Hair Knives
Edgeworth's POV
Wright & Co. Law Offices
8:00 pm
I carefully move the broom out of the way and slip into his office. Wright was curled up in a ball, crying. My beautiful angel, crying because of me. Me. My feet pushes me towards him. I inclose him in my arms.
"No worries, I'm here..." I whisper in his ear. Wright looks up a tiny bit. Tears still drip down his red face. He buries his head into my chest, letting out ugly sobs.
"Edgeworth..." Wright digs his nails into my jacket. It would normally hurt but it didn't. It felt like odd comfort. Like he was begging me to come closer. "Thanks for coming... I think you and me are the only ones who know the feeling of being trapped and helpless..."
No... No no no no no no... Trying to comfort myself, I run my fingers through Wright's hair. They feel like knife blades that have never killed but seen murder.
"You're welcome. Also I didn't mean to sound like a bitch on the phone earlier, so sorry I guess..." I frown. Wright nuzzles further into my chest for warmth. Then out of my lips slip "I want you to stay right there forever...~"
Wright jumps back a tiny bit, handing me a concerned look. "What?"
"I mean, I truly don't like to be lonely, so it's nice having someone there to remind you that you're not alone." I try to say calmly, trying not to show my true feelings just yet. That's for the roof where he can't run from my love.
Wright breaks into a smile. I raise my wrist to wipe some of his tears away. Now I can see your face better. "Makes sense... Sorry for questioning you." He looks down and mutters something quick to the carpet.
"It's fine. I just want you to be happy." I lightly smile. I move slightly closer, reaching for his hair. No worries, you'll never kill anyone on my watch. No one will lay a finger on you soon enough... Besides me of course.
He nods and raises his head higher. My finger embrace the blades that don't long for blood. They long for peace. "Thanks again Edgeworth."
"You're welcome. Now it's about time for me to scout the roof for you. So, see ya there!" I let Wright's hair go and quickly exit, closing the door behind me. I quickly run to my office, grabbing my bag of things.
Knife, check. Taser, check. Gag, check. Sunglasses, check. My love, check. Willingness to kill? ....Check. With all things in hand I exit my office and go to the elevator. I see an orange shoe on the ground. It was clearly an adult's bright shoe. Is it his?... No. It can't be. I know he's a klutzy idiot but he wouldn't leave his shoe here. I exit the elevator, seeing a sight I wish I never saw.
Another person.
"Sup Edgey! How are you doing today? Hey... You look kinda angry. You can talk to me and I can he---"
