There he lay.On the floor.Black Hole looked at him, his heart racing and his head aching. He could barely think of anything to say."T-Tree...?", the words barely slurred out of Black Holes mouth as he started at Trees body, blood slowly gushing out of his head and splattered on the floor. Black Hole stared at the blood and Trees broken glasses.Suddenly, Black Hole forgot how which emotions to feel and how to properly stand, so he fell onto his knees which got stained in blood, his hands shaking as he touched Tree's hair gently.Now Black Hole never cried before; why would he? But this, this time, and for the first time, he felt overwhelming tears roll down his cheeks, he understood it; Tree's dead.It was all his fault.Why didnt he stop flying so fast when he clearly couldnt hold Tree for that long?? Even Tree told Black Hole to stop. Hes so stupid for that, so.. so-!!"Black Hole!!", a familiar voice called out, but Black Hole was too focused on Tree and his thoughts to even turn his head.It was Fanny.She was running to Black Hole to call him and Tree back to the main area."Black Hole, Tree!! There you guys a-", she was cut off by her own self upon noticing Tree's dead body (or corpse, idk, isnt a corpse just a rotting dead body?? lol)."WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED???", Fanny yelled, trying to gather herself together and desperately begging her mind to try and get her eyes off of the blood and the fact that Tree is lying down and literally DEAD, sudden emotions surging through her mind."BLACK HOLE!!", she snapped her fingers multiple times to get Black Holes attention, until he finally looked at her, she never saw him genuinely upset, and even crying."B-Black Hole, what h-happened???", she tried to ask him as calmly as possible, but couldnt due to what the actual hell was going on."I-... I killed him.", Black Hole replied, gently dragging Tree towards him, his fingers going through Trees curly green hair."I-Its all my f-fault, Fanny.", Black Holes hands cupping Trees face, he adored the feeling of Tree's skin, but now, it's dead, cold and lifeless.Fanny couldnt believe her own ears, surely Black Hole didnt do it on purpose?? Why would he kill someone whom he so visibly and clearly admires??"Black Hole, we should go.", Fanny told Black Hole, putting her hand on his shoulder while watching him hold Tree so close to him.The thing is, the recovery centre was long broken, so all the objects took their teammates deaths very seriously, as they knew its gonna be permanent.It was dead silent, the only thing that could be heard was the glowy aura of Black Holes dark purple hair with shimmering white streaks; and his heavy breaths.Black Hole decided to finally get up with Tree in his arms, Black Hole was pretty tall and Tree was just a few inches shorter, so it wasnt such a big problem for Black Hole to carry tree."Black Hole!! Where are you going to put him??", Fanny exclaimed, looking at Black Hole, with Tree in his arms, he felt weaker, so much weaker than before. Of course; you wouldnt be very happy if someone you cared about just fucking died right 😂🔥"I dot wan- I cant leave him here, the recovery centre may be broken but we can still try right???", Black Hole said to Fanny with worried eyes, she sighed and shook her head. "Not even Golf Ball can fix it, if someone dies its permanent."Black Hole gasped, it was soft, but Fanny felt heartbroken that Black Hole was so,,, so upset.Black Hole put Tree down against another tree, his hands shaking. The blood on Black Holes hands and jeans already dried, leaving a stain that he looked at, not even noticing his trembling hands.He then left, just... walked away, not bothering to speak to Fanny, or even look at her.☆☆☆☆☆☆(guys btw the objects live in this sort of city and they all have homes its this silly human au 😟😦😞😔)Black Hole went to his home and stared at himself in the mirror (picture bro as a majestic lad ok 🔥). He only sees the flaws, he thinks of himself as a failure, an utter dissapointment.Tree used to work as a florist, he was so fasinated by flowers, he even gave Black Hole a few pink carnations, and he adored them more than anything in the world.But now; he lost love for anything that he thought Tree would like, he didnt want to see anything that reminded him of Tree just the slightest bit, instead of holding it dear to him.Black Hole looked at those pink carnations and angrily grabbed them, tossing them and the vase onto the floor, throwing himself on the bed, staring at the ceiling and the moving fan.He didnt want to see anyone, he just wanted to distance himself now, thats how deeply he actually loved Tree.He heard a knock on his apartment door, "Fuck, what the hell do they want from me.", Black Hole thought to himself, he opened the door and saw Fanny and Marker, he immediately calmed down a bit, when he sees those two he just feels comforted. "Oh, you guys come on in I guess", Black Hole said with an inviting but monotone voice."Listen Black Hole, even if that... happened to Tree... well always be there for you.", Fanny wouldnt usually say stuff like that but she really just wanted Black Hole to feel better. Marker was looking here and there, and then back at Black Hole, swinging his feet as he sat on Black Holes bed, noticing the broken vase. "Black Hole! Those are pretty flowers, you dont like them?", Marker exclaimed, pointing at the scattered carnations."O-Oh I u-uhh-", Black Hole stammered as he picked up the flowers and pieces of broken vase, then tossed them into the trashbin.Fanny laid a hand on Black Holes arm, a desperate attempt to try comfort him, Black Hole felt a stinging pain and Fanny pulled her hand away. "B-Black Hole! Are you ok? I didnt hurt you didnt I??", Fanny worriedly uttered. "N-No Fanny... I-Its alright...", Black Hole lied to her, sighing. He knows that if Fanny suspects something wrong and wants to find out, she will.meanwhile this dumbass marker was doing dumb shit like the autistic bitch he is end of chapter bye
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
It was 2:57 am.
