   [Shadow POV]

                          
    I woke up feeling upset. I felt like shit. I didn't want to stay around anymore. I was leaving. Nox lay beside me. "I'm sorry." I whispered, lightly planting a kiss on their head. I walked to my desk, and ripped a sticky note from the stack. I hastily scribbled a note. Hi Nox. I've decided to leave. I don't know when I'll be coming back, or if I'll be coming back. I love you so much. If I leave forever, please don't die. Stay alive. Protect Lemon. I wrote. After snagging a jacket, I crawled out the window, not bothering to grab my phone. "I'm sorry." I muttered again, and closed the window behind me. I found myself headed towards the old train tracks nearby. [I'm 90% sure London doesn't even have over-ground train tracks, but whatever.] 

                          
    I walked up to the tracks and stood on them. I heard a train coming in the distance. I wasn't leaving though. I was going to stand right here. Until the train hit me, or someone stopped me (oOOOo foreshadowing??). "Fuck this. I'm not staying around." I muttered to myself, and sat down on the track. "I'm leaving." I whispered, and crossed my legs.

                          
   [Nox POV]

                          
    I woke up to a dark night and the absence of Shadow laying beside me. Glancing over at the clock, I realize that it's 2:40 PM. "Where's Shadow gone so early?" I question, standing up and turning on the bedside lamp. Shadows phone lie there on the nightstand? Why? I thought to myself, before noticing a sticky note on the desk. I began to grow panicked. Where did she go? I wobbled over to the desk, grabbing it's edge for support as I read the note. It seemed hastily written. Hi Nox. I've decided to leave. I don't know when I'll be coming back, or if I'll be coming back. I love you so much. If I leave forever, please don't die. Stay alive. Protect Lemon. It read. "Oh no, oh no. Oh no, not her too." I whispered, and crawled out the window. I needed to find her, right now. 

                          
   My first thought was to check the train tracks in the old part of town. I sprinted there as fast as I could. I needed to get to her fast. Something was very wrong. She was not okay. I saw a train approaching close, but not before I saw a small figure sitting on the tracks. "Shadow!" I yelled, and scrambled to the tracks. The train was approaching fast. I couldn't save her in time. I knew that. So why did I run over anyway? Why? "There's a reason they fail." Shadow whispered, loud enough for me to hear. I grabbed her tightly. "I'm so sorry. I love-" I didn't finish. I felt a brief moment of pain before blacking out, never to wake again. I felt like I was falling. Falling, falling, falling. With her in my arms.

                          
Fin.

HAHA HOW WAS THAT FOR A PLOT TWIST?! I'M ACTUALLY ABOUT TO CRY RN, BUT I CAN'T BECAUSE I'M IN CLASS. 

                          
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this story, based on Jubilee Line by Wilbur Soot. [:
