Love, Life, Happiness by Belllala99 and Silverwolf

With a slight smile on his face Mark nodded. "Yeah... Thanks, Inuie~" He said, his smile widening. Well, it definitely felt safe with the silverette around. He was... Well, huge, pretty much like a body guard, at least to Mark. Little by little the brunette felt himself relaxing as he looked around once more before the two reached their classroom. Everybody seemed to be... Frightened? Mark frowned slightly and trailed his eyes over the classroom, finally noticing someone sitting at the back of the classroom. Black hair was everything that could be seen from behind the hood. It couldn't have been him... No way... Right?..

[silverwolf]

Inuie tightens his grip unknowingly when he sees the new kid. Inuie has had a bad time with this kid before and he was one of the causes of Inuie's trauma. Yet all Inuie can think about is protecting Mark his beloved. He steers Mark into the classroom and leads him to there seats. One good thing is that the seats are in the front and right next to each other. Inuie releases Marks hand and pulls his books for the class out of his bag. After that he glances at Mark with a comferting smile but this smile isn't just for Mark but also for himself as well.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark can feel the newcomer's gaze on him all the time. It was like they were piercing right through him... They made him shiver. Deciding to just follow Inuie into their seats he sat down on the chair and took out his books, his ears catching the faint sound of someone walking down the stairs. The brunette tensed up once the guy stopped next to them. Slowly Mark lifted his eyes, meeting with yellowish-green ones. "Weell, isn't this my little slut?~" The guy purred out, a smirk gracing his face. It actually was... Was him... Mark swallowed hard and tightly gripped onto Inuie's hand, unable to say a word. Right then the guy looked at the silverette and grinned. "My, isn't today pleasant, I-nu-ie?~"

[silverwolf]

Inuie is frozen to his seat but when the boy says his name he glares at him and says in a voice that is so unlike himself that it startles him, "Don't you dare call Mark that again and leave us be. You already destroyed my life once leave me in peace." Inuie sees the guys hand move up and uncontrollably he flinches. This is the guy who forced him into a medical ward because he was called unstable. there they found his other personality and a weird ability.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark took in a hitched breath and tightly gripped onto his lover's hand. This guy was named Tamako, right? Yeah, that was definitely the name of his biggest nightmare... Tamako then glanced at their hands and frowned. "Oh, little slut, is this your boooyfriend?~ The big guy with a split personality, mm?" The black-haired guy said and grinned widely. "I'll call you whatever I want, you got it?~" Tamako said, while Mark couldn't let out a sound. With the other hand he squeezed his wrist where the cuts were, biting his lip. He wanted for this to end now...

[silverwolf]

Inuie does something even more frightening. he goes into himself just like he had before when everyone learned of his other persona. But both he and his other persona only want to protect Mark. Inuie attacks Tamako, punching him in the face. he hits him on the scar that WOLF Inuie's other persona had left a long time ago. Wolf has a deeper voice and bright gold eyes that look like they're glowing. he slams his fist into Tamako over and over and finally when the boy falls to the ground he says in a voice that sounds like an ocean storm "You can say all you want about me but you say, touch or come near Mark then i will rip you to pieces." Wolf looks at Mark and adds "Inuie wanted to keep me hidden, I'm Wolf," Wolf kisses Marks hand and says "He was afraid that you would hate him and when he say that you had things you didn't want to say he decided to hid me until you told him what you were hiding. I only appeared because Inuie was struggling to stay sane around this man and he wanted to protect you. Please don't hate him"

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark almost yelped in suprise when his lover just leaped into and attacked Tamako! With frightened eyes the thin male wayched his boyfriend... No, that wasn't him anymore. His eyes were different - they were... Ones like wolf's. He just watched the man slam his fist into Tamako until the later fell onto the ground. His voice just sent shivers through Mark's body... All he could think about was how frightening the man was. His fear was made at least a little bit less once the man explained everything. But... Why would he ever hate Inuie? "I just... I could never hate him... O-or you, I'm not even sure how am I supposed to say it now..." There he swallowed hard and stood up. "...And I don't think the people here will take this... Lightly..." The brunette muttered out, looking at everyone in the classroom. Most of them seemed extremely frightened, he could see some girls barely keeping consciousness. What would they do now?

