No More Tears, Baby

Rune?

I'm probably not gonna have a 2nd part for this unless the inspiration blesses me one day. If you like it, pray for that day.

I tore open the bathroom door, hurriedly walking to the sink. Tears are streaming down my face, stinging my eyes so I couldn't see correctly. I rolled up my hoodie's purple sleeves and scrambled to find the razor. I didn't care that it hurt. I didn't care if it burned. I'll never be perfect. I'll never be able to stop. Maybe I should just die. All the thoughts were rolling around in my head.

"Rune?" I heard. It was already too late. Blood was already dripping from my cut. I hurriedly hid the razor and covered my arm.

"Rune? Open the door."

"Go away, you've done enough!"

"No. I'm going to be here until I know you are okay," Her voice cracked above her regular tone.

"Davina. I told you. I'm fine."

"No, you're not!" She yelled. "I know you're not just let me help you!" I walked over to the semi-transparent door.

"Davina."

"Let me in Rune." I could see her plead at the door through the glass. "I won't forgive you if you don't." Unwillingly, I opened the door. She already had a bandage ready.

"I knew what you were doing, Rune. I love you too much for you to be doing that, darling." I look at her, she is focused on covering my wound. I look away again, not wanting to meet her eyes.

"How long have you known?" I said, actually relieved that someone has found out.

"A long time now. Since I met you, back in 8th grade. Sitting alone, by yourself, wearing a hoodie even though it's 80 degrees outside." She drew a sad smile. "I couldn't stand a beauty like yourself doing as so. " She had finished bandaging.

"...So... you cared since that day." She looked away for a moment.

"Before then." She tried to meet my eyes, which were still pointed away. I look at her, her small eyes of green being bright as ever.

"Why... Why exactly did...did you care?" She shook her head.

"I wanted to be your friend. I wanted to be your person." She rolled up her sleeves and scars, that must've been years old showed.

"Rune. You make me happy. I just want to be that person to you." She embraced me tightly, her warmth reaching to my soul. I don't move. I'm afraid if I do so, she will suffocate me with a tighter squeeze.

"Davina," Tears again started rolling down my face. "Why are you so nice? You're strong, you're beautiful, you're the best person in the world. You're out of my league. You deserve more than a depressed hoodie girl, " She loosens her embrace and lifts my face with her hand.

"Darling, you think I deserve more? I want you. I want your hugs and the beat of your heart. I want your rambling that makes no sense." She smiles, her cheeks reflecting the light, "You are all I want. Nothing but you."
