"Do you think ghosts exist?" I ask casually.

"Hmm yes, whats your favorite animal?" Percy asks back.

I smile up at him and ponder on his question.

"Giraffes! They are awesome." I say before adjusting myself to get more comfortable.

Currently we are laying on my bed, i have my head on his chest and arm over his chest.

Our legs are tangles together and were just asking each other questions.

Its nice, relaxing and perfect.

"Am i a good kisser?" I ask jokingly.

He laughs lightly "ew no!"

I hit his chest and pout at him "you suck!"

He smirks at me "and you swallow."

My mouth falls in shock "ewwwwww!" I squeal and grab my pillow to smack him.

It eventually breaks out i to a full on pillow fight.

Just as he gets on top of me to hit me in the face my door slams open and my mom steps in.

Hmm she must be home from work already.

Normally Percy is gone before she gets back.

"Hey mom..." I say awkwardly.

"I thought i told you to stay away from him?!" My mom bursts.

I stand up and glare at her "yeah but i dont see why. Its been 2 weeks of him coming over while your at work and nothing bad happened! I didn't die! Hes nice and i dont see why you dont like him!"

"You met him at a mental institution, hes not stable! He could leave you at anytime and i dont want him to hurt you like that!" She says.

"Ma'am i would never hurt your daughter." Percy says honestly.

I smile sadly at him.

"Son look im sorry but please leave my house. Dont come back. You will only hurt my daughter in the long run." My dad says as he walks into my room as well.

I look at him feeling complete betrayal.

"He makes me happy! You cant do this!" I yell.

"I can and i will! From now on i forbid you to ever see him again!" My mum yells before stomping out of my room.

My dad says we have 5 minutes to say goodbye before exiting my room.

I look at Percy with tears in my eyes. "I dont get why they are doing this... What did i do to them?"

He shakes his head and grabs the sides of my face gently "no, Luna this isnt your fault. They are afraid of me hurting or even killing myself. If i do then they know it will hurt you to the point of destruction. They are only doing what they think is right."

"But by them doing this to keep me from getting hurt is only hurting me even more." I say as tears fall from my eyes "i cant live without you. You gave me a reason to live, without you i have nothing."

He kisses me softly and leans his forehead against mine.
"I have no reason to carry on if we aren't together, but you do. You have loving parents and a bright future. Live for me. Dont give up for me. For-fill your destiny because the world would be a darker place without you." He whispers.

I shake my head and a cry of sadness escapes me. "I cant! Not without you. I love you and that will never change."

His eyes glisten with unshed tears as he looks deep into my eyes.
"I will love you forever and always."
We will meet again. Be patient my love, my everything. Be patient."

"Meeting you was the best thing that ever happened to me." I whisper.

"Alright times up! Lets go Percy." My mom says.

"No!!" I yell.

He grabs my hand and finally lets a tear slip. "I love you Luna. I always will."

"I love you too!" I scream as my dad hold me back.

Our hands separate and i collapse to the ground.

My everything is now gone.

Im left with an empty pit of nothing.

Loneliness overwhelms me.

"Its for the best." My dad says softly.

I dont look at him as he closes my door.

"I love you Percy." I whisper.
