"I'm sorry Arthur... I can't do this."
I stare up in stare at those beautiful pair of eyes.
"What..." He starts off.
"I'm sorry Art." My voice becomes weak, taking a step back.
"But why?" He questions, taking a step towards me.
"I love my parents Arthur. But everything's gone now. All the people I love would eventually leave me." I state.
"Why should I continue feeling like this when I know I would eventually get my heart broken again."
He takes a step towards me, slowly closing the gap between us. My back was now pressed against the wall, my breathing hitched a pace faster.
"You...Love me?" He stuttered his eyes searched mine for answers.
My mouth remains shut as sudden realization hits me.
Do I love him.
His hand reaches out for my cheek, his thumb grazing over it.
"No Arthur," I pulled his hand away from my cheek, ignoring the shots of electricity flowing through "Please, I don't want to make this harder, for both of us. What if you won't be there when I need you the most. What if you will leave, just like my parents."
"I promise I won't do that," Arthur's hands find mine, his long fingers wrapped around my wrist.
"That's what everyone says-"
"I will be there for you..." He brings his body closer to mine. I can feel his warm breath at my ear.
"I promise."