The clock was ticking.
The silence felt loud.
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick...
Black Hole was lying down on his bed, his eyes felt tired, and his body felt cold. He remembered when he was a star, oh it was wonderful. (so guys when theres a star our sun counts too so when a star dies its core eats it from the inside and the gases inside a star heats up so much it just combusts and explosed and boom kaboom it turns into a blackhole i love astronomy its so yummy)
If he didnt have anyone to love passionately, theres no point to love anyone anymore.
Black Hole rolled his sleeves up, to see purple glowing scars on his blackest of the black skin (i hc black hole to have glowing purple blood :3).
He sighed and put his sleeves back down, he always did this, even when Tree was alive, and kept telling him not to, its just his coping mechanism.
"Tree would fucking hate this.", Black Hole thought to himself, as he pulled his sleeves up again and inspected the scars, some old, some fresh and some almost faded. He curled up under his blanket and tried going to sleep, he just... he just couldnt.
He decided to get up and go to the place where he left tree.☆☆☆☆☆☆He walked on and on, the streets were empty, he felt calm, at peace. (Wrote this while listening to mitski ^_< ~☆)
Black Hole reached the area, he saw Tree, sitting there, he forgot for a second he was dead, Black Hole rushed to Trees body, sitting beside it, pressing his knees against his body and staring at Trees face, he thought it was the prettiest thing in the world. "That face, that beautiful face, and I killed it, oh if only I could give my own life away for your lifeless soul to be worth and alive again.", Black Hole mumbled to himself. He touched Trees hair, it was still soft, and nice to touch.
Black Hole smiled, he liked Trees hair, then he touched his own, it was purple, straight, silky and with white streaks, as if you can see the galaxy itself in each strand; but he didnt picture that. Black Hole never saw anything nice in himself, other objects complimented him alot, but he didnt really believe them.
He sat there, admiring Tree, he may be just a body now, but Black Hole still thought of it as a pure vessel.
Black Hole felt his eyes closing, his thoughts clear, his mind at peace, whenever Black Hole fell asleep near Tree, Tree would pat Black Hole, even though it didnt happen anymore, but Black Hole was okay with it, at least hes still seeing Tree (uh dead tree XP).
Black Hole closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.☆☆☆☆☆☆Black Hole woke up, it was probably midday, he got up, glanced over Trees body and realized that he was sleeping while sitting next to it.
"God, ugh... my head...", Black Hole felt his head hurt, badly.
He got up and decided to go home, leaving Tree like that made his heart ache but, what to do?
He came back to his apartment and lied down on his bed, he really wanted to... it right now...
He just couldnt do it; couldnt bring himself to do it, what if someone sees them? No; he has long sleeves, but still...
He took out a small cutter, those 3 dollar plastic ones for school, and positioned the blade on his arm.
Slice
Slice
Slice
3 small slices and blood already started beading up.
Slice
Slice
Slice
3 deeper slices and blood started trickling down Black Holes arm.
FUCK
TODAY WAS THE DAY...
Where Golf Ball would gather everyone up and take their blood to ensure theyre healthy.
Maybe hed just show up to avoid worry among people but refuse to do it...☆☆☆☆☆☆Nevermind, Golf Ball was already there nagging Black Hole to roll his sleeves up.
"Just do it!! Or ill do it myself!!", Golf Ball tugged at the sleeves of Black Holes hoodie, fidgeting with the injection needle thingy idk in her hand.
"Fine!! Hmph..", Golf Ball took that opportunity while Black Hole got distracted and forcefully slid his sleeves up
Then, silence.
Golf Ball dropped the syringe, uncomfortably looking at Black Holes fresh scars.
He forced them down again, hiding his arm and avoiding Golf Balls eye contact.
"R-Right... B-Black Hole... I uhh..." Golf Ball swallowed and shakily took Black Holes hands.
"Y-You okay?", she asked hesitantly, picking up the syringe.
"Okay.., c-can I take your b-blood?", she asked trying to sound nice, not to scare Black Hole.
He shook his head in "no" and Golf Ball sighed. "I understand, y-you can go B-Black Hole."
