Two-Bit ran his switchblade across his arms

"I did this, I did this, it's my fault he's gone, it's my fault they're hurting" Two-Bit whispered to himself with each swift motion of his blade. He had switch from beer to vodka and now couldn't distinguish between the living hell of reality or his own self loathing in his head. Suddenly Darry burst into the room

"TWO BIT WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?" shouted Darry, wrestling the switchblade away from Two Bit

"it's all my fault" sobbed two bit. The switch blade had landed across the room and shattered, Two Bit started sobbing again, partially out of self hatred and partially because Darry had just broken his 'only' form of release from his guilt. Darry held the now sobbing greaser in his arms.

"Two-Bit listen to me, please, we need you, I've already lost one brother, I can't lose anyone else. And what about your mom? How do you think she'd feel about you doing this, or what if your little sis had found you instead of me? Two-Bit, I know Johnny is mad at you guys but that doesn't mean you just stop living because you lose someone." said Darry softly. Two-Bit continued to cry. And meanwhile, oblivious to both of them, ponyboy was standing in the room behind them.

"No Two-Bit, this is my fault, I should have been stronger" whispered Pony, resting his hand on Two-Bit's shoulder before turning around to either go back to heaven or find Johnny, he felt awful for doing this to his family.

Sorry it's so short, I just need a filler chapter before getting into the climax. also a lot of people wanted Two-Bit to start cutting and unfortunately I'm better at writing death scenes than depressed but still alive ones. Next chapter will probably be out by next Saturday, depending on homework and if i have other stuff to do.
