A/N: Sorry this one took me some time to write. In the middle of this I got like 5 new ideas and started to write those instead. But i regained my focus!

I DO NOT own Mystic Messenger or it's characters. I just can't help but use them as writing inspiration and practice.

Yoosung: What are you doing to us!

Mc: This doesn't look good.

Yoosung: Why am I the bad guy!

Me: I don't your bad Yoosung don't worry

Yoosung: Then why do this!

Me: Is it weird that I just love unhappy endings and this is the sole reason for it?

Yoosung: YOU MONSTER!


Part 3

The clocks reads 8:17 am on a Saturday morning. The coffee is about to finish it's brew, the eggs are almost ready to be flipped, the toaster oven went off singling the bread is ready, and the sky appears clear of all clouds. Letting its ray's warm up the summer mornings air. Mc read that it will be getting into the high's 90's today (32-37 Celsius) with 15% Humility. She woke up early. Earlier then she should have. 6 am if she was being honest. Barely enough sleep to feel rested, but She just couldn't sleep during the night. She tossed and turned letting her mind overthink about what is to come in the morning.

Her just wouldn't rest, making everything a little harder to deal with. Everything was still so normal. Nothing was different about their home or the outside world, but Mc felt as though she was in the eye of a hurricane. I was peaceful for now, but for how long?

She finishes with the eggs, deciding to make an egg sandwich with extra bacon. Knowing once Yoosung wakes up he'll be not only hungry but maybe hungover. 'God was this really ok? Should I even be making breakfast? Maybe Sunday would be better..' Mc shakes her head at the intrusive thoughts she'd been having all morning. She made up her mind early this morning that she needed to end things with Yoosung. Or at least let him know she needed time away. Every so often she would get worried if what she was doing was acceptable.

She wanted to desperately call up Jaehee and get her tow cents on the matter, but Mc knew that would be unfair. Telling Jaehee now that things haven't been great with Yoosung, would be putting too much on her. She was his friend first after all. Telling her would just make things uncomfortable, not to mention Zen would probably hear it as well. Her and Zen have been so close lately, they tell each other everything. There is no doubt in Mc mind, that Jaehee wouldn't consult with him on the matter. She loved them both, but she didn't think she had the energy to explain things not just once but over and over again on why she was doing this. 'Yeah telling them after i go through with it will be better.' Mc thought to herself.

As she placed the sandwich down at the table she turned to get the coffee ready for Yoosung as well. She was going to miss this. Taking care of him on days where he needed her. At the same time the thought of Jumin's sad face popped in her mind as well. If she stayed and continued this Mc feared she too would have the same face as he does now. Miserable with how her life is going.

Before she can get down on herself even more Yoosung enters the kitchen. He looks like he has seen better days. He rubs his eyes, yawning a good morning to MC, before leaning down to kiss her forehead. Thanking her for the meal. He sits down almost immediately scraffing down the food before him. He looks like a child eating, getting crumbs and egg yolk all over the table and his shirt. Mc watched him wondering how much she'll miss seeing his goofing face once she'll leave and if he'll be able to cook decent meals for himself.

Yoosung was happily taking in the taste of Mc great cooking. She always made the best meals on the mornings after he drank too much. He had a small headache but the food she prepared was already filling him with energy for the day to recover. That was until he saw how intently she was staring at him. She looked almost gloomy. Then Yoosung got this feeling he messed up again. He always seemed to did that when he drinks too much. He forgets what's allowed and what isn't. He tried to remember last night, wondering how they both got home, but he could only remember up until him and Zen where chucking beers for every game they lost to Seven playing Nimtendo :Smash Em' Bros.

Fear was creeping in and Yoosung felt like he was going to hurl. Unsure if it was the hangover's doing or his worries. Was she sad cause he did something stupid again? The last time Yoosung got too drunk, he ended up sharing stories with Seven about his and Mc's 'Private time'. He knew it was dumb and never should've said anything without asking how she would feel about it first. Yoosung had never seen her so angry when she found out, he nevered waited to upset her like that again.

"Mc? Did I- did I mess up last night? Like did I say anything I shouldn't have? Cause if I did I'm so sor-" Mc cuts him off promptly.

"It wasn't about last night." Yoosung exhaled in relief, "More like what's wrong with us."

Yoosung wasn't quite understanding what she had meant. "Us? What about us? We're happy and-"

Mc tries her best to be the one doing the talking. so she can explain but Yoosung been getting so good at speaking for the both of them, her thoughts and words often get pushed away.

'"Im not happy!" She said maybe just a little too loud. " And don't think you are too...not in a way that we should be anyway.."

She wanted to maintain eye contact with was something she thought about all morning. Maintain eye contact. But she couldn't help it, she didn't want to face his gaze after saying that.

"You aren't...Happy?" Yoosung was lost for words. His heart started to race with fear. "Since when?"

Yoosung tried everything in his power to make sure she would be happy with the life they shared. It's all he wanted. Every since he met her, she was want he wanted, he knew it from the bottom of his heart. He loved her and her happiness was one of the things he tried to put above himself. He puts everyone's happiness above himself. Ever since she told him she liked him, he couldn't believe it.

He was worthless, beyond worthless of her love, he didn't even love himself when she first came into his life. He was just coasting through the motions of life, everything he thought he knew was gone. And what made it worse was he knew, HE KNEW, something was amiss with how Rika disappeared and V claims of her suicide. The others wanted to be supportive but even Zen fell for V deception, Yoosung was so alone. Seven tried to help, with his pranks, videos games, and banter, but it all felt so fake, like they just wanted him to move on. But how could he when all he could feel and hear within his heart something was wrong.

The others always had a hard time with understanding his feelings towards Rika. She was his role model. Always there for him when he needed guidance. He means it when he says 'Rika was an angel". Sure they are blood related, but that didn't make her family. Rika was more than just a cousin she was like an older sister to him. Always there to show him how to live, what was right and wrong. She helped him out in more ways than he could count. So yes. He was crushed beyond all belief when she disappeared. Life without felt so wrong, so empty. Like the air was sucked from his lungs and he was forced to view the world for how it really was, unpredictable, unfair, and uncaring.

Mc was the only person to care. She didn't push him away for questioning what happened to Rika. She stayed and listen, even when, and he'll admit it, when he saw her as a version of Rika. She stayed even though he was awful to her at first , always confusing her for Rika. Mc was much more than that though, she was patient with him and helped him see past his longing for Rika and he was finally able to see Mc. All at once Yoosung wanted nothing more then to protect and be there for her in return. He wanted to prove he could be better. A smartie like Seven, handsome like Zen, successful like jumin, Hard working like Jaehee, and kind like Rika. He wanted to be all those things for her. And he did.

He got his grades up and even looked into other fields for him that seemed to fit his interests in life, he moved out the dorms and into a better an apartment big enough to have Mc stay here. Where he could always be there for her, day and night. All those sleepless night of her worrying. When she felt as tho she didn't belong, he couldn't help but find it cute and heartbreaking at the same time. She was not just his Mirclie but the RFA's as well. She came in and fixed things, it's what she's always done.

Yoosung couldn't imagine his life without her, it was cause of her he was able to push himself this far. She was the star in the night sky that he was able to reach out and grab, claim it as his own.

"Mc what do I need do? How can I fix this? Us?" Yoosung took a hold of her cheek in one hand, making her face him so he was able to see her eyes. He wants her to know he is still here for her, even if she wants to push him away. "Tell me I'll do anything to make it work, Your my world Mc"

"Yoosung...I don't think this is something we can fix." Mc didn't know what to tell him. She played around with the thought. The idea that if they both just worked really hard, if they both could just love each other so much, everything would fall into place. But that delusion has gone on long enough. It was getting them nowhere.

"Of course it's something we can fix, We are not broken. I'm not going to let this go. Us." Yoosung was cupping both of Mc cheeks in his hands. Looking desperately at her, hoping she would come back to reality.

'What's been going on in her head for her to feel this way? To even think this way?' He wondered. There was no reason for her to be unhappy. Sure it was hard. But life is hard, Yoosung knows that more than anyone. After everything he went threw with losing Rika and V's lies, if he was able to get threw that. He could get threw this with Mc.

