Description lol this looks like the prelude to my older picture "Her Worst Nightmare"

[link] <--- That's the picture. Check it out if you haven't already...I love it.

Thing is the story here is different.

The big part of the story is what you don't see.

It's all based on a dream I had.

Lemme set the stage.

-----

Aaron and I have just gotten together for the first time in nearly a year...which is something I'm desperate for in reality, but can only get in my dreams, since nothing is around to bring us together anymore.

I haven't gotten started talking about my feelings yet. He's promised he'll be around for awhile, so contrary to what I tell everyone, I relax and just try to build our friendship a little bit. Don't get me wrong...I plan on telling him within our first few meetings.

Anyway, so we're walking together, when all of the sudden some stranger holds up a gun and aims it at us.

"Don't try to run. I took care of your brother, and now it's your turn!"

Don't ask me why this person was after Eli and Aaron. It was a DREAM. Well...more like a nightmare.

So what happens is Aaron shields me out of instinct, but I'm not going to watch the most important person in my life, my miracle, everything I freakin' live for, the only freakin reason I breathe! get killed right before my eyes.

What you don't see is me grabbing Aaron and pushing him down and out of the way before the bullets hit him.

Though the guy didn't get his target, he can't risk getting captured. So he runs.

Tears forming in his eyes, Aaron looks for a sign of life from me, and when he realizes I'm breathing, labored, but still alive, he gets angry. He wants to know why I did it.

And so I say, "Because...I love you. I should have said something a long time ago. Now at least...I know that you know. If something...goes wrong..."

Silence.

That's not how it was supposed to go, but it happened anyway. Suddenly the girl who revealed the depths of her heart to him in her words and her actions is dying in his arms. What can he do while he waits for help to come?

Wipe a tear away from his eyes and try to find his voice to whisper, "I...love you too."

-----

Aranelion and Camillia graciously acted this out for us. As for the shooter here, lawl, it's up to your imagination to come up with who would want to kill the twins, in both my universe and the real one.

Just remember, it ain't Zenith and Nadir...they don't use guns.

...I miss Aaron so terribly now. I feel so completely dead.

It was this day last year that I finally spoke to him again. I hadn't talked to him since the movie back in March, and while I was outside trying to find Midnight, Mom called Aaron and asked him about yardwork. He needed the money so he agreed. I talked to him and he promised to come over.

To this day I think he came over 95% for the money...he was in desperate need for it after all. He and I barely talked. Lord knows I probably broke his heart and he couldn't find the words to say.

But still, he needs to know all this. I'm about to offer a reward to someone to track him down and tell him everything.

I know...I should be serious. But...really, I think he has a better chance finding out that I love him from a billboard.

All I want for my birthday is...something to happen for me and him...that's all.

I'm tired of having dreams of people hunting us down and trying to hurt us. Each time it's a toss-up to which one of us will sacrifice ourselves for the other.

I just hope that each time it's me. I don't know what I'd do if I lost him. Friend, boyfriend, husband, whatever, I need him in my life. Not having him is like not having enough air to breathe...or any at all.

The real terror here is not the gun pointed right at you. The real terror is realizing you might be moments away from losing the one person who means the world to you, because he is your entire world.

You can't breathe without him.
You just can't survive.

So what do you do?
You take the bullet for him.

Better to die knowing he'll live,
Then to live knowing that he'll die.

...tell me about it. But if you've seen my signature you know I already know the answer to it. I'd live it out the same way if it happened for real.

Lately I either have dreams about Aaron being hurt, or things working out.

I just want an answer..

...I don't need the gift. Any words about Aaron and me are from my heart and soul. I don't have to think about what to say when it comes to him and these dreams.

But thank you. I do appreciate the compliment.

Better to die knowing he'll live,
Then to live knowing that he'll die.

That is such a beautiful sentiment.
And again so wonderfully rendered. This pic does indeed look like a prelude. I can see the emotion put into this, as I can with everything that you do. This one's a fave, for sure.

And I meant it from the bottom of my heart. I wasn't simply trying to be poetic.

Thank you so much I really, greatly appreciate it ^^
