"I protect him as if my life depends upon him, as if without him I would die. I know without him I die spiritually but not physically. The world may not end if he leaves me, but my world would come to an end, would come to a complete stop. And if no one was there to shoot me, I'd do it myself."
Her words were clear, tears welled in my eyes as I heard these words; I knew exactly who she was talking about. We looked at each other in pure silence, for no words needed to be said.

As high school drew closer to an end, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I had been right to make those choices. I knew that Delilah Profitt couldn't have ever given any of this to me. And the day Rose Elizabeth Delwood said yes, and the days I spent with her, are and always will be, the best moments of my life.
I sensed the danger in her eyes, the eyes of darkness, but of all that is good, all that is…..love. Day like this seemed to last forever, when all we could do was love each other for who we are. A never ending, unfailing love may start with a simple kiss, a simple kiss that may mean nothing, may turn into something and happily ever afters do come true.