Mc grabbed a hold of Yoosung forearms. "Please just-just let me talk." Ms started. "I haven't been happy for a while, not really anyways. There are good moments but there is just so much that keeps getting piled on lately...and I can't breathe its too much." Mc practiced everything she was going to say all morning but the second she opened her mouth the words vanished. She wasn't making sense or even a good point. "Since Rika's been back everything-"

"Is this what's bothering you? Rika?" Yoosung asked sternly.

"No! No its….well she's part of it but that's not it, there are many things that are-"

"Cause if you think she is still planning on hurting you or anyone for that matter, she hasn't. She is getting better I promise. I wouldn't visit her if that was the case Babe. Really Rika is sorry for everything she has done and is trying to atone for it. I know that doesn't mean all will be forgivin, But please don't feel threatened of her."

Yoosung wanted to make sure Mc knew Rika was recovering. God he wanted all of the RFA to see that. Yes what she did was wicked, awful, evil, downright illegal. But she was changing, she is finally getting the help she has needed all these years. Yoosung is making sure Rika is treated right, he won't let her slip away like she did when V was with her. That's why he put her in the best Center, one that is even close to his school too. Just like Mc he will be there for her and make sure nothing bad ever happens to her again.

"Mc please, Rika is not a reason to break up. She isn't a problem for us."

Everything Yoosung was saying stung. Mc knew he was trying to be supportive for both their sakes, but it all just sounds so wrong to her. Rika was a problem for them. It's the fact that Mc feels threatened by her and not just her in general but by her actions. Everything Rika did was still taking a toll on everyone. Escasiply Jumin. Yoosung views her return as a blessing, a sign that things can return to how they used to be. But things can never return to that state. He turns a blind eye to her wrong doing every time. Mc just can't take that side of him anymore.

"Yoosungs it's not just her. It's- It's everything. You need to stop and let me talk." She breaks free from his grasp and stands up. Walking to the other side of the table, leaving him still seated in front of his food.

"Ever since I moved in, things only seemed to get worse. I hoped that over time they would just go back to normal, if we ever had a normal, but they never did. It's always one fight after another. They never get resolved! All we do is yell and sweep it under the rug, praying that it will just go away."

Yoosung stood up. "Then let's take care of this. Let's resolve all our issues here and now."

"Stop thats not going to help."

"Mc how do you know if you won't even try. Please i'll make this work, what's wrong with us? Tell me."

"Yoosung! You can't possible believe that going over all our past mistake will fix things just like that! You can't possibly think you're finally going to change your ways!" Mc was getting irritated now, this was not a debate they are going to have. She wants him to hear her and let her leave, collect her own thoughts.

"I don't't even know what youre talking about Mc. What ways? What am I doing wrong?! I just want to know why you even feel this way? You say its not Rika then why do you think we are so unhappy?"

Mc was livid now. After all those fights, the yelling, screaming, swearing, and tears, and he has the nerve to say he doesn't know. "Yoosung it's everything! Its You! It's me! We can't agree on anything. You want to stay here when all I want to do is move after school. You want to be close so you can watch over Rika. You want me to put off grad school or find a school here. Your trying keep me here! You never want to talk about the bad things Rika has done! You didn't even go to V's Damn funeral! Your always bring her up when you know. When you fucking know it breaks Jumin and Seven heart to hear her name. Sure you acknowledge she may have crossed a line, but you forget she is the reason Saeran will never leave the house! You go around blinding yourself from all your friends problems and issues. You only hang with them on game nights. I'm not allowed out with other friends cause you don't get along with them. Cause it might be unsafe, cause I might actually enjoy myself with you not there! If I plans you'll find a way to change them if it's not something that you like."

Mc was rambling she knew it. She was unloading everything all at once and that wasn't going to help make this easier. But it was like she became possessed.

"I hate that i'm always talked into it too! I hate that I never see my friends because I'm too worried about you and your feelings! That I can't even say what's on my mind all the time, cause I know it's going to upset you, which means a new fight. I hate that you talk over me, answer for me, assume you know what I want or what's best for me. God Yoosung I can barely think for myself without you breathing down my throat telling me I'm doing it wrong, that I need to be more like this. If I just do this we'll be happy. Yoosung we aren't fucking happy! You get on my nerves and when your not in control you lose it. I'm not your puppet, I don't need to be told what's best for me. I"m not Rika! I don't need saving and I can think for myself!"

