Summary: Maritza sees herself as a Monster after everything she did.Nicky however disagree.

"Welcome to Golden apple Amusent park"

The sign near the tree said.Maritza slowly started to enter,a strong feeling on the chest made her only feeling more uncomfortable.

She had no idea on how she arrived there or why she was even entering,it was night and no one was there in that moment, the clouds covered all the moonlight it was already a challenge don't stumble in this darkness,but sfrer a moment all the shadows disapeared,a giant Circus tent and his light had bright all the night,but despite that Maritza didn't feel safer,at all.

She was thinking to step back but then a painful scream broke the hair, She could have recognize that voice even years later,she ran in thet circus tent.

Lucy,her old best friend.She was on the floor covered in blood, "LUCY" Maritza screamed at the sight and knelt near her friend trying to find a way to save her, but before she could anything two angel wings grown on Lucy's back and she was starting to turn up against her will.

"Mari...Mari help me please...please...i don't want die" Lucy begged between tears.

Maritza grabbed her best friend's hands trying to take her down "Don't worry,i won't let you,i won't,i-" she didn't even finish to talk and her graps broke, She wasn't strong enough to hold her.

"Mari,why you left me,Mari...i thought we were friends..." Said Lucy in tears, and now too high to be reached she dissapear passing towards the Maritza usual tan skin turned pale, no,no,this wasn't happening,not again no,tears started to fall on her face.

"It's Always the same story with you" Maritza looked at the origin of the familiar voice and saw, Mya and Aaron were there,all of them looked at her with a death glare.

"Mya,Aaron...What-"

"SHUT UP ESPOSITO" Mya yelled at her in a blind rage,but why... why she was angry...why...

"You are the worst you know that right? You are the worst person i have ever met,you have been nothing but a terrible egoistic jerk,i can't even believed we were friends Once,After everything you have done you should have been the one killed,not me or Lucy.YOU LEFT ME AND AARON WHEN WE NEEDED YOU,YOU ARE THE WORST LIVING BEING IN THIS STUPID CURSED TOWN.I HATE YOU" Continued Mya.

Maritza tears started fall more and more, She wanted talked back but she felt...she felt that Mya was right...for everything... "Let's get out of here Mya,she doesn't deserve our or anyone's company, She deserve to die alone" Aaron spoke for the first time,he took his sister hand and entered in a room,and closed the door with so much strenght to create a Maritza could barely realized what was happening when she suddently heard another voice and looks behind

"Maritza!" Nicky screams in pain,He was in chain and something was trying to drag him away.

"NICKY!" Maritza cried,she quickly tried to go to save him but she couldn't,she  couldn't move,she was like Frozen in time

"I have trusted you; you were my friend, and you left me, and now don't even try to save me. Now I will die alone in his basement. Did you really care so little about me?" And Nicky Simply dissapear as Aaron and Mya behind a door.

Her body returned to work, and she slowly went to open that fucking door, but before she could do that, Mr. Peterson, in a clown costume, got out of that door and grabbed Maritza by her neck so hard she started to feel the taste of blood in her mouth.

She tried to willing out but nothing. He was too strong, she was too weak, and she tried to scream, but no words came out of her mouth. Peterson then grabbed a knife, pointed to Maritza's neck, and... Maritza woke up from that nightmare in panic and breathing loud.

For a moment she didn't even recognize where she was, and then she saw him, Nicky sleeping in his bed, and Enzo and Trinity sleeping near each other in sleeping bags.

She remembered it now.

Since when Nicky got kidnapped, the four kids shared a room where they were sleeping together, mostly because Nicky had still too many traumas and just wanted somebody that wouldn't have left when he needed help...

"Someone totally different than you idiot, someone that is actually a good friend for Nicky," she thought to herself.

She gave a look at Nicky, who strangely seemed a sleep. She smiled. Nicky looked really cute when he was sleeping. Wait, what was she thinking? After all, even if Nicky had apparently forgave her, she could feel that Nicky doesn't longer like her, and he is probably Just pretending, and she honestly couldn't complain. After everything she had done, she didn't deserve his forgiveness, let alone his friendship.

