***SORRY FOR THE CLIFFY MATES!!***

(Still in Lucy's POV)

What?" He asked me, looking very hurt.

I could feel the tears coming out already.

"I'm sorry, Lockwood, but I can't marry you," I said.

"Why? Do you not love me?" He asked.

"I love you Lockwood, so much that it hurts. But I'm just.. Scared at the idea of hurting you-"

"You are not hurting me, Lucy," he said firmly.

"I'm going to lose you," I said, now crying.

"You are absolutely not going to lose me. I will stay by your side forever," he said desperately.

"You say this now," I argued. "One day I'm going to lose you unintentionally. And I know you would hate for me to say this, but you deserve much better than me, Lockwood. Go.. Go marry another perfect girl who is rich and all that,"

"But I don't want someone else. I just want you." He said, now crying also.

"Don't cry," I said softly, wiping my own eyes.

"You're making me cry," he said.

"See? I'm messed up."

"Don't say that," he said darkly. "You are not messed up,"

"I am, Lockwood. See how I get into accidents, and I already hurt you once by losing my memory. Who knows what would happen next?" I cried out.

"It's not your fault you lost your memory, love." He said.

"You deserve better. You deserve the world," I said to him.

"But Lucy, can't you see? You are my world."
