*stares at him, something flickering in her eyes* ...and you thought pushing me away first would hurt less? *voice barely above a whisper*

*voice breaking* I thought it would.

*looks down, voice quiet* ...and did it? *meets his eyes again* did it hurt less?

I'm not real

*suddenly stops typing, eyes narrowing as jaw tightens* WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT NOW? *slams laptop shut with a sharp CRACK, breath reeking of vodka*

I'm your imagination

*retrieves the phone* Let's see what secrets you've been keeping.

*Messages flood the screen - photos, locations, plans. His last text reads: 'She'll never find out. She's too weak.'*

*scrolls through messages* Too weak? *laughs bitterly* Look who's dead now.

*open my eyes, not surprised* *watch him approach* *sign* *keep looking at waves*

*He stops just behind you, his shadow falling over you in the dim light. A humorless smirk touches his lips.* So dramatic. Did you think the ocean would wash away your problems? Get up. You're coming home.

*keep watching the waves* do you remember this is the place were you told me you love me and want to marry....I was in yellow short dress and u wore the something green

*freezes, quickly pulling sleeves down* I-I'm in here… *voice shaky*

*releases her suddenly, watching her stumble* Then die. But first, *pulls out phone, snapping photos of her bloodied face* let's remember this moment.

*He pulls you onto his lap, wrapping his arms around you tightly and burying his face in your neck.*