Golf Ball felt worried about how Black Hole is right now, and decided to plan a visit to him in the evening. (I hc golf ball working as a therapist and she has a bachelors degree in biology/medical school)☆☆☆☆☆☆It was 6:21 pm, Black Hole was lying down on his bed, listening to something (its a MITSKI SONG RRAAAHHHHH 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥).
He heard a knock on his door and kept ignoring it until a voice yelled out. "BLACK HOLE!!", it was Golf Balls, she now knew about what Black Hole does to his arms, apart from Tree.
He sighed and decided that welp, time to answer the door.
He opened it and saw Golf Ball with a seriously worried expression, she may be bossy and controlling to the point where EVERYONE (ok maybe except tennis ball) complained about her.
But there was something uttely sweet about her voice.., its almost weird, she adjusted her large round glasses and fidgeted with her fingers.
"Uhh, Black Hole... so... I know you probably dont want to get reminded but... can we talk? About.. it...?", her voice was soft and sounded concerned.
Black Hole sighed and let her in.
"Sooo... can I inspect them?", Golf Ball placed her hand on Black Holes arm, he nodded and allowed her to do it. Fuck, why is he opening up to someone about his SELF HARM??? He never does that...
Golf Ball feels guilty and looks at Black Holes scars, whenever Tree saw them, hed softly kiss the scars, assuring Black Hole hell be okay, and that he loves him.
Golf Ball pulls out a cotton swab with ointment. "Tell me if it stings, ok? And dont continue doing this!!", Golf Ball tells Black Hole, he nods and extends his arm to her.
She puts the swab, rubbing ointment on the cuts and covering them in a gauze tape.
"Cant believe im doing this but.,, anything to make him better...", Golf Ball told herself as she hugged Black Hole suddenly, "Were friends, Black Hole, you can talk to me... I guess...", she mumbled to Black Hole, as he felt how genuine the hug was, he wrapped his arms around her back, smiling softly.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
Black Hole doesnt really want to leave his house anymore, he lies in his bed either sleeping or listening to music, or both. He does get up to eat food but not so much.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!!!!
Ugh, whos knocking so loudly and aggressively...
What if its something important? Fine, hell go answer.
Black Hole goes to open the door and there he sees Marker.
"HI BLACK HOLE!!!", he says enthusiastically as he hugs Black Hole.
"Oh uh, hi Marker, come in.", Black Hole replies, unsure of what to do. Marker walks in and sits down on his bed, swinging his feet.
"So, what's your favourite food??", Marker asks, he hasn't been focusing a lot on the messy room, but it doesn't really bother him.
"My favourite food? Uhh, it has to be...", Black Hole says unable to finish his sentence because we'll I also dk what my fav food is bruh but Marker was already in the kitchen, stove on, boiling water and a bunch of stuff on the counter.
"I'm gonna make a soup for you!!", he says happily, Marker loves cooking, he may not be the best but it's a small hobby he enjoys.
Black Hole smiles, God how he loves his friends, they may be a bit chaotic at times but they're his only source of comfort, especially Marker, he's just so happy all the time, and he's good at hugging!!!☆☆☆☆☆☆"Cmon Black Hole!! Open wide >:c !!!", Marker holds a spoon with soup up to Black Holes mouth.
Oh how he didn't wanna eat, but it would SHATTER 🔥🔥🔥 Markers heart. Maybe this one time he'll try. Black Hole takes the spoon from Marker and eats whatever he made, it's not THAT good but also not that bad, but definitely something he doesn't wanna eat every day.
"Mmmm, i-it's uhh wonderful!!", he said trying not to upset Marker. "B-But I'm full now! Can I finish it later?"
"Sure!!!", Marker replies, not wanting to force Black Hole, they talk for a while (4 hours) and Marker decides to head home.☆☆☆☆☆☆Black Hole feels lonely again without Marker, or Fanny, or anyone really, he decides to try sleep again, but not without visiting him.
Black Hole gets up and walks to the area (Its some forest thing btw).
He sits next to the dead body of Tree and smiles at it. But this time he decides to stay for a shorter time, he just didn't want to stare at his beloveds dead body for a long time knowing he isn't... well... alive anymore.
As Black Hole walks home, he unexpectedly meets Two, fuck he was wearing a regular shirt (he changed after marker left), so extremely sure that nobody would be here at 11 pm.
"Ou, Black Hole! Whatre you doing here at night?"
"I wanna ask you the same question."
Two already noticed the scars, but didn't want to mention them and ignored, feeling really uncomfortable. Black Hole too was feeling uneasy with the thought of how visible his scars are.
"Sooo... cool I met you here on the street so suddenly!", Two said, continuously breaking eye contact.
"Uhh yea... w-well I better get going... b-bye Two!", Black Hole walked away, trying to avoid Two looking at him.
"Oh! Well uhh... bye Black Hole!!"☆☆☆☆☆☆Black Hole arrived home and shut the door behind him with a loud BANG, now Two will think the worst of him. God why was he like this??
