He looked at me for a long while without saying anything. Finally he asked,"are you sure?" I stared into his eyes. "As sure as I'll ever be," I said. He grabbed my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. "You don't have to," he said. I laughed. "Oh but I do, I have unfinished business with Slendy. Blood for blood," I said. "Look, I know you're upset because he took your friend, but that's no reason for you to get killed over," he said. I rose to my feet. "You can't kill me, I died long ago when my best friend was taken from this world," I stormed out of his room. He jumped to his feet quickly and grabbed my wrist, pushing me up against the wall. His lips collided with mine. "I love you, ok? I know it's crazy but I do and I'll be damned if I'm going to sit back and let him take you from me," he said. A single tear slid down my cheek. He wiped it away and the backed up. "If you haven't noticed yet, I'm not from here. I'm from Australia. I'm here because 1. He took pretty much every one I knew back home and only god knows what he done to them and 2. Because I really do want to help you. So, don't tell me what it's like to lose someone, I already know what it's like." When he finished I hugged him tightly. I was astonished. "Thats why I'm afraid if you go to Wongi Forest, he'll get you too and I can't let that happen," he said. "He already knows. I'm already on his list anyway so it's not going to do any good if you run off and get yourself killed too," I said. He stood there and thought long and hard. Finally he had reached a decision. "Ok we'll both go but please, promise me that you'll stay close and whatever happens, you back out and go for help. No matter what," he said. I unwillingly agreed. I didn't know what I was getting myself into.
