The Catalyst
Prologue: Love the Way You Lie
"Just gonna stand there and watch me burn; well that's alright because I like the way it hurts."
He didn't want it to end this way; not with the pain of having the only person he truly cared about ripped away from him. It felt as if a piece of his soul was torn from him, trampled and spit upon in spite. He wished he could take it all back. All his actions, all the things he said, all his feelings. He wanted to rip his hair out and scream. He wanted to cry, he wanted to punch a hole into the wall. He wanted to destroy every memory, every smile, every frown, every little fucking thing that was a reminder of what he had lost due to his stupidity. He wanted that smile back, he wanted everything back. He lost everything because he got scared; because he couldn't admit his feelings to the single most wonderful, amazing person who had ever entered his life. He fell to his knees, sobbing and tearing at his clothes.
Suddenly he felt a pair of arms come around him from behind. He stiffened but soon felt himself melt at the all too familiar touch that he had learned to love. Leaning back into the embrace, he rested his head on the chest of the only person that he could ever come to love. He turned into the embrace, placing his head on his lovers shoulder. He felt lightheaded, anxious and nervous as he prepared himself for what he couldn't say earlier that day. And as he whispered those three words that he swore he would never say to anyone in his life, he finally let himself free from the shackles of his inhibitions.
