Say something, I'm giving up on you. Dhmis

Paige turner sat at the table, drawing herself pulling Tony's heart out. Her whole body green to show how sad, angry and stressed out she really was. The bright colors in her hair faded and she didn't even giggle at the sight of violence. The three puppets peeked their heads in examining her. Robin and Manny looked up at Harry, Telling him to go. Harry was the bravest out of the three, and normally didn't give two shits about anything. But he was nervous, Paige was a cranky one when angry. Her emotions were unclear, so red approached. "Hey you.. What's wrong?.." Paige colored in the drawing and huffed. "Nothing.." Harry always saw Tony poke her, or tickle her to cheer her up. So he joked around a bit and his voice seemed a bit shaky. "Commmme onnnn." He poked her arm and she snapped. "PISS OFF YOU USELESS WORM." He rolled his eyes and backed up. "Whatever." The three puppets knew what she was capable of, so they sat in the living room and watched their show. Later on, Tony walked in with groceries with just pizza and fish inside. Even fish pizza. "Hey harry is there room In the freezer for-.."

"There's no room in the kitchen for anyone or anything. Paige is upset. I tried cheering her up."

Tony quietly walked in the kitchen and put his things away.

"I know it's you.." Paige growled.

Tony sighed and faced towards her. "Please do explain dear. What's wrong with you?" Paige laughed a bit, got up, and faced towards him. "What's wrong?.." She laughed a bit and pulled out and empty liquor bottle. "I don't know Tony.. Why don't you tell me?.." He began to sweat and he slicked back his hair. "Well.." The truth was he's been drinking for months now, but he was hiding it. He was stressed out, somewhat depressed. He always drank over the small things. Time, his past, and concern for others. His past was not the best, His father owned a small antique shop. His father had an obsession over clocks and taught him about clocks ever since he was small. His dad was abusive, He remembers he would beat him up if he was a second off when tony helped repair clocks. If his dad caught him mucking around by playing with friends, He'd get hit. Tony always wondered about his mother also. Was she killed by his dad? He never met his mom. Maybe she-.. "TONY!!" Paige yelled and smashed the bottle over his head. "ANSWER ME GOD DAMN YOU!" Shit. He must've had some flash backs. "That would be a liquor bottle that I drank dear." Paige stabbed to pencils in his hands, leaving him pinned to the floor. She dumped out the trash on the floor and picked up five more liquor bottles. "WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE TONY?!" Her eyes teared up and one by one she smashed the glass bottles over his head. She was angry that he would drink so much like this, She wanted to be that one friend that he was able to talk to. She could never really control her emotions and she punched his face. The two puppets watched from a distance and red pulled her off. "Calm down Paige work it out!!" He sat her in a chair and pulled out the pencils from Tony's hands. As the puppets walked in the living room, Tony got up and sat next to her. "Darling.. What's wrong?.." Paige sighed and looked at her drawing. "I just feel so alone.. So unwanted.. I have so much going on.. and now your drinking. I worry. Please tell me why your doing this." Tony's heart sank and he went silent. "I'm just drinking, but don't you worry about me.." He got up and started to walk out, but heard a quiet soft voice. "Your gonna leave me alone?.. After I told you that I felt unwanted?.. That I felt alone?.." Tony sighed and looked at the ground. "Your not the only one that's stressed out dear. And I'm not going to stay here and have you try and kill me. You must control your actions and emotions darling. You looking like your asking for attention. I'm also not too happy that you would hurt a friend that wants to help." He turned back around and looked back at her. Paige was angry, but she felt like crying. "Help?.. Your not helping me! Your walking away from me! Maybe.. If you weren't such a dick, You'd take your stupid time and try to understand how I feel!" Tony crossed his arms and looked at her. "You think I'm talking about me?.. I'm talking about Harry. Even after you made his brain think more 'creatively' He still wanted to cheer you up." Paige was mad with rage. She was sitting here crying, spilling her heart out to him and he was defending Harry? She just wanted to know that he cared but he was sitting there with arms crossed. "Tony.. I was sitting there upset and he was pissing me off by poking me! Don't be so childish and don't defend him! I find it funny that you would defend a man that was your victim a year ago! He was annoying me, And now I'm pissed that you would choose a side. I'm not looking for attention either! How dare you!" Tony sighed and looked at her. "Choosing a side?.. I'm not choosing sides, I'm sticking up for a man that can't even stick up for himself! And I'm acting childish? Your always upset about something stupid! My god you cried for an hour because Manny ate the last orange! Don't you dare say I'm the childish one! You need to learn how to bottle up your emotions! I was abused