Please Be My New Memories | Kellic

Chapter 6 ~ The Runaway

He's the one I want to stay with for forever and I didn't realise that I've wanted him for forever too. The world belongs to us and he'll protect me now. My home is now with him and the white blankets that engulf the land surrounding us represents the clear, beautiful feeling between us which means I'll never have to be alone again. Our music we share makes our bond stronger which I know will just keep growing day by day. I know that I will never have to visit the hell in my mind for as long as I shall live but just as long as he stays in my life that long and I know he won't leave me again. Our promise to each other reassures me of it's certainty. After a moment he draws back and leaves a smiled stained on my face and I know it won't ever disappear.

"You're never going to be alone. The darkness that swallows you.. I'll replace it with my own light." He says to me. He says it in a way that I forget how to distrust people because his words fill me with so much comfort that I can't hesitate to believe him. I've known him my whole life but have lost all my memories of him.

"And I'll replace those old memories too. With new one. With better ones. You will never have to go through what you went through before. I won't leave you like he did." And I know I've found the one. With that he slowly makes his way to his feet, never once shifting the direction of his eyes, keeping them in contact with my own. He offers me his hand and I take it as he lifts me to my feet, my back now damp from the snow I had a second ago been laying on. He's still holding my hand and clutches it tightly as he pulls me towards the direction of the setting sun which reminds me that night time is approaching which still scares me but no where near as much as it did before because he's now here to wrap his arms around me when I cry.

"We can do it, you know? We could just run away. We'd be running away from all of our problems, we'd be running away from him. He could never hurt you again that way." I'm not sure how to react at first. I can't just leave. People may have left me but I still have friends even if there's only a few. I can't leave them and I'm so stunned by the thought of running away I forget that it's what he wants to and anything he wants is worth any risk, even if it costs my life. I squeeze his hand tighter than his grip on mine. I take a deep breath and say, "Then let's go."
