Then she said something that nearly had him choking on his own tongue. Stepping aside??!? What do you mean stepping aside?! Are you…. are you breaking up with me… because of my friends?” It sounded preposterous to him, and not something he knew of Lexi. But he can feel her pain, he knew exactly what she meant by no matter how strong one is, they reach a breaking point. And it was killing him that he didn’t even realize what was going on, she had to suffer because of certain things about him. He gritted his jaw and blinked back the tears “Lexi, if you leave me, its because you don’t love me anymore. Just say that. And I promise I will leave you in peace. But if you won’t then I will keep my word-- I love you with all my heart and I will never ever leave you, good times or bad.”

“Luv, it wasn’t hard to figure out if I should propose to you, it was hard if I should propose at all. My folks, theirs were like a fairytale, but it didn’t end like a fairytale at all.” More like a nightmare you couldn’t wake out of “But like I said, the other option was far worse, to live alone without you? I knew what it was like after we broke up. Every minute of each day it was hell for me. I don’t want to live my life like that forever”

He bowed his head ashamed “And you’re right, I’m sorry. I… I’m trying, to control the monster.” The green eyed one but also the one that wanders. “Starting today, you have my word, I’ll only have eyes for you.” he said as he cupped her face.

He laced his fingers within hers, feeling the ring press against his skin. “Luv, a lot of people make promises that they don’t fulfill in the end. I’m not like that. I cant assure you that we will never fight, or never get into bad times. But I will promise you that I will do my darndest best, to be the best man I can be for you, not just for the first few years, but for the rest of our lives. Till death do us part.” and with that he leaned in and sealed his promise with a kiss.




Didn't love him anymore... what the hell was he on about. Blinking at him several times she shook her head. "I didn't say I don't love you. That's not what I said at all. I said I want you with all of my heart. I mean that. I haven't fought this hard for you to just... lose it all of a sudden. But I am being worn down." Truth. She was tired of the nonsense from others. "Never leave me again. You left once before... even just for a little while. You can't walk out when things get tough, Stradivarius. You cannot. It makes me think you are giving up. Even if just a little bit. Who's to say that the next time won't be the LAST time." She was speaking VERY quietly near his ear so as to not be overheard by anyone nearby.

She listened to his go on about their time apart. She had broken... badly. Taking refuge in the Ravenclaw dorms she had lain about and cried for what seemed like an eternity. Yeah. She was not a fan of that time, either. "Fairytale's are for little kids, Stradivarius. That stuff doesn't happen in real life. Things get tough. A lot. There are fabulous times and there are really rotten times to be had. That's just the way things go." She gave a little shrug and sniffled a bit before wiping her nose across his robes.

"I don't care who you are friends with. They can all hate me for all I care. Girls and blokes alike, but please... yes stop looking at some of these girls like you want to throw them down and snog their faces off. It makes me so mad I could scream... and not to mention it makes me sad. It makes me feel like they have something I don't," she said weakly. It was true. She was insecure. Like whoa.

Lexi kissed him back and wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Pulling back after a few lingering moments she looked him straight in his eyes and whispered, "If you break that promise I will kill you. You realize that, yeah?" Then a smirk played at her lips.

She still wasn't convinced they were making the right decision right then... but she had an idea of what to do before the term ended. Something that would change things greatly. Mhm. "I love you."
