TW: Su!c!d3, break downs, hair pulling

It was in the afternoon when Xisuma and Impulse announced that they were going to have another vacation in the cabin they built last month. It was in a spruce biome with snow and it was 3 floors tall, built near a cliff.

Grian heard his communicator go off as he grabbed it and sighed.
——-
Iskall85: again? Yay!
Mumbo Jumbo: I'm not doing your dishes again.
ImpulseSV: It's tomorrow so pack up!
Grian: Tomorrow?! Impulse it's 3 am! I won't have enough time to pack !!
ImpulseSV: You better pack up because we're staying at the cabin for 2 weeks Gri!
Grian: SKAJSJSHWGHAVWJWBZ

Grian packed up his bag, only bringing spare clothes, a toothbrush and toothpaste, and a blanket.
He flew over the coordinates and met up with Mumbo and Iskall before going in.
"Hey, Iskall! Hey mumbo! How are you doing?" Grian greeted.
"Pretty good, just waiting for what rooms we're going to be assigned," Mumbo said.
"Oh right! They're making the first floor the living room and the kitchen, the second floor is the storage and the third is the rooms." Iskall informed.
Once they got assigned their rooms they walked inside and unpacked. Grian had to bunk with Doc but didn't know him much so it was pretty awkward, considering he was his enemy in season 6. Doc went to eat dinner but was pretty concerned but shook it off and just thought Grian wasn't hungry but for the next 5 days, Grian didn't eat, sleep or leave his room so he spoke up about this.
"Grian?"
"Yea doc? You need something?"
Grian sounded tired and he looked like he just woke up with his messy hair and dark eye bags.
"Do you... are you okay? You haven't been eating since we got here neither have you left your room."
"Oh, I'm just not hungry.., no need to worry!" Grian sounded cheerful and full of joy but Doc took none of it.
"Grian I know something's wrong."
The builder felt his heart drop but ignored it.
"Nothings wrong doc, just.. don't feel like eating right now."
"Okay, I'll be in the shower, call me if you need anything."
"Okay, see ya doc!"
As Doc left the room, Grian sighed then looked at his trembling hands. He knew he couldn't take it anymore, he cried, curled up in a ball while pulling his hair in frustration. Grian grabbed his bag, looking for a sharp object, anything that will make this stop. The builder found nothing he just huddled up in the corner, overwhelmed with stress. He felt hot around his shoulders as it started to rain. He bit his nails, anxious and paranoid, looking around the room for anything that could help him. Soon his throat closed as his breathing became more erratic, he felt dizzy as he was about to fall and faint. "doc... help..," Grian groaned, getting up and looking for anything to help him. Grian looked out the balcony and remembered he was near the cliffside so even though the cabin was only 3 floors he could still die from the depth under the cliff.
He took a breath in and a breath out as the wind blew his tears away. Grian knew he was scared but if he doesn't leave now then he'll never getaway. The hermit cloned over the fence and hung over the edge, knowing this was it.

Grian hunched over with his hand still grabbing the railing. "I can't... I'm so..so.. scared..." Grian trembled. Doc opened the door with his clothes on but his hair was still wet as he dried it with a towel. He saw Grian hanging over the balcony, crying and trembling. Doc dropped the towel and hugged him through the rails. "Grian please stay.. don't do this to yourself!" Doc yelled, texting Xisuma to come over. "It's okay doc.. I already tried. I'm too m-much.. too much of a wimp to do it."
"You're not a wimp Gri. Now c'mon, let's get you to safety." Doc carried him over and went back inside then placed him on his bed. Grian didn't let go of Doc's arm as he fell asleep.
Xisuma barged through the door. "Where's Grian!? Is he okay!?" Xisuma yelled. "Shhh!! He's sleeping right now!" Doc whispered, signaling to the small hermit, pulling on his arm.
"My bad." Xisuma closed the door behind him and talked to Doc.

Grian woke up and head Doc and Xisuma talking next to him.
"Xisuma..? Doc?" Grian yawned, getting up. "Grian, you've been asked for 2 days, you doing alright?" Xisuma said. "Yea, why are you guys here exactly?"
"You don't remember?"
"Remember what?"
Xisuma looked at doc, concerned but knew what they needed to do.
"Nothing." They both replied.
"You should get more sleep but make sure to come get breakfast soon alright Gri?" Doc said, leaving the room with Xisuma.
Grian went back to sleep and still didn't go eat.
Doc went into the room he shared with Grian and sat next to him with a plate of food in his hand.
"Doc? What are you doing on my bed?"
"Feeding you because you won't eat." Doc said, forcing a spoon of rice in Grian's mouth. Grian ate it cause he didn't want to spit it out since it was already in his mouth but he was confused about why he did that. "Hey! I'm not a child, I can eat by myself."
"If I don't do this, you won't eat."
"Liar! I will eat, I'm not a brat!"
Doc placed the plate in Grian's hands.
"Eat it"
"Okay, maybe I am a brat.." Grian chuckled.
"See that's why I need to feed you myself."
"I'm not hungry doc stop it!"
Doc sighed as he put away the plate. "Okay, Gri. But you need to eat soon okay. You haven't been eating this whole trip."
"I got it doc!"
Doc left the room. Grian instantly started crying as he left. He felt like he's gained a thousand pounds. Grian curled up in the corner, scratching his wrists till they bled red. He soon realized that this overwhelming pain and stress combo felt familiar to him but this was the first time he's felt like this right? Grian pulled his hair in frustration, trying to remember what happened before he woke up. He slapped himself, punched himself until he made bruises, and even started crying tears of blood. He gave up on remembering and just sad on his bed, crying. Xisuma heard the crying from his room and rushed over. He saw the horrid sight amongst his eyes. A shudder went through his skin as he rushed to check the hermit's pulse. Grian's eyes were closed but his pulse was still pulsing. "Grian stop doing this to yourself for fucks sake..." Xisuma said. Hugging Grian then treating his bruises and scratches.
"Xisuma..." The weak hermit mumbled, trying to not let out a tear.
"Yes, Grian?" Xisuma said, sitting next to him, making sure he doesn't break down.
"d-does fear ever leave your brain.." Grian's voice was trembling. He sounded like he was about to cry.
"Why are you asking this Gri?" Xisuma said, worried about him.
"just.. w-want to know just in case I want to.. fall asleep and n-never.. never come back.."
"Oh G, everything will be okay soon got it?" Xisuma said, hugging Grian.
"promise X?"
"I promise. "
Xisuma and doc slept next to Grian and they became best friends. Grian soon became better and more cheerful but who knows what will happen next?
