I couldn’t hold back anymore. Maybe kissing her was going to convince her that we were supposed to be together no matter how adamant she was about not letting me in to her dangerous kind of life. If she thought I’d shy away because of those demons, she was wrong! Really wrong.
I didn’t want her to go through all that all alone. Or only with her mom. I wanted to be there for her no matter what. I could even lay my life for her without hesitance. As long as she would just let me be there for her, which I wanted to squeeze into.
I just hoped she would understand how strongly I felt love for her. I just wanted her to see it, understand it, accept it—that I would not ever leave because she lived