He threw himself on his bed, tired eyes, head empty and slowly drifting off to sleep. It wasn't normal for Black Hole to fall asleep so quickly, maybe he was just so extremely tired? Or he just felt like a piece of shit and cried himself to sleep.
In any case, tomorrow will still come.☆☆☆☆☆☆IM SOZ FOR THIS SMALL AHH CHAPTER GUYS :c
I WAS LITERALLY WRITING THIS DURING AN IMPORTANT LECTURE ❗❗❗
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
Black Hole woke up and looked at the time.1:27 pm.Did he really sleep that long?Well; he had to get up anyways, and looked at the day on his phone.Wednesday.14th February.Valentines day.Black Hole REALLY disliked valentines day. There was just something so useless about it. You can confess love to someone on any day; why make a holiday for it??Black Hole always slept in a regular black shirt and jeans, and he would change into something that covers his arms, but he had been so burned out that he wouldn't even want to commit SH and most of his scars were gone. So he decided to just go out, still a bit tired but at least he went out.Two saw him an remembered how they met suddenly a few weeks ago."Hi Black Hole!! H-Heh...", Two told him, trying to sound as if nothing happened."Hey.""Soo... are you a fan of valentines day?""Not really.""Well uh... I guess everyone has their own opinions!"Two giggled gleefully and continued walking beside Black Hole, he felt nice as they (some of yall forget two uses they/them prns...) walked with him. Not that lonely for once.Black Hole saw various other objects giving cards, flowers and etc. No matter what the action was, Black Hole understood that if it's on valentines day, it would automatically be considered romantic. Unless if it was something like Eraser giving a huge bouquet to Pen... which to be honest, both Black Hole and Two found pretty cute."Uhh... Two? May I ask you something?" Black Hole suddenly told Two."Sure! Anything." They replied."Can you fix the recovery centre?"☆☆☆☆☆☆"Tree :-)""Tree :-)""Tree :-)"Black Hole kept entering Trees name into the recovery centre, but the voice only repeats his name and nothing happens."Oh." Black Hole sighed, is this really the end?"So Black Hole... what exactly happened to Tree?", Two nervously muttered."You know how I have the ability of flight? Well me and Tree went to a forest and we went in too far, so we decided to go home by me flying is over and well, I didnt really know I was going so fast and high he... uh...""Fell?", Two interrupted as Black Hole stopped for a few seconds."Yea..."Black Hole sits on the ground, pressing his knees up to his chest."I havent been finding good ways to cope, Two.""I can see that. Youre secrets safe with me!!""You dont get it... Golf Ball knows and Fanny is suspicious of me. Of... of... you know... them...""Oh Black Hole! You shouldnt do this to yourself!", Two said with a voice full of concern, they reached in to hug Black Hole, their arms wrapping around his rather thin body."Sigh, thanks Two, I mean..l we tried reviving Tree... but...""One last thing, Two. Do you know how to bring objects back to life?" Black Hole asked Two with a curious yet desperate voice."Well... I dont think so. S-Sorry." Two replied, feeling guilty that they dissapointed Black Hole."Oh, its alright. Do uh... Algebraliens like Four or X do?""Im afraid not, Algebraliens have limited power, I mean, X barely knows how to do any sort of thing except... violently zap and electrecute others I guess he learned it from Four... because hes always around X and theyre always togeher its like theyre dating." (didnt michael or cary i forgor approve four and x being a ship?)"Yea, I saw when it happen to someone... X electrocutes pretty badly..."Two and Black Hole continues talking, both of their moods lifting up a bit, they enjoyed eachothers company, especially when Black Hole was feeling his absolute worst.☆☆☆☆☆☆"And promise to come to me any time you feel like?", Two told Black Hole while they were walking back to the main area."Sure..", he replied."And promise not to do the thing on your arms?""Uh huh.""Good! Now is this your apartment?""Yes. U-Uh.. thanks for walking with me, Two", Black Hole told them gratefully, smiling a bit."Youre welcome!!", they replied, waving to Black Hole as he went inside. Two knew that Black Hole could improve alot and... maybe just... move on...☆☆☆☆☆☆2 my friendster loukyussy whoz been nagging 4 a new chap > < luv ya :3
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
Black Hole was lying on the grass in Two's meadow, they invited him there to drink tea, well, only Two was drinking tea. Black Hole wasn't really fond of tea, he was more of a simple water drinking person.So after Black Hole drank the rather sweet water (two put pieces of fruit in there 👍) he went outside, to the lovely meadow. The grass was freshly cut, smelled nice and was soft. Black Hole really enjoyed lying there."By the way, I invited X as well!", Two said gleefully and continued stirring their cup of tea. (Tea on a chewsday innit haha get it cuz twos british sorta i mean their voice actor is haha)"Oh. Cool.", Black Hole replied, which sounded sarcastic to Two, but it was pretty genuine, and Black Hole seemed looking forward to meeting X.