Red's POV:
I woke up once again, in the small, dark, depressing room.
Wait..
Has he.. Deleted my memory yet?
I facepalmed as the thought went through my mind. Ofcourse he hasn't! I wouldn't remember it if he'd already done it.
I pushed myself up on weak legs. My hand went to my pocket to see if Jund's phone were still there.
Gone.
"Fuck." I swore under my breath as I walked up to the door.
"Hey! I'm awake now, shouldn't you guys, like, run in here and beat me up or something?!" I shouted with irony and in just a few sec, the door opened and a man with a robbery mask entered and closed the door behind him.
"Who are you?" He looked familiar somehow..
His hand went up to his mask and he removed it, making me gasp by surprise.
"Russ?"
He walked past me to a chair in the corner of the room. That chair wasn't there before..
He stepped up on the chair and put a sticker over the surveillance camera. "There. Now we can speak." He stepped down from the chair and walked up to me. My heart sped up a bit.
"You.. You came here to save me?" I asked, feeling like a fuckin' princess or something.
But I didn't get the reaction I was looking for. I saw guilt spread across his features and I tipped my head to the side in confusion. "Red, I'm.. That's not the reason I'm in this building.." This made me even more confused and my heart turned to ice and broke a little. He noticed this and hurried to repair his words. "No, no, that's not what I meant! I am here to rescue you, but.. It's kinda my fault you're here.." "What do you mean? Did you tell Jund to captivate me..?" "No, I.. I'm one of the creators of this whole thing.."
I did'nt want to believe him.
"Wait.. So you're telling me, you helped him erasing Pewds memory of Cry?" He looked at the ground and nodded. "S-sorry-" I raised my hand and hit him before he could say anything else. "And now you're telling me this beacuse you're going to erase my memory aswell in a few sec, right?" "No, Red, please stop being mad at me! Jund made me do it, and I feel terrible, so I'm willing to do anything to fix it! That's why I'm here. I'm here to save you, so we can save pewdiecry together." I looked at him, annoyed by his childish way of seeing things, but I decided to go with it.
"Fine, what's your plan?" His face lit up as I agreed on escaping with him and he told me what we were going to do next.
He opened the door and asked me if I was ready to go.
"Wait.." I mumbled and he looked questionly at me. "If I were to be the first person here, instead of Pewds, do you think you would have.. Nevermind, let's go." I saw him swallow hard before opening his mouth. "No. I couldn't bring myself to erase your memory aswell. I guess that's why I decided on helping Pewds now, I realized how Cry must feel, knowing that the person you love would get their memory erased. I couldn't.. I'm so sorry." "Hey, save the speech for the ones you owe it to." He nodded and turned to exit the door, with me following.
We walked through a dark corridor and all I could think of was his last words in that room.
"Love?" He stopped in his tracks as my voice hit him. "The person you love.." He turned around to look at me. "The person I love." He paused and took a deep breath. "I love you, Red." I have never felt so happy. It felt like my whole being was smiling brightly. "I love you, too." I said before I took another step closer and kissed him.
But we couldn't waste time on this, both of us knew this.
He entertwined our hands and we hurried out of the building.
And just when we were about to enter his car..
"Hey! Over here!" My eyes scanned around to find the source of that voice. I recognized it..
"Cry.." I heard Russ mumble and I looked at the person he was looking at, who was currently waving to us. "Cry!" I shouted of happiness and ran over to him. He streched out his arms and catched me in a hug as I ran right into him, making him stumble back a few steps. "Ow! Hi Red!" I snuggled into his neck and embraced his smell, enjoying the warmth radicating from him, and his lovely voice.
"Hey, that's my husband! Hands off!" Pewds grabbed my arm and separated us. Both me and Cry burst out laughing at this. "Oh come on, Pewds! He's like a brother to me, plus, I have my own guy." I looked back at Russ, who were still standing by his car. "Russ! Get your ass over here!" I shouted and he started walking slowly towards us, looking nervous. I looked back at the couple infront of me, and smiled, as I saw Pewds holding his arms around Cry, whispering something into his ear, making the brunette giggle. "You guys.. So adorbs.." They looked up at me with smiles on their faces. "Cry.. I haven't seen you smile like that in soo long. God, I've missed it." "And I hope you missed me." Pewds said as he flipped back his hair. I giggled. "Of course I missed you, Pewds!" I finished my sentance with a hug from him. By the time we let go, Russ stood by my side. "Hey, guys.." He looked so filled with guilt, Ifelt bad for him. "Hey, pal!" Cry said happily and embraced him with a big hug.
