MUTE (Ghost Hunt FanFic)

The Cursed House

I kneeled down next to Naru as he coughed violently. He grabbed onto my arm and my sleeve went up. My eyes widened as I remembered the thin scars that stained my wrists. He looked up at me and then slowly turned to look at my wrist. I tried to pull away from him but his grip tightened as he looked at the white lines. He sighed and I cleared my throat. "Come on. Are you alright?" I asked urgently as I helped him up. He grabbed his chest in pain and I immediately held him steady. He wouldn't look at me and I felt sad but he needed help. "I'm fine" he said and tried to walk but ended gasping for air as he grabbed his chest again. I placed one hand over his heart and felt the fast pace it was in. "You need to rest" I said as I started to help him walk. He desperately tried to disagree but everyone knew he needed rest. He sighed as he sat on his bed. "Do you need anything before I leave?" I asked as he laid down. "Yes. Come here" I walked up to him and sat beside him. He smirked. 'Crap! not a smirk!" I thought as he motioned with his finger for me to lean down toward him. I did so and he leaned up roughly press his lips to mine. I kissed back and he grabbed my wrist and pulled me to sit on his lap as he sat up. "You wanna tell me about this" he said in a rough whisper in my ear. I shivered at his voice and shook my head no. "Not really"

"Emmy" he warned. I kept my head down.

"Emelia!" I sighed and looked up at him. He pleaded with his eyes and I gave in. "It was after Karoda had said those things to me. I just was overthinking that's all! I only did it once but after that I guess I just got addicted to it"

He didn't say anything as I explained. When I finished, he kissed my cheek lightly and sighed again. "You need to stop. And if you don't, I'll break up with you" my eyes widened and I nodded. I got off of the floor and he immediately fell asleep. I replayed his words in my head as I started to drift asleep in a guest room. I felt awful. The disappointment in his eyes was a worse pain then the razor on my skin. I finally let sleep takeover me and was pulled into a world of darkness.
