A/N: A friend asked me for a drabble and here it is, only it's kinda long. Because I can never do anything like I'm supposed to. And I don't think it's what she really had in mind, but oh well. Did she like it? Nope, she told me it sucked, and that was that.
Summary: And life was suppose to be full of happiness, only it never is.

To Die

And life was meant to be full of happiness, only it never is. People hate what they don't understand, what's different, what's not the way they think it should be and he has never been anything like what he should be. He's never understood why life is full of things that only cause pain. Life isn't long enough for him to find the way to happiness. Even though he thought he knew the way, he thought he knew the girl that would make everything worth it.

Only he didn't, not really; because if she couldn't see past his ears, his teeth, his everything could she really see him for who he was? Apparently not. He's stuck to a tree in a fake death that's even more painful than real death because he's even more alone than he should be.

If he was more open, to himself or to others, he would tell everyone that the only thing he wanted was to be wanted. Accepted for who he was, who he is, all the things he can't change about himself. His ears, his fangs, all those things that make him hated. But he never will be, because that is the way that life works.

He sleeps a sleep that isn't sleep; dreams things that aren't dreams and the first thing he sees when his eyes open again is her face. And she's her, but she's not. He's angry but mostly hurt, and all he knows is that she is the one that did this even if it wasn't really her.

Life is too short to try and find happiness. All you can do is fight to live and in the end you're only fighting to die. He hates her just as much as he loves her only she's not who he thought she was, and this isn't the way he wanted to wake up. This isn't the way he wanted to die.
