*King P.O.V*

"YOU'RE NOT GOOD ENOUGH"
"EVERYONE HATES YOU"
"YOU SHOULD GO DIE!"

"N-no...please stop! I'm not like t-that!"

No matter how hard I try, the voices didn't seem to want to leave me alone. It had only been a few days before this one when I began hearing strange voices inside my head and ever since, they wouldn't stop pestering me causing  me to enter an "emotionless" state whenever I was around the other sins.
At this point in time, I'm  on the verge of loosing it; the voices have gone on long enough.

"GET THE BLADE"
"USE IT ON YOURSELF!"

I dash towards my cabinet and flung the doors open, frantically scrambling trying to find my sharp tool.

"FASTER YOU FOOL! FASTER!"

Tears began forming in my eyes as soon as I set eyes on the blade, it still had the dried up blood on it from the last time I used it but at this point I didn't care. I hesitantly grabbed the blade and made a slicing motion, forcing a huge gash to appear in his arm, I scream as it gets deeper.

*End P.O.V*

It go to the point where his fragile self couldn't handle it and collapsed. Now on the floor, blooding spilling out of my arm, King lay unconscious.

*Ban P.O.V*

We heard a thud coming from mine and King's bedroom.

Ban: "What on Earth is he doing?" I mumble.

Meliodas: "I don't know, maybe you should go check on him, Ban."

Ban: "Yeah, yeah, alright..."

Tired AF, I slump up the stairs towards our room and press against the door handle, what I found next was indescribable.

"KING?!" I yell in utter shock

I dash towards him and glare at his arms.
"He couldn't have been...Could he?"

Afraid of hurting the small fairy even more, I gently pull out the metal blade forcing a large gasp from King which also managed to wake him up.
He breathes heavily and then looks up at me with a sunken expression before he flings himself towards me and hugs my chest. I blush at the sudden contact and stroke his head.

"Hey, everything's ok, you're okay."

Instead of calming down he begins to sob and burrows himself deeper into my chest.

"W-what if...it's n-not..."

I pause. I try pull King away from me but the guy has a strong grip and doesn't let go.

"No, please, a little longer"

Without hesitation, I nod in agreement and grab his hands causing a small peep to come out of him. I open his clenched fists and intertwine them with mine. Expecting him to do something, I brace for impact but instead he falls asleep. I smile.
I picked King up,  placed him on my bed and bandaged his arms up. I then take off his hoodie and lay down next to him. I would have a lot to talk about...

Mini Time Skip

*King's Dreaming P.O.V*

I look up at the burgundy red sunset and sigh, I knew that I had broken down in front of Ban and I was afraid to wake up and see his reaction. I could already see it, he would be laughing at me and then tell the whole crew. I would be embarrassed and forced to leave and then to die alone as I froze in the wilderness...
Wait a minute, what am I thinking?! Why would they do that?! They wouldn't, would they?

*End P.O.V*

King sighed and tried to relax for as long as he could before a looming figure crept from across the horizon.

*King P.O.V*

I look up and see Ban making his way towards me. I sit up and wave at him in order to get his attention but he walks past me like I don't exist. I hang my head in hurt until I feel a light tap on my shoulder. I spin around to see who tapped me and saw Ban staring at me.

"B-ban? What's going on?" I blurted out.

I look towards him waiting for an answer but instead get a chilling smile which sent shivers down my spine.

"B-ban? Are you oka-"

Ban dashed towards me and stuck a blade through my stomach, I gagged as I coughed up the blood and spat it out, he then released the blade causing a stream of blood to flow out of me. I fell to the floor and screamed in pain as I heard his final words.

"Goodnight Harlequin~
Sleep tight~"

*Ban P.O.V*

I stare at King as he shifts around in his sleep, it's like he's trying to get away from something or someONE.
I lightly tap his forehead and try wake him up, after all, I can't have the Fairy King getting worked up because of a bad dream.
He isn't waking up, instead he's rapidly shaking and mumbling something.
I gently position my head near his lips and hear him say:

"Ban, please, no- please! Stop! It hurts! Why are you hurting m-"

He then breaks into a series of sobs which set me off.
I begin shaking him slightly and he wakes up.

"BAN PLEASE NO!"

*King P.O.V*

"BAN PLEASE NO!"

I can't see, my tears are filling my eyes and everything's blurry. Was it just a dream? Thank goodness! I really thought he-
I pause in thought and wipe my eyes and sigh, I've REALLY had enough of this.
I was about to lay down again when I notice a long, slender figure sat in front of me. I look up and see Ban, worry on his face.

"You okay King?" He asks.

"Y-yeah just a bad dream..."

"You sure? It looked worse than just 'a bad dream'"

"Well, I'm fine now so I don't really need your help!"

"Geez okay then, sorry for trying to help..."

Ban slumps back down in his bed and falls asleep. I proceed to do the same until I notice that I'm not in my hammock. I stare at Ban and notice that he's also looking at me, my face blushes a shade of crimson as I retreat to go lay in my hammock. I get in and face Ban so that I can keep an eye on him. Of course like always he smiles and then winks at me. Still blushing, I hide my face and go to sleep.

"Geez, it's been a long night..."