A feeling started to press hard—a feeling of panic, sadness, guilt, and hate for herself—that in the last months was becoming more common day after day. She felt a need... that need...but she couldn't do it here, right? This was Nicky's house after all, and it was already too difficult to do it at home. She tried to convince herself to not do it, but she felt too much the urge to do it.

"Just be quick and turn to bed; no one will notice it."

"This is wrong...this...I shouldn't do it...they would think I am a freak if they knew."

"Well, what are you if not a freak?"

"..."

"Exactly what I thought. Now go and do it. You know this is the only way to calm down."

After minutes of discussion inside her head, the impulsive voice had overpowered the rational one. She slowly took her knife from her bag. She was anxious and worried, knowing it was wrong. She hoped that the rational voice would have stopped her, but it didn't happen.

She slowly entered in Nicky's bathroom and closed the door. With a little first exit, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing two arms covered with multiple scars, and she slowly started to make some little cuts on herself.

"This is for Lucy," she said, sad and with a feeling of nostalgia and with the shame of thinking about Lucy's reaction to what she was doing to herself.

"This is for Aaron and Mya," she said, making a little bigger cut while all the times spent with them returned to her mind, knowing she had been a terrible friend for them.

"This is for Nicky" she said, making a deeper cut. The blood was flowing, and tears started to fall from her eyes, feeling guilty. Nicky had been kidnapped, and in her heart she knew that if only she wouldn't have acted like a bitch and trusted her old friend... at this time he wouldn't be destroyed mentally from the kidnapping.

She looked at herself in the mirror and couldn't help but feel disgusted by herself; she hated herself more than anything else. People saw her as a victim, just a girl that didn't do anything wrong, but every time she looked at herself in the mirror, she only saw a pathetic freak that was slowly destroying all her friends.

She was ready for another cut, this time even harder, when she heard that voice, "M-Maritza, what... what are you doing?"Nicky was behind her.She insinuatedly hid the knife behind her back, despite knowing it was already too late. She couldn't read his face, and that only made her panic more. Once she could easily read and understand all Nicky's emotions and thoughts, and yet here we are, two close friends now farthest apart than ever.

"N-nic... Nicholas...i..." She mumbles. She tries to think of an excuse, but she can't think of anything.

"Maritza..." He said, She couldn't understand his expression. Was he disgusted? Angry? something else? She had no idea but didn't like it.

"Listen...uhm...just forget what you saw; I will clean up everything right now."

"Do you really expect I will just ignore that you... you were harming yourself at the 3.am of the night? Why are you doing this? This is wrong, and why are you acting like you are fine?"

"I am fine..." She tried to say, but it was obvious Nicky knew she was lying and didn't look to have any intention to pretend she was fine ."Listen, seriously, all of this doesn't matter."

"HOW ALL OF THIS DOESN'T MATTER?" Nicky yelled at her; he was clearly angry, and that really hurt her. However, Maritza tried to not give up.

"Listen, all of this is normal; I am used to it."

"USUAL? How many times did you do it already? You know what? I don't want to know. Just tell me, Why are you doing all of this?"

"Uhm, really, no reason at all just... don't worry, I won't do it ever again." She lied, but Nicky, as always, was more stubborn than her."Maritza, what have you got in mind? Please answer, What happened to you? What is causing all of these?"

"really nothing-"

"Maritza..."

"Seriously, I am serious." She tries to escape from the room, but Nicky grabs her arm.

"Maritza" "Let me go. I am all good. You are just overreacting."

"Maritza answered me! AND WHY DON'T YOU WANNA TALK? WHY YOU MUST BE SO DIFFICULT,WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?"

"SINCE YOU GOT KIDNAPPED, I STARTED TO DO IT AS A PUNISHMENT FOR EVERYTHING BAD. I DID IT! HAPPY NOW?" Maritza yelled in desperation and started to cry while Nicky looked at her shocked. His rage disappeared. She felt humiliated; of all the people, Nicky was the last one she wanted humiliate herself, crying.