Oh.. That's right.. He doesn't know what Russ did..
"So, you managed to rescue Red before us." Cry said with a smile. "Maybe you should tell them, Russ." He looked at me with anger as I suggested that. "Well, now I have to." He turned to Pewds and Cry, who both looked very confused. "I'm really sorry, but.. I helped Scott to erase Pewdie's memory. I feel so bad about it, and I regret everything!" I watched as the couple infront of him looked at eachother, then back at him. "We understand." They said this in a union, and I watched as reilef washed over Russ. "So you're not mad?" They shook their heads, acting like they were on person. "Now, can you do this one thing for us?" Cry asked and Russ nodded with a hopeful smile. "Tell us where the fuck that jerk Jund is hiding!" I jumped back a little at his outburst, but Russ nodded and walked with them back to the building.
"What about mee?" I shouted after them and Russ told me to stay by the car.
Cry's POV:
We walked through the dark corridors of the building and I squeezed Pewds hand tightly with my own, trying to hold in the anger boiling inside of me.
I looked at Pewds while we walked. He looked so serious and deep in thought. Goddamn Jund. Beacuse of him, I had to spend months without my beloved Swede.
He looked so beautiful, even when it's dark, he shines, like there's some kind of light around him, making him glow.
I got lost in the beauty of my husband and woke up from it when we had stopped and I walked right into Russ. He looked back at me. "We're here." He spoke with a low voice. I looked up and saw a big red door infront of us. Probably Jund's hideout. "You should go back to Red, we can handle this." I watched as Felix gave him the orders and Russ nodded and wished us luck before hurrying back to where we came from.
I looked at Pewds. "Listen, it might get crazy in there-" "It's okay, Cry, you don't have to do anything, I can fight my own battles." He gave me a reassuring smile. "No, Pewds, I were about to tell you.. I can turn into.. Mad Cry." He looked like he was trying to hold back a laugh. "Mad Cry..?" "It's no joke, Pewds. And if I do, you have to stay back." "But.. What is 'Mad Cry'?" "I can't really explain it, I've had it since I was a kid and.. Let's talk about this some other time." He nodded and we opened the door together and my eyes immediately scanned the room.
That's when I saw him. Sitting in a big chair, reading some book. When he looked up, I felt it.
Mad Cry.
Pewdie's POV:
We opened the door and were met with Scott, relaxing in a big chair with a book in his hands. Behind him were a few tv screens with videos of different places in the building. I looked at him, who raised his eyes to Cry, making my eyes travel to Cry aswell.
I felt fear build up inside of me as I saw my husband. His iris were red and his pupils were blown wide, whilst he had a crooked smile on his lips, and I don't know if it was only my imagination, but his hair looked darker and messier.
And when he spoke..
His voice..
He sounded like a mix between a gentleman and a killer. That's probably the best way I can explain it it..
"Jund. You little motherfucker, here you are. Hiding in this big room with your big chair and stupid book, watching every move of your captives." He walked past Jund, even the way he walked, he was way quicker and filled with confidence, showing it in every step. I jumped up in the air as he punched the tv screens behind Jund, that were showing what the surveillance camera saw, and the sound of glass hitting the floor echoed through the room, it was a terrible sound.
"Cry.."
He couldn't hear me.
He turned to Jund, who looked small and terrified in his big chair.
"Do you remember our little talk, the night of my wedding, huh, Jund? You told me I was going to thank you for this."
He picked up Scott, and threw him into the wall on the other side of the room, and in only seconds, Cry stood above him, lifting his head up by pulling his hair.
"But I don't think this is graditude I'm feeling, old friend."
"Cry..! S-stop.." I tried speaking again, but to no avail.
"Do you realize you're messing with peoples lifes?" Cry asked before punching Scott across his face.
"Do you realize you're messing with love, real true love?" He punched again, and Jund struggled to prevent it from happening again.
"Cry! Stop it, please! Listen, I.. I got payed and.. I'm sorry, I didn't mean any of it!" Cry didn't even listen to the beaten man, instead, he pulled him up on his feet and punched him down into the ground again, and he kept punching.
