Tallis rested her chin on her knees, her arms wrapped around her legs. Flower petals littered Taylor's grave; she had destroyed a whole bouquet. "I talked to Jeremy about marriage, it scared him shitless." She sighed, leaning her forehead against the cold marble. "I still blame myself for your death, even though my therapist said it's not my fault by any means. The more time passes, the more I miss you." The sound of footsteps ended her conversation with Taylor.

[b]"Wanna tell me what's going on?"[/b] Tillman asked as he offered a cigarette to his best friend.

Truth be told, Tallis didn't want to tell him anything...but she needed to tell someone. Who better to tell than the love of her life? "He broke me, Jeremy. I can't sleep and I don't want to eat. I panic everytime someone gets too close to me. This life I'm living is a nightmare. I've never been so scared." Tallis couldn't look at Jeremy as she poured her heart out. What would he think? 

She was making him look weak.
