CLAY'S POV:
—
"Clay, wake up!" I'm abruptly awoken by Nick. Annoyance fills me as I had just managed to drift off to sleep, temporarily escaping the thoughts of George.
"It's George, he-" Nick begins, but my annoyance intensifies. I'm desperately trying to move on from him, and everything is just a reminder of his presence.
"I don't care about George, Nick," I say, forcing a smile. It's not entirely true, but I desperately wish it were.
"Clay, listen to me," Nick says, gripping my shoulders. The seriousness carved on his face makes me sit up, bracing myself for the news that will probably shatter my heart once more.
"George got into a car accident, he's in the hospital. We need to be there for him," he says, looking into my eyes, attempting to read the emotions on my face.
The deafening thump of my own heartbeat drowns out the world around me, as if it has stopped to exist. A persistent beeping rings in my ears, and dizziness sets in. My thoughts gravitate towards the hurtful possibility of George's death.
An overwhelming heaviness settles in my chest, burdening me with its weight, while tears well up in my eyes. The intensity of my emotions threatens to overpower me, causing me to break down.
With a surge of adrenaline, I quickly stand up, pushing aside my overwhelming emotions, and hastily fill my backpack with anything within reach. I would swim across the ocean, just to get to him. Despite the deep pain, he caused me and the anger I feel, I can't bear the thought of anything bad happening to him. My love for him stays strong, consuming my entire being.
When I gave him the necklace and said that I will love him forever, I really meant forever.
My love for him knows no end.