"You were my friend! It was your fault he went missing, and you smiled at me, you told me everything would be okay when you were the one who made this mess!" He kept punching, not even giving Jund a chance to talk.
What scared me the most were when Cry picked him up once again, but this time, he held a tight grip around Jund's throat and held him up in the air so his feet couldn't reach the ground, and Jund started gasping for air.
He was strangeling him and I panicked.
"CRY! FOR FUCK'S SAKE, STOP IT! YOU'RE KILLING HIM!" This time, Cry looked up at me.
And as I watched him look at me, his iris turned back to it's normal cobalt blue color, his pupils got it's normal size, and his whole expression turned into worry and fear as he looked up at the man above him.
He was back, and were now realizing what he was doing.
"Oh no.." He let go of Jund, who fell to the floor, coughing, and Cry kept backing away from his victim until he hit the wall and let his back slide down against it while he burried his head in his bloody hands.
I carefully walked up to Jund. His face was covered in blood and he was barely consious. 'Atleast he's alive' my brain told me and I took a quick glimpse at the wall Cry threw him into. It had a huge crack in it now. Goddammit, Cry..
My eyes fell on my broken husband and I walked up to him. "Cry..?" His hands fell to his sides and he looked at me, with blood smeared over his face. "I'm.. A monster Pewds." "Well.. Yeah, but.." I sat down beside him and put my arms around him before whispering into his ear:
"In that case, you're my monster."
I watched him smile slightly at this. "But.. Jund.. I can't believe I let myself do this to him.." "Yeah.. I had something else in mind, like talking, but this works fine, too." Cry chuckled at my words and stood up. He walked to Jund and sat down on his knees infront of his former best friend.
"Jund..? Hey, I'm sorry for.. This.. Well, look at the bright side, now you finally get what I meant when I told you those stories from my childhood." And by my surprise, I saw a faint smile on Junds lips. "Y-yeah, I guess so.." He spoke weakly and started coughing as he did so.
"Hey, buddy, we all make mistakes, and I want you to apologize to my husband and me, so we can all forgive and move on, right?" He looked back at me, who just gave him a confused nod.
"Hey, Pewds.. I'm really sorry about all that. Marzia payed me, and I got lost in all the money, plus.. I think I'm inlove with her.." He coughed again as he finished his sentence. "Oh, really?" I asnwered and chuckled at the thought of the two of them together.
"Hey.. It looks like all of this happened only beacuse of love." Cry said and we all burst out laughing. "So deep, Cry." He crossed his arms and gave me an angry look. "It's true! Fuck you, guys.."
Cry looked around the room. "Wow.." He looked back at his hands. "Shit! I've got shards of glass in my hands!" I ran to him as soon as the word 'shards' left his lips, and I fell down on my knees to get in the same level as him. I took his hands and saw the pieces of glass stuck in them, with blood dripping from the wounds, mixing with the blood from Jund.
"Fuck.. We have to get both of you to a hospital, quickly." I tried to speak calmly, even though I was freaking out on the inside. "Don't worry about it, though, it's only pieces of glass, Pewds." I knew this, but.. I don't want anything to hurt him, whatever it is.
I looked back at Jund, who suddenly looked even more pale than before, and his eyes rolled and he was gone.
I panicked. Again.
"OMG! Is he dead?!" I stood up and grabbed my hair, unsure how I would handle this.
What surprised me was when Cry started laughing.
I turned to him. "What the hell are you laughing about?!" He gave me a smirk. "He just fainted, Jund does that when he sees blood. It's hilarious." I sighed of relief. "Really? Omg, that.. Scared the shit out of me.. But.. Do you think he'll wake up so we don't have to carry him out?" "If we wake him up, he'll only fade again." "And your hands are hurt, which means that I have to carry him, then.." Cry nodded and I sighed again, before picking up Jund.
He wasn't as heavy as I thought he would be..
We started walking out of the building.
We walked through the corridors again, and I looked at the blooded man in my arms. I've never seen him this upclose before, and I took the chance to do it now. Sure, his features would look better without the blood and bruises, but he's a good looking guy, with nice dark brown hair. I realized I'd been staring for too long at Jund's face, and I looked back at Cry. He looked a bit pissed off.
