Mysta had already told him long before that he wouldn't be able to spend new years with the others, it was disappointing to know but Ike was somewhat happy because he thought Mysta had plans of his owns with maybe some other people, or maybe he just didn't want to and that was fine with Ike!

Oh boy was he not prepared for the emotions he'd be punched with.

A minute and thirty seconds until new years. Everyone at the party was facing towards the huge screen with the time displayed on it. It was pretty crowded so nobody was bothered by the ringing of Ike's phone, he hoped. Taking it out of his pocket, he read the caller's name. 'Mysta', he thought to himself. Maybe he was calling to wish him, maybe to share something from his perspective, who knows? Well certainly not Ike.

Picking up the phone, he yelled a "hello? Hi Mysta!" Into his phone because of the surrounding noise. But the response he got, it was lonely. His voice was cold and empty but somehow he could understand a lot of emotion put into the one word he heard falling from Mysta's mouth through the speaker of his phone. "Ike". That was all he heard, he was concerned about what was wrong obviously, but his worry would quickly be intensified.

"Ike, I wanna say some things, but first happy new year!. I know you'll enjoy this new year. Even without me." Ike felt his voice stuck in his throat. He could hear the smile in Mysta's voice. "I'm sorry, I really am."

30 seconds till new year

"I really appreciate all the boys, and I really didn't expect to love you in such a way as well but.. heh. Guess it was just fate right?

20 seconds

"Thank you for everything. You made my life the best. I could never repay you all. Never. Please be happy."

10 seconds

"You gave me a sense of fulfillment, you made me feel like I really mattered."

5 seconds

"Myst-" he was cut off from the voice at the other end of the phone.

"Thank you, Ike. For everything. I love you."

The next thing ike knew, everyone was cheering, confetti flying around in the air and people were tightly hugging their friends, cherishing the few starting moments of a new year. But Ike was on the ground, tears were streaming down his cheeks. His phone screen displayed the words "call ended"but Ike wasn't focused on that. His friends immediately rushed to his side, asking what was wrong but he was weeping so much he couldn't form proper words.

Countless memories flashed through his mind of him and Mysta, those nights where the depressed detective would let down his guard and tell Ike every thing that was bothering him. Only Ike. Only Ike knew of those nights where they both melted into the comfort that was their beloved's arms. He reminisced about those calm days where his detective had fallen asleep on his lap, his shimmering eyes were shut and his chest was rising and falling with every soft breath. That was the night that Ike came to terms with his feelings for Mysta, he knew that there was growing desire in his heart to embrace Mysta forever and tell him everything would be alright while rubbing gentle circles on his back. He wanted to whisper into his ears that there was nothing with them but the tranquility of the captivating night sky, that nobody would judge him when he was letting go of the shackles that were his emotions when he was lessening the strain on his heart with Ike.

He knew, one day he wanted to confess every ounce of adoration and love he had been neglecting all this time. He promised himself, he would declare his love for Mysta to the whole world if he had to. Yet, it seems god wasn't on their side. Alas, he finally had a reason to let himself finally be set free.

"Thank you, Mysta. Truly. You were the one that saved me from this shithole I call life. You are and always will be my savior" he whispered into a locket with an adorable picture of his darling inside.

He remembered when he and his dearest used to stargaze on his rooftop. Ike was glad to know that this place which bought both of them incredible joy, this is where he would spend his final moments.
