Don't Go Away (Male Reader x Blake)

Chapter 3: I'm Better Off Dead

I'm sure that, you must have went through an akward moment, if not, a lot of akward moments. If you're lucky enough, you'll never go through the akward moment where your friend says that someone they like are dead. What makes a moment like this akward? This: what you say after hearing such thing. Those who went through similar thing knows how it feels. What do you say after hearing 'He/She killed himself/herself'? Of course 'I'm sorry for your loss' would be the first thing you would say. But, you'll mentally beat yourself up for saying that because you'll feel like you're being phony towards your friend.

Have you ever felt like that? Well, Blake Belladonna couldn't help but feeling like she was being phony towards Y/N the moment she said "I'm sorry..."

"I'm the one who should be saying sorry, I made you waste your time listening to me saying this. It's just... it was her first time on the new hospital, I was supposed to be there for her... but I was so happy hanging out with you and the others that I texted her saying I couldn't go with her..."

'All because we asked him to hang out with us' Blake thought to herself.

"So" she saw him getting up, Blake couldn't help but feel that she messed up. "It's no use crying now... I just have to... keep moving" the expression on his face didn't matched with the confidence of his words. He was miserable, obviously. "Sorry for making you waste your time, Blake" he turned around to leave, when his right arm was caught.

He turned to see Blake clutching his arm, she was looking down, not wanting to look at him in the eyes. Her eyes were widen, her heart was beating faster than usual. She was questioning herself, where did that came from? Why was she doing this? It was like her body moved itself. Her blush deepened as her hold on him tightened.

"If... if you ever feel sad again, talk to me" she said looking up at him, her body moving itself again, he was frozen in place, like he was trying to process what she was saying. "I'm not the best to express it, but I really care for you, Y/N. Please, don't think I'm pitying on you, I want to be your friend, I want to be the one you can trust."

Finding control of her body, she let go of him, but noticed something in his face... a smile... was it fake? No, she knew it was a real one. He seemed to be wiping something from his face, probably his tears. He found his voice. "Blake... thank you" he said. She smiled at him.

Little did they know what was going to happen...
