"Please stop doing this to yourself," Garin said. "You're not a bad person, you were only trying to help, and you did."

"But that doesn't change the fact that I caused you pain," Aquaria said. She stood up from the bed and shook her head.

Garin whined a little. "Get back here," he said, standing up as well.

"No!" Garin cried and hugged her from behind. "Please, Aquaria. Never say that again! It's so far from the truth!"

"I need you, so much," Garin replied, quietly as well. He held her tightly, burying his face into the back of her shoulder.

Aquaria stood there silently, letting Garin hug her. She still hated herself for what she did to him. Absently, she rubbed her wrists again.

"Don't be sorry, Garin," Aquaria said. She bowed her head and thought about Garin's request. "And I'll stay," she added, still rubbing around the bruises.
