Another piece of the roof had caved in. BF staring down the ram skull in front of him, before glancing back at GF. Another piece of the roof came down, crushing the brunette within seconds. BF’s eyes widen as his entire body lurches forward. Almost like his spine had cracked. Tabi lets out a startled noise, even within the fire and them trying to escape- the way BF fell seemed so unnatural. The ram skull picks up the boy and escapes with little to no issues. In an alleyway he sets the other down, BF coughs sharply.
“You should have left me to die.. Why?” Tabi blinks.
“I know you’re blinded by devotion to her but-”
“I never loved her.” Tabi almost completely froze at the statement.
“Well... she never loved me. I-… loved her at a time until I found out she was... you were right... but I just couldn’t leave because.... she took a lot from me.. Including my soul...” That explained a lot. BF lets out another sharp cough.
“Sorry... heh... maybe I’m finally free... thank you.. Also don’t... bother with the hospital... I don’t think I can be saved...” Tabi sighs, sitting next to the other.
“If that’s the case then... I don’t want you to be alone when you do pass... kinda my fault since by killing her I just killed you... so all’s fair in staying til you go.” BF only nods slowly, breathing slowing.
“Thank... you...” The ram skull cuts his eyes to the other sadly, he hardly knew him but the other was just like him... a victim. A sad end really...

“Hey Tabs? Wake up you gotta finish your shift.” Tabi sits up, blinking wildly. Oh yeah... work. The ghost next to him smiles softly. The ram skull chuckling.
“Sorry. Ugh what I have- oh 30 minutes. Nice.” BF hums softly.
“So what we gonna do after this?” Tabi shrugs with a smile, despite it being hard to tell it was there.
“Dunno. Maybe we can go hang out with Carol, Sunday, and Hex?” BF nods
“Oh maybe Whitty will be there too!” Tabi snorts.
“What so you can scare the living shit outta him again?” BF pouts.
“Mayyyybbbbeeeeee~” Tabi chuckles, shaking his skull and getting back to work... minimum wage was such a low blow for his ex-career timing... But oh well.
