They threw me in a cell and locked the door.___lex._ The strangled feeling has moved from my throat to my chest, and without realizing it, I have begun to cry. I move toward him.

It__ the only way to know you__e really in love, when you ask the question would it be harder to watch him die, or to know he__l watch me die? Is there more mercy in being the one who does the watching or in being the one who does the dying? It__ when you realize what mercy-killing actually means, it__ when you actually care to the point of tormenting worry. It__ not roses and white horses, it__ fucking brutal and it can send a person running for the hills. To love is brave.
