"...you were crying..."
"no that's... I don't want to talk about it. And I don't want to guilt you into being around me. You made it clear you don't want to be."
"Th-that's-not-I-"
"just... all I want to know is... why... is it- is it something with me or do you just not like me because you just don't or what is it..."
"I-I-"
He was shaking a little
"...Salem? I'm sorry, I..."
"I DON'T WANT TO WATCH ANYONE ELSE DIE, OK!?"
"...Salem... I..."
"I-I... you're just like them...I-I....I can't-I can't..."
He was shaking so badly
he hugged him
“I’m not going anywhere. No matter how hard you try to get rid of me, I’m stuck on you like stripes on a tiger. I can’t guarantee that obviously, but I will do everything in my power to make sure it doesn’t happen. No matter what.”
