"Liar." (ZackxMale Reader!)

"why do I love you so.."

You and Zack have been walking for a few hours now. You walked slowly behind Zack, his scythe dragging against the ground. You looked up at Zack and you reached your hand up and tried to touch his shoulder, but you stop and close your eyes.

When you reopen your eyes you're in that room in that same hospital. You look over to the clock on your side and see its 8am. You grab your pillow and place it over your face and scream into it, letting out a chocked sob as well. You imagine the sweet scent of blood and rust, the smell of Zack, and you hold the pillow close to your chest. 'a dream..?' You think to yourself and you sit up in the bed and look at that window. 

'but it felt so real..' You think to yourself again as you stand and walk over to the window and press your hand against the glass. You then turn to look at the door and you slowly walk to it and open it. You make your way down to the breakfast room and just sit at one of the tables without eating. 

 "You need to eat little prince" you hear Zacks voice ring through your head. Your breath suddenly hitches as you feel like crying again. You look away and slowly stand, your hands shaking, and walk over and grabs the food they were serving them you go back to sitting. You look down at the breakfast. 

A cinnamon roll. You make a face of disgust but then you remember that zacks voice said to eat something. You sigh and take a bite and then lay your head on the table. You see a bandaged hand on your knee and you suddenly look up. You see Zack sitting beside you and you instantly want to cry once again. 

 "Fuck I miss you.." You say quietly as you scoot closer to this Zack. He touches his hand to your cheek.

 "Stop crying and smile little prince" he says and you smile through your tears and you reach out to touch him, but he disappears. You look away and get up and run back to your room.

You close the door and lean against it and slide down to the floor. You cover your eyes and begin to sob. You think of those mismatched eyes of his, the way he walked, he much he cursed, just him in general and you cry more. 

An hour passes and you've stopped crying. You stare at the wall. You hear a shuffle on the bed and you look over seeing Zack sitting down. You get up and walk over to him. 

 "You've cried a lot over me, don't ever do that Little prince" he says and you sink to the floor in front of him. You look up at him and tears prick into your eyes again. 

 "You're gone..like really gone.. Aren't you?" You whisper and he says nothing. He instead he presses his hand against your cheek again and smiles softly. 

"I'm still right here Little prince" he says and you go to touch him but he disappears again. 

 "Fuck!" You yell loudly and you can hear nurses rushing to your room. You get up and back away against the wall as the door opens.

you don't struggle, you don't have the energy to. The nurses take you into new blinding white room and that therapist guy is sitting down. You look at him and that's when your rage overcomes you. You try to leap forwards at him, but the nurses hold tightly onto you.

"I hate you! I hate to I hate you!" You yell at him as he simply watches you, carefully. 

you get strapped down to the chair in front of him and you try to struggle free even though you know it's no use. After a few minutes when you've seem to calm down he starts talking.

 "You seem angry, why's that?" He asks and you growl a little. 

"Because people like you are unfair to people like Zack. He was a sweetheart outside of that anger.. And you fuckers killed him! The one person I promised to keep alive.. " you glare at him but you suddenly stiffen as a hand touches your neck.

 "Don't hold anything back little prince. Let him know about us and my troubled past, do it." You hear zacks voice beside you an you close your eyes and sigh, instantly feeling calm with his voice.

"Zack was my boyfriend technically. He's covered in a many bandages because as a child his father burned him. Then he was handed over to a shady orphanage. The owners made him work and called him a tool..and then they'd laugh and be happy for being assholes to a kid. That's why he does what he does. The people he's killed were all happy before he did it. Will he needed was someone to show him better.. " you reopen your eyes and look at the therapist.

"But instead you sentenced him to death row. For what? The murders? God I knew people were stupid but I didn't realize you were that stupid. People who murder other people, are people are unrightfully misunderstood. Like Zack for example, people would take one look at him and instantly hate him. But for what? Because he looks strange? You see..people like Zack.. Needed some amount of justice, and they instantly result to violence because they don't know better." You say and you feel that hand that was on your neck, move down to your chest.

 "Good boy little prince.." His voice whispers and echoes in your head. Your breath hitches again as you close your eyes to his back the tears. 

"Please, unstrap me from this chair..I won't try anything, I promise." You say and you look at the therapist. As he nods you begin to be unstrapped. Then the other nurses leave and you shift in the chair and rub your wrist softly. you look up and with as your eyes scan the ceiling.

You lay awake in bed and you look at your side when you hear the bed shift. You look at Zack as he lays beside you and you turn over to face him. 

"I love you Zack.." You whisper softly as tears come to your eyes again. You feel the touch of his hand on your cheek, and the press of his lips on your head.

"I love you to little prince" he says and you close your eyes and begin to fall asleep. You inhale a deep breath of his beautiful scent and you drift into the pure bliss called sleep.

When you wake up you look at the clock seeing its 8am. You sit up in bed and look up from the floor. You see Zack leaning against the wall, his jacket unzipped and a playful smile on his lips. You stay still as he steps forward. "Have a lovely day little prince~" he purrs and you close your eyes.

When you open them again you see you're alone with no one in the room. 

"Why do I love you so..?" You ask quietly, knowing there would be no response.