Mc was out of breath. She swore she saw red for a moment. She didn't even know if she was yelling all of that or just speaking normaly. Her whole body went tense and when she finished it was like all that pressure was realized. But at the same time, she felt awful. In herself mostly. For getting out of hand like that. She shouldn't have said all of that like it was only his fault. She had issues to. She needs to talk more, share more. God when did they both stop sharing their thoughts with each other.

It's like if they aren't fighting they are just talking about idle things, the smallest of small talk. Topics she doesn't care about. Does Yoosung even realize this. When was the last time he really had a meaningful conversation with her. Mc rested her hands on the table to hold herself up, glancing at Yoosung, who face was downcast. He looked hurt. His brows were pinched together and a schowl replaced his normal smile.

"Yoosung I...I think we have some issues. Talking wont-"

"Your wrong MC, Talking will help. Don't you see? It's the fact that we don't talk things got this way."

Yoosung won't lie, he hates seeing her so worked up. So angry her face goes red and she forgets to breathe half the time, so she always gasping for air in between her words. He heard all her reasons. Sure some of them were true. He did have concerns about her plans for the future. He wants to be in it with her. That's why he tried so hard to make it work. Compromise with a path that would be best for both of them. He only speaks for her cause he knows her so well. Yoosung thinks he knows her better than she knows herself sometimes.

"Look I know we had those bumps in the road. But we made it this far. And why? For what? Cause we love each other. We both want the same thing Mc. A happy life for us. I'm willing to make that for us. Hell I'll even move with you. I don't care where we go as long as i'm with you. If you think i should work on my control then fine i will."

"Yoosung stop! Did you really not listen! Your doing it again! Thinking for me! Again! I.. I don't think we should fix this, cause we can't. Because I don't want to fix this. Not yet. I need time. I need to be by myself for a bit. I want my own space, I cant think when I'm here."

Mc wrapped her arms around herself, holding tightly. She was scared, scared to be on her own after so long. But she knew it's what- no what she really needed at the moment.

Yoosung eyes grew wide in panic. This wasn't a matter of fixing things. It was a matter of Mc falling. Falling out of love with him. His worst fear was coming true. The day Mc would wake up and realize she could do better. That he was just too much for her. 'God why couldn't he see this sooner' He wondered. That she was pushing away not because she was unsure but because she was finally seeing he wasnt enough for her. The thought stirred something within Yoosung. He could feel his hands begin to shake. He didn't want to lose her. He couldn't. He wouldn't let her go. He just can't.

"Mc!" He jumped from his spot and dash to her. Holding her arms scared he if doesn't she'll disappear.

"Please wait! Wait! I'm sorry. For everything! I- I don't know what to do. Please. Please Don't Go. Please can we just talk. Can we just….Can you please just stay." Yoosung felt so scared as he spoke. It was like he was back to the old him. Before Mc arrived, when he was just so scared of everything. He worked so hard to overcome that. He vowed he would never cry like he used to, he wanted to be strong like everyone else for once, but the darkness was growing closer.

"Mc I love you. Please. Please" He hugged her tightly. She was so small, fitting perfectly in his arms. He felt so much safer when she was right here. Where he can always see her, make sure she is ok. To make sure he is ok.

Yoosung buried his face in her neck. She could feel his tears threw her hair. 'Was he really crying?'. Mc hadn't seen Yoosung cry since Rika returned. It wasn't just tears either. He was shaking too. Mc felt responsible, like she had just bullied him into a state of terror. She wraps her arms around him. Waving her fingers in his hair.

"Yoosung...hey now..It's ok.." But it wasn't and she knew it. She shouldn't lie.

"I'm right here, but you need to claim down. Really we can't talk about anything until you claim down." Mc knew she wasn't saying the right thing. This wont claim him. But if she gave into comforting him now things would just start over.

"I-I-I'll try harder Mc, please. Please don't say you'll leave. I can't handle that. Not you." He was being unfair. Sounding so fragile.

