My phone rings.
Joshy
I accept the call and put the phone to my ear.
"What do you want idiot?"
"Calm down Mar...I have a serious question to ask you."
His voice was stern and serious...nothing like Josh at all...
"What's wrong Joshy? Who hurt you? I swear to fucking God-" I tease him.
"No...no nothing happened but Mar-" he was cut off by an annoyed honking sound.
"Wait...are you driving?"
"Yes, but-"
"But nothing! Dear God you are a fucking idiot, you know that?!" I scolded him.
Ugh! He drives me insane!
"It's really important!" He whined.
"Then come over!"
"That's what I'm doing! I just need directions!"
"Bull. You know where I live, just hang up!"
"Noooooooooo!" He complains.
Ok folks, Joshy's back!
"Joshua Gary Tandence so help me I will slap you in your face area."
He laughs.
"Yeah, well good luck wi-" he's interrupted, not by honking, but by Earth shattering sound of crunching metal and breaking glass.
I sit in shock for a few seconds.
"Joshy?" I say my voice shaky.
"Joshy, you ok?" He better be or I swear-
"No Mar... I don't think I am."
Tears brim my eyes and my heart is beating against my chest.
"What happened?"
"Some idiot just hit my blind spot...now I have glass in my-" he pauses to groan, "side...and I don't think that I'm gonna live..." he coughs.
"C'mon Joshy...please don't be so dramatic..."
He sighs and a crackling sound comes from the speaker, signaling that he's adjusting himself.
"No...I'm serious...and I need to tell you the thing..."
"Ok...what is it?"
"Mar...I'm gay."
~¤~¤~¤~¤~¤~¤~
He came out to me.
His last dying words...was him saying he was gay.
Not the whole 'I love you' shit in the movies...
I loved him to death.
He was my best friend.
And now he's gone.
