[b]Icarus[/b]

Icarus was on cloud nine when Crystal's lips touched his cheek. However, her words brought him back down to earth "stop it!" he sobbed "please, just stop it! Do you have any idea how much it hurts me to hear you say those kinds of things about yourself? It feels like someone stabbing my heart over and over again! You are my entire world Crystal, your safety, happiness, and comfort are my highest priorities, everything else is just an after thought." Then the full implications of something she said finally hit him "wait...I [i]sound[/i] like a husband......but I already told you when we first met that you were my eternal partner. I...had assumed that I was clear enough when I said that. I had no idea that you were misunderstanding our relationship this entire time"