[silverwolf]

Wolf shifted back into Inuie. In response Inuie pulls Mark out of the classroom when they are away from prying eyes he asks, "What happened." before Mark can answer he adds, "I'll take care of how things are going to handled. You can tell me once I get back... Please don't go back into that room or anywhere near Tamako...Please!" Although from the way Mark was acting he really doesn't have much to worry about. If you really want you can go to our room while i explain what happened. I've had to do it before and the school new about my alternate Persona." Inuie grips Marks hand tightly and says "It'll be ok."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark nodded weakly at the request. He was still surprised... Still slightly scared of what had just happened. With a soft sigh the brunette nodded, with one hand holding his wrist - the cuts hidden under the bandana. He could feel some blood running out of the cuts... He must've gripped onto them a little too tight. Still, he couldn't pull his arm away... In fact, he had to do it again. Now. It always helped him clear out his thoughts, it would help him now, too. He was sure about that. Without saying a word the smaller male muttered out somethingh about bathroom and went away, slipping into one cabinet. With shaky hands he took out a small piece of metal he carried around, took off the bandana and slowly made a deep cut in his wrist. The brunette simply watched as blood dripped down to the floor, making sure none of it got on his clothes. He just couldn't stop doing this...

[silverwolf]

Inuie takes a deep breath as he walks down the hall to the principles office. Inuie looks angred as well as sad and says to the principle, "I and my friend Mark have a lot of trouble being around the new kid in our class, Tamako." He spits the word kid and his name. "He's the reason I was hospitalized in the first place. You let him get near me or my friend Mark and I can't say for sure whether or not I can control my other persona. Today was more from shock and how he was bad mouthing my friend Mark. If Tamako even comes close to Mark I may not be able to stop myself. I will leave for today and you better do something about him by tomorrow or you will loose two students."

 

The principal looks at Inuie dumbfounded unable to say anything for a long time. After a while he says, "O-Ok. I'll see what I can do."

 

"Don't just see," Inuie adds,"Actually do something about it!!" At that Inuie storms out of the office and goes looking for Mark. He said something about using the bathroom.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

The brunette slowly made another cut, biting his lip. The pain was slowly kicking in... Usually when he did this, he wouldn't feel pain at first. It always came a bit later... With a shaky breath Mark sat and watched the beautiful dark red drops roll down his wrist, dropping on the ground. This was too little... This much didn't help at all. Mark then made another cut. And then another. And another... And another... Soon blood was flowing out of the cuts, along with a few tears from Mark's eyes. Why did he have to show up?

[silverwolf]

Inuie gets to the bathroom and opens the door. He looks under the stall doors to find Marks shoes and he finds them, with a small pool of blood in front of them. Inuie jumps when he sees that. he rips open the door to see Mark holding a small piece of metal, tears coming from his eyes and blood coming from his wrist. "Mark" Inuie says with surprise, fear and sadness in his voice, "Don't scar me like that." I thought that Tamako got to you." Inuie walks over to Mark and holds onto his hands. you don't have to do this. you can tell me when you feel sad, angry, or even fearful. If you want to hurt someone then I will be your punching bag. If you want to cry I'll be your shoulder. If you want to hid then I will shield you. You are mine and I am yours, So Please don't do this anymore?"

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark flinched in surprise as his lover ripped the door open. He looked up with fearful eyes, his body shaking slightly. What would Inuie do?.. Would his other-self come out again? Truth be told, Mark was too scared of that... Wolf, was that how it called himself?

 

Once Inuie started talking, more and more tears gathered in Mark's eyes, flowing down his cheeks afterwards. His hands were shaking, but he held onto the metal piece in his hand. Stop? It was already too late for Mark to stop doing this. He was already used to it, it was... Like a drug to him. Maybe even worse. An addiction. A deadly addiction. The brunette knew he should stop doing it, but he couldn't. He tugged his arm towards himself, silently asking for Inuie to let go. He couldn't... No, he didn't want to stop.

[silverwolf]

Inuie is startled by how Mark reacts. He grits his teeth fighting with his own anger. That's when it happens... he starts to cry. "We can get over this together, we can get over it, but please don't pull away." Inuie hates how he feels like he can't do anything. Also how he seems weak at this time. Normally Wolf would come out at times like this so Inuie wouldn't feel this way but Wolf Knows better then to come out know. "Please" he continues to plead, "Please don't pull away. To many people have already.