☆☆☆☆☆☆Two heard a knock on their door, as they opened it slowly, they noticed big yellow eyes peeking in."Hi X!! It's nice to see you!", Two greeted X as they opened the door fully."Hii Two!!!", X waved his arm aggressively. Unlike Two and Four, X was pretty friendly with Two and vice versa.Black Holes eyes were shut, his scarred hands behind his head and soft chiming could be heard from the slow wind against his long black hair adorned with various sized stars. He felt oddly at peace, which was then interrupted by X giggling and running outside.Black Hole got up and batted his fluffy eyelashes sleepily.His eyesight was fuzzy from waking up suddenly, so all he saw was a blurry yellow thing running around the garden.A few confused blinks and tired yawns later he realized it was X absolutely enjoying himself, smelling flowers and kicking at the grass.Black Hole smiled and stood up, walking towards X."Hi Black Hole!! How are you?" X told Black Hole as he hugged him. The act was sudden, but not overwhelming."Hey X." Black Hole answered back, ruffling X's fluffy yellow hair, which had four buns, two tied at he top and two tied at the bottom (to resemble the letter "X"), he liked that hairstyle."It's getting pretty hot guys! It's best if you come inside!", Two called out from inside their house like a parent worried for their children.☆☆☆☆☆☆Black Hole was lying on the couch, with X's smaller, shorter figure on top of his chest (NOT a ship guys!!! D:)."So Black Hole, has anything... interesting happened?", X asked."Tree died.", Black Hole answered him, he was comfortable enough with just saying it like that without getting overwhelmed with the images of Trees body flooding in his head."Tree WHAT??" X got up suddenly and looked at Black Hole, concerned."X... I... Look, I shouldn't have mentioned it... sorry...", he replied, thinking and asking himself WHY he just mentioned that infront of X?? (Sorry but i hc X to be like... a minor... 12-13 years old?)X decides to just stay quiet and lie his head back down against Black Holes chest, he knows how dear Tree was to Black Hole, so he wrapped his arms and legs around Black Hole as this sort of "hug" to try and show some comfort.Black Hole wrapped his arms around X's body, holding him closer. (guys not a ship ong!!! black hole is an adult 😦)"Im sorry, X.", Black Hole sighed."Its... its alright!!", X answered back trying to sound optimistic. He was maybe a child, but he knew how to comfort, sort of... so he decided to later ask Black Hole to just... spill out everything and straight up vent to him.☆☆☆☆☆☆Black Hole waved goodbye to Two while X was holding his hand, since X asked Black Hole to drop him off home cuz yk... x isa child and uh.., amd stranger danger.... yk..As X walked around the city with Black Hole until X tugged on his arm gently."Black Hole? Are you ok?, X asked."X, uhh.... mmh.. yea. Sort of.", Black Hole replied."You can tell me Black Hole, but... you dont have to though...", X tried sounding sweet, not wanting to force."Well..."☆☆☆☆☆☆"That sounds awful!!! Are your arms ok??", X chaotically asked Black Hole, somehow X also found out about Black Holes scars, really, it just slipped out. At least Black Hole managed to convince all of these scars were accidents, and not purposefully self inflicted cuts."Yeah... sorry X, you didnt deserve to know."X hugged Black Hole.Black Hole hugged X back.It felt... nice...Later X ended up at Black Holes apartment room instead. He was eating candies and watching cartoons on the telly (british ahh word who tf uses telly 😭😭).Black Hole smiled at X, he thought how child like X is, sitting and eating sweets while watching My Little Pony. Maybe Black Hole could join him?There they both were.Black Hole licking at a lollipop and X eating a chocolate bar."Mmph, whos your favourite pony? Mines Pinkie Pie!!!", X asked."Oh I dont really know, I cant pick between Sunset Shimmer and Rarity, theyre both pretty nice." ,Black Hole replied.Then thy continued their YAP session and yeah they were YAPPINH bro,,, idk what else to write yea im in the park as im writing theres a cat next to me ok bye guys like and subcriebe and hit tgat bell buton
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
Black Hole wakes up at 12:47 PM after going to bed at 2 AM. "Fuck", he thought, his back and shoulders hurt from sleeping in a bad position. Suddenly, painful memories of Tree came flooding in, he felt too overwhelmed and the pressure made Black Hole feel as if we was going to explode.(Listening to mandatory suicide as im writing guys its by this sick metal band slayer i recommend u listen to it (coming from a scenemo kid sorta person))Black Hole felt a tear come down his cheek from his eye.Cutting.Cutting was the only way Black Hole knew how to cope.A few minutes later and Black Hole is staring at the couple of slashes on his arm. The purple blood oozed out and went over other almost faded cuts.He thought that was enough and took a deep breath. He took some gauze tape (the long cotton bandage thingy idk im not a doctor) and wrapped it around his bloody arm. The cuts were in fact, really deep. And the burning pain the gauze caused did not help at all. A tiny bit of blood phased through.Black Hole started sniffling, trying to hold back tears because of how badly his arm pained.After the pain on his arm eased, a pain in his stomach started, "Must be hunger", he thought, and decided to go eat something for once. ☆☆☆☆☆☆
