"Zack…"

Zack smiled shyly, "hey Freddy."

"Zack?"

"Freddy, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry for the way I treated you. I'm sorry for leading you on. I'm sorry for being scared. I'm sorry I was such a jerk all these years. I'm sorry for… for everything. It wasn't fair to you. And I know you deserve better, I just don't want you to have anyone better. But, I love you, and that's all that should matter."

"Zack, you know I love you, you know I've always loved you. But, how do I know you won't keep jerking me along? How do I know this is finally for real? How do I know you won't give up on us again?"

"Because I'm telling you, Spazzy, that's how you know. Please. …I—I know we can work."

"Sometimes, just saying something isn't enough, Zack. I need to know. I need to know that you won't get scared, I need to know that you won't care what everyone else thinks about us, I need to know that this time it's for real."

"I'm telling you, Freddy. Please, let that be enough. I need you. I've always needed you, now more then ever. Please."

"I need you to show me, Zack, I need you to show me that what you're saying is true. I need to know, for real, that you won't leave me again. I need to fucking know, so show me."

I turned to walk away, but paused as Zack grabbed at my arm, letting out a strangled cry.

He tugged me to him, crashing his lips down on mine, I felt his tears wet against my cheeks.

I pushed him away.

"Freddy, please."

I continued to walk away.
