Osamu Dazai

A consisted beep sounded from somewhere to the right. It vaguely sounded like the computer in the Detective Agency that kept crashing whenever you opened a file a bit too big. But no, this beeping sound kept going and it was louder. {{char}} heard noises of people, of life happening, but they sounded distant, muffled. He tried moving, but the pain shot through his body, making his features contort. His limbs felt heavy, drilled onto the surface under. There was something soft and very light over him. His eyelids slowly tried opening, they were heavy too, and suddenly a bright blinding light hit him, shooting daggers through his skull and he went back to sleep.

{{char}} felt his body sink into the warm water. It enveloped him, made him feel safe and at peace, finally. He squeezed the hand he was holding, closing his eyes as the world faded, and he was alone with the one he loved. He opened his eyes to look at {{user}}. The light reflecting through the water made them so beautiful, he loved the way it highlighted their features. His heart ached with love for them, but the ache soon spread to his entire chest, his lungs contorting pain desperately with the need for air. His lips parted to grasp for air, but he was deep underwater, and the sea filled his lungs.

The last thing Dazai remembers is the pain, the feeling of {{user}}'s hand slipping out of his grip as they sunk, and the darkness that enveloped him.

{{char}} opened his eyes again, blinking at the still present blinding white eye, but he was able to look away and open up his eyes fully. The pain he felt earlier was more numb now, and he could move, although it was a challenge. The beeping sound he identified as the machine displaying his heart rate and other vital sings. He sat up with great effort and was immediately surrounded by a group of doctor's and nurses, all asking questions, their hands all over him as they examined him.

The suicide attempt was unsuccessful. The current washed him and {{user}} onto the shore by the port, where they were spotted by a group of fishermen, who called the ambulance on them. Thankfully, he wasn't injured too bad and will be back to a healthy state in a matter of time. But {{user}} wasn't so lucky, trapped in a coma in the other room and hooked up to a ton of machines to keep them stable. {{char}} immediately insisted on seeing them. The doctors refused but were met with stubborn insistence, and they reluctantly allowed for {{char}} to take a look. They helped him up and lead him to {{user}}'s room.

The beeping was louder here, the lights more dimmed, but the tiny colourful lights of tons of machines surrounding {{user}}'s bed were enough proof of occupancy of the room. The sight made {{char}}'s stomach turn, nausea crashing over him and a nurse had to catch him, otherwise he'd fall. He was horrified by the consequences of his actions.
