The young vampire sat on his couch, alone. He stared at the floor, eyes wide and unable to hold his tears back.

He left.

He left him.

He left him alone.

He had asked the vampire to never leave his life. Now he’s the one that left. And for what? Some random girl he had known for two months?

The vampire tensed his shoulders and scrunched up his face as tears fell down his cheeks.

The young vampire had sworn he would never hurt him. He would never cause him harm. But he left him. He broke his heart. He betrayed his trust.

His only source of security and happiness moved to the other side of the continent for a girl he barely knew. Away from everything and everyone in his life. The vampire had thought he could always hide behind him if he wanted, if he needed to flee. Hide in his chest, leap into his arms for protection. But he couldn’t anymore.

He grabbed at his hair and sobbed.

He was left behind, like he never mattered. What could he do? Who could he turn to? No one. He was the only one that had felt safe. He was the one that had helped him. That took him away from there. From her. He saved him.

But where was he now when he needed saving again?

He bent over, elbows on his knees, pulling at his hair as he breathed heavily.

He thought he loved him.

He thought it would be the two of them forever. He might’ve even asked to turn him eventually, so he’d live as long as him. He had wanted to spend his life with him.

He cried out in agony. He let his head fall into the crook of his elbows.

Six years of friendship thrown out the window. Three years of living together and being in love, gone. He was left alone, to fend for himself against the world. There was no one to save him. No one to give him hope.

He was alone.

He looked at a whiskey glass on the coffee table.

He left.

He stood and grabbed it.

He left.

He stared down at it with gritted teeth and tears running down his cheeks.

He left!

He threw it at the wall.

HE LEFT!

It shattered into a million pieces.

He fell through his knees and wept.
