Devil's Gambit

(Y/n): Emma... I should have known.

The said girl stood next to Spirit.

Emma: Could you leave the door open?

Spirit: You don't have much time to talk. I tried, but you only have a few minutes. 

Emma: Thank you for trying Spirit.

Spirit nodded and walked down the corridor. Emma turned back to you with a solemn look gracing her features. she slowly approached you and kneeled in front of you. Her gaze dropped to the concrete floor as she dipped her finger into a drop of blood that must not have dried entirely on your clothes.

Emma: (Y/n)...

(Y/n): Why are you here?

Emma was taken back by your response. She wiped the blood on the concrete smudging it.

Emma: I wanted to see you.

(Y/n): Why? I have no information to share, no reason to tell DWMA anything even if I did, and the emotional approach isn't gonna work on me.

Emma: Why did this happen to you?

(Y/n): I was shown a world outside DWMA. An imperfect world filled with corruption and insanity. A world of truth rather than the lies Death tells us. A wor-

You looked up to see Emma shaking. Your voice died in your throat as you witnessed Emma begin to break down.

Emma: Was this my fault? I don't know they told you lies, but did my death do this?

(Y/n): Emma-

Emma: I'm sorry!

Emma was close to sobbing. Apparently, the emotional approach does work. You tried to give her a comfort your words couldn't provide, but your arms were chained to the wall behind you.

Emma: W-What can I do?!

(Y/n): Emma...

Emma clutched your bloodied shirt tightly.

Emma: What can I do to fix this?! Fix us?!

(Y/n): Emma.

She brought her gaze up and met yours.

(Y/n): There is something you can do for me...

Emma: W-What is it?

You paused before taking in a breath.

(Y/n): Hate me.

Emma: Wha-

(Y/n): Hate me. Hurt me. Stop being so patient with me. Just forget about me!

Emma: No!

Emma sobbed as she pressed her face deep into your chest. Your heart ached in your chest. You never wanted to make Emma cry again and here you are. Emma brought her head up and pressed her forehead against yours.

Emma: P-Please don't say that! 

(Y/n): I'm not good enough for you. I cause you nothing but pain! Hate me!

Emma: No!

(Y/n): Why?! Why do you keep putting up with me?!

Emma: Because I love you d***it!

Emma hastily pressed her lips to yours. You were surprised for two reasons. Emma confessed her love to you and this was the first time you ever heard her curse. Emma poured love into the kiss trying to find some instance of you reciprocating as she gripped your cheeks. You closed your eyes and returned the kiss but... you were conflicted. You cared for Emma deeply, but what of the other girls? They had all found a place in your heart along the way since Emma's faked death. Emma pulled away from the kiss and took deep breaths from the kiss and crying. Your cheeks were wet with tears that weren't your own or... were they yours? You couldn't tell anymore.
