You turn your phone off and attempt to stand up, making your way to your closet. Honestly, you were a huge mess. Food stained clothes are what had covered your body at the moment. With a sigh, you put on your best clothes. This was for your dead girlfriend Aradia after all; you must at least make an attempt at making yourself look presentable. You make your way down the stairs before being interrupted by a male with messy blonde hair, wielding a skateboard. Your brother.. Mituna. Groaning, you continue to make your way down the stairs when a sudden hand grabs you by the shoulder. You were hoping you wouldn't have to deal with this.

"Hey, Sollux! Where are you going all so fancy?" Mituna had asked, poking at your suit. Breathe, just breathe. Everything will be fine. Everything will be fine.

"I'm.." You pause a little, losing your balance as you collapse to the ground, the whole room going dark as you fall. Darker and darker.

My my, Sollux Captor, you've failed. Just face it you can't do this. No matter how hard you try. You simply cannot get over this tragedy. She's in a much better place anyway. Who knows if she even misses you. Who would miss such a sad soul like you? Just think about it. You're going to burn in hell all alone, wishing you haven't lived the rest of your life so gloomy. Why not turn that frown upside down and actually try to live this time?

Your body twitches as you flutter your eyes open, looking around at the white imprisonment. "Ah. Where am I?" you whisper quietly, an aching feeling coming across you. To your realization, you were in a hospital. You slowly breathe, a white figure appearing in front of you. She looked very familiar. Her lips moved slowly, sitting down on your hospital bed.

"S-Sollux?" the figure silently said, appearing to scooch closer to you. Bringing her angelic hand close to your face. Lightly stroking your face as a giant smile came across her face. Your heart seemed to race faster, opening and closing your eyes with divine joy.

"Aradia…?" you say slowly, feeling your heartbeat race even faster. "Aradia? Aradia!" you start to shout her name a few times. The machine next to you starting to beep at a faster speed.

"Sollux." She whispered, her angelic eyes staring into your mismatched eyes. "Oh Sollux." The white figure continued to move her hand around your hair. "I.. I have to go now. I have to go back home." The figure spoke again, her expression looking saddened this time.

"H-home..?" you repeat back, stuttering on your words.

"Yes home." The angelic figure spoke lightly, looking up as to hint to what her home now was. "I love you Sollux..", was her final sentence before departing.

"I.. I love you too Aradia!" You screamed, letting your emotions out, looking up into the ceiling. You collapse back into bed, breathing heavily. The sound of silence was soon broken by a sudden voice.

"Sollux, are you feeling alright buddy?" the man dressed in a white coat and tie asked, putting his hand over your forehead. You flinch, soon realizing the man.

"Dad?" You ask, feeling unsure of yourself. A wave of pain flooded your head, causing you to groan in pain. The man nodded, allowing you to speak. "Why am I in the hospital..? What happened?" You say, confusion in your voice.

"Well. Mituna had told me that you suddenly blacked out on him and fell down the stairs.. It was too late for him to stop you from falling. Your father and I were very worried; we quickly took you to the hospital. You've been in a coma for a week Sollux." He says, finishing his sentence. This makes no sense at all. It felt like only yesterday that you were getting ready to go to the Megido house, except, you didn't go. Sigh. The most unfortunate things happen to you.

The italicized wording were the voices in Sollux's head. Just to make it clear ^_^ Thank you for reading. I apologize this chapter took so long.
