Jim Moriarty x Reader 2

Chapter 41

Rage filled tears burned in your eyes as you saw the heart wrenching scene unfold in front of you. It wasn't fair. It wasn't bloody fair...

You stormed off, feeling completely overwhelmed with hatred and regret for basically... everything. You needed to get away and calm down... you wanted to murder something.

Jim's POV:

Jim watched as his Willy boy broke down, forcing his expression to remain blank. He knew the police were on their way, but they had a few minutes to spare before they'd be able to hear the sirens approaching.

So, jim went over to William, letting you have some time to yourself. You needed it, he could tell how upset you were. Besides, William seemed to need someone there for him right now. Jim examined the lifeless boy in his arms, coming to an immediate conclusion- suicide.

"..... it's my fault, isn't it." William breathed, holding Ty's head against his chest, refusing to let the kid go. Jim knew exactly what William was thinking- Ty had experienced severe depression in the past, and lost hope in William because his advances had been rejected too many times. Not only that, they wouldn't even let Ty come along to help, which could have led to him harbouring feelings of self resentment and not being good enough. Jim sighed, kneeling by the two, remaining silent in response to Williams question. Suicide.... had to be bloody suicide.

Or... was it?

Candace skipped up, kneeling by William in fake worry and sadness.

"Oh no-!! What happened, Will???" She asked, placing a hand on his bicep as if trying to pry her way in between him and his dead friend. William tensed up, jim noticed the absolute dread of having her there at this moment in Williams expression.

".... not now, Candy." William mumbled into Ty's curly hair, not pulling away from him. Candace was persistent, however.

"No, it's okay—! It's going to be okay, William, I'm here for you now!!! I'm all you need!!" Candy insisted, placing her fingers on Ty's chest and pushing downward, so William was forced to set him back on the ground. William froze up, before slowly standing. Candace stood as well, wrapping her arms around his waist to pull herself close to him. William stepped back from her embrace however, his eyes dark and full of hatred.

".... no. .... I can't deal with this right now. I'm sorry, Candy. We're done." William stated simply, jim watched as candy blinked repeatedly, staring at him a moment. Then she laughed, stepping forward and placing a hand on his face happily.

"Hah!! You're so funny, William!! You don't know what you're saying- you need me!!"

This time William shoved her away.

".... stay away from me." He growled, his voice low and full of hate. She stared at him, eyes wide for a moment as it clicked that he was really breaking up with her. So, she sniffed, twirling her hair with her fingers as she looked down at Ty.

".... I never liked him. Neither did you. .... you'll be thanking me, William. Soon enough, you'll realize the truth- all we need is each other~!!!!" The tone in her voice changed, to a higher pitch than before, sounding more ominous and demented.

"Get OUT of here, Candace!!" Williams snapped, Candy took a few steps backwards as she smiled at him.

"You'll see.... you'll see, I know you will... and my name is Candy, you know it is because you love me.. we love each other—~!!!"

Jim didn't know why he didn't shoot her right then and there. He bloody should have. But he was too busy lost in thought. So she killed Ty... but how did she manage to stage it perfectly to the point where it fooled even jim that it was a suicide? Even now, jim couldn't find any evidence against it... from what jim could tell of her, she was not a psychopath- she was a sociopath. Able to form attachments to a few people, however acting out recklessly and without thought, not hesitant or empathetic towards taking the lives of ones that she does not know. This is a messy approach, though. If this was purely her work, Ty would simply be dead- easily shown as a homicide. Unless.. she had help.

Damn it, of course. In providing Harvey with inside information on what jim and the rest were all doing, Harvey agreed to help Candace make certain William remained hers- in other words, helping her kill Ty in a way that kept her out of the picture completely- a perfectly timed, perfectly set up framed suicide. The cops would never think otherwise, they were too stupid. No wonder they didn't run into Harvey when they were with Alex... thanks to Candy, he would have known they left. So he made use of the time to come here and murder Ty. 

So, here they were. Jim standing beside a blank faced Marcus, both of them completely blank faced as they processed what was going on. You, stormed off to god knows where. William, who was now kneeling by Ty again, seemingly unable to accept that he was really dead.. and then there was Candy. Her eyes were lit up with jealous flames, piercing through William. Jim glared at her, not moving, knowing very well the truth. Even when Ty was dead, William still loved him more than he ever would Candy. He didn't doubt that deep down, she knew the same as well.

.... psychotic bitch.
