But you have a story.

No choice.

Stronger than others.

Goodbye....my love.

Those words were the only things that would whirl around in my head after my mother had died. Those were her last words to me. I only wish that she told me that sooner. Maybe I wouldn't have hated them for so long. Been so scared of them. Maybe I wouldn't have done what I did.

As the small speech that my mother said to me on her dying breaths echoed through my mind I held my hands over my ears as I fell to my knees as I was sobbing. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. I couldn't do anything, Stein let me stay home after it happened.

After I killed my parents. I've stayed here in my room in my bed. Not moving. Not eating. Not doing anything but rolling around in my self loathing. That's what I've become. Today, however. I decided to get up from bed and walked by the mirror. I looked at my face. My eyes were sunken in and dead looking. There were huge black bags under them from not being able to sleep for days. My lips were pale, thin and cracked from dehydration.

My once beautiful and flowing hair was messy and greasy looking. My skin was pale. From not having nutrients from the sun or the food that my body needs to have to survive. I lifted my shirt and sighed. I was able to see the tops of my ribs. I let my shirt fall and sighed. I walked out of the room and to the bathroom. I can at least look clean on the outside while my soul is filthy.

I got into the shower and let the water was the pain that I had been feeling down the drain. I got out and brushed my hair after towel drying it. I walked to my room with a towel to get dressed and to make dinner.

Stein walked through the door and nearly hit the floor. "You left your room." he said. I looked at him and gave a nod. He walked over and fell to his knees and hugged me.

I wrapped my arms around his neck slowly. "I don't think I've ever been so worried or so scared in my life over one person and what they could do." he said.

I played with his hair. He looked at me and kissed my cheek. "Please don't ever do that again." he said. I nodded. He ran his thumb across my cheek and gave a small smile. He pulled away and went to the hallway. "Call me up from the lab when dinner is ready." he said. I hummed in response and I heard the metal door that was downstairs open and close.

I began to remember what my mother had said. I felt broken. More broken than when I was found by Stein that night. When I left the asylum I was happy I was gone. I felt safer. Even though I live with a mad scientist. Better than people who torture me. It didn't take long for me to break down and sit in the floor of the kitchen with my hand over my ears and my teeth clenched as I tired to forget and zone out the words of my mothers dying breaths. A guess during my break down the food caught on fire and the alarms went off causing Stein to have to leave his lab and find me.

He put the pan in the sink and turned it on to drown the flames before he looked at me. I was a shaking, sobbing mess. I was in a ball with my feet crossed to feel safer. I couldn't focus on anything. Not even when Stein knelt down to get me to calm down. He had my wrists in his callused hands as he was being gentle. He spoke softly and brought my (e/c)  eyes up to look at his emerald ones. He brought my hands from my ears as he got me to stop crying and focus on him but I was still on the floor.

He looked at me and spoke gently. "What is it?" He asked.

I sighed and looked at his eyes. "I can't live my life like I'm supposed to anymore because I keep hearing the words Tenma said before she died. Before I... killed her." I said as a tear rolled down my cheek.

His thumb moved to wipe it away before he picked me up and sat me on the counter. The shaking had ceased but a few tears remained to fall.

He had his hands on my hips as he looked at me as he wondered what to do. I knew that with him seeing me like this. So broken. Was killing him. But I couldn't do much to fix it. I had no idea where to even begin. So that meant it was up to him to see if he could reverse it. He kissed me without a word. My mind went blank as he did and my heart fluttered as all the dark thoughts were moved from my soul.

He pulled away. I gave a small smile. "Feel better?" He asked.

I nodded and he smiled and kissed me again. "Good."

He looked at the pan and gave a small sigh. I looked around his arm and leaned a bit before sighing. "I'm sorry for ruining your pan." I said.

He looked at me and ruffled my hair. "It's just a pan." He said.

I nodded and looked down. He kissed my cheek and I looked at him. "Wanna order a pizza instead?" He asked.

My stomach growled and pizza sounded delicious right now. I nodded and he smiled before walking off to place the order. I hopped off the counter and sighed lightly. I decided to look at my grades. I haven't been at school for almost two weeks and never spoke to Stein for that time either. They had dropped from their As and Bs to Cs and Ds. I sighed and looked at Stein as he walked back around the corner.

"I didn't know my grades got so bad." I mumbled.

He walked over and put his hands on my shoulders and kissed my head.

"I can help you get them back up if you'd like." He said.

I sighed and turned around to hug him. "Thanks, dear." I said. He put his hand on the back of my head and smiled. "Anything for my darling."
