Is love real when it is based on lies?
Is love real when your living in a fake world?
Is love real when your running from something that haunts your every waking thought?
Is love real when every step you take together is a step closer to a fate worse than death?
Can you still love when your love is based on the death of everyone you ever cared about or spared a thought over?
A situation we are all faced with at some point in our lives is, despite all of this, will he love me or love me not?

"Scar, please just look at me." Ryder pleaded, in that calm way of his.
"Don't call me that, dammit!" I exploded. "My name is Scarlett!"
"Baby. I know what your name is. Why can't you just open up to me? Just once?" He bent down to look into my eyes, and I turned my head away. I was scared that if I looked into the depths of his warm, chocolate eyes, I would tell him everything, and I could not do that. Not if I wanted to keep him safe. Not if I wanted to keep myself safe.
"I can't." I whispered. "I'm sorry. You're better off with someone like Megan."
"I don't want Megan! How many times have I told you? It's you I want, and only you, Scarlett! We have been through hell and back, 20 times. For us! To have a relationship! And I will not throw that away for anything." I looked up at Ryder through my damp eyelashes, not prepared for his mouth to slam down onto mine. I froze for a millisecond and then threw everything I had into the kiss. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I pushed back a little to look into his eyes. He bent his head toward mine.
"I love you." Ryder whispered into my ear.
