------"You Won't Always Be There, Love Me When I'm Gone"------

Red hair splayed out on black sheets, a small sleeping form, looking so innocent, so pure.

He knew better.

The little chit was a wild cat. In bed she came to him like a little sex kitten, untamed. A small smile appeared on his face as he watched her sleep. It wasn't something he would normally do, but he found himself doing it lately, knowing that at some point soon he would never be able to do it again. So he savored the moment as much as someone like him could.

There's another world inside of me
That you may never see

Theres secrets in this life
That I can't hide

He pushed back the hair from her eyes gently, she barley even stirred from the light contact. He allowed himself a few more moments to watch, before he moved to kiss her. At the light contact with her lips his arm throbbed before burning hotly. He grimaced, conjuring a rose, red in the middle, love, passion, life and black, dead, around the outside. He swept on his cloak and mask, not allowing himself to look back, for if he did he knew he would never be able to leave.

Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find

Maybe it's too far away...
Or maybe I'm just blind...

With a swish of his wand and a crack he was gone. Leaving his love to her peaceful dreams, with blood red hair splayed out on his black sheets and a rose, alive on the inside, with a dead exterior on the pillow beside her with a note attached. Written in blood red ink, his last words to her:

Love me when I'm gone