my whole life and didn't cry once about it!" Tony thought for a moment. Jesus Christ this wasn't him, He was never like this around her. But he had to stick to his word. Even though she was the one he loved, enough is enough. He had a gut feeling that this would end bad. Every time he said something with his voice raised, he felt shaky. He didn't sound shaky at all, But he was somewhat hurting. Not only that, but he never spoke about his past. Paige was silent, heartbroken. They weren't dating, but she never had the guts to tell him how she felt. She wanted a hug, But she was pissed she was called an attention whore. "You've been through a lot?! Well you don't know half the shit I've been through! You know why I don't tell you? because I don't trust you one bit! And your not a good friend at all! If your whole goal here is to make me cry and to get me depressed, Your gonna have to try harder! Because I don't need your help. Your not the person I thought you were. Your just a selfish, lonely, douschebag! Do you know how stupid you sound right now? I have to bottle up my emotions? Don't give advice if you can't even stick to your own word!" She wanted to cry so much, She wanted to be alone. When she usually cried, she wanted to be in his arms. This time she didn't even want to see his face. She loved him so much, But she felt so small. My god she was right, He was being a honest douche.. He wanted to hug her,hold her, and tell her everything was going to be okay. But he just wasn't gonna take that from her and look like an idiot! He's obviously wasn't a good friend! Wasn't a good friend? He was by her side from the start! Fine, Let it happen. He will show her a terrible friend. "My goal here wasn't to make you depressed! I'm just telling the truth in a harsh way! My god I care about you, But fuck it! I'm not a good friend. I'm trying to understand, But you just keep screwing me over and pushing me away! What did you expect me to be? A sweet man that will take your breath away? Well, welcome to reality. Your correct Paige, I'm just a selfish lonely douchebag. I will be leaving this house right away!" He was waiting for something, He wanted her to say "I need you.." or.. "That's not what I meant!" Like an apology. But I guess He was expecting way to much from her. She sat there in silence and she thought. You love him Paige, speak up before you loose him! But there was nothing left to say anymore. She didn't want to give in, She told him to stick to his word and she was gonna stick to hers. Tony sighed and looked at her as his voice grew quiet. "It's a shame that it's really ending like this. The future doesn't exist, But I thought we had a future together. I guess I was wrong Paige, I guess I expected way to much" Her eyes teared up when she watched him walk out the door. When they met, They always stuck to their word. But this time it didn't feel right at all. She sighed and wrote down in her notepad how she really felt. "I didn't know that the truth would be this harsh. The day I met you I wasn't expecting anything from you.. Your not a selfish lonely douchebag, I care a lot about you. After all the stabbing, The slicing and dicing, I just wanted to tell you three words. 'I love you.' I never really did speak up that day because I felt embarrassed. You we're wrong, when you said I should've known that I needed to bottle up my emotions. I did this time, I hid my love for you and you're gone." As tony drove away, He felt his heart breaking. How could he be so dumb to think that she loved him? It was too good to be true.. Even though he said what was needed, He felt like he had more to say. He wanted to just say how much he loved and cared about her. Just to let her know how he felt, and so he could leave without any regrets. But he was gonna take her advice and stick to his word. "The past is far behind us." He said as he sighed and drove. "She will soon be in the past, And I won't have to worry about her anymore." As he drove, He didn't dare to look back. But when he did look back, He looked in the back seats of his car. He saw liquor and he hesitated to grab one. "No, No. No drinking and driving Tony. Your better than this."

Later on the three puppets and Paige watched TV. Red had the remote like the usual, And he was flipping through channels. Then noticed breaking news around their area. A man died in a car crash due to drinking and driving. Paige noticed the car right away and ran upstairs to Tony's room. She laid on his bed and wept for hours. With thoughts going through her mind and how much she regretted not speaking up. She felt like this was all her fault and she shouldn't of fucked up so badly. After there was no more tears to shed, She laid there and examined the room. Nothing was too exciting about his room. He just had his clothes neatly placed in his closet, A pocket watch on his nightstand, But then she noticed a calendar hanging up. Today's date was June 19th. The day when Paige first taught creativity to the puppets, When tony came along and taught the puppets about time. When the three puppets lost their mind, and painfully rotted. June 19th, The date when everything bad happened. She knew things always were bad on this date, but she never knew how painful it would be.