 

Seeing Marks Fearful face he turns away feeling that there is nothing he can do. Why did this always have to happen to people who are around me!! Inuie thinks to himself then he says "I can't look at you right now. My mother died from cutting herself so its always hard." He chocks on the last sentence.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark took in a hitched breath and shaked his head. "...I can't stop, I... Inuie..." He said, his voice shking from the tears still flowing down his face. "I just can't..." He looked away from Inuie, from the tears rolling down his lover's face. He wasn't able to take it... And what did the other mean by saying that too many people had pulled away already?

 

The brunette covered his face with his palms as the tears kept on rolling down his cheeks, now mixing with the blood flowing from his wrist. "If you can't look at me... Just.... Just don't..." Mark whispered out, only making more tears come out. His body was trembling, some blood got on his face as well. He felt horrible because of this... Inuie wasn't even supposed to know about this... This was supposed to be his secret!

[silverwolf]

Inuie shakes at that. he turns around and says "To many times I've just turned my head away from stuff like this. I wont do it again. He pulls Mark into a tight embrace and says "I wont let you go. never! We can work together... I have things to get over and so do you... we can help each other because i don't want to let you go.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

A strangled sob left Mark's mouth and he gripped onto his lover's shirt, his tears making the shirt damp. The blood was still dripping on the floor, the brunette could feel the cuts stinging... Mark burried his face into the tall male's chest, his bofy trembling. "I can't... I can't get over it... It's... I-It's been so long..." The brunette started, unable to say anything else as his sobs cut down anything else he wanted to say. He was pathetic..

[silverwolf]

Inuie hugs Mark tighter and says "You can if you try and believe." He places his hand on the back of Marks head. "If you can't believe that you can do it then believe that we can do it together. Because you're not alone." After a few moments he moves his hand to Marks wrist and pulls out some antiseptic. Inuie starts to rub the antiseptic onto Marks wound and says "Believe in me and my love for you..." he adds into Marks hair "Please?"

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark winces in pain and pulls his arm back, his eyes filled with tears. "It hurts..." The brunette whispered out while holding onto his wrist. Inuie was a little bit too forceful... With his lower lip trembling Mark reached out for the antiseptic. "I'll... I'll do it m-myself.." The younger male whispered out while waiting for his lover to pass him it. Well, there was another reason he wanted to do it himself. Honestly, the brunette was still scared of his lover...

[silverwolf]

Inuie can tell that Mark is scared of him and hands over the antiseptic once Mark has a hold of it Inuie pulls his hands away and says "I need to leave school... You can come with me. I told the Principle already so its ok. He sighs and turns away. "I'll wait for you outside the door... So please hurry." Without another word Inuie goes outand leans on the wall near the door. He thinks to himself, Nice Wolf, now Mark is afraid of me"

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark softly starts taking care of the cuts, biting his lower lip. Soon he was done and just wrapped the bandana around his wrist, like he always did. With a soft sigh the brunette looks at the puddle of blood between his legs. It was of the beautiful dark red color... Mark had always liked red. Especially dark red. It always seemed so mysterious and... Kind of secuctive.

 

Mark soon stood up and picked up the metal piece, putting it into his pocket... Just in case he needed it again... The thin male then exited the bathroom stall and glanced at Inuie, immediately turning his eyes away. "...Let's go.."

[silverwolf]

Inuie walks silently beside Mark not knowing what to say. He puts in his headphones and tries to hide his sadness. This isn't how they normally were and he feels the space that opened up between them more then when they first met. He glances over at Mark feeling lonely. Never before had Inuie Felt so lonely while being near his love

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mark noticed how his lover just put in his earphones, as if he was ignoring the brunette. The thin male sniffled softly and put his hands into his pockets, walking with his head down. With a soft, shaky sigh the brunette rubbed the last traces of tears from his eyes. This wasn't how they were supposed to be...

 

Gathering his courage the smaller male reached out to hold his lover's hand. Sure, he was still scared, but... He still had to face it.

[silverwolf]

Inuie jumps a little bit when Mark takes his hand but holds the hand back loosely. He for some reason is to afraid to talk or look at Mark so all he does is hold his hand.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

The brunette bit his lip a little bit when he felt his lover jump at his touch. Mark took in a hitched breath and turned to Inuie. "Inuie... I-I'm sorry..." The thin male muttered out while not letting his eyes off his lover. He really was sorry... He shouldn't have been scared of Inuie... Though he couldn't really help it.
