Love Me And You're Dead

“Plain and simple. Three words. Eight letters. Say it. And I’ll have forever with you in it.” He whispered in my ear. My arms are resting on his shoulders, and were swaying to the sound of every creature lingering in the dark. The silence made everything special. Every memory, beautifully tragic or just tragic floating around us. . Mystical yet it felt so real.

“I love you.” I whispered in his ear. We are standing above the world and everyone around us don’t seem to care. We have our own. The world where fairytales probably exist. The haven of every sucker of happy ever after. And I felt the need to say the magic words.

I’m glad I did. But what he said, this man I’m dancing with ruins everything.

“You’re dead.” He coldly said.

"You think I'm cool or nah?" Jared asked me suddenly. He asked like a little boy asking why we can't see the moon in the morning.

"Of course you're not. You're so far from it." I answered quickly. That should sting. That must hurt. I'd be glad if it did.

"I'm hot then?" he asked again. He's showing his infectious grin.

Ugh.
