Chapter 3: Only in Fairy Tales
"Marguerite I've missed you so much" Roxton exclaimed on seeing Marguerite. "You had to follow Miguel didn't you?" Marguerite scolded. "I wanted to see you" "Do you know how much danger you just put yourself into?" "Marguerite I don't care if I put myself in danger as long as I get to see you." "Don't" "Don't What?" "Don't say things like that" "Why?" "It will make it harder." "Make what harder?" "You have to leave," Marguerite stated looking towards the ground. "Marguerite" Roxton pleaded. "Forget about me" "You know I can't do that" "You have to" "I could never forget you" They both went quiet for a while. Marguerite looked as if she were about to cry. She hardly ever cried. "You have to leave" Marguerite said softly. "Why?" "Just go" "Tell me why" She searched his face for an answer. How was she supposed to tell him all the reasons why he couldn't be around her, why they couldn't be together? There were so many. His eyes were patiently waiting for her answer. The main reason, just the main reason. "I don't want you to die" "What does me seeing you have to do with me dying?" "If you're around me you'll die" "What makes you say that?" "Everyone I've ever loved died because of me" She covered her mouth realizing what she said. How could she have just blurted it out like that? All cards on the table now what do you do. "You mean you love me" Roxton stated shocked. He was shocked this could be it. What will happen next? All the ideas of how to avoid what she said would never work on Roxton. He wouldn't give up easily He leaned in closer to her and leaned over to whisper in her ear. "I love you, too" "I don't want you to die," she said meekly. "I won't die" "How do you know?" "I survived the Plateau didn't I?" "This is a whole different jungle" "Then we can go back to the Plateau" She didn't respond "I won't die and I won't let any one hurt you" Once again he is answered by silence. "We can go to the safest place in the world if you want" "That won't work" "Why?" "Dreams only come true in fairy tales, and this is far from a fairy tale, John." "We'll make it work." "Stop it, Roxton, just stop it.we've had this argument before you know the answer" "Is that what you want" "I don't want you to die." She said quietly then turned on her heel retreating to the back door.
