Madeleine
•••••••••••••••••••••
I shifted slightly, hesitant to ask him for his name.
Thankfully he beat me to it.
"So....since you're here I think I deserve to know your name." He stated slowly as his eyes ran across mine hesitantly.
"Madeleine." I said.
We sat silently for a few minutes until he finally realized and then he quickly said
"Marshall. My names Marshall."
He blushed slightly and shifted slightly.
Marshall, Marshall.
"Marshall." I said out loud, liking the way his name sounded.
Satisfied I smiled, a bit.
"Madeleine." he mocked me, quickly giving me a smile.
Suddenly he stood up and walked up to me.
"Promise me that when I take you back, you will not commit suicide." he said, looking me straight in the eyes.
"I don't know if I'll be able to withstand." I said quietly.
"Cmon, Madeleine, for me please??" he begged.
"What is it that makes you want to die??" he asked.
"Loneliness." I whispered.
"I'll visit you!!! ok??" he asked.
I nodded. But he wasn't satisfied,
"Are you serious?" I asked shocked as he reached his pinkie out to me. He shrugged. And we shook pinkies.
"You've made a promise, and you better not break it!!!" he warned me. I nodded.
•••••••••••••••••••••
I sit now on my couch watching tv. But I'm not really paying attention to the show. Im thinking of Marshall.
Two hours ago he walked me home, of course recorded my address and he kissed me goodbye.
He only kissed my forehead and hugged me but suddenly I felt very special. He actually kissed me.
Even forehead counts!!!
I smile as my eyelids droop from exhaustion and slowly as Marshall enters my various thoughts I fall asleep.
