach sat a far distance away from Vicky and avoided looking at us. I sat next to Dark while Itch sat in front of us. From the looks of it, Itch already knew what was going to happen.

"We have some bad news," Vicky sniffled. Now that I looked at her tears cascaded from her eyes, dripping to the floor. 

"We aren't doing this to hurt you Dark, I swear. This was a decision that we came to due to we aren't happy anymore. Your mother and I have decided to get divorced. The papers are already signed, and we don't plan on changing our mind anytime soon." Mr. Fischbach said. He avoided eye contact with any of us. Dark burrowed his head in my shoulder, my shoulder started to get damp. Even myself was getting teary eyed. 

"What's going to happen now?" My voice squeaked out. 

"I'm going to stay in this house but Mr. Fischbach plans on moving across town. Dark is staying with me until he turns 18." Vicky spoke. Her voice cracking from the tears. Small sobs came from Dark making me feel awful. I turned my body so I was facing Dark. He lifted his head slightly letting me see his puffy eyes and tear stricken face. A small sob came from him echoing in the small room. I pulled him to me letting him cry. Mr. Fischbach stood up and walked upstairs. Vicky stood up as well but went into the kitchen. Itch slowly made his way to his room leaving Dark and me alone. 

The rest of the day consisted of Dark crying and me trying to comfort him. Itch would come in and help me but nothing would work. Mr. Fischbach left hours ago with boxes of his things. He didn't even say goodbye which broke Dark's, heart. From what I saw Dark looked up to his father. I wouldn't be surprised if he worshiped him. After I came to live in the house their relationship was tense. Mr. Fischbach would avoid us and just stay up in this room. I guess he didn't like me very much. 

A sob came from Dark, again. We were curled up in his bed just cuddling. Whenever he cried his grip would get tighter but I didn't mind. He pulled me close to him and started to sob into my chest. Someone, please fix this boy.
