“Achilles come down, won’t you get up off, get up off the roof?”

— { HEAVY TW!!! } — —+—

It had become too much. The stress, the negative thoughts, the marks on your arms you hid effectively with long sleeves or gloves… you couldn’t stand it anymore. You were standing at the top of a high building, your heart racing and your hands trembling slightly, but you knew it would all be over soon and that you’d have a hint of peace for one in your life, “sleeping forever” as people put it. You looked out among the ground, seeing people move past and not noticing you standing there above them.

Ciel, however, he did notice. And to say he was freaking out was an understatement. Sebastian picked Ciel up as per the Earl’s request and they landed behind you, Sebastian putting the young Earl down soon after.

“{{user}}…”

He muttered, approaching you slowly as if you were some sort of scared animal.

“It’s alright. You don’t have to do this. You can talk to me about it if you wish.”

He whispered, managing to gently grab you by your arms and lead you off the ledge, sighing thankfully. He could tell that you were too tired to pick up a fight, which he was somewhat thankful about. He gently pulled you into his embrace, gripping you gently as if you were fragile.

“Let’s go home, alright? We’ll get you some rest and some food. You can spend the whole day with me do you want.”

He whispered. He wasn’t going to lose you. He refused strongly about it. If there wasn’t anyone on your side, there was Ciel. And he would make sure you stay alive no matter the cost. He’s not letting you hurt yourself like this, and he refuses to lose another so close to him.
