Chapter 5: True Confessions
Meryl stood in the bathroom, gripping the sides of the sink tightly. Her headache was getting worse and worse by the minute. She shut her eyes tightly and shook her head violently, trying to ignore the pain, but it just kept getting worse. She stared at her ghost-like appearence in the mirror, and tried to tell herself that everything was okay. She quickly reached in the medicine cabinet and pulled out a bottle of pills. Her hands shook as she tried to pry the bottle open. She nervously piled a few pills in the palm of her hand, dropping a few on the ground. She shoved the pills in her mouth and swallowed them whole, her body still shaking. She stumbled on the ground and pulled herself in a ball, burying her head in her knees. *Why? Why can't I face him?*
" Well, I'm sure she can handle herself," Vash laughed," Haven't you seen her punch?"
Wolfwood had totally forgotten about the tough side of Millie, he was to caught up in the fact that he hurt her feelings.
" W-well, I'd better search for her anyways," Wolfwood said, calmly wiping tears from his face. He felt like such a fool for acting so wrongly, he let his dick guide him, once again.
" Well, I better get going," Wolfwood said, turning to leave, " And don't let the small one worry, I'll bring Millie back."
Vash watched his friend leave the room, shutting the door behind him. He knew he was talking about Meryl, but he never understood why he called her that. He shrugged and laid his head back down on his bed. He was just about to drift off to sleep, when he heard a faint sound of crying. He anxiously sat up and pressed his ear against the wall, hoping he could hear it clearer. *Meryl?* He quickly stood up and stumbled towards his bedroom door. He swiftly swung it open and ran down the hallway towards Meryl's room.
" Mer-" He stopped himself noticing there was nothing there, but the sound of crying in the next room. He ran towards the bathroom, and slowly opened the door, peeking his head in.
" Meryl!" He ran towards her and threw his arms around her. " What are you doing?"
He glanced on the ground and saw the pills scattered aimlessly on the floor. His eyes widened and and he shook her lightly.
" Meryl! Answer me!"
" V-Vash," She finally choked up after a few sobs." I-Im sorry..."
" For what?"
She looked up into his eyes with a scared look on her face. " I c- can't love you, it wouldn't be fair..."
He didn't say anything, he just stared back at her. She burried her face in his chest, trying to hide herself from him. " You're Vash the Stampede, a-and.... I'm just an insurance girl."
" Is that what you think of me? Just a wanted outlaw?" His voice broke up as he spoke.
" N-no," She told him, trying to reassure him, " b-but I just can't love you."
Why was she saying this, she knew she loved him. She wanted to love him as long as she lived. Suddendly it hit her, as long as 'she' lived.... She knew Vash would live forever, and she would grow old and die, leaving him alone and heartbroken.
" Vash, I will die someday," She broke away from his grip, " I don't want to hurt you."
" Meryl, it doesn't matter, just as long as we love each other," Vash said, reaching for her.
" No! It's not like that! Not at all!" She shakily stood up and made her way towards the door.
" Meryl, I love you." Meryl froze at his words. * He loves me? But wait, it can't work, not this way!* She quickly swung the door open and slammed it behind her, not looking back once.
Vash stared at the ground, tears flowing freely down his cheeks. *Why?*
The suns were already setting, and Vash had been at the saloon all day. He couldn't stop thinking about what Meryl said. Why couldn't she love him? Why was she so afraid of their future together? He was chugging the Vodka freely by now, and he was already down to half a bottle. He was definitely past drunk by now. His visions were blurry and wasn't quite sure what he was even thinking about anymore.
Serena walked in the saloon and spotted Vash in the corner of the room, talking to the plant next to him. He was definitely drunk, and now she had the advantage.
" Oh, Vash, how are you," She ran towards him, grinning that evil smile.
" Ooo, Bob says hi!" He said laughing, refering to the plant next to him.
" Does he?" She played along, sitting down next to him.
" What do ya want lady?" He asked her, moving closer to her face. She smiled evily at him. " You know what I want," She whispered in his ear.
" I'm not so sure.... But I can fuck you if you want!" He was laughing and squirming around. He had no idea what he was doing or even saying.
She licked her lips and smiled at him. " How did you know?" She pulled him out of his chair. She knew she had to take him to his place, and show that bitch Meryl a piece of her mind. She felt Vash feeling up her thighs and towards her breasts.
" Oh, hold on baby were almost there," She smiled at him, pulling him even faster out of the saloon.
* This is soo perfect...* She dragged him down the street, towards Vash's house.
" Slow down a little baby, I'm getting tired," He laughed and tried to squirm out of her grasp.
" Oh, but we're here!" She said, swinging the front door open and pushing him inside. She slammed the door behind her and pushed Vash onto the sofa.
" Fuck me, baby! Fuck me!" She yelled, throwing her shirt on the floor.
" Aren't we fiesty?" He pulled her onto him and licked across her breast. Serena grinned even more evily then the first time, as she threw Vash's shirt off. She noticed the scars all over his body, but she didn't care how gross they were, she needed revenge on him.
Vash looked over Serena's shoulder, and there she was, her face was more than sad. Suddendly, all of his thoughts came to him.
" Meryl, no!" He yelled, pushing Serena onto the floor. But it was to late, she was already running down the hallway, tears flooding her eyes.
" What the fuck?!" Serena yelled at him. But then she smiled when she heard Meryl's bedroom door slam shut.
" Guess it's just you and me," She said, pulling herself back onto Vash. But he didn't say anything, he just let the tears fall.
" Oh, don't cry over it you baby," Serena laughed, " You've still got me."
Vash's face filled with anger." You fucking bitch..." He mumbled under his breath.
" Oh, what's that? Did you say something?" She laughed, knowing exactly what he said.
He pushed her onto the floor, again." Get the fuck away from me!"
" You're such a fucking baby! You get to have free fuck and you tell me to get away?"
" I wouldn't fuck you if the whole world depended on it!" He grasped her arm tightly, and threw her out the door, slamming it in her face. He threw himself on the sofa and let the tears stream down his cheeks. * No, Meryl, why?*
Meryl sat on her bed, furiously wiping the tears away. She really hated that bitch now, but she hated Vash even more. *Why would he lie to me like that? He said he loved me!* She didn't know what to do, she had no one to turn to. She layed her head down and sobbed even harder.
" It's all my fault," She mumbled to herself. She didn't know why she was blaming herself, again. He was the one fucking the whore, not her.
Vash was long passed out by now, but he still kept thinking of Meryl, even in his dreams. He couldn't believe the things he did to her, he put her through so much pain and suffering. But then he remembered what she said. 'I just can't love him' Her words still played over and over in his mind. They weren't together or anything so why did he feel so bad? He told her he loved her, and she declined, yet why did he feel so guilty. It's not like it was his fault... He was drunk and she had taken advantage of him....