"Hey, what's with you?" I asked him and he looked away. "Oh, let me guess, you were so taken by Jund's beauty so you didn't hear what I just said?" I felt guilty as the words of my husband hit me. "No, Cry, I wasn't taken by his beauty or anything, I was thinking of all the blood and bruises he's got in his face." But the thought about him being a good looking guy did strike me..
'Of course I can't tell him that, though..' My thoughts told me as I looked at Cry. He crossed him arms and kept quiet.
Goddammit.
Why did I have to stare at Jund like that?
I looked up to see the light coming from the exit. Soon there, phew.
I looked at Jund again, and I don't know if it only was my mind playing tricks on me, or.. Was he smiling?
I decided to look up again. Can't risk getting blamed for staring at him again.
We finally got to the car and Cry opened the door and I put Jund in the backseat. And Cry was just about to jump in aswell when I stopped him.
"Don't be mad at me, please.." I said whilst trying to do puppy eyes. "I'm not mad. Let's just get to the hospital." He said this with a straight face, eyes locked on something behind me.
It reminded me of when he wore that mask.. It was like the same expression..
But I didn't feel like arguing, since I wanted us to get to the hospital to fix him up.
So we drove in silence to the nearest hospital, and just when I were about to pick up Jund again from his seat, I got pushed away.
"I can carry him from now on, and I'll take care of this, you can go home and rest for a few hours. Call you when we're done." Cry said this in a wierd, kinda harsch tone, and I felt my heart break a little.
He didn't want me to be there.
And before I could argue, they were far ahead of me, almost inside of the hospital, and I was left at the parking lot, like an idiot.
But I took a deep breath and drove away, heading home.
Cry's POV:
I sat in the waiting room for two hours before I got help. Jund got help immediately since he was unconsious, and they thought: 'Since you could carry him, you won't need help right away.'
Maybe I should've let Pewds come with us..
And maybe I did overreact on the whole thing, I mean, he wasn't doing anything wrong, ofcourse you look at someone a little linger than needed if..
Hey, I don't know.
I finally got help and they stitched me up. And I got the room where Jund laid in from one of the nurses, so I went over to him.
He had a blackeye and a few bruises, but otherwise, he seemed pretty fine. Except for the broken arm that I noticed when I got closer.
"Hey, buddy.." I felt really guilty as I spoke. He looked at me and smiled. "Hey, Cry. Oh this? It's nothing, I tripped in some stairs, that's all." I loved how he still got that humor.
"But seriously, Cry.. You shouldn't feel bad for all of this, I'm a douche and I really deserved this." He then noticed my hands. "How many stitches?" "Six in each hand." He gasped at my reply. "Oh how I wished I could've seen your face when they did that.." We both laughed, and I felt like everything might be okay after all.
Until he opened his mouth again.
"Hey, I heard you and Felix before, when he carried me and stuff.. I was actually half awake, but it would've been so wierd if I opened my eyes at that moment.. So I kept pretending to be unconsious." I sighed and sat down in the chair next to his hospital bed. He was going to stay the night, the nurse told me, since he'd lost some blood and needed to rest and stuff.
"Why were you so angry at him?" Jund asked. "Beacuse.. I guess it was beacuse my mind kept telling me how stupid I was, and that you were right all along.. Like, who am I kidding here? Of course I won't be able to keep him, he'll be cheating on me in no time!" Jund sighed.
"I used to believe that, too, about Felix, but then, I got a hold of Red's phone when we held her captive, and.. I found a clip of the two of you, she filmed you guys a few days before you were getting married, and you were out shopping for the wedding. You were in a cake store and the guy who owned the place helped you with tasting the cakes and stuff, and you looked so exited and talked to the seller about the cakes, but Felix, he couldn't keep his eyes away from you, and the way he looked at you.. Fuck, I've never seen anyone so inlove before, it made my heart ache and that's what made me regret everything, and I feel so guilty. So please, don't come here and tell me I did the right right thing, now, since I know I didn't. So, just go home to him, I promise you, he's only got love for one person, and that's you."
I sat there in silence for a few seconds.
Maybe he's right..
So I said goodbye to Jund before dialing Felix on my phone.
Pewdie's POV:
*A few hours earlier*
I arrived home from dropping the others off at the hospital, and the first thing I did was flopping down onto the couch, trying to relax.
But I really couldn't, since my mind just kept naggin' on me for making Cry angry or upset.
Even though, I think he overreacted.. A bit..
