"Tell you what's going on? Really? That's what you want me to do? Yeah, emotion talk isn't my thing." I said.

"That's because you always shut out your emotions. Especially when it comes to me." Eddie said.

I leaned against the wall and moved my hair out of my face, tucking it behind my ears. Eddie was right, I did shut out my emotions. Especially when it came to him.

"Please, just, tell me." Eddie said before getting up.

"It's too damn hard, Eds." I said.

"You know, there's a joke I could make." Eddie said.

"Fucking, damn it Eddie." I said.

"Don't shut me out. We don't know how much time I might have left. We can't spend it keeping secrets from each other." Eddie said.

"You're seriously pulling the, I could die in less than a month, card? For real?" I asked.

I was a little annoyed that he had pulled that. But to be totally fair, that was well played.

"Yes." Eddie said.

"I like you, Eddie. A lot. Not in just a friend way. That's why this whole thing is so hard for me. Because I'm so fucking scared of losing you, because I love you, and I can't imagine life without you." I said.

"Wow. That's, a lot." Eddie said.

"I know, I know it's a lot. And it's the reason I am so determined to find a way to save you." I said.

"You're exhausting yourself trying." Eddie said.

"I know that. But I will not stop trying until that day comes, or until I find a solution. And I will find a solution. I have to find one." I said.

"I love you too, Y/n." Eddie said.

"Really?" I asked. It was hard for me to believe. Not because I didn't want to believe him, but because I just, didn't think that someone could feel that way about me.

Eddie nodded his head. "Yes, really. I do. And I'm glad I have you. I believe in you. If anyone can find a way to change the future and save me, it's going to be you." He said.
