"Do you want the pain to go away?" He says, looking at the ground fiddling with his fingers.

"I don't know, to be honest with you. Do you?" I say, looking at the leaves escaping the winds breath.

"No, I don't. I don't know who I am without it." He says, meeting my eyes through his sea like stare.

Do you think pain is the happiest moment we have, scrunched up into a ball and shoved down our necks?

Do you think it's the world's way of saying I can give you happy memories, but I can also hurt you as if I were your lover.

I wonder if pain feels its own pain.

I wonder if it is to suffering tremendously.

"Do you think it will ever get better?" He says, moving closer, brushing a strand of my hair out of my face. "I think it will for a while, and then we will remember it again." I say lowly, almost afraid to voice my answer out loud.

"I think so, too. I think when we least expect it, it will come crawling back up from the sewer and take its claim back where it used to be." He said softly.

When you least it good and bad things occur. Nothing can be good for too long, and nothing can be bad for too long. There has to be a middle at some point. There has to be no mans land for us. There has to be a pause for us to regain ourselves. Surely, we all deserve that much.

"Can I ask you one thing before I bring you home?" He says, reaching out for my hand. I stand still in shock for a moment before I realise the safety of the hand resting on my shoulder.

"Anything." I say with a small smile.

He looks at me from my eyes to my shoe laces and then back up to my auburn hair before realising a breath.

"If you could give all your pain to me, so you didn't have to feel it anymore, would you?" I pause for a moment, realising the seriousness of his voice.

"No, I would never give you my pain because you do not deserve pain, especially not a pain that was meant for me. I would take your pain away from you in a heartbeat, but I would never give you added pain." I say, looking up into his big over eyes.

He stares back at me for a moment, processing what I have just said before reaching down and grabbing both my hands and lacing them into his own.

"I would never give you my pain even if you asked for it. Even if it was a way to save my own life, I would never sacrifice you for my own benefit. You do not deserve pain, yet you experience it. I don't know why that is. But while I am in your company, I promise to make that pain feel nonexistent if you allow me to." He says before bringing my hands up to his lips and planting a gentle kiss onto the palms of each of my hands.

"Only if you let me do the same for you." I say, looking at my palms. With a small nod, barely noticeable if I hadn't been looking at him,

he says, "We have a deal, my dear."
