To My Angel I Miss You...
“Baby I miss you when do I get to see you again”. “Soon love I’m on my way from the airport”. Todays the day I propose to my girlfriend Maria Lawrence. I’ve been away at my college she's going to be so happy I've waited five years to do this. I love her. Shes my angel.
*~*
I pull up to her house and she runs into my arms. Shes so warm. I kiss her soft lips. “I'm so happy you’re here my parents have been waiting to see you”. “Good I need to talk to your mom and dad in private and tomorrow I will be taking you out to dinner and then to the park”. “YAY”. She laughs excitedly she's going to be my wife. I know she is.

“Mr. Lawrence, Mrs. Lawrence I have a question for you”. I finally got them in private to ask them if I can marry Maria. “Go ahead dear”. Her mom's always liked me but I'm not sure about her dad. “I came to ask you if I can marry your daughter, I love her so much I just want to be with her the rest of our lives, I can protect her I would kill myself before I let her die”. “I like that you asked before you proposed very gentlemen of you, you may marry my daughter, what do you think Mitchell”. I knew they would say yes. “No, I particularly don’t like you so you may not marry my daughter”. My heart shattered. I didn’t say anything I just stood there. "Mitchell living room now”!

I hear them yelling at each other as I walk outside till Maria comes out. “Damein come inside its cold”. “No, your dad has never liked me and what I just asked them proved my point. “What did you ask”? “Something that I want us to be”. All I want is her. “Well come inside and come up to my room”. It was night and I was pretty cold. “Cuddle with me please”. She climbs on top of me and holds me.

Time later (about 3 weeks)
“Maria... Maria”! I look everywhere we were just walking and she's gone. “DAMEIN HE-”! I hear muffled screams. I see her and run to grab her. “Come any closer and I slit her throat”. I stop. “Please don’t I need her”. “PUT THE KNIFE DOWN”! Her father yells. “NO”! She falls to the ground. “MARIA MARIA WAKE UP PLEASE”. There's blood everywhere. “What happened to killing yourself before she would ever die”. Her father rolls his eyes at me. “Mitch this isn't his fault”. “Please if she was never with him this wouldn’t have happened". I broke down in tears. “I love you Maria... my angel forever and always”.
