Darkness. It is my life. It is my sanctuary. It is my hell.
I will steal the darkness of this world and take it all with me to the grave where it will lie restless forever, suffering in the flames of hell with me. We will rot and burn in those eternal flames. I will perpetually be a part of the darkness.
But, maybe this isn't true. Maybe that beautiful, beautiful soul will save me.
Yet, it that fair? That soul, so light and pure, would be tainted by my darkness. For that most kind-hearted child would have to travel into the deepest darkness for me is the worst sin I could ever commit.
And what I hate most is that I know that he would in a heartbeat. That damned brat would do it in one second if I asked. He probably would do it if I didn't ask him to.
I wish he didn't care.
'Liar.'
I wish I had never met him.
'Liar.'
I wish I didn't thirst for him.
'…'
I wish I didn't love him.
'Monster.'
It would be so much easier if he didn't care about me. I would be so much easier if wasn't such a noble and kind brat.
It would so much better if his pure soul wasn't so…tasty. If only that kid didn't have a soul that I wish to devour.
No. That would be blaming him. Was it his fault I am a monster?
Why? Why goddamn it couldn't he be repulsed by my ice cold skin? Why couldn't those soft green eyes be sharper when they saw me? Why did he even wish to be my light? A light of a dead man?
And what's worse, I know I can't stop it! He has all ready saving me and I can't turn away.
There is only one thing I can do for him. Protect him.
I will always, always protect him. I will watch over him and carry him when he is hurt. I will relish in the pain that his soul gives me reminding me of what I really am. I savor the intense pain as it rips through my arm straight to my no longer beating heart.
I will the smoother the feelings of wanting to hold him. I will fight to forget the warmth of his body as I held him.
I refuse to contaminate Teito more than I have to.
But, regardless, Teito's warm light draws me back to the ground and wrapped around me, saving me mercilessly even if he has to sacrifice himself.
That damned martyr.
