It was like red ribbons streaming down my arms. The pain all washed away with the tide. How many pills is enough to make me never wake. How can no one see such a simple thing, or do they see it but just ignore. I want to ignore that voice in my head.
So this is going to be mostly in Lance's head inside the healing pod. Also credit to all the art in this chapter because I will be using a lot. —————————————————————————————————————
I breathed in. The sent of lavender crisp on the air. I blinked at glowing sun that cast shadows on me. I didn't want to move, what was even the point I should be dead but something didn't make sense, the last think I could remember was the moon shining through the water as I closed my eyes. I breathed again. And if I drowned then how can I still breath.
"LANCE"
I sat up at the flew to my feet making my head spin.
My rose coloured boy sprinted to me. His arms outstretched and his eyes flashing.
"K-Keith" I stuttered but then the world went black.
———————————-
Why did I say Keith, my red boy isn't Keith.
He took my hand and smiled sweetly. "It so wonderful to have you back" he whispered and spun me around. How can I be so miserable in the real world but still feel this Immense joy here.
"Sooo where to you want to go" my rosey boy questioned. "Umm I don't know this place well so you can lead the way" I placed my hand back into his. We ran through the purple fields, my red boy's cute giggles lit up the landscape like no sun ever could.
We came to what must have been a cliff because the purple dropped off into nothing. White clouds sprawled over the blue sky like a painters work. My red boy turned and flopped onto the ledge. I laughed and sat next to him.

"I-I don't know" I said and ripped my eyes away from his. "Lance don't lie, you do know but you won't tell me". More silence. "Please" his tone was pleading like a small puppies. What else could I do but answer.
"It's just........well...it nice coming here, I get to be away from everything else and just relax and I feel like I can trust you my rosey boy." All of this came at once and I could feel the tears welling up.
"Lance please, why why why did you try and kill yourself, was it something I did"
Those words sharply cut to my core and the black started to swim at the edges of my vision. That voice wasn't my red boy and the sound was like it was coming from outside. Like it was fighting through many layers of glass. That's voice was Shiro's.
"It's no it's not your fault please, I just wanted to make you happier" my red boy was flying away and the black ink was painting over my vision. It swarmed like bees as I cried out reaching for Shiro's hand. Then.......
