A Monster's Love

Prologue

He fell to the floor, his bones breaking, and changing. He was shifting into a monster, something not human. Flashbacks hit me and a blood curling scream escaped me. I stumbled backwards as he grew fur, and morphed into a monster.

Familiar blue eyes, as blue as the ocean, stared back at me. The spark in them now gone as fear and regret flashed in his eyes. Nothing mattered anymore, all his words, the way I feel when I'm with him, nothing. He's a monster.

I can't love a monster.

Tears filled my eyes, and he hesitantly took a step forward. Realization filled me and I pushed myself off the ground, turned around, and just ran. Even though I could barely see because of my tears, I just needed to get away.

The world around me, which had just gotten better, came crashing down. I knew it. Everything was too good, too perfect. Now it's ruined. Life just can't give me a break, can it?

After running, and running, I fell to the ground. My tears turned into sobs, and in that moment, I just wanted to feel his arms around me, but I also realized, I'll never be able to feel his arms around me, because he's not who I thought he was. He's a cold hearted monster, they all are.

I'm not sure when, but slowly my sobs turned back to tears, and right before I fell into the darkness, I felt arms surround me. I was too far gone to care.

The only thought in my mind was, I had fallen in love with a monster.