(TW: i tried making this as SAD as possible using my english writing skills which got me a D unfortubately but here you guys go yum yum yum eat up children)
After Black Hole ate, he decided to go outside, since the nature around him reminded him of Tree. For him, it was another coping method except cutting and watching the blood painfully leak down as a reminder of how... how careless he was handling Tree on that day.Thats when he stopped suddenly and looked down, before his feet was a bouquet of damaged, dead tulips. Black Hole picked one up and thought to himself, "Someones heart got broken today...", as he kept staring at the tulip, he couldnt help but pick up all of them from the floor and rebuild the bouquet of dead tulips. There was something so special about them to Black Hole that he couldnt just remember....As he continued walking with the tulips held together by a long, thin, quite bendy stick, he felt a strong painful hit in his stomach.Ow.Ouch....Black Hole felt a strong overwhelming feeling in his throat and he suddenly felt really dizzy.☆☆☆☆☆☆With the bouquet on the floor next to him, Black Hole was vomiting into the toilet, fuck why did it happen, HOW did it happen??? Then it came to him, Black Hole didnt obsess over biology for nothing after all.Your immune system can fail from little sleep.And make you vomit. (chat i experienced it yesterday lmao feels awful as hell)As Black Hole cried and whimpered silently, panting from lack of air; he couldnt help but think...Why not just end it all?Why cant he do just that??Right here right now???
...
No, he immediately then thought, Tree would be upset with him. (Trees not even alive)Aah... doing all this in a public restroom is embarassing, everything can be solved happily at home.☆☆☆☆☆☆As he unlocked the door to his apartment, tulips still in hand, he went inside and decided to put the beautifully wilted flowers in a vase. As he stared at them, it came to his mind like an arrow to his head on why those tulips were so important to him.
Tulips were Trees favourite flowers.
And now theyre dead.
Just like him.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
Black Hole sat up from his bed. He felt even worse than before, he just wanted to cry still convinced Trees death was all entirely his fault. Hes been having dreams of it by now... of how his carelessness got him to that.He got out of bed and went to the kitchen, as usual, decided not to eat again. Until he heard a soft knock on his door. He opened it and saw that there was standing Fanny and Bubble."Hoi Black Hole!", Bubble exclaimed, waving to Black Hole while holding her silly willy gfs hand :3"Yeah... hi.", Fanny replied back.Unexpected surprise visit. Unexpected but pleasant.☆☆☆☆☆☆Bubble watched intently as Black Hole and Fanny were playing chess. Bubble might just be blown away (pun intended) at all the tension.Until Fanny made a move and..."Checkmate!!", she proudly said. Bubble and Black Hole clapped at Fannys victory as Fanny giggled. "Well... since Fanny won I gueeeesss she should get a goooold medal!!! Yaay.", Black Hole smiled and told Fanny as he hung a makeshift gold medal made of paper around her neck. Bubble and Black Hole clapped again as Fanny showed off her medal."Anyone wanna bake something?", Black Hole suggested, the two other girls nodded and smiled as they followed Black Hole to the kitchen.The kitchen became a mess!! 70% of that 1 hour they spent in the kitchen was playing instead of baking, but the funfetti cake the three of them made tasted divine.Black Hole felt solace being with his friends.He felt, at peace.When Bubble and Fanny left, Black Hole felt lonely again, he decided to just watch some television, it was boring. 5 minutes already felt like an hour, so he decided to just turn it off and go on a walk.Outside, he met Two again, they both walked together, then Two noticed fresh scars on Black Holes fingers. Two frowned as their heart ached in sympathy as they tried looking away from the scars. Black Hole didnt realize how he wore a rather short sleeved shirt, so about half of his arm was revealed.Two sighed as he stopped Black Hole and said softly, "Black Hole. We need to talk."They both were under a tree (haha lmao) as Two was sitting with Black Hole lying down on the soft grass, his head on Twos lap as Two was gently making small braids in his hair. "Black Hole... you know I really care for you? And... well uh...", Two murmured quietly."I know, Two.", Black Hole said back as he looked at his arm.Two sighed before then calmly asking Black Hole, "Wanna... come over to my house for a few days..?"