Silent tears fell down her cheeks as she stared at the street below hanging on to he railing. The sun casted fiery golden rays into the corners of the city. She closed her eyes and took a breath. 'No one even cares… Several people have walked passed me… No one even asked if I wanted to come down or if I'm okay… I'm not okay. I'm not. No one… No one has ever cared for Misa…' she startled at a deep voice directly next to her ear.
"You want help? I mean. Sometimes it only requires a tiny… Push." A deep voice purred into her ear. As a slender finger gently rested in the center of her back and a tiny amount of pressure.
She gasped and locked eyes with a pair of scarlet irises, "What?"
He took a step back and sighed over dramatically, "Well. I asked you what you were doing… No answer." He rolled his eyes, "Then I asked if you wanted to come on the side that isn't likely to end in a nasty tumble… Then you decided to IGNORE me further. Though. I wonder how big of a splat you'd actually make?" He scratched his neck and flashed a disarming smile.
Misa stared at the odd man in disbelief, 'Did he just verbally wonder how big of a… Splat? He reminds me of him… But… He's very different.'
He hopped the railing and stood next to her, a firm grip on the railing looking down, "Yeah, I'd venture to guess you wouldn't die instantly… Uck. Could you imagine laying there in a pile… Or would you be a puddle, to be honest, from this height you're pretty likely to break almost every bone…" A sinister smile crossed his lips, "Well? Are you going to do it or not? Because if so I definitely want to watch." He gave her a serious stare before bursting into a fit of manic laughter. "I bet… If you had someone who'd listen to you… You wouldn't want to jump."
Misa glanced at him hopefully, "Would you?"
The man smirked, "Hell no. I have enough issues by myself. But, I'm willing to buy you a coffee and let you blubber on about what's bothering you…" He gave her a sincere stare, "Seriously. Let's get the fuck out of here. I've got no where to be and no one to miss me, let's go on an adventure. Some crazy shit. Like swimming with sharks with no cages."
Misa blinked a couple of times, "Are you insane?"
The boy chuckled, "I've been speculated to be as much… What's insane about that? You're about to throw yourself off a bridge, one hundred percent mortality rate, sweetheart, you swimming with sharks with a complete stranger… I'd say that's playing it safe. Fuck it. At this point, the world is your oyster." He stepped back over the railing and held his hand out, "Care to find the pearl?"
Misa gasped slightly and gently rested her hand in his, "Um…"
He gave her a charming smile, "Maybe by the time we're done? We won't feel like shit… Maybe we could see the world for the wondrous mystery it is… As beautiful as it was yesterday, but maybe tomorrow, we can see it in a new perspective."
Misa gave a small smile, "Alright… Lead the way."
He pulled her over the railing and the surrounding people clapped some cheered, "My name is Beyond… What's yours?"
She gave a small smile, "Misa."
