I'm in Love with my Bully

The Attempted Suicide

Third Person POV:

Sonic walked home after a long, torturous day of school.

Both of his siblings were out of high school already, so he didn't have to walk with Sonia anymore, thankfully.

He sighed. He didn't really want to go home, so he went to his favorite clearing in the woods to do his homework and plan on where exactly he would drown himself the next day.

Sonic really liked to clear his head in this clearing and he wasn't afraid to show his face or to roll up his sleeves here. He knew that no one knew where this clearing was and wouldn't care to try to look for him here.

He sat down under a tree, put his hood down, rolled up his sleeves and pulled out a knife from his hoodie pocket. Then he proceeded to give himself three cuts on each arm. He was immune to the pain now.

When thought of Shadow, he started crying. He remembered a promise that he had given to Shadow. He had promised not to hurt himself anymore. But as soon as Shadow had broken up with him, he started cutting himself even more than before. He also was getting more suicidal thoughts.

But there was one thing Sonic didn't understand.

Why did he still love him? Shadow is his bully now. But he still loves him.

He knew exactly where to drown himself.

*Time skip to when he commits suicide, because I am too lazy to come up with anything between*

Shadow's POV:

I was probably too harsh on Sonic yesterday. I don't want him to kill himself.

I mean, it's not like I don't love him anymore. In fact, I love him more than anything in this world. The only reason I broke up with him was because my friends said he cheated on me. And I believe them.

Do I have proof? No. But it's not so far fetched as to think he might have cheated with a person not as popular. He was scared of the popular crowd.

I've probably made that fear worse by bullying him. When I used to be his lover.

Sonic has been acting weird today. He didn't beg us to stop when we beat him up this morning.

I think I'll follow him today.

Sonic's POV:

I'm going to drown myself in the lake that has the cliff over it. The one that Shadow and I used to come to all the time to cuddle and watch the stars.

He loved me so much back then. And I loved him. What happened to us?

After school I went to that lake. I don't care if Shadow sees me. If he feels guilty, then he should've thought about what he said yesterday.

I walk to the edge of the cliff and said, "Shadow, if you're here, I want you to know that this is your fault. If you feel guilty, then you should've thought about what you said yesterday. You should've thought about about how you broke my heart when you broke up with me. Sayonara, Shadow the hedgehog. You should know that I still love you."

Then I took a few steps back so I can run and then jump.

But I felt a pair of arms wrap around me before I could even begin to run.

"Please don't, Sonic. I still love you too," a familiar voice whispered in my ear.

I looked up at him with tears in my eyes.

"S-shadow?"
