Im sorry. . . 

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Everything was dark, the only light coming from the distant town, the light casting a soft light within the bedroom. Red sat on his bed while he hugged his pillow tightly, his eyes closed. He was drifting off into nothing. Not sleep, he was letting Vincent take over, he was become restless, he needed to be free. 

Red slipped into a dark vision before opening his eyes and throwing the pillow back near the headboard. Vincent then formed before his own eyes, seeming to made of the darkness. "Hello." Red gulped "H-Hello. ." Vincent then glided over to Red hovering over him. "Why didn't you let me out earlier?" He asked. His voice deep and threatening. "I'm sorry. . . I was on a date with John. ." Red asked trying not to stutter. 

"That's no excuse! He doesn't love you anyway!" He yelled at him showing his large teeth. "Yes he does!" Red yelled back. Vincent only chuckled. "If he loved you then why is he at Adams and not here preventing me from coming?" Red didn't respond. He chuckled again. "He doesn't love you and never will. Hes just using you, wanting your subscribers and fame." Tears started to form in Reds eyes as he let the words of the misty figure sink in. 

"No, you lie." Red said as he reached for a orange bottle on his nightstand. The bottle read, "Anti-Depressants" In fine bold print. Red unscrewed the cap and dropped a pill in his hands. Vincent growled and bit Red on the arm, making Red drop the pill. Then suddenly smacking Reds other hand with his misty tail, making the bright colorful bottle fly and hit the door. The plastic hit the door and shattered in a million pieces, the pills going in many directions. Red gasped as Vincent chuckled. "You're not trying to kill me are you?" Vince asked with a creepy smile. 

"No Vincent, Im not. . . " Red said in defeat, hanging his head, looking at the marks Vincent made on his arm. Long red gashes dripped blood that trailed down his arm. Red sighed as pain sparked through his limb. "Good. Cause I don't want to leave. You're my friend Red and I'm going to drain every last drop of your happiness out of you before i move on to my next puppet." Red stayed silent as quiet tears dripped down his cheeks. Vincent only laughed. "Why you sad Red? You sad because of your stupid mistakes? Thinking that people loved you? Thinking you had friends? Thinking you were loved?" Red stayed quiet as he continued, looking at the floor. "You stupid pathetic worthless waste of space. You weren't meant to be on this planet. You don't belong. Always being the lonely kid on the playground that no one wanted to talk to. Knowing your mother loved the dog more than she ever loved you. Always being over powered by your siblings. Always felling alone." 

"Barney never loved you. . . he's using you Red. Cant you see that?" Red let out a broken sob escape his lips. Vincent chuckled. Red then fell to the floor in a heap, crying softly. He pulled the blanket with him, closing his eyes as he hear it land next to him. "You were a mistake, hell, you parents were dating when they had you. Always feeling like your in the way, always the cause of the mistake." Vince said watching Red with a satisfying smile.

Red lay there crying, clutching the carpet under him. Vince hovered over him watching through his cold lifeless white eyes with a huge grin. He then snapped his head towards the door, hearing the front door close with a soft bang. He growled softly but continued to watch Red who did not seem to hear the noise. 

"Reds?" Barney asked, his voice echoing through the apartment. "Hush, say a word and you wont wake up tomorrow." Vincent whispered to Red. Red decided to ignore him and call out to the older male but it only ended in a loud sob. "Reds?" Barney asked standing near the door. Red reached out to the door lazily not moving from his spot. 

"Reds, I'ms comings in." Barney said as he opened the door slowly. Red closed hi eyes, letting more tears slip down his cheeks, as he let his body fall limp. Barney gasped as he saw the many pills scattered on the floor as well as the shiny plastic. 

He looked around the room before noticing Red. "Reds!" Barney yelled as he ran over to him and sat next to him, quickly setting him in his lap. Reds sobs increased as he snuggled into Barneys hold. "Deep breaths. . . deep breaths." Barney cooed as he rubbed his back softly. Reds sobs soon died down but his breathing still heavy. "He's back. . ." Red mumbled as he clutched to his shirt. 

Barney sighed. "Don'ts listens to hims. Your're so much betters thans that. I loves yous very much and I always wills. Yous are the best friend Is ever had, yous are perfects." Barney ended by giving Red a kiss on his forehead. Red smiled as he wiped away some of the extra tears."Thank you."
