"I'm sick and I'm tired too

I can admit, I am not fireproof


I feel it burning me

I feel it burning you


I hope I don't murder me

I hope I don't burden you

If I do, I do."


"I-I'm so happy right now, you don't understand." Lili held the autograph I got from a while ago. She looked so shocked when I gave it to her, she really couldn't believe what she was seeing. Her smile was so huge right now, even I'm smiling because it was contagious.

"I'm glad to hear that." I told her.

"Thank you, Ms. Swift. I mean it."

"No problem."

"And how are you? I'm sorry I got carried away from the excitement, but I've been meaning to ask you this."

"What do you mean?"

"Are you also happy these days?"

"Oh... happy..." I looked down to think about it, because I was honestly not sure anymore. Death was approaching me, yet it seemed like I'm just living ordinarily with a supernatural being as if it's natural.

"You seemed very hesitant that day. It felt like you were wondering whether to eat the candy in front of you that could make you happy and I urged you to eat it."

"Ms. Reinhart..."

"Yes?"

"I'm having...so much fun living my life."

I answered her question, and I was sure and certain of it. I had to admit, ever since I met Harry my life had been- how do you describe it? Everyday had this sense of entertainment ever since I encountered a being with powers. Sometimes it could be annoying and/or aggravating, but there are times where he just makes it a happy day.

Like that day where he brought autumn to me, and even gave a small glimpse of my parents back in the amusement park.

He was there to hold my hand, to take all my pain away.

He was there to share these strong mutual feelings of affection with me.

He was there to care for me.

Miss me.

Love me.

And I was happy that someone else felt that way. I had my people such as my friends and family, but the small things he does or says have this weird effect on me that I'm just suddenly so happy when he told me he worried all day the one time I disappeared.
