"Please, Marshall."

"No! I can't do that to you!"

Hands gripped my pink, tense shoulders.

"I do not want something as horrible as that for you!"

"What's so horrible about wanting to be with you forever?!" I screamed.

"That's not it! Put me out of the picture! Now imagine everyone else you've known and loved, leaving you! Leaving you and forgetting about you! Your parents! Your friends!"

I clenched my fists and pushed his hands off me.

"Everyone fucking hates us anyways! So what's the point?!"

He looked at me, and shook his head.

"What?!" I yelled

"You have no damn idea what it's like. To live forever. It's excruciating. Do you not see what it's turned me into? I'm the most anti-social, hate-filled, shitty excuse for a person. I'm barely a person. I can't let you become that. I love you. I'd love to be with you forever... I really would. But I don't want you to live like that."

I wanted to understand him. But I was so angry.

"Marshall. Living with you would make all that worth it! Why can't you see that? Why?!"

I pushed Marshall away from me. I stumbled out of his room, down the ladder.

"Bubba! Where are you going?!" He yelled. I hurried out his front door. Tears streamed down my face.

I sped down the dark road ahead of me. I couldn't see 2 feet in front of me.

I finally stopped after a couple of minutes of running. I leaned against a tree. I pulled my knees to my chest and laid my head on the tree. I cried.

Why can't he see that I love him? I love him, I love him. So much. I want to be with him forever no matter what. I can get through anything with him by my side. I just need him.

If he... turned me into a vampire... I could be with him forever. It'd be a painful process. But it's worth it.

Water dropped on my head and slid down my face. I looked up at the dark sky.

Great. Rain.

Sprinkles fell from the sky and hit me, and the ground.

I wonder if Marshall is looking for me. I mean, he can fly and stuff so, why hasn't he found me yet?

He probably doesn't care.

I sighed as the rain wet my hair. It fell in my face. I clutched my pant legs, and started breathing heavily.

"W-Why.. Marshall?" I cried.

I threw a rock that was sitting beside me.

"Fuck!" I yelled. I squeezed out tears. They mixed with the rain on my cheeks.

"What's the point anymore..." I whispered to myself.

"I was really concerned about your mental health. I mean, when I was away from you, I felt like I was slowly gonna go crazy. I need you with me. Or I... I don't know what."

"Bubba, I don't know what I'm gonna do when your gone. You're my everything. I know this isn't a great time to say this but I can't keep it in me. I love you. I love you so much, and the thought that one day you won't be next to me, is painful. You don't know what it's like to live forever. People have come and go out of my life. People I care for. People I love. It's a long painful wait. A wait for an eternity to be over. The longer I sit and wait, the lonelier I get, the more painful it gets. Bubba I just want you to know how much I love you. Because I never know when I could possibly lose you..."
