A week passed and Schlatt wasn't satisfied.

"Schlatt" Wilbur said, walking into Schlatt's room "we haven't gone anywhere since we found Grayson, let's get dinner"

"Yeah sure" Schlatt said distractedly leaning over his desk

"Schlatt" Wilbur sighed "c'mon, that case is over, we found Tommy's killer, he's in jail, we did our job" 

"Yeah I know" Schlatt said "but, there are just too many holes"

Wilbur sighed before deciding to humor him "fine, what's not right?"

"Here look at this" Schlatt said as Wilbur sat next to him "twelve people were killed at Clay's thing. That's a lot of people to die at once"

"So?"

"None of them had gunshot wounds, so clearly he didn't go in there and shoot them all at once, they all had the same stab wounds and hits to the head. That's a lot for one person to do"

"So what're you saying?"

"I'm saying that I don't think it was one person" Schlatt said

"No" Wilbur shook his head, standing up "we found Tommy's killer, that's it, it's over"

"And what about the book?" Schlatt continued "your brother's book, that wasn't just there, did you even read it?"

"Yeah, I've read my brothers book" Wilbur said

"No, the one that Grayson was hit with" Schlatt said "it was yours"

"What do you mean?"

"It had Dave's signature in it and said 'Dear Wilbur, read the dedication' I'm pretty sure that was directed towards you" Schlatt said

"So what, we know he was a stalker" Wilbur said "he probably stole it"

"When? I've never talked to him, I know you haven't, none of our neighbours have seen him, when did he take it?" Schlatt asked

"No, I'm not talking about this anymore" Wilbur said "it's over" He walked into his room and slammed the door, sitting on his bed, closing his eyes

Schlatt knocked on his door a few minutes later "Hey Wil, I have to go out really fast. I swear we'll go to that new place when I get back. I love you"

"Sure" Wilbur said as he left. Wilbur called Dave, not sure what else he could do

"Hullo" Dave said as he answered the phone

"Hey, what're you doing?" Wilbur asked

"I'm at Dad's house right now, packing for California, why?"

"I'm just sick of Schlatt right now" Wilbur said

Dave sighed and Wilbur heard his bed creak "alright, what's up?"

"Schlatt's convinced it's not over" Wilbur said

"What'd he say?" Dave asked

"That it was a two person job, and I don't know, it's not impossible I guess"

"It's not impossible" Dave agreed "I think you should at least look into it, cuz what's the point if the person that murdered Tommy is still out there?"

"Yeah" Wilbur nodded "you're right. It wouldn't hurt, would it?"

"No" Dave said "I should go though, Dad wants to talk about something"

"Oh ok, bye" Wilbur said. Schlatt called him a few minutes later

"Hey Wil" Schlatt said

"Hey" Wilbur said "I've thought about it by the way, and I think you're right"

"Oh, that's why I was calling actually. I think you were right, it's over, we should drop the case" Schlatt said

"What?" Wilbur asked "you've never backed down from your opinion that fast before"

"First time for everything right?" Schlatt said

"I mean I guess," Wilbur said "uh, but where are you right now?"

"I'm in the park right now" Schlatt said "but uh, Wil"

"Yeah?"

"I just wanted to say I love you"

"What?"

"I love you" Schlatt repeated

"I love you too" Wilbur said, smiling slightly "god, and you say I'm the sappy one"

"You still are"

"What's up though"

"That's it," Schlatt said "but uh, when I die, when we're old, I want my last words to you be I love you. That's what I want you to remember"

"Schlatt, your acting really weird"

"I know" Schlatt chuckled "but just know that I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you, and none of this is your fault"

"You had me up to the none of this is my fault" Wilbur said "Schlatt, seriously, what's going on? You're scaring me"

"I'm sorry" Schlatt said "I should've listened to you and kept my nose out"

"Schlatt, what're you talking about" Wilbur asked, fear creeping up his throat

"The park, go to the park now" Schlatt said. Something about his voice was different, it wasn't calm and collected like normally, he seemed out of breath, and nervous

"Wha- why?"

"It's Eret, Wilbur it's fucking-"

The phone cut out. Wilbur didn't hesitate a second before jumping up and running towards the nearest park, the one he and Schlatt had claimed as their own. He searched it for almost an hour before noticing something by a river. Wilbur took a deep breath and walked over to it, pushing it over and realizing it was a dead skunk. He sighed in relief, and walked towards a bench, sitting down. He called Schlatt a few times before the police, asking for assistance. Charlie and a few cops showed up and helped him check every inch of the park, no one finding anything for about an hour.

Eventually, a police officer shouted out "You should come look at this!"

Wilbur immediately ran towards the guy and almost threw up when he saw what it was.

"Oh god" Charlie closed his eyes and bit his tongue when he walked over. Wilbur slowly moved towards the body, more gliding than walking. There was something odd, it couldn't be him, could it? At first he could tell who it was, then he realized it was supposed to be Schlatt. It looked just like him, he had to admit, but that couldn't be Schlatt, Schlatt was too stubborn to die.

Wilbur sat by the body, his hands gliding over it, grazing his jacket. It was the exact one Wilbur had gotten him for his 18th birthday. Schlatt always joked no one had gotten him a better present since.

Eventually the forensics showed up and despite Wilbur arguing it wasn't him, he was fine, they bagged the body, seeming quite upset while doing so. Charlie offered to take Wilbur home with him, but Wilbur declined, saying he could go home. They argued for a bit before Wilbur gave in.

"Are you sure" Charlie said as they pulled up to his apartment

"Yeah" Wilbur nodded

Charlie sighed "I still don't think this is a good idea"

"Well I do, so bye" Wilbur sighed and walked in the house before Charlie could say anything, hoping to be hugged by his boyfriend, and then fall asleep in said boyfriends arms.

What he was greeted with was an empty house.

He walked into Schlatt's room when he started to think, maybe that really was him. He shook away that thought the minute he got it and walked into the living room, falling asleep on the couch
