Flowers For a Loved One (Yandere Boy)

Chapter 22

For a moment I thought to myself, if Hitoshi really loves me and this is how he shows it.

Who am I to tell him he's wrong for that?

All he's ever done is for me, back then and now. A love so powerful that he's sacrificed everything to be with me. A love that's consumed by madness, I wish I could see past all of his insanity. To forget the darkness that consumes him, to forgive him for all he's done to me and for me.

Before I knew all of this, and remembered who he was. I actually felt myself falling in love with him or so I think, he saved me from the darkness that was my father and the darkness of Akiyama the night of karaoke. He's never asked me to do anything I don't want too and holds himself back if i'm uncomfortable.

I wish I could see past all of it and give him the chance that he wants but right now as he holds me down to the ground, screaming in my face how much he loves me. I can't see him the same as I did before I knew who he really was. I wish i never opened that door to that room and seen what was inside, we might have been a happy couple if it was like that.

"I think we should break up" I muttered looking away from him. I could see the look of pain in his eyes as the words I said had shattered his heart. The tears began to steam like an endless waterfall from his eyes, some landing on my face and others dripping down to his neck.

"You don't mean that!" He yelled "Say you won't leave me!"

I didn't speak because nothing I could say would fix the pain i've caused him. It became so dark and morbid, I felt as I couldn't breath. I just wanted to be by myself right now, to breath fresh air and have the light touch my face.

"Say it!" he yelled.

"I-I w-won't, I won't leave" I stuttered as tears ran down my face. I'm stuck here with him forever, my life will be filled with darkness till my last breath. I could just feel the darkness as it wants to consume me, the last bit of light within me dying out. I have no more options left, he's caught me every time I want to leave.

Should I just accept my fate?

As I was deep in thought Hitoshi pulled me closer to him so our faces were inches apart, staring into my lips. "I love you, Alice" he whispered before pulling me into a kiss. As our lips met, I did not kiss back but slowly I felt myself give in and accept the darkness.

Maybe it's better this way.

"Tell me you love me" he said as he pulled away from the kiss "Even if you don't mean it".

"I-I L-Love—-" there was a knock on the door that cut me off. My eyes light up instantly but Hitoshi quickly covered my mouth. The knocking continued as it got more intense. My eyes began to water thinking of the person on the other side,  please come save me.

"Alice! It's me" a familiar voice yelled from outside, it sounded like Mai.

I could feel myself smile within Hitoshi's palm, he glared into my eyes. I could see him filled with anger "If you scream i'll kill her" he muttered coldly. My eyes widened in shock as my heart shattered, is he that consumed the darkness in his heart.

Is willing to kill someone just to be with me?

Hitoshi stood from the ground after he composed himself, his hair covering his eyes. "I won't let you leave me ever again" he muttered under his breath as he pummeled his fist.

He left the second room, locking it behind him. I hurriedly crawled towards the door putting my head up against it trying to listen to what was happening. I wanted to scream and let Mai know I was here but I didn't want Hitoshi to hurt her.

For my sake, nobody should ever get hurt.

I could hear the front door open as Mai's knocking stopped. "Where's Alice?" I heard Mai ask Hitoshi.

"She's abroad in the states" he lied.

"That's a lie! She called me" Mai insisted.

"She's not here" Hitoshi responded coldly.

"Alice! Alice scream if you can hear me" Mai yelled and as much as I wanted to yell, I covered my mouth holding myself back as the tears streamed down my face.

It felt as I was so close to freedom but so far from it. "See, you can go now" Hitoshi told Mai as she began to leave her footsteps becoming fainter and the front door closing behind her. I crawled away from the door, still holding my mouth as I cried in pain.

The door of the room opened and I could hear Hitoshi walk in as he picked me up bridal style. I cried into his chest as he carried me.

"Don't you see, Alice" he whispered to me as he walked us over to the bedroom "You can't escape me".

Hitoshi laid me on the bed before kneeling beside me on the floor. "We're meant to be together I know it" he whispered in my ear. I gulped afraid of him now, every word he said brought me fear no matter his intentions behind it.

"After all these years, we always end up in each other's life" he continued "I'll always find  you"

The tears continued to stream down my cheek. I felt so hopelessly alone and condemned, all I want is to see the light one more time before the darkness finally consumes me.

Hitoshi stood up from the ground exiting the room closing the door behind him. I turned over on the bed grabbing a pillow and hugging it tightly. I felt so distraught as I thought about Hitoshi, I wanted to see a light in him like I did before but it wasn't like that anymore.

A little while after, Hitoshi came back into the room with a cup in his hand. "Drink this, Alice" he said as he held the cup towards me, I sat up on the bed looking down at the cup.

Would Hitoshi poison me?

I didn't think Hitoshi would poison me, he said before that he would never hurt me and I believe that much about him.

I took a sip from the cup as Hitoshi watched me drink, he insisted I drink it all so I did as I was told. Not too long after I had drank the whole cup of tea that he had served me, I started to feel dizzy in my head and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

It must have been quite some time since I had fallen asleep because when I awoke I was back inside the second room. Inside of a black steel cage, as if I was a rabid animal. I started to panic as I looked around my surroundings, the steel bars in my sight. There was a blanket over as I quickly took it off trying to recall yesterday.

That's what was in the tea, something to make me go to sleep so he could entrap me in a cage. The tears began to stream down my face as I put my hand over my chest, the pain in my heart became unbearable.

Why would he do this to me?

Hitoshi came into the room holding a tray, with a smile on his face. "Good morning" he said cheerfully, walking over to me putting the tray in front of the cage.

"W-Why?" I questioned turning my gaze away from him.

"You keep trying to run away" he explained the pain in his voice coming through.

I couldn't argue with him nor did I want too. It all felt so insane to me, that he would go through all of this. It was so dark in here, all I wanted was to be free of the darkness.
