I could always eat your brain!

Ulrich stumbled down the street in a haze, he had a splitting headache and he didn't know why. He couldn't remember much except her. He could see her house ahead of him, he was almost there. He stumbled across the street as well as his stiff legs would carry him and smiled as some of the memories came back. Her parent's cars was gone, it was Friday so they were probably out having dinner.

Remember when we used to get Chinese? Or would you please just hear me out for a moment before I eat my tongue it all goes wrong.

Somehow, Ulrich managed to pull himself over the edge of Yumi's fence, landing in her back yard with a snap that wasn't that of a twig. He stared at the broken hand that hung from his wrist by a piece of skin from in bewilderment. He popped it back into place, pulled himself up to his feet, and hobbled by the side of her house. He stopped in his tracks as he passed a window and saw his reflection. His skin was bloated and gray, devoid of any color. His lips sagged revealing black and broken teeth. He had a massive dent in his head revealing pieces of rotted gray matter and skull fragments. He touched a withered hand to his face and shivered.

I know it wasn't your fault when your bowling ball smashed in my head,
cause accidents they happen and I'm still alive though I should be dead!


He heard faint chattering above him and saw Yumi standing by the window on the second floor, talking on her cell-phone. Ulrich grabbed onto the gutter on the side of the house and began climbing up to Yumi's window.

I come to you tonight not to scare you or to give you fright, but to make sure that we're still an item and if possibly spend the night. Perhaps you sure you weren't sleeping in gives me a feeling deep within. I just come up from the ground if we fooled around would it be sin?

Ulrich pulled himself up to the window sill and watched Yumi, awestruck by her beauty. She still hadn't noticed him by the time she began to undress. She pulled her shirt off, a Sub-Sonics shirt that used to be Ulrich's, he'd given it to her after they'd been going out a month. She tossed it in a laundry hamper and pulled on a new shirt. Ulrich tried to tap on the window lightly but couldn't control his strength. He smashed the window open and rolled into Yumi's bedroom. She screamed and grabbed a baseball bat from beside her bed and brandished it, ready to strike.

"Oo-me, Is me, Oolrick." Ulrich groaned.

Yumi screamed and dropped the bat.

But wait, you know it almost seems that you're not happy to see me. My love that's brought me back to you so please tell me that you've been true. It seems that I've been gone so long my dear my love for you is strong! Death can't keep me away from you in your hands my heart belongs.

"Oo-me!" Ulrich groaned with his hands outstretched.

"Stay away from me!" Yumi screamed.

She ran through her bedroom door and down the stairs. Ulrich lumbered after her, out the front door, and into the street. A police cruiser turned the corner and flashed it's lights. Ulrich looked at Yumi pleadingly as she pointed at him and screamed to the police for help.

And I can see that you don't see the sparkle on my face, and I notice that you don't notice that my heart is still in place. So you're upset and you're crying and you're walking out the door, and I'm fine that you don't like me anymore!

Ulrich lay in his grave wondering what to do. He wanted to be in Yumi's arms again but he didn't know how he could do it. What was wrong with him? Was it the dead thing because being alive is over-rated anyway…

Now days have passed and so am I, no matter how I try and try. I just can't seem to win you back, maybe it's because of lack of hair, it's been falling out. I just can't get rid of this smell, no more hours of making out, why couldn't I've just have gone to Hell?

Ulrich lay back in his coffin and thought of all the good times he'd spent with her. She'd loved him at one point but now she couldn't stand the sight of him. He couldn't stand it anymore, he pulled himself out of his grave and started for her house. He spotted her across the street with…William?! Yumi smiled as she leaned forward and kissed William deeply. Ulrich's heart literally fell out at the sight of this and he felt himself die a second time.

Sex used to be so good and so was hanging out, now you're obviously sickened by me and I'm starting to doubt your love is true. Even though I'm dead I missed you every day but my skin is rotting off my body I'm starting to decay.

Ulrich gritted his sharp broken teeth and made up his mind. If she wanted monster, she'd get monster.

And I can see that you don't see the sparkle on my face. And I notice that you notice that my heart is out of place, so you're upset and you're crying and you're walking out the door, and I'm fine that you don't like me anymore!

Yumi woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of her phone ringing. To her delight, the ID read "WILLIAM". She opened it, disappointed to see it was merely a text.

Meet me in the graveyard it read.

She smiled to herself and quickly dressed. She snuck out her recently replaced window and made for the cemetery across the street. She trudged across the dew soaked grass and found a headstone illuminated by several candles. She saw the back of William's head sticking out from behind the other side of it. She smiled and began to sneak up behind him.

"Peak-aboo!" She cried playfully as she wrapped her hands around William's eyes.

She gasped. Something felt wrong, no way it was William. She lifted whatever it was she wrapped her arms around up and screamed as Williams severed head stared back at her with un-winking eyes. She dropped the head and stumbled back into the open grave, landing in an open coffin. She looked up and read the inscription on the tombstone. Ulrich Stern friend, son, loving boyfriend. A dark shadow was cast over her. She turned to see the decayed corpse of Ulrich standing above her. He looked like hell but felt a million times better after eating William's brain. Ulrich jumped down into the grave and stood in front of Yumi. He reached up and touched a dry hand to her cheek, her eyes grew wide in fear.

I'm giving you just one more chance to change your mind and take this dance. I wanna be the dead love slave, that's why I've risen from the grave. So take me as I am but if you don't I understand, but know this hasn't been in vain cause…

Ulrich growled at Yumi like an animal, a thing if he'd still been alive she would have thought to be sexy. She opened her mouth in a futile attempt to scream as she felt his hand clamp over her mouth.

I COULD ALWAYS EAT YOUR BRAIN!
