CHAPTER 9
-FLASH BACK-
"It's okay. You can trust me. You can always trust me" Love whispers, as she plays with my hair.
I believe her, it's okay to tell her. She can know. She should know. She loves me.
"I'm scared, I'm terrified that this isn't real. I'm scared that you'll disappear and I'll have nothing. Without you, life is nothing." I whisper, hand caressing her leg as I lay upon it.
"I love you. I'm not going anywhere." Love reassures me, I want to believe her.
But, I don't.
"Okay." I mumble softly, she nods.
"Okay."

"Leave him be. Jesus christ Mike get a life." Bella growls, as she slaps him across the face.
"Lucky your pathetic ass has Bella to defend you."
He's been bothering me.
He's always teasing.
Making fun of me.
Constantly.
Until Bella.
Bella keeps me safe.
Bella keeps me warm.
Bella makes me feel loved.
Bella is everything.
She is my love.
She is my protector.
She is my life.
She is my other half.
The half that I can't afford to lose.

"They're idiots. That's why they tease you. It's not you. You are not the problem." She reassures.
I shake my head.
"I'm always the problem."
"No." She disagrees, shaking her head.
Her hand touches my cheek, soft, tender.
"You are perfect. I love you entirely. This way. I love this you."
"Promise?"
"Promise."

"It's beautiful isn't it?"
"What is?" I question, confused.
"Twilight. The sun is just below the horizon, look you can see it." Love points.
I smile. Little things make her happy, she is so observant. She sees it all.
"It makes me sad though, the end of yet another day."
"Why?"
"I feel like time is ticking away. Always moving forward. And I'm so afraid it's gonna leave me behind."
I don't say anything. Because I feel the same way.

"So?"
"So?"
"Is it time yet?"
"Almost."
"When?"
"Almost."
"Okay."
"It's time."
"Now?"
"Now."
"Open them."
I do, and I'm shocked.
She is stunning. Her long hair cascades down her back, soft curls frame her gorgeous face.
Her dark blue dress hugs her waist and falls down to her feet.
She is a vision.
And she is mine.
"You're perfect." I whisper, as I reach for her.
She smiles.
"You think so?"
"I know so."
She giggles, and jumps towards me.
I catch her and give her a swift peck on the lips.
"Ready?"
"For you. Always." She whispers.
I smile.

-END OF FLASHBACK-
I open my eyes and cringe as the harsh reality hits me.
It's over.
She's did this, she hurt me, she lied, she deceived and all I ever did was love.
I loved entirely, I loved to the deepest depth of my soul and I loved with every breath I took, I loved so hard that I died when I found out.
I loved so much that my soul broke when she left.
I loved and love so strongly that no matter what she does, I'll continue to do so.
I love… even with my broken heart.
Even when my heart has been ripped out of my chest.
Even when I cringe every time I hear loves name.
Even when I'm a shell of a man.
I love her. I always love her.
