To my dear Savvy. I have decided to extend the story one more chapter, before Grays death. Enjoy my sweets.
"What are you gonna do when I am gone?" Gray asks munching on a potato chip.
"Spread the word God has given us." I say with a shrug. "Butt I'd rather not think of your death Sweets."
"I understand," gray says laying flat on his stomach next to me "what are you drawing?"
I look down at the picture with discontent. "It's us but, I don't like it on the least." I admit.
Gray laughs. "Be content, you get better with time. Just like in anything, girly, you have to wait and see."
"Like with love?" I ask Gray looking down at my drawing.
Gray smiles at me with sugar and says "love again eh? Who is it this time?"
I blush a little. With all his mind reading powers I'd think he would know it was him. "I do." He says.
I look at him confused. "I know it's me. I have for a long while girly." He says looking toward Pikes Peak. My face gets hot. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't need to. You weren't being embarrassed by your actions and to most people it wasn't very obvious so I didn't say anything. I thought you would eventually, honestly." Gray says looking at me now.
I look to gray in wonder. "What do you mean?"
Gray sits up, I do too. Facing each other he says. "It's easier to say something than to be quiet. Being quiet is much more fun because then people want to know but that's not our job. We have to be open and spread the word. We are Gemini you and I," gray laughs at his rhyme "if you love me, tell me. Don't keep it from the world. It does you no good if it's hidden Ares. So let me know."
"I love you, Gray. You are unbelievable. Totally and utterly epic in all that you do and I never got the chance to say that I want to marry you. I want to marry you and have four children one Leonidas another Kemo Lee. Either way I want to have you forever. I can't. I want to but I can't." I say now getting teary.
Gray smiles and signals me over. "Once upon a time, there was a girl named Ares." Gray begins.
I lay in his arms listening to his heart beat. I don't know where his story is going but it's ok. In the least he is making this moment sweet again. I don't even know what a Gemini is. "What is a Gemini?" I ask interrupting.
Gray pauses and says. "Gemini are the best type of people. We have the capacity to do two times more than most people can. I don't know why but we have two different peoples in us. Both similar in some ways but ultimately different. One part of me is foolish and energetic, while the other is wise and pretty chill. Either way, Ares, remember that you can do more than you think, and not just because of God either. He has given is room for a lot of things. We need to use it or loose it. Now let's continue my story. By the way of you interrupt me again I'll punch you in the throat." Gray chuckles shaking me.
I laugh. "Ok, Gray."
