I finish showering and brushing my teeth, I put on Will's red striped shirt, and I put on his favorite dark blue hoodie. The rose...

No, Mike, Boys don't cry.

....

I take a deep breath and walk out of my room.

"Hey Johnathan, wanna visit Will's grave with me, if you don't mind I have a letter and some flowers I want to give him."

Johnathan wipes his tears, dressed up in his casual outfit, "Yeah sure..I'll go with you."

I ran upstairs and grabbed my jacket and the flowers I picked out for Will, they were roses, White roses... Will's favorite.

ɢɪᴠɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴇᴀᴅ ᴀʀᴇ ᴡᴇ ᴍɪᴄʜᴀᴇʟ?

sᴛᴏᴘ. ᴊᴜsᴛ ɢᴏ ᴀᴡᴀʏ

ᴛʜᴀᴛ's ɴᴏᴛ ɢᴏɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ʙᴇ ᴘᴏssɪʙʟᴇ

Johnathan looks at me, "You ready Mike?"

"No." I clear my throat in a fruitytaceous orderly mannered way,  "El you're a dumb whore making babies at Sweet Home Alabama, ok now I'm ready." 😁

El looks at me in shock as we walk away, I start laughing.

Johnathan chuckles as we get in the car
"What was that about-?"

I roll my eyes and play a song. Will's favorite song...

"El had been talking bad about Will for being LGBT and stuff." I put my leg up on the seat and lay near the door.

Johnathan frowns and mouths out wow, "Thats messed up.."

"Yeah, she got mad at me for liking Will which was pretty messed up" I look out the window seeing the beautiful sunset.

Johnathan looks at me shocked, "Wait you liked Will?!"

I shrug "Well yea I kinda always liked him."

Johnathan sighs, "Oh well did you tell him...before he.."

I cut off Johnathan with a sigh.

"No, I didn't get a chance to..." I now fidget with my hands.

Johnathan frowns and drives down a road, "I'm sorry Mike.."

"No I'm sorry, you came back to this kind of news and it's only been what 3 years" I feel horrible

As soon as I finish taking we pull up to the graveyard and I see that headstone ᴡɪʟʟɪᴀᴍ ʙʏᴇʀs It hurts seeing that...

"Well we're here, he's right there.." I feel my throat tighten again and I take a shaky breath.
