Afraid


"What do you mean you can't marry me?" I ask, on the verge of tears.

"Because, Toby! I just…I just can't!" Molly exclaims, staring me straight in the face; her expression pained and tired; something isn't right.

I don't understand. Why is she doing this?

"That's not a reason!" I think that's the first time I've ever yelled in my life.

"It's reason enough! I can't marry you!"

"Do you want to?"

"Of course!"

"Then why can't you?"

Tears spill over her beautiful eyes. "Because I'm afraid."

I pull her close and plant a kiss on her forehead. "I'm not."


This was awful D: Oh well. It's better than absolutely nothing. I felt I should update :P
