LXXVIII- breaking apart

day 71

It felt cold. (Y/n) was shivering where she sat, shrugging off Eli's arm whenever he made an attempt to touch her.

Only those two sat in the living room while everyone else was down in the basement being shown Bella. (Y/n) was sorting through her mind, trying desperately to think of ways she could save her.

"Do you...?" (Y/n) ventured at talking to Eli. "Do you think they'll kill her?"

"I really don't know." He mumbled in response. Eli forced himself to smile in an attempt to calm (Y/n)'s nerves. "I think it's best we just wait and see what happens." He could only display these niceties to (Y/n), his deep seeded anger was bubbling inside of him. Anger at Hana, anger at Tim, anger at all of them, but (Y/n) managed to keep him from blowing a fuse. He didn't want her to see him like that.

"You'll help her, right?" (Y/n) placed her hand on Eli's legs, she could sense him melting at the touch. If she had this great effect on all of them then she may as well use it to save her friend's life. "Please, Eli, you can't do that to her."

He looked down and saw the anguish in her eyes, he never had a problem with all this death before. He practically campaigned for Max to die but now he had (Y/n) pleading with him not to kill Bella and he just wanted to do his best for her. "I... I'm not sure if-"

"Bella doesn't deserve this!" (Y/n) cried out.

"I know but it's more complicated than that."

"Enlighten me. Please, I want to understand why the hell you're doing this."

Eli winced, she was mad at him and it hurt. He didn't want an emotional confrontation like this, he just wanted to get rid of Bella and be done with this. Maybe kill Hana too while they were at it, but (Y/n) could utter a single word and make him question everything.

"Just try for me, okay?" She begged.

"I-"

The door was thrown open and Tim, Owen and Dottie entered with Hana traipsing along behind them.

(Y/n) almost shot up from her seat but she was held back by Eli. (Y/n) connected eyes with Hana to try and silently ask her what happened but then Tim started talking.

"(Y/n), you can go up to your room." He said hurriedly. "This discussion doesn't include you."

"What? Yes it does." She said firmly.

"She can't go up there alone anyway." Owen added. "We can't leave (Y/n) alone."

"(Y/n) isn't going to do anything. I trust my kitten not to do anything."

She hadn't really clocked the fact that she was going to be alone for the first time in almost a week. It was funny that now she was finally getting an ounce of privacy she wanted to stay with them.

"You can't just go back on what we agreed." Dottie frowned.

"Well, Hana's here, isn't she? She's not supposed to be around (Y/n). Everything is fucking falling apart anyway!" Tim was vocalising his stress more than ever as he paced the floor. "(Y/n), go up to your room."
