               ⧚Are you sure you want to be by my side? Death is the only way out if you're with me.⧚ "I am sure. And the only way I would ever leave your side is if I died," said Ian. "But I swear I won't die or leave you alone. No matter what I will stay alive and be by your side," he added in a serious tone. ⧚You know staying with me won't just be for a few hundred years.⧚ "Does that mean I can be with you forever?" he asked with a big smile.

⧚I am being serious here.⧚ "So am I," said Ian looking at ⨊ with a serious expression. ⧚No one can know about our... about... you will be my servant or bodyguard or slave in the eyes of others. And that is how I would present you. If I ever talk about you, which I won't. And I won't introduce you either. You would be in the shadows, nothing more if I take you along.⧚ said ⨊ rambling on. Pointing out all the bad points of being with her.

"I know. I am nothing more than your servant and I will never tell anyone about us," said Ian. Knowing that ⨊ was attempting to talk him out of being with her. But Ian had always said he would protect her in the shadows if he couldn't stay by her side. ⧚And I am not your girlfriend.⧚ "⨊ you..." ⧚The term girlfriend is too low. It isn't meaningful in my eyes.⧚ said ⨊ interrupting Ian. "Sorry, you are my wife," said Ian happily. ⧚In your dreams. I would never get married. I would be your partner...in every form.⧚ mumbled ⨊ with her voice becoming small at the end. ⧚I mean... If we were together...If you...⧚ "You are my partner in every form," whispered Ian kissing ⨊ on the lips tenderly so as not to injure her. "My little love,"
