One breath away. Just one more. I took a deep breath as I seen the water glisten 295 ft below me. What do I have left? Nothing. Its time for me to go. Its just how is has to be. I backed up. Far enough to run and far enough to jump. I took a deep breath before making a run for it. Expecting air, I felt two strong rigid arms wrap around me. Horror took over as I tried to fight out of them. "Let me go! I need to leave!" I shouted trying my best to fight my way out. "Let me go! Let me go!" I shouted even louder.

"I can't let you do that. I love you too much to do that." I heard his voice ring in my ear.He was breathing heavily meaning he must've ran to catch up with me. "Please. This is my only chance. I will never ever be able to do this again. Let me do it." I cried tears streaming down my face. My hair blowing in the wind. The ground beneath me is the only chance I have left for this nightmare to be over. "I love you. Don't do this to yourself." He whispered. His voice filled with pure agony. I took a deep breath. I need to be calm in order for him to let me go. Or atleast release me from this unbearable grip.

"I'll calm down. I'll do whatever you want me to do besides live another day on this earth." I said. He stiffened making his hold even tighter. I was face away from him but I can only imagine his face right about now. "Why would you want to do this to yourself? Why now? Why after everything that we have been through?!" He asked. I heard his breath get hitched and his voice started to crack. Only I knew the reason. I wanted to gone. I want everyone to forget I ever existed. "Your life would be so much better without me. How can you love someone like me? Huh? Why is it that you care about me now? Tell me!" I shouted.

"I have always cared about you. I love you because your you. You have never been anybody but you. This world is filled with people but only a few stand out. And your one of them. My life is you and always will be you. Don't do this. Think about us. Think about what we have been through. Think about....me." He finished. The struck a nerve and sent my heart racing. Yes. Him. I felt my heart start to tear up. Those around me that love and care for me. I haven't thought about them. But who cares right? At the end of the day, no one thinks about anyone but themselves right?

He turned me to face him. I couldn't look in his eyes. First, I couldn't see anything with the pool that is leaving my eyes. Second, I can't dare look at his face. He brought this upon me. Well not quite exactly but he doesn't have to know that. If I tell him why I should disappear now, he'll probably lose it. I felt his hand under my chin as he raised my head to look at him.He was cautious of how he held me. He didn't want to let go of his grip anywhere on me that he held. Why can't he just let me go?

"Tell me why your trying to leave all of a sudden?" He asked. A tear rolled down my cheek and I couldn't find my voice looking into his chocolate brown eyes. The eyes that will one day bring justice. If anybody could make criminals talk, it would be him. All he has to do is look at them in the eyes and they will spill everything they have ever held within themselves. But I learned how to control myself. It won't happen with me. He wiped off the tears from face while shaking his head. "No. No. Tell me." He said. I tried to look away but he made me look at him.

I sucked in another breath and held it. Please. I pleaded with my eyes. His jaw clenched staring down at me. I gulped. I didn't know how to tell him. Even if my life depended on it. I can't tell him. My life is going to be gone anyway. There is no use of me here anymore. Those who once held me are now gone. They got what they needed and tossed me to be eaten by the decomposers. I love him. I loe him more than anything and if I stand anymore time being here with him, he will only suffer more. I want to take him out of his misery. I'm the cause of it anyway.

I felt something soft yet moist on my lips. I kissed him back. "Don't go.I need you. Think about me." He said moving my hair out of my face. I blinked at least 15 times before actually looking him in the eyes. There. I knew it. I knew he was crying but I couldn't tell. It was hard to tell. I couldn't focus anymore. The ground beneath was no longer welcoming me. It was now rejecting me. Looking at him, I didn't have the heart to do it.I started to pull away completely but he held on that tight hold from before. "Please...." I begged. I was calm now. But not to the point you'd want to take chances with me.

"Tell me. I know its on your mind. You are fighting the urge to tell me.You can't do this to yourself. I love you. You can't do this to me." He whispered sounding so volunerable all of a sudden. But it wasn't new to me. He always was. I puffed up my cheeks and blew the tears on his cheeks."I love you too." I say. He had his hard look on me. And that was enough to make me crack. "I---I....I have cancer." I stuttered.
