"Landon come and catch me!"

"If I catch you will you give me a kiss?"

"I'll give you a million!"

"Then you better run fast! Cause I'm coming for you!"

"Haha you can't catch me!"

I turned around to look at him when suddenly the sky turned grey and the sun turned bloody red. "What's happening?" I said as I stopped to look around me. There was fog everywhere making it hard to see my surroundings. "Landon where are you!" I worriedly called out to him but there was no sign of him anywhere. "Baby where did you go!?" I began to blindly run not being able to tell exactly where I was going.

Suddenly I came to a stop right on the edge of a cliff

Suddenly I came to a stop right on the edge of a cliff. Afraid to make any further movement I froze. Just then I heard Landon call out to me. "Jade! Help me!" I looked down towards where the frantic voice was coming from. There before me I saw Landon holding onto a branch as his entire body hung from it.

"Landon! Hold on baby! I'm coming for you!" Just as I was about to reach out for his hand a sudden loud threatening voice coming from behind me stopped me. "You can't save him from his fate Jade". Cedric walked beside me pointing a gun at Landon.

"No! No! Please don't! Cedric please don't kill him!"

"Well that all depends on you Jade..If you value his life then come with me"

"Don't listen to him Jade! If killing me will set you free then let him do it! I'm not afraid to die!"

"Cedric please! Don't do it!" I got on my knees and began to beg him. He took the lock off the gun and pointed it directly to Landons face.

"Okay! Okay! I'll go with you!! Please spare his life!"

"Kiss me. I want him to see"

"No Cedric please don't do this!"

"KISS ME OR I SHOOT HIM!!"

I looked down to Landon who was looking up at me with a disbelief stare in his eyes. "Don't do it Jade!! Don't you fuckin touch him!". I got up and slowly grabbed Cedric by the neck. Bringing him close to me I looked into his dark soulless eyes. I blurred out from my mind Landon's existence. Only that way would I be able to take the next step. Cedric whispered to me "Kiss me in a way like you have never kissed him before".

I looked deep into his ocean blue eyes and imagined him as a whole different person. Whom I wouldn't be ashamed to fall in love with. A loving person with a heart of gold and sweet intentions. It was the only way I could've gone through with it. So I got close to him until there was barely any space left between us. He leaned his forehead against mine and softly spoke "Show me how your love feels like". I closed my eyes and tenderly kissed his lips.
