oc story collab with @ROACHWARTOOTH TW: mention of violence, scars(both SH and from being attacked), implied child abuse(emotional abuse) Characters Tristan(Trist) Soledad Kira Jain
Tristan violently woke up gasping for air "It's- it's ok, it was just another dream" he reassured himself, he'd been having the night terrors since he got out of the hospital to the point where he now has his own schedule for when he wakes up from them, he stands up from his warm bed stretching in the coldness of the house then he slowly makes his way to the kitchen but stops at Cass's room he grabs the door knob and slowly twists it open staring in to the dark abyss of the room "He's not here anymore... he won't hurt me again" he says to himself while he starts to slowly trace along the scar around his stomach where he had been stabbed he closes the door and continues to make his way through the dark house after finishing his glass of water and taking the medicine the doctor prescribed him he started to walk back to his room but noticed the dim light of Kira's room peeking out from under their door and the faint sound of them crying which of course immediately concerned him, Tristan walked closer to the door and knocked on it then waited a few seconds before opening the door and peeking his head through the door crack Kira was fine well... from an outside perspective but Tristan knows Kira the most out of everyone and he knows that something is wrong "Hey..." Tristan says walking in to the room and closing the door behind him "Uh hey what's up its like 3 something in the morning" Kira says watching Tristan sit on the bed "Is anything wrong, you can talk to me if you need to I'm always here for you and I've always been here for you" Tristan says resting his hand on their shoulder, Kira stares at Tristan's hand for a second and then back at him "Dude why are being weird nothing is going on..." "KIRA STOP LYING TO ME I HEARD YOU CRYING STOP ACTING LIKE YOUR PROBLEMS DON'T MATTER!" Tristan says raising his voice at Kira which he's never done to anyone let alone Kira before "I- I'm sorry there's just been a lot going on and happening and I- I don't want to bother you guys with my stupid issues but I'm just so sick of having to be the happy go lucky energetic one and holding everything inside..." "Kira you don't have to do that to yourself there not stupid problems there your emotions and they matter what's going on" Kira took a deep sigh and started to tear up "Just- *sniff* I- I miss Cass and I constantly feel selfish for saying that but he was like family to me all of you guys are but he hurt you and everyone else in different ways but I can't help but to miss him*sniff* and-*sniff* and my dad called me last week and...*sigh* Tristan my- my mom died 2 weeks ago a- apparently she had some sort of cancer and they found it way too late to do anything about it and is- is it bad that I'm happy about it.. cause she hurt me so much and never treated me like a person but like a tool I was never good enough for her or my dad I was always too much for EVERYONE else but NEVER enough for them and I'm just so f█████g sick of everything-" Kira unable finish what their saying they cant help but to completely break down crying and shaking "Hey, hey its ok its- its ok" Tristan says hugging Kira as tight as he can "I miss Cass too even though he stabbed me and it's not selfish of you to miss him, we all do and it's completely valid for you to be happy about your mom she's hurt you so much, both of your parents have, their the reason you've done... this to yourself" Tristan says holding one of Kira's wrist and gently tracing around the self inflicted scars on them, he's probably one of if not the only person Kira trusts looking at them let alone touching them"...Hey how about we walk to the 24 hour gas station and get some ice cream" Tristan says pushing Kira's glasses up and wiping the warm tears of if their face *sniff*"I'd- I'd like that alot" AAAAAAAAAAA MY BABIES I LOVE THEM SO MUCH I uh.. also projected a bit too much into Kira(victim blaming themself, thinking that their mental illness is just their stupid problems, insecure about their SH scars, forces themself to be happy for the sake of the people close to them the list goes on) but I had lots of fun writing these 2 cuz their very dear to me I love them the most out of the entire band <3 BARBECUE CHICKEN ALERT(bro I cant stop it's actually my biggest vocal stim that i've had in awhile)
