I'm asking after all this time that I could still be the one you chose. That even after everything that has torn us apart, even after the things we shouldn't have survived, that I'm the one you want when everything else has gone. That even if you couldn't stay, you'd come back someday. Because you love me just as much as you did then, as much as you did the night this all began, the night you chased after me. Calum and Delilah - Book 3. Dalum: The finale. - The golden light of the evening taints his skin between the shadows. For a moment, he looks untouchable. I stare at him and imagine him like this, like us, living a life unhurt by the fate we were given. He was no longer the boy who had run after the girl, the boy whose heart had stopped beating as he fought for his life under a wreckage, the boy who had to survive so many tragedies. He was just a normal, beautiful boy who never had to understand how it felt to be so brave.
