I was shocked at his question. It wasn't filled with worry, it was filled with anger and sadness. Why is he angry? What did I do?
"I was just at a restaurant with my friends," I said with confusion laced into my voice. He didn't say anything to me, just stared with that harsh look of his. "Why do you ask?"
"Oh, because of a boy, Greg," he said as he leaned down closer to my face. I leaned back a bit. What about Greg?
Wait...
"How do you know about Greg? What did he do?"
"Because I heard what he said, I was there," Night Ninja said as he took a step closer to me, causing me to step back. He heard what Greg said? Is that why he's acting like this? But, he should know that I wouldn't leave him.
โกFlashBackโก
โกNight Ninja's POVโก
I was following (Y/N), just to make sure she got to the bus stop safely. The first time she caught me following her, she teased the hell out of me. But, she knew the reason why I did it, so we promised each other that we would only watch out for her at certain times and places.
This is one of them.
I was about to walk away after seeing that she made it okay when I heard a voice calling out for her. I looked back and saw Greg running to her.
"(Y/N)! Wait up!" He stopped in front of her just a few feet away. I couldn't really hear the full conversation, but I did hear something that made my heart shatter with anger and sadness.
"Uh, I like you. Like, love you, more than a friend. I know you don't feel the same, but I just wanted to let you know, please don't hate me after this!"
I felt so angry and sad at the same time. I wanted to go down there and tell him that she's mine and mine only, but as well as I wanted to cry right there. I had to run away from the place so I didn't have to hear her answer.
I'm pretty sure I knew what the answer was.
โกPresentโก
โก(Y/N)'s POVโก
So, that's why he's acting like this. He thought I was gonna leave him. But, why? I've tried my best to make it obvious that I wouldn't leave him.
"You didn't hear the full conversation though-," I tried to speak but was cut off by Night Ninja.
"Because I thought that you liked him back! I thought you were gonna leave me for your best friend!" he exclaimed as he got closer to my face, his actions caused me to bump into the door making it shut fully.
I was honestly getting scared of him. He was starting to get aggressive about this situation. I was gonna go around him, until he slammed his hand next to my head, making me jump.
"So, tell me, do you like him? And don't lie to me," he said with anger laced in his voice. I never noticed, but the bright blue of his eyes, the beautiful shade of sky blue, the white shine of his eyes as if the sun was shining down on the clear water, showing off the beautiful life...
Was gone.
I was on the verge of crying at this point, I didn't want him to hurt me. He was scaring me so bad that my legs were shaking. He had never acted like this, so I didn't know what to do. So, I did the unthinkable.
I kicked him, causing him to fall backward on the floor. I took my chance and ran away. I heard him groan in pain, but did not stop. I knew he would get quickly since I heard his footsteps behind me.
I ran as fast as I could, but just so happen to get pulled back into an alley. I felt Night Ninja's hands around my mouth to block my screams as he slammed against the hard wall. My back due to the force he applied to the push.
"No! Please! Please don't hurt me!" I exclaimed as tears started falling out of my closed eyes. He had a scowl on his face as his eyes were on my face. "Why are you like this?! You should know that I wouldn't leave you!"
"Why am I like this? Why am I like this?!" Night Ninja said as he slammed his fist next to my head, causing me to jump and shake even more. He was scary when he was mad, I always thought he wouldn't hurt me. I was wrong I guess.
"I'm like this because I've had people come and go in my life! Everyone I loved left me alone, even my own parents left me alone! I thought I would never find anybody to love and have them stay in my life! That's why I'm like this!"
At this point, he looked like he was about to break down. I could tell how much pain he was in, I just wanted to hold him and tell him that I'm not going anywhere, to tell him how much I love him.
But, I couldn't right now. I just stared with wide eyes, his eyes soon widen as well. He realized what he's done, he just hurt the love of his life. He hurt his (Y/N). He felt like shit, he just wanted to run away and apologize so many times to her and ask for her to not hate him.
But, he was so weak to do so.
Night Ninja let go of my arms, causing me to fall due to how hard he was holding me against the wall, and brought his fist back down to his side as he started to shake. Night Ninja's eyes were still dark, but the bright blue was coming back. But, it wasn't the happy blue I know and love, it was a depressing blue.
I saw him start crying, hard. I felt like shit for kicking him back there, he does not deserve any of the pain he's gone and going through. I slowly got up and saw him fall to the ground, a sobbing mess.
I slowly walked to him. "Night Ninja, I'm sorry. Why didn't you tell me any of this?" I heard him sniffling as he continued to cry with his back facing me.
"I didn't want to be a burden to you, you deserve better than me," he said quietly. I started to get small tears in my eyes. He felt like this all this time, and he didn't tell me because he didn't want to be a burden to me?
"Night Ninja-," I reached out my hand to touch his shoulder, but he flinches harshly. I retract my hand, thinking he didn't want me to touch him at this second.
"I'm a monster, I'm weak, you need someone who's stronger than me," he said as he started crying again. I frown.
"Night Ninja, you are strong, and you are most certainly not a monster," I say as I take a step towards his body. He finally got up and faced me. He walked to me until his face was really close to mine.
"Did I scare you earlier? Did I?"
"...yes, you did. But-," I couldn't finish before Night Ninja exclaimed.
"See?! Even I scared the love of my life! My own girlfriend! I can't do anything right!"
"You saved my life, did you not?" I ask him.
"Yes, but this is different."
"Night Ninja, please-," I reach out and touch his shoulder, but he pushed me back making me fall to the ground hard.
"Don't touch me! Please! Just get away from a monster like me!" I started crying again as I just sat there watching him crying hard again. I felt like shit, and I didn't know why. I did nothing wrong, but yet somehow I felt like I did.
A minute passed and we were still here. Night Ninja finally broke the silence.
"Get back home, before you get hurt again," he says, not even looking at me. "And don't try and make me come with you, I just don't want to hurt you again."
I slowly got up as he started climbing up the ladder and onto the roof. I knew he was running away from me, so all I did was just stand there. I started to cry so hard to the point that I was screaming, screaming for Night Ninja to come back to me.
But, he never did.
After almost 10 minutes of sitting there just crying, I finally had the strength to get up and walk home. On the way home, I thought about Night Ninja and the good times we had together.
Now, he's gone. The relationship is over.
I finally made it home and walked to my room. As soon as I got on my bed, I started crying so hard that I cried myself to sleep.
He was mine, and I was his.
Not anymore, though.
Here's a song that probably fits this chapter with how Night Ninja feels. This is sad :(
