I guess it was nice of you to find some icons for me. But I don't get it. Why me? Why are you writing for me? Are these my words or my own? Am I in the story? I don't WANT to be in a story, even if it's on the internet.

And who's Shia Lebouf? Why am I running from him?

... Yeah, we did...

[She holds his hand, squeezing it tight.]

You really promise?

[She trusts you, Norman. She trusts you won't leave her. You're all she has.]

[never_asked]

[Norman, being the social juggernaut he is, slowly nuzzles her. He'd make sure he'd stay by her anyway he could....he'd have to, somehow.]

Yeah, I promise. I'll be there for you, always. Even if you don't think I am.

[gosh Norman you're so smooth with the ladies. Aggie softly nuzzles back, feeling so warm and safe with him. She knows you won't let her down, Norman, you're a good person. A wonderful person, the kind she never was able to find when she was alive. If only there'd been someone like you during her time...
... If only she could be alive with you now.

No, thinking about those things will only make her sad. And right now, she doesn't want to be sad. She just wants to be with him, where everything is okay, and always will be.
As she affectionately cuddles him close, her pale cheeks actually blush despite her ghostliness, and she finds herself starting to tear up from nothing but complete happiness.]

[It just feels good to be near someone, anyone who felt like he did, who understood him. Most of all it felt good to be with someone who didn't fear him. He feels a pang of regret. Maybe if he did live in her time, he could stop it all from happening--the curse, the zombies. And then she could have grown up, THEY could have grown up together...but that was all in the past, nothing he could do to change it now.

She felt a little cold but even then he could sense those tears welling up.]

Agatha...are you alright?

[nomorebedtimestories]

[With a small sniffle, but a smile, Aggie nods, showing him those tears in her eyes are from joy.]

I'm okay. I'm just so happy to be here with you, Norman!
Because when I'm with you, I'm not sad, or scared. And for a long time that's all I was...
I'm finally not like that anymore. I'm so happy now, because... because of you...

[In a loving embrace, she nudges her face against his chest, the tears falling down her blushing cheeks having a bit of a shiny, ghostly glow.]

I don't want you to ever go away. Even if we find my mommy, I just wanna stay with you, I-I...
I won't go to sleep again, if it means leaving you!

[never_asked]

[Norman rests against Agatha. He holds her back, though part of him fears for her. He trusts her, he trusts that she can finish her business, even if it means watching over him.]

It's ok if you go to sleep...or if you don't. Whatever makes you happy, I won't choose that for you.

[nomorebedtimestories]

I-I know I'm dead, but I wanna stay with you, I just want...

[She knows what she wants.
But she knows just as well it's impossible.
It's how happy Norman makes her that makes it all the more heartbreaking.]

[never_asked]

Then you can stay...

[It hurts Norman to see her going through this. So he just holds her close, wiping at the tears as best as he can, hard as it is being a ghost an all.]

[nomorebedtimestories]

[She holds him back, as closely as she can, enough to feel his heart beat... wishing hers was beating along with it.]

I'll stay... I-I'll stay with you forever...!

[never_asked]

If that's what you want...

I'll stay with you.

[nomorebedtimestories]

I-I want that.... so much...

[More than anything, she wants that. But she can't say it out loud. It hurts too much, acknowledging how deeply she longs for something she cannot have.
So she'll just hold him, and for now, forget everything. Everything except for him.]
