CHAPTER
FIFTY

Oh, Haley. My dearest, dearest Haley.
If you see what I’m seeing now.

We both know
what the night feels like, but I don’t think I could ever imagine the emotions
inside you that have brought about such a pathetically terrified face.

There’s light
on you.

Moonlight.

Where I am,
you’ll never really know. I could be there with you. Standing in front of you,
staring eye to eye. But then perhaps I’m not there. Perhaps I’m not on the roof
at all. It doesn’t change anything. Because from where I am, I can see you so
clearly.

I think to
myself, how I’m going to experience your death.

Your time is
short, but it is also long.

Of course,
when morning comes, they will find your corpse in one place or another. But
that is so far away. I don’t want to rush this. I want you to be whittled down
to the bone.

It is so
beautiful that you are searching for me. You have no idea how it made me feel
inside to know you know that I’m watching you. That I want you, in all the
worst possible ways. I think at first, I just wanted the prettiest flower in
the room, so I could crush it. But there’s so much more to you. You really
don’t deserve to die. In a way, my instant attraction towards you, now wishes to
grow into something else. I want to think of you, as my new girlfriend. If you
knew that, you might laugh at me, and call me names. Which would make me feel
bad.

I want to
draw you. You’re so perfect in this moment. I’ve got to cherish this. In a few
weeks I won’t even remember what you look like. The love will be all gone.
That’s why I’ve got to take it now.

Haley.

Are you
listening?

I hope so.

I hope your
heart can hear this.

I am going to
strip you to nothing, my disgusting little flower. I am going to own you in
every fucking way you can think of.

I am your
enemy.

As you are
mine.

Are you ready
for this?

You won’t
win. You can’t win.

But to make
things interesting…

And to make
this night be as wonderful as it can be…

I hope you
try.