Or is it.. Maybe he doesn't trust me? Oh, why can't he see how much I love him, and him only. I thought it was obvious..
I fell asleep after a while.
A knock on the door woke me up and I looked at my watch. I've been asleep for almost 3 hours!
I heard the knocking again and walked over to open it, and, to my surprise, was met by Ken.
He didn't even bother to greet me, instead, he hugged me, so tightly I could barely breathe, I patted him lightly on the back in response, also indicating to let me go.
"Hey Ken, it's great to see you too, man." He started giggling at my words and pulled away.
Wait.. Something's odd..
"Are you drunk, Ken?" He giggled even more at my question while he walked over to the couch and sat down. "Close the dooooor!" I did as I was told, and turned to him again. "I guess my question is answered, then." I mumbled whilst walking to the couch to sit down beside him.
"Where have you been?!" I realized that he was probably pretty worried aswell when I was gone. "I.. That's a story for sober Ken, now let's get you home.." I didn't actually want him to go, I've missed him, but I know what usually happens when it's about me, him and alcohol..
So I stood up and held my hand out to help him up.
"But.. I've missed you." He was suddenly much calmer and seemed serious.
Wait.. I've seen that expression on his face before.. I know what he wants.
"You should really go, man. We can talk tomorrow." I walked over to the door, but didn't open it. "Pewds, pleeeese! Let's do it on the couch!" He ran up to me and pulled me back to the couch. "No! I'm married now, Ken!" "So?" He held me in a deathgrip, and were now pulling me closer, but I kept struggling and turned my head away when he tried to capture my lips with his own.
But suddenly, he stopped. Still holding me as close as possible, but.. Something made him stop his actions.
I looked up and saw that the door stood open, and Cry stood infront of it.
He looked.. Heartbroken.
I saw my chance, and pushed Ken away, but with too much force, making him fall back to the ground.
He got up and hurried out the door. That bastard. He could've helped me, could've told Cry the truth.
"I hate being right.." Was the only thing Cry said before he stormed away, towards the bedroom. I followed him.
"I didn't do anything! Didn't you see how I struggled?! Please, Cry!" I shouted after him, but he slammed our bedroom door right in my face.
I was left, on the other side of the door, pressed against it. "Please, Cry.. Come out and listen to me.."
And to my surprise, the door opened, and Cry's arms snaked it's way around my waist, whilst he snuggled his head into my chest. I held him tightly and sighed of relief.
"I can't be mad at you, and yes.. I saw you struggle, so I believe you." He pulled away a little and looked into my eyes. "And I trust you." I didn't respond, instead, I lifted him up and carried him in bridal style to our bed, where I put him down and laid down next to him.
"Your hands.." I brought them up so I could have a closer look at the stitches. "Six at each." He said calmly and I gave him a sad look. "I wish I could've been there to hold you, it must've hurt like a bitch.." He smiled warmly at me. "I wish you would've been there, too."
He pulled me closer and I wrapped my arms around him. We were both extremely tired, but now we could finally rest, since we have eachother.
I opened my eyes to look at him again, and saw that he was already staring at me.
He quickly looked away. "Sorry.." He mumbled. "Cry.. You don't have to look away when I caught you staring. I'm your husband, you can stare at me all you want." He looked at me again. "Really? Since, ya know, it's like having a diamond around, you just want to look at it all the time and can't tear your eyes away fro-" I pressed my lips against his, making him go silent, and he kissed back.
We started pulling eachother closer, and I felt his tongue go into my mouth, making our tongues mingle, and I rolled him over, making me on top.
I broke the kiss and smirked. "What?" He asked and tried to pull me back into the kiss. "Well, look who's ontop, looks like you're the bottom beta bitch, now Cry!" He started laughing at this and pulled me back in for the kiss again.
Oh how I love him, and I remind him everyday, in the hope that he'll someday understand how much I love him, even though nobody can ever understand.
Cry's POV:
And the remaining days of our lifes, I tried everyday to show him how much I really love him, but he will never actually understand how much I love him, nobody will ever understand that amount.
That's the funny thing about love, it can reach higher numbers than the amount of stars in this universe.
And there's no better feeling than waking up next to him, feel his smell, his thouch..
Pewdie's POV:
...His laugh, his eyes, his voice..
This will be a happy ending, with only happy days before that.