"Maritza, I am sorry. I didn't mean yell,i... shouldn't habe done it." Nicky said with genuine remorse in his voice that only confused Maritza more.

"Why are you apologizing? You didn't do anything bad; it's ME! I AM THE MONSTER HERE! I LEFT YOU WHEN YOU NEEDED OF ME...IF ONLY I WAS A BETTER FRIEND...MAYBE I COULD HAVE PREVENTED LUCY'S DEATH...I COULD HAVE PREVENTED EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED WITH AARON AND MYA...I COULD HAVE PREVENTED YOU FROM GETTING KIDNAPPED! I AM A BAD FRIEND AND A  MONSTER.I WISH I WAS NEVER BORN. AT LEAST I WOULDN'T HAVE RUINED SO MUCH OF EVERYONE'S LIFE,"

she continued to cry, and her mouth started to move against her will. But before Maritza could even continue, Nicky...put his arm on her shoulder, and he slowly pulled her in a hug. Nicky was never one that liked physical contact, so this really shocked her, but she guessed being in a basement for so long made him desire more physical interaction, but this didn't explain why he looked like he wanted to comfort her.

"Mar... Listen...I know the last times we talked...we weren't in a good mood...let's say that...but I want you to know I don't hate you. Don't get me wrong, you hurt me. I don't think I can deny that, but you showed me multiple times to be genuine sorry for your mistake, and honestly, it doesn't matter how big, that was just a single mistake. I would lie if I said I didn't think at you all the days in...in...in...that house...even if honestly I would really want to know...why didn't you trust me? If you don't want, tell me it's okay, but  remember,  wouldn't get mad in any case at you."

Nicky's words create in Maritza's heart a new feeling—no, an old feeling that she hadn't felt for months and that she could feel every time she was with Nicky.hearing these words from him...make her feel Better than any other word anyone else could have said. She took a breath. Despite her insecurities, she wanted to be really open with him, just like he somehow did right now.

"W-when I saw you that missing poster, I...well, I made a stupid connection...I knew you didn't truly give up on Mr. Peterson's case as everyone else...and I didn't do it too...but when I saw that you had that missing poster, I thought...that you were setting fake proves...just to convince us to continue to investigate against our parents will...I felt betrayed...like you weren't totally honest with me...like if our bound meant nothing for you, like you didn't trusted me...and ironically, at the end I am the one that left you...and I almost lost you... Probably the grief for Lucy and the sense of guilt I had for Mya and Aaron didn't  help." She said,More she spoke, more her voice became lower.

Nicky pulled her in a closed hug."Mar, listen to me. I know you are not a monster, ok? You are not everything like that, and honestly, I can't blame you for not having trusted me... Mr. Peterson is a good manipulator; he manipulated all of us, including me. Anyway, Maritza, you shouldn't feel guilty for everything that happened; it's not your fault."

"But I-"

"I don't know what you truly think, Maritza, but I think that if Aaron, Mya, and Lucy were there, they would forgive you either, because we all saw what a special person you are. You are honest and brave enough both to admit your mistakes and go to Mr. Peterson and hit his ass with your baseball bat."

That caused a little smile and laugh at Maritza, and she slowly started to feel even more better...

"Nicky, are we still friends?" she slowly asked, insecure if that was a good question to ask.

"Yes," said Nicky without insecurity or excitement and pulled her closer.

The two stayed like this for some minutes, then Nicky started to speak again.

"I think we should return to bed. We will continue this conversation tomorrow, ok? And never ever again, self-harm got it?" Maritza nodded even knowing she would have difficulties stopping, but if that would have made Nicky happy, then she was ready to do it and do it successfully.

Nicky took Maritza's hand, and both of them started to blush, and they slowly returned to Nicky's room, careful not to wake up. They returned to Nicky's room, but for some reason no one of them left the other's hand.

They stared at each other for a moment, and with an almost perfect understanding of the other, they both climbed Nicky's bed, and they stayed near, hearing the heart of the other, until they slowly fell both asleep.
