He gripped his hands tight around Ambrosia's throat, her hands clawed at his hands, her eyes struggled to stare into his eyes.

She could feel the tip of her toes struggle to touch the bottom of the wall, she could feel her breathing struggle, she could feel herself staring to black out.

"STOP!" The woman's voice echoed in Waltz's head. "STOP!" She cried out "YOUR KILLING ME!" She let tears roll down her cheeks.

Ambrosia slammed her hands on top of Waltz's hands "STOP!" She struggled to hold her tone as fear escaped through her words.

Waltz startled his attention towards her, he looked at the character he had created. He noticed the marks around her neck, he noticed her smudge red lipstick, he noticed her usually neat hair now all over the place, he noticed marks around her wrists.

"Please. Please. Stop." She cried.

Waltz let her keep begging, he let her suffer her pain in front of him. He had no heart to listen to her.

"Waltz. Please." Ambrosia let her eyes focus on his.

Waltz softly peeled Ambrosia's hands away from his "I'm the writer. This is needed."

Ambrosia slammed her hands on top of his again "IT'S NOT!" She screamed before sniffling. She saw something in his eyes, something in his eyes that showed her a scary truth "You love me. You love me, don't you? You want me to be protected, you want my family to be protected."

"Ambrosia." He sighed.

"Killing me won't save you."

Waltz furrowed with confusion.

"Your wife is trying to bury you, isn't she?"

"Ambrosia."

"Waltz." She carefully lifted up one of her hands and run the back of her hand down his cheek "Waltz." She teased his name "You love me, right?"

"Ambrosia."

"Waltz." She purred.

"I need to finish this story."

"No, you don't. Leave me unfinished. You and I can have time together."

"Ambrosia."

"Waltz." She slowly closed the laptop lid forcing Waltz to move his hands away from the keyboard, she reached one of her hands out to him "Waltz." She teased.

Waltz looked down at her hands "Ambrosia."

Ambrosia shook her head as she kept her hand out.
