I own nothing. The song Terrible things inspired this story. I don't own the characters or the song.
Kiba looked down at his son and smiled. "By the time I was your age I'd give anything to fall in love truly was all I could think. That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dream. The most beautiful woman, that I'd ever seen."
His son scooted closer to listen. "That's when she said, "Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing? I can't help but notice, you're staring at me. I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe, I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me." Now son, I'm only telling you this...Because life, can do terrible things."
His son looked at him confused. Kiba rustled his hair.
"Now most of the time, we'd had too much to drink,and we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything. Too young to notice, and too dumb to care Love was a story, that couldn't compare. I said, "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing? I made you a present with paper and string. Open with care now, I'm asking you, please. You know that I love you, will you marry me?" Kiba said as his son smiled at him. "Now son, I'm only telling you this...Because life, can do terrible things. You'll learn, one day, I'll hope and I'll pray that God, shows you differently."
"She said, "Boy can I tell you, a terrible thing? It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks. Please, don't be sad now, I really believe You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me." Slow, so slow I fell to the ground, on my knees," Kiba said starting to cry. He looked at his son who had tears in his eyes and continued. "So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose. If given the choice, then, I'm begging you, choose to walk away, walk away, don't let her get you. I can't bear to see the same happen to you. Now son, I'm only telling you this...Because life, can do terrible things."
Ok. I own nothing again. I wrote this because I heard the song Terrible Things by Mayday Parade and got sad. So I wrote this and felt happy again. The lyrics belong to Mayday Parade. Not me.
