Another Chance

The Visit

BUZZ. When Oswald limped into the visiting room and saw edward nygma sitting in a chair at the table in the center of the room he knew why he was there
telling by that smug smile on his face.To Gloat.Just seeing him makes him want to curl into a ball and cry until his eyes are swollen.Edward studies Oswalds face from the bruises to the long cut across his right cheek.

He chuckled. It was why he came here. Laugh at oswald,make him feel miserable and lonely and then leave.

"I take it your here to gloat." Oswald half-questioned. Still on the verge of tears.

"CORRECT." Edward said smug and loudly. Oswald felt too many emotions. He wanted to laugh,cry,and choke edward all at once. He felt one tear fall from his eyes.

Ed's smile slowy disappeared when as oswald turned to the gate. Head down.NO. He was here to laugh and leave. But he couldn't help but feel...........guilt.

"I would like to go to my cell now." He sounded so weak,broken, damaged. Edward knew it was because of him.
Edward hated that. Edward hated seeing him like this. Edward hated Sofia Falcone.
But,why?

"Oswald,wait!" Oswald stopped at the sound of his voice. Why did it sound like he was sad? Oswald didn't turn around but he could hear Ed approaching him.

Oswald turned around with his head still down and tears streaming down his face.

"Oswald........I........I am sorry...for everything I did."

Oswald looked up at this. Edward noticed that Oswald wasn't hopeful,sad,or loving he was......angry.

"Your sorry?....... Your SORRY!?
What are you sorry for Ed, for teaming up with Barbara Keane and her gang,shooting me and dumping me in a river, or for, I don't know, driving me insane and throw my fathers remains IN A DUMPSTER!"

Oswald was burning with anger. How could Ed just say "sorry" and expect him to forgive him.
Edward was just feeling more hurt and guilty with each word.

"As if my mother and father dying in my arms didnt drive me insane or break me enough,Ed!" Edward hated how he spat his name. It felt awful.

"And then you leaving me for that week broke me just the same!" Oswald exclaimed
Edward remebered that week.
He remembered when Oswald would call and just listened to the automated voice he made, just so he could hear his voice. He knew that he had destroyed whatever they had.

"Now I'm sorry about Isabella but lets not act like YOU didn't do the SAME THING , Edward. I'm not trying to justify my actions because I know how selfish I was, but what you did is BEYOND FORGIVEABLE! Now I would like to go back to being tormented and humiliated by Jerome and his idiots." Wait. Did he just say that Jerome Valeska was tormenting him. JEROME VALESKA! The thought made his body tremble in anger.

"Because for some reason I feel more depressed and hurt when I'm around you." Thats enough, Edward thought

"I wonder why." Oswald spat every last word with venom and anger seething through every word.

Edward needed to free Oswald from this prison and his tormentors. He needed a plan. He needed Oswald.

Ed grabbed Oswalds arm, right before he walked through the gate, in a tight but not too much too hurt grip.

"Oswald, if its the last I do, I am going to GET. YOU. OUT. And we are going to kill Sofia falcone.Together."
