He shook his head, no longer looking at her. ”If I was going to end anything… I’d be more likely to end myself than ever consider hurting you.” he told her as he walked out of the room. ”Am I not enough for you?” he whispered softly to himself.
She sighed taking her ring off letting it hit the ground.
Lysander’s sharp ears heard the sound of the ring hitting the floor and immediately ran out of the house. He didn't care where he ended up. His eyes welled up with tears from his broken heart.
Betty closed her eyes waiting for the pain.
After a few minutes of running and losing track of how far a distance he was from the house, he finally stopped and utterly broke down. Crying out in complete agony, not caring who heard.
Betty groaned she slowly crawled over to the blood bag and drained it she had enough energy to put the ring back on and run out of the house and running until she found Lysander and she kneeled down wrapping her arms around him from behind.
Lysander pulled away in surprise before he recognized Betty and wrapped his arms around her still crying a little.
" shhhh it's ok I'm here" she said resting her head on his shoulder
He rested his head on top of hers as he held her close. ”Please don't do that again.” he begged.
" okay" she agreed kissing his cheek
He sighed softly as he slowly stopped crying. ”How did you get out here?” he asked, realizing the distance she would have had to run to get to him.
" i don't know I knew you were troubled so all I www thinking was I had to get to you$
He nodded, not bothering to deny that he had obviously been troubled. ”I meant, how did you manage to get here? You haven't been drinking enough so you shouldn't have had enough energy to get this far.”
She shrugged " I don't know" she said " why were you crying" she asked.
He sighed and shook his head. ”My darling. You remember how you cried when you saw the illusion of me as if I was dead? Besides you not being dead, the only difference between then and now is it wasn't an illusion for me.”
" i was the reason" she asked.
”I was worried about you.” he told her. ”I felt like there was nothing I could do to help you.”
" I'm here now" she said
He nodded. ”Just, please never do that to yourself again. If something is upsetting you, I want to help you.”
She nodded still hugging him and kissed his cheek.
He still had his arms wrapped around her, just wanting to be close to her at this moment.
She would stay like this as long as he wanted her to
Lysander turned his head to press a kiss to her cheek before he pulled away slightly so he could look at her. ”I love you.”
" I love you too" she said with a soft smile.
Lysander returned the smile before finally standing up. ”Are you ok?”
