How things progress
I was surprised with myself when I agreed to Zillah's marriage proposal. The answer didn't come out of me easily, as I was trying to manage the shock and confusion of actually seeing Zillahface on one knee before me.
I remember when I first met Zillah Grey. He had some whore draped across his arm and he sneered at me when he first made contact with his green eyes. At first, he was very indignant, playing mean word tricks, indicative that he was verbally pulling my pigtails and didn't want to let me know what was really going on in his head. But he was so cute with his spikey hair and badguy attitude. I remember being slightly afraid of him at first. He was a known killer, ruthless and precise, and one day he let it slip that he is a cannibal. This was a frightening concept, as how does one act around someone who eats people? He never really assured me that he wasn't going to eat me, but I ended up sticking around, not asking about his habits or questioning his ideals. I was horribly attached to him, but it wasn't at that phase in the friendship where I could just tell him how I felt. Miss Orchid Baeyond insisted she read my cards one day in her cute little shop. I remember being nervous, because I didn't want the cards to indicate anything about my feelings toward Zillah. Other people didn't need to know when I wasn't even sure what I was feeling myself. Turns out the reading told me I needed to give him space. I tried doing that, but he ended up following me anywhere I went. The cards couldn't blame me for trying!
I think it was a night I drank too much wine that I was finally able to tell him how I felt. Zillah doesn't really drink, so it's a bit of a show for him to watch others when they get intoxicated. I remember trying to be more grown-up for him, because I thought that's what he wanted. Little did I know, he liked me the way I was. We really did have great times back then, and he did give the best piggy-back rides. We also had some enduring times that were really tough, but with those in mind, if we could survive the things we've lived through together, then we can survive anything.
We are strong now.
And I love him.
