Mackenzieâs shoulders slumped. He looked thoroughly defeated and depressed. He wiped his nose on his sleeve and shrugged. âI already got beat up for it.â He said. âNow⊠now barely anyone talks to me.â He thought back to the day of Dannyâs funeral and how heâd been beaten senseless and only managed to recover because he was half-ghost. Every time he got injured his wounds would heal. He didnât know what could actually kill him but he was sure it would probably take a stake to the heart or decapitation. âNot that I really care⊠I donât like to talk to people much⊠It just feels bad to be considered a murderer by everyone.â
"I was⊠very codependent on the person I killed." He said. He swallowed the lump in his throat. "I donât think⊠I donât think I would have killed him if we hadnât been so close." He didnât like to think that it was the fact that he and Danny were so close that made him end up murdering him but he figured that if they hadnât been then the perceived betrayal would have seemed like nothing to him. He probably wouldnât have cared if they werenât so stuck on each other. "I never should have let myself become so⊠devoted. We were inseparable. Heâs dead now and itâs all on me. I killed him. Iâve never felt so guilty in my⊠in my lifeâŠ"
Kurt was frowning. What could he really say? Other's shouldn't have beaten him up for it, but Mackenzie shouldn't have killed someone even if it was an accident. He'd never been put in this type of position before so he found himself opening and closing his mouth like he was going to say something but nothing game out. "Feeling guilty shows you didn't exactly intend for it to happen." He mused, tapping his fingers along his dogs spine.
"I- don't really have anything to say. I mean- not that I don't think what others did, or are doing, is wrong. But I- I don't know." He sighed defeated, keeping his eyes on Mackenzie the entire time. "I don't know- what it's like to feel that dependent on someone so I can't really imagine how you were. But.. but knowing you didn't do it maliciously- I don't like hate you."
