I'm very down at the moment, and I bet you can guess by how this chapter turned out. Hope you like and understand. (I told a girl I loved her when I was drunk- we haven't spoken since). Anyway…

……………………………………………………………………………………

Many people feel that they have to be in a relationship in order to justify their existence. The idea of being alone in such a cold and harsh world- is quite frightening; so the search for that someone who will never leave us is eternal.

Eternal because no one will ever truly understand us for who we are. We will always have to live like we are told to- if we don't want to be subjected to loneliness by our peers and family.

So the search for that other person- that someone to call 'the one I love'- is really a selfish search for acceptance.

Or is it just a search for someone to die with?

"Max? Why are you crying?" Tyson sat down next to Max, unable to deal with a situation like this. "Where's Kai and Rei?"

"I'm here." Rei said from the doorway.

"Hi Rei!" Tyson said worriedly. "What's up with you? You look nearly as bad as Max!"

"I'm alone again." Rei sobbed, clutching onto the door frame.

"What the hell is wrong with you two? I don't understand!" Yelled Tyson- almost angrily.

"Alone again…With only ever having had a brief taste of what companionship was…" Max whispered.

Hot tears down milky skin.

"What the hell has happened?"

You may fall in love with someone, in fact, most of you reading this will probably be in love right now. Maybe you love someone at your school, someone you met at a club, at a concert, one of your friends, someone you've never even spoken to or even know the name of.

Love turns up anywhere where there are people who are lost and alone.

I'm in love at the moment and it is far from bliss. I'm just lost, and she is the only person who I can see out of the darkness surrounding me.

Maybe getting what I want- still won't make me happy.

However, everyone needs someone to die for. It doesn't matter if that princess will never return your affections.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

"Maybe time will stop for us. Maybe we can rest here forever, just like this."

"That's not how it works, Tala."

"You could try to be a little more romantic towards me you know, Kai!"

"I'm used to beating you up, not making love to you. You have to realize how hard this is for me."

"I did realize how hard it was!"

"Not like that, you randy shit!"

"Will you always be here with me, Kai?"

"If that's what you want…"

"You are all I want, Kai!"

"Hold me again."

"I never I'd hear you say that!"

"Please Tala!"

"Anything for my princess…"

………………………………………………………………………………………

Do they make you happy?

Do they take away your pain?

Because if they don't, what's the point of being infatuated with them in the first place?

The person we love makes reactions take place in our hearts. These reactions may be painful to deal with or they may make our lives seem worth living again. They have the power to melt a soul of ice, and set that person free from their prison- but also the power to suck that very same life force away.

Love is neither a pleasant or painful emotion because it depends on context.

Love is always painful when hate is involved.

………………………………………………………………………………………..

I hate Kai.

I hate Rei.

I love Tala.

"Come to the light Bryan. Let us take all of your pain away from you."

It feels like something is wrong.

I'm approaching death- but something is pulling me back. Something important.

I can't remember.

With every passing second, more and more of my memory dies.

Why can't I recall what is tugging on my heart so much?

All I can remember is red hair and red blood.

And red hot pain.

"We will set you free. You can forget everything that happened to you before, and start over."

Start over? Maybe I will do that.

But then I'll never know who was red- and why they are in my heart.

"Red is the colour of blood, of pain, of death. It means nothing to you Bryan, red only brings you pain. Red will never hurt you again."

But who is red? Why did they hurt me?

I want to forget whoever hurts me. But not red.

"You have no choice. Your feelings and past are lost forever now. You have come too far."

NO! I want to go back! I want to remember.

"But you can't!"

I have to find out…I want to remember…

What tugs on my heart so much as to lead me back to the living?

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Love has the power to save people, and also lead them to despair.

So why do humans do it?
