Have you ever watched a romance movie and just cried until you thought your heart would break? They suck you into thinking love is wonderful and charming.
Then something happens and it hurts as your heart is ripped apart.
Then, it ends like it began for that happy ever line that sells the movie tickets.
Well, let me tell you a REAL love story......

****************************************************


The first time I saw him I thought he was a mugger,
what with the way he was following me and all. He was a handsome and annoying know it all, and I knocked him on his- um.... back.

After that Mr. Cryptic would show up out of no where and give me warnings and sometimes help. And of course I fell for him, hard.

Our first kiss was wonderful, sweet, heartstopping and one of the most terrifying experiences of my life. But that was a lifetime ago and a WHOLE other story.

After that we shared everything.Our love, heart's,soul, everything.
Everything, that is but for sunlight.

Huh? You're saying, right?Well, after two years with him I've learned a thing or two about being cryptic.

He gave me a ring, an Irish wedding ring.

He thought he had to leave for an extended period of time and wanted to let me know that he'd always be with me.

Well, he didn't leave, at least not yet.

That night we fought for our lives and our love.We won the fight but not the battle.

It was the most wonderful and sad night of my life.It was my birthday.


After we fought for our lives and escaped, we went back to his place where I seduced him.
Oh how wonderful he was, so gentle and loving.

Then he......changed.
*****************************************************

He 'became' mean and began to torment me and my friends. When he killed Je......um a teacher, I knew I must do what I had put off for far too long.

I must kill the one man I love more than any other.

I was weak though, I allowed him to kill a friend and to hurt and torture my mentor , before I finally sent him to hell.

But I didn't send him alone, I sent my heart with him.

Then something strange, scary,confusing, and wonderful happened.
HE CAME BACK!

He was weak and confused but my love from old. So, I nursed him back to health and he became

my friend and helper again.We tried to be just friends, but it didn't work.I tried to stay away from him, but it didn't work.

As life happened around us and to us, we fought the impossible.

Then the inevitable happened. I almost lost my life trying to save his.He decided his being near me was dangerous for me.

So now, he's left me again. But this time by choice, his choice not mine.

Maybe I've grown up and matured a bit because this time I'm left with hope, not despair.

I know that life goes on.

But I know something else too. We are soul mates,some how meant to be together.I just know it.


So will my story end with a happy ever after?

God, I hope so.
Oh, didn't I tell you? I just love a good romantic movie.

The End

This was my very first fic. Sorry if it sucks.