☆☆☆☆☆☆(tw: im not gonna provide strong spoilers but dont read if you cant take detailed descripton of violence (?) easily. do read if ur a curious soul)The thought of having a sleepover with Two sounded really fun, Black Hole found Two as a really great comfort friend for when he was feeling really bad or sick. The night came and the two got ready for bed. Black Hole felt fine sleeping on the floor but Two insisted and slept on a mattress on the floor instead. At about 2 AM, Black Hole felt a sudden surge of unease, the same reoccuring dream of Tree appeared in his mind as he shot up, sitting on the bed.He REALLY felt uncomfortable."Two... Twooo...", he whispered softly, looking down at Two, shaking them awake."Wh... huh?", Two slowly woke up, rubbing their eyes and sitting up. "Y-Yeah?", they yawned, then noticed the upset look on Black Holes eyes. "That dream again huh?", Two said softly as they climbed in the bed next to Black Hole. "Lie down and try going back to sleep, alright? Ill stay here..", they said again, their voice comforting as Black Hole complied. Both of them were now lying down on the bed, until Two felt arms wrap around them, they giggled as they let Black Hole hug them as a source of comfort.He couldnt help but cry.Two heard Black Hole sniffling softly and hugged him back. "Shh... its okay, Black Hole..", Two stroked Black Holes hair as they tried providing all the love they can since Two knew how badly Black Hole was struggling with pretty much everything.4 AM, Two was sound asleep.Black Hole wasnt. The ticking sound of the clock drove him insane, and so did those intrusive, awful thoughts.Enough was enough.Black Hole wondered if Two had the kithen utensil he needed and after calmly and very gently getting up from the bed, not waking up Two... turns out they did!☆☆☆☆☆☆The sound of birds and the bright morning light woke Two up, they didnt feel the familiar warmth and body pressing against theirs as they curiously got up. Maybe Black Hole just woke up early? They went to the kitchen to make some morning tea and...There he found Black Hole.The knife still in his chest, next to other multiple deep stab marks, blood pooled everywhere on the floor.The scene was overwhelming for Two as they rushed to Black Holes body, their legs shaky as they dropped to the floor in horror, whimpering and crying, tears falling onto the floor, mixing with Black Holes purple blood.Two noticed a note written in shaky handwriting, and picked it up with a trembling hand, reading it through tear filled eyes.
Dear Two, im sorry for what ive done with this. Im really sorry, I just couldnt continue living like this anymore. I really couldnt. Everything was just too much for me. Im sorry for doing it straight in your own house and forcing you to find out about all of it. I just couldnt hold back any longer. This was truly the only way I could cope with Trees death. Please just... make sure to move on like how I couldnt.
The note, and Black Holes body made Two cry harder as they held the note close to their chest as they reached out their hand to cup Black Holes cheek.The only member Two really and honestly hung out alot with. (aside from Gaty ofc, this is pre tpot 16). And now hes gone."Damn you, Black Hole..", Two sobbed, the words choked out of their mouth as they looked at the lifeless body in the middle of their kitchen.The rest of the day was spent cleaning up the blood and gently placing the body in the pantry. No one could find out about what Two witnessed. Even though it might bring them great trouble in the future, they couldnt let the other objects get even more traumatized at another ones death. Two will tell them......later.

SURPRISE SURPRISE NEW CHAPTER!!!!! my mental health is rapidly declining also im deciding to update this a final time before finally trying to kill myselfit was fun writing guys! ill update if my suicide attempt is unsuccessful 💕 /sarc i h8 myself so long ☆☆☆☆☆☆ Two was in their treehouse with Eight while he was trying to find out how to cheer up Two. Eight wondered why Two was suddenly so... upset and unhappy."We tried video games.. board games.. other... games...", Eight sighed before looking at Two worryingly, who was looking outside the treehouse window.Eight had always cared about Two, deeply. They were best friends. And Eight would do anything to make Two feel better.To be honest, Eight never saw Two looking so sad before, and decided to ask. He moved a bit closer to Two as he spoke gently and reached out to cup the others cheek, "Hey Two... are you alright?", Eights voice was hoarse but he still tried to make it sound as soft as possible.Two leaned into Eights touch as they started to tear up, remembering vivid and traumatic images of Black Holes gorey body. Suddenly, Two quickly sat up straight and blinked back their tears, "Wooh.. im fine! Just a little bit tired from waking up early!", they spoke, trying to sound calm, but their voice clearly sounded off."Really? Cuz you almost started crying...", Eight replied as he moved next to Two, wrapping his arm around them. Two then melted into Eights touch and buried their face in his chest, starting to cry."Woa ! Uh... Two... y.. you wanna tell me whats going on?"(also small useless rant in the middle of the fic yall i know two is voiced by a guy and sounds like one if they had a gender theyd prolly be a male but they use they/them pronouns its ok if u didnt know but if u do its just simple courtesy to use ones correct pronouns two is non binary 💔💔💔)☆☆☆☆☆☆There the both of them were, sitting together in the treehouse, Two was sitting close infromt of Eight as they told him everything that happened, to how Tree, then Black Hole died. Eight couldnt process what Two just said- it was all just so much information dumped on him !"Oh.", Eight muttered, not knowing what to do or how to comfort, he reached out and held both of Twos smaller hands in his bigger ones. "Well im... sorry for your friends.", he mumbled, trying to comfort Two.Two wiped their tears and looked up at Eight, their cheeks stained with tears and their eyes tired and red as they held Eights hands. "P-Promise you w-wont leave me l-like t-that ?", Two spoke, their already miserable voice breaking more with very word.Eight sighed and his expression softened as he smiled and placed his lips onto Twos as they felt their cheeks burning (as in blushing if u guys dk the metaphor >_>) at the sudden action. Two didnt even resist or fight back. Just sorta accepted it. The both of them stayed like this for quite a while, Eight poured all his love into that to show Two that after all, everything will be okay. Those 10 damned seconds felt like an hour, like an eternity, before he pulled away and said, "I would never leave you, Two."Never. That was Eights promise.They ARE best friends after all.And best friends keep promises.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
