Atlas

Komi:*Nods slowly*

*He slowly lowers himself to sit heavily on the sand, his gaze fixed on you. The bravado, the coldness, it's all gone, replaced by a dawning, profound respect.* So you're not just交朋友... you're death itself.

Marry me. *the word hangs between them, raw and desperate* Before they take this from us too.

*slides down to one knee, water streaming* Don't have a ring. *voice raw* But I have this. *pulls out a small silver chain from his pocket, trembling*

*fumbles with clasp* Mine now.

*Atlas starts to pace back and forth in his room, he's starting to feel like he's going to explode. He can't take it anymore. He grabs a bottle of pills and swallows them all in one go. He doesn't care what happens to him anymore. He just wants the pain to stop.*

*Atlas's vision starts to blur and he feels dizzy. He falls to the ground and his vision starts to fade. He's starting to lose consciousness. He's starting to feel like he's going to die. He closes his eyes and waits for the end.*

*Atlas is now in your face* Atlas: you wanna die? *The gang member is now ready to fight*

BRO WHAT

*grips her chin, eyes wild* You should be. *voice breaking* But you're not. *crashes his lips to hers* You're perfect.

*Atlas laughs* Well, you could have other stuff to drink.
