Chapter Six: Acceptance of The Unknown

I sat on the hardwood floors still sobbing about the past hour. So many thoughts clouded my mind; all of them consisted of Gerard. Then held my knees to my chest and wrapped my arms around them. Suddenly I felt a presence nearby, I froze and looked up to see Gerard. My immediate instinct was to scream and get up and run into my kitchen to grab a knife. I saw him stand by the entrance of the kitchen frowning.

"Go away!" I shouted gripping onto the knife for dear life. He didn't utter a word, he walked to me and hugged me. "I-I could have stabbed you." I stuttered shocked at what he did. Instead of holding the knife I dropped it by my side and wrapped my arms around him.

"I knew you wouldn't." Though I couldn't see him I could just imagine his smug smile.

"Were you going to tell me?" I asked wanting to understand more of this odd situation. I was greeted by complete silence, I thought maybe he was tuning sound out so I said his name. "Gerard?" Still nothing. At this time I was a bit pissed so I yelled out, "Dammit Gerard!" I pulled away from him.

"No! I wasn't!" He hissed, once again showing his fangs. I wimpered, not for the fact he scared me but for the fact I didn't trust his instincts. He widened his eyes and grabbed my hand. "I'm sorry." He apologized looking at his feet.

"Should you be around me?" I whispered feeling devastated at the thought.

"I said it once I'll say it again, I'll never hurt you I promise." He softly smiled. I hugged him and he lifted me in his arms, bridal style. He then sat us down on the couch and I hid my face in his neck.

"I love you." He whispered softly in my neck. I felt my body go cold, I wasn't sure if I really loved him but I knew I did have some sort of feelings for him. I didn't want to make anything awkward since this moment was perfect so I replied with, "I love you too."
