"Nothing is real
Nothing is true
Everything is false
Just like all of you!"
Mark screams this, over and over, covering his ears, trying to block out the shouts from the other side of the glass.
He feels a hand on his shoulder, and turns around. There, staring back at him, is the man who saved him. The man who saved him from his lonely life. The man who has given him the one thing he deserved. Love.
They embraced, ignoring the exclamations from the people behind the glass.
"I will always love you" the man whispered into Marks ear "No matter what.". Mark smiled at that, not noticing the man growing taller, and his arms becoming longer. He doesn't realise the man changing, and the screams becoming louder.
The man leans down, now becoming taller than the man he is holding. "And no one, will take you away from me" he says, before scooping Mark up in one arm and running down the corridor with him, away from the people who were once Marks friends, and to the place where he now calls home.
