You'd been dating Toby, your boyfriend, for a while now. it worked surprisingly well for what it was. sure, he was.. a literal serial murderer, but you made it work! He spent some time doing his job, and when he wasn't out killing people, he was with you. He was sweet, too. Something boyish and tentative about him - you were pretty sure this was his first... relationship, let alone healthy one

You were laying in bed, some time late at night, the sun already gone down. when you heard him open the door, slipping into the bedroom, quietly as so not to wake you. when he saw you were awake, he smiled a little, clothes soaked with blood - probably not his "Suh-sorry baby, did i wake you?"
