A/N: Read it. I just spiced up an original little blurb that someone sent me online. lol, yeah I know, I know. I'm just so original. But it's rather pretty. So yeah. There's no specific pairing. It's for any het-pairing out there you can imagine. It could be guy/guy or girl/girl if you reword it. But yeahh. ; Enjoy!

--------------

The moon is hanging from the starless sky. The stars are playing elsewhere. But the moon is the witness.

They're under a tree, and the comfortable silence is just so pleasant. But she just has to break it.

She asks him playfully. "Do you think I'm pretty?"

He turns his head away, No.

She's disappointed but questions him. "Would you want to spend forever with me?"

He stares at her blankly, No.

Tears in her eyes now, she thinks it's all been a lie. She's ready to run, to leave him. She's hurting in the heart. She doesn't know if she'll heal. She turns …

But she just has to know, "If I were to leave you, would you cry?"

There's a silence but she sees him shaking his head, No.

By now the tears were falling rapidly. She doesn't know if she should be mad. But then, she doesn't really have the strength to be mad. And so she breathes, turns, and begins to walk away.

And she's walking away from the past nine months, walking away from any happiness, walking away from the living lie.

She's running back to the castle. He gets up and starts chasing after her. She runs faster, he grabs her hand.

"You must have misunderstood." He brushes away her tears, his hands stroking her wet cheeks. "You're not pretty, you're beautiful."

She sniffs and looks away. He kisses her once.

"It's not that I don't want to be with you forever." He kisses her again. "It's just that, I need to be with you forever."

He hugs her, stroking her back. He whispers into her ear: "I wouldn't cry if you left me because I wouldn't be able to live without you hear by my side."

And the moon was their witness.

END.

real version here:

A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty, he said no.

She asked him if he would want to be with her forever and he said no.

She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again, he replied with a no.

She had heard enough.

As she walked away, tears streaming down her face the boy grabbed her arm and said...

"You're not pretty you're beautiful.

I dont want to be with you forever. I NEED to be with you forever.

And I wouldn't cry if you walked away... I'd die..."

Yea, you know you want to review. =D
