Mera Hero (My Hero)--[may-raa 'hirō] • • • A void. A pit cluttered in darkness. Wisps of chilly air seeping into my ripped flesh, peeling back skin and revealing unbearable degrees of pain.

I...I can't bear it--I can't bear to see you like this..." He continued to whisper sweet words and promises, but I tuned it out. I tuned it out and a faint smile painted my pale face, because the only thing that I could think of was that he was here. He was here with me. I wasn't alone--I didn't feel the dreadfully consuming fear. "Colton...you're here..." A reassuring squeeze wrapped my hand. "Of course love. I'll always be here."