"I'll do anything so please. Just stay. You wanna go out more, do it. You want talk more, let's start now. You want to move, fine lets go. I'll go anywhere with you. I don't mind really. I'll find work no matter where we go. I'll move Rika anywhere if she is a concern for you too. I just- i just wanna be with you. So please." Yoosung started to go on and on about how he is ready to change with her, as long as she is with him. But Mc just saw his pleas as empty promises. If she were to stay, Mc knows she would let herself fall back into the cycle of wanting to please him again. Wanting him to be happy even if it makes her miserable. That's the issue with them, they both are willing to be unhappy for eachother.

She would end up letting him always be closer to Rika, always letting him have both of them. If she moved and he followed, Rika would come as well. He would find a new facility and things would always stay the same. Mc was being selfish. She didn't want that. She wanted Yoosung to herself. Wanted him to move on and think only about himself for once. She wanted him to stop his fear of losing everything, letting go of this control issue. Just let things happen naturally and go with the flow, but it all seemed like too good of a dream to be true for Mc. This isn't a fairytale, people don't just get happy endings for loving each other.

Mc felt like it was now or never. She had to get out. It was all starting to become too much. Any longer and she wouldn't make. She hugged him tighter before pulling back wanting to see him one last time. Wanting to give him one small last comfort before she left. She wiped some of his tears before leaning in to kiss him. God she was going to miss this. His lips and the way his arms perfect envelope her. She made sure not to make it last too long. Breaking contact once she felt him trying to deepen the kiss. She pulled back completely this time, getting out of his grasp. Meeting with his eyes as she spoke.

"Yoosung I love you, and will always love you, But I can't do this anymore. I need to go. I need to." She quickly got up and rushed to the door, grabbing her backpack full of extra clothes and laptop, she packed that morning. She needed out now. Every fiber in her body was screaming at her to return to his side and tell him it was going to be ok. But it's not Ok. She heard him scream her name, crying out as she slammed the front door. Running down the apartment stairs, racing to get far enough away so she could call for a ride.


Yoosung on the other hand felt frozen. On moment Mc was in his arms kissing him, the next she was running out the door. It took him a moment to realize she was leaving when he heard the door unlock. "Mc! Mc wait!"

He yelled as he ran to the front foyer just in time to see the door shut. He pounds against it just seconds too late.

"MC!" He bangs his head against the door. Waiting to run out and chase her down. Grab her by the arm and take her back inside. So they can talk, argue, fight, scream, shout, whatever. He wanted anything but this.

Yoosung felt his whole body go limp as his slip down to the floor and screamed. His tears returned making it hard to see. "Mc please..come back."

He sat there for a while before everything went black and he flew into a rage of despair. The pictures nearest to the door were the first to go. Tearing them off the wall and throwing them across the foyer. The sound of the glass breaking slightly helping the anxiety he was feeling. He repeated this. Going room to room throwing everything around.

"Come back! Come back! Why can't I do anything right!"

Yoosung made his way to the dinning table where the food she made him was still laid out. He grabs the plate throwing it against the wall, shoving the table over and kicking chairs out of his way.

"Why can't I keep anyone! Why are they always leaving!"

Yoosung shouted nonsense only he could hear. Vowing to break everything in sight until he got to the bedroom. Their bedroom. Most of her things were still here. He walks over to her dresser opening the bottom drew, where she keeps all her winter clothes. Pulling out both his and hers favotive sweater. Clutching it firmly against him and lays back in their bed. Feeling so tired.

"Mc, Im...sorry come back…"


Yoosung: MCCCCCCCCCC! I'm Sorry! *Begins to cry*

Mc: Yoosung its ok! I'm still here! This is just a story remember!

Me: Yeah bro I dont even own you, claim down. This is fiction

Yoosung: Why do you HATE me!

Mc: She doesn't hate you. Don't you BloodyMaryWho?

Me: …

Yoosung: *cries even harder*

A/N. So im going to add one more part. A small after story of how Mc handled moving out, and how yoosung handles her not coming back. I'll try to get it out by friday. In the middle of writing this i got so many ideas for other stories i got caught up rough drafting those instead of this, but I'll be better this time! Thanks for reading!
