*Rebecca looks up off the ground and stares at Tom*
"Remember?"
"Two years ago.... I was lonely.. and so were you.... I wanted to meet someone new. Someone who wouldn't leave me once I told them my secret..."
"And remember when you took me and told your secret to me? You told me about when you were only six years old... how you found that match... and how you lost everyone you loved in an instant... I didn't care that you were murderer... I only cared about who you were as a person. I knew you needed someone to care about you... I knew you needed someone who wouldn't run away in fear... I knew you needed me."
"Yes... I remember.... I wanted to love you forever... I wanted to never.......leave........ you....."

"I love you..."
"I love you too, love."
