• "You're so beautiful, you know that?" Titan asked me a week later. He smoothed some hair off my cheek. "Okay, what are you hiding?" I asked. "Why would I be hiding something from you?" he asked. "It's written all over your face" I told him. "I'm turning eighteen tomarrow" he told me. "Oh" I said. "What do you mean 'oh'?" he asked. "Nothing, just, 'oh'" I told him. There was scilence for a bit as my back rested against the oak tree and Titan looming over me, his eyes, searching for something. The breeze, smelling of summer, the silence, deafening. "What do you want me to say?" I asked. "I don't know." he said in a pained sort of way. "Sorry Titan, but I need to pull Darkness away for a bit" Hiro said popping out of no where with Ikuto. Titan leaned off me as I nodded at Hiro. "Talk to you later, okay?" I told Titan. He nodded. I went off with Hiro while noticing that Ikuto wasn't coming too.

    Ikuto stayed behind and whatched Darkness and Hiro leave. When they dissapeared, he turned towards me. "I won't let you marry Darkness" he told me. He looked pissed. "Why not?" I asked him, actually curiouse. "She was mine first, and she will always be MINE!" he nearly yelled. "You're a little late there" I said. "Just shut up, you stupid dog. I've known her longer than you have, for years! I've loved her longer than you. You don't deserve someone like her" he said, spitfully. "You're just mad becouse she loves me more than you" I said to him. His face reddened. "I hate your kind, nothing but instinct and stench" he told me. "You're one jealus dude" I told him. He pushed me back against a tree and went all up in my face "I will steal Darkness from you before you get a chance to ask her to marry you." he said and left. "Well, that can't be good" I said.
