Can't promise that things won't be broken, but I swear that I will never leave.

Those words have never felt so good in my ears. And now I was lost in Marshall's voice as he sang me that song, the acoustic version. He didn't have Kellin's voice of course, but somehow his voice still fits the song.

I hear his voice everyday, but I don't think I'll ever get enough of it.

It was already late into the night. We were just sitting by a lake. The field was blanketed with the moonlight. The stars were very visible and there were fireflies hovering by the lake. The atmosphere was cool and silent, except for the mild swaying of the leaves brought by the soft wind and Marshall's voice, and the strumming on his single-bladed axe guitar.

Please stay forever with me.

I will never leave you, love.

Then suddenly the moment was interrupted when Marshall Lee actually went off key! He quickly stopped his singing as well as his strumming as I bursted into laughter. "What on Ooo was that?!" I tried to make my words clear as they were blurred by my laughter.

"Shut up!" Marshall said as he laughed at himself. He put his arms around my shoulders, still laughing, and brought me closer to him, then he put down his guitar and hugged me.

"You went off key!" I laughed.

"Do not speak of it!" He said and kissed my forehead.

Moments after, our laughs subsided finally and I let out a sigh.

"Seriously love, I'll give you my best, even if it will cost me my worse," he said as he looked at me.

I smiled and pressed my lips into a hard line. I then pinched his nose softly and he chuckled.

I hugged him back and buried my face into his chest.

"I love you so much," I said onto his chest. I squeezed the side of his shirt tightly as I was so crazed with affection.

"I love you more," he said as he hugged tighter. "Should we get going now? The sun will rise soon."

I let out a sigh. I never wanted this night to end. "I guess we should."

He grabbed his guitar and stood up, then he held my hand and helped me up. "I'll see you home," he said with a smile.

"Okay," I smiled back.

We lost track of time and the sun rose as soon as we arrived in my place. "The sun's out. You should just stay here," I told him.

I opened the door. He went in and I flew to the ladder that leads to my room. He then put his guitar down then closed the door.

"I'll just go change," I let him know.

"I'll wait here," he said with a smile.

He put down his guitar and I went on to the bathroom. I took my sneakers and foot socks off, then my leggings and my sweater. Then I wore a tank top and a pair of pajamas.

I flew from the bathroom and peeked down to my living room where Marshall was waiting.

"Done!" I shouted to him and then I immediately went to bed, laying on my side.

I felt a weight on the other side of the bed. I turned to see him sitting there, and I laid on my back so he was on my right. He put his right arm on the bed to my left and weighed on it.

Silence filled the room for a while as we just looked at each other, smiling. He then started stroking my hair gently.

"You're so beautiful," he said with a bright smile.