MY SUICIDE ATTEMPT FAILED TO IM REWARDING YOU ALL WITH A NEW CHAPTER THIS IS THE FINAL CHAPTER NO MORE ASKING FOR MORE RGRRR 😔😔😔😔😔😜😜😜 ☆☆☆☆☆☆also read this chapter or this entire fic while listening to "i bet on losing dogs" by mitski for extra sad HAHAHAHEHEHWHSHEIDIFHDIDH Two looks out of the window as they sat up on their bed, it should be about 10 AM, but does that mean theyll get out of bed? No. For the past week theyve been bed rotting and getting extremely tired, after the whole incident, Two would stay up at night, completely traumatized. They didnt even realize that what has happened to Black Hole when Tree died was whats happening to them right now. A painful depressive episode filled with guilt and self blaming.Two never self harmed, they never thought of cutting. Harming their precious body? No way. But they knew to Black Hole it felt good, it felt like a way of escape and a good way to punish himself even though he did nothing wrong (I DONT PROMOTE SELF HARM!! if ur experiencing cutting problems or having thoughts of it speak to someone u trust and try to start a habit of stopping it).Two stared at the cieling and kicked the blanket off of their body before finally getting up and going into the bathroom. They looked in the mirror and thought about their disheveled appearance, Messy hair, tired soulless eyes and an expression which looks like theyre gonna break down crying.Two decided to stay inside their house again, not bothered to go out. They know Black Hole asked them in his suicide note to... just move on. Stay happy, unlike what he did. But its so... so difficult when youve lost a friend you love... alot. Two changed into their dark green suit, the usual. They were always so formal it was funny, but expected from them. Being formal and punctual was Twos main priority, it was to make themself feel nice. But now there was no point, they felt so empty inside that it seemed useless to do whatever.Two was fixing their suit, and their smile in the mirror to at least cover up their sadness, until they heard a knock on their door. When Two opened the door, they looked up and saw Eight (hc that two is 5'6 and eight is 6'2 :3) who just came to visit. "Uh, hello Two.", Eight said and thats when Two came back to their senses. "O-Oh come in!", Two said as they let Eight in.Eight noticed Twos unusual unhappiness again and then managed to mutter out, "Still thinking about.. your friend?". How did Eight know? Well.. Two wasnt very good at covering their sadness, usually because theyre usually really joyous. Two nodded at Eights question and sighed. "Im trying to like... forget about it. I really wish I could since... its what Black Hole wanted.", Two said while they sat on their bed. "But I feel like crying whenever I remember it intead."Eights heart hurt at the sight of his best friend venting to him and sat next to Two, wrapping an arm around them. "You seem really tired, have you been taking care of yourself??", Eight asked. Two shook their head. Fuck whyd they tell the truth like that...Eight hugged Two tighter as he sighed, "Wether you like it or not im gonna take care of you.", he meant it. Hed really do that, for Two.Now Eight saw Two as his... best friend, nothing else! Nothing else...Two also saw Eight as their best friend. Nooothing else... nothing else really!Well maybe they do unknowingly like eachother. Theyd do anything for eachother, thats what besties do right? Two didnt know if Eight reciprocated those feelings, and vice versa unfortunately, which led to the both of them thinking the worst. "What if the other doesnt like me back???"But after what happened in their treehouse, the way Eight comforted Two in the most intimate way, the both of them became even more confused. Holy shit 😢Two looked up at Eight, "P-Please do.", they said, trying to hold back their tears."I wont judge you, Two. Let it out on me. All on me."And with that, Two started crying again. The whole thing-- losing their friends was TOO overwhelming. They were quite sensitive to stuff like death, thats why they suddenly fell into THE worst point of their life ever.Eight tried comforting Two by patting their back, shit... that wouldnt work.. hed have to do a better job.And what happened next ??Eight gently lifted Twos head up and kissed them again. With the same gentleness and love like before. Two found themself... calmed down at that. They felt liked and... comforted.When Eight pulled away, he told Two while cupping their cheeks, "My honey... dont cry. You know I love you."Honey. Two liked that name.☆☆☆☆☆☆FIN.
