It was the early morning and yet another note came for Envy. He took it and read it quickly, hoping you'd stay asleep. He scanned the note, muttering it aloud as he read it.

"Monsters like you will never change and I'm going to prove that." At the bottom of the note, it read "You murderer."

...

You woke up to the radio playing, Envy listening intently. You stared at him, confused.

"Dude. Why are you so interested in the radio?" You asked and yawned. Envy ignored you and kept listening as the news droned on. In his mind, he was praying the note was wrong. It kept going. You shrugged your shoulders and got up to make food. You figured Envy deserved a little treat so you started making his favorite breakfast. Chocolate chip pancakes and waffles.

Then it was made. The announcement. One of the missing persons was found...dead. You froze and looked over at Envy. He seemed to be muttering something as he held his head in his hands, stressed. You walked over once you finished breakfast and put a hand on his shoulder.

"AAAAH!!" Envy yelled and jumped. You screamed and jumped back, bumping into a lamp and knocking it over. "Sorry sorry sorry!" Envy said. "I was lost in thought and you startled me!"

You sighed and set the lamp up. "Envy, why were you listening to the radio? Why did you seem so stressed after the announcement of the body being found? Are you worried?"

"Yeah, I'm worried. Whoever killed that person, I don't want them to get their hands on you and kill you." He got up and pulled you into an embrace then gave you a quick and loving kiss. "I don't want you to be harmed. I love you."

You sighed. "I love you too."

...

After breakfast, you got ready for work. Envy insisted on walking with you to work. You didn't put up a fight and just let him walk with you. On the way to work, you noticed people were staring and whispering a lot more than usual about Envy. They stared at him and glared way more than usual. It bothered you. These weren't the normal glares. It felt like some fire and hatred had been awoken in them...like Envy had done something wrong. You looked at your boyfriend. He didn't seem to notice, but you could see some worry in his eyes. Where did Envy go whenever he disappeared? And what the hell was he doing? Was whatever he was doing the cause of the increased hatred? You looked down, puzzled and actually a bit hurt. He was keeping secrets from you and you were dying to know what the truth was. But...maybe you might never know. You took a glance at him. Envy seemed so distracted especially lately. What was he hiding?
