Vegas' POV

Two weeks have passed, but everything at the main family's house is still quiet. I feel like I'm going insane, like an idiot who made the wrong decision.

I shouldn't have let him go.

I shouldn't have let him slip away.

I've had people watching around the main family's house, but there's no sign of him.

"Fuck."

This agony is consuming me, like a part of me is slowly vanishing. I'm scared that at some point, I'll either go mad or die.

Pete,

You've made me feel this way.

I decided to open my computer to search for some information before grabbing my gun and driving away from home. I can't think of any other way. I need to get information about Pete today. I need to know how he's been since I let him go. Is he alright?

He returned to the main family's house, so he should be fine, right?

I drove to my destination, seeing crowds of people standing in front, some walking around. I didn't care about any of them. I heard voices over a microphone, screams, laughter, the sounds of many people I didn't care about. I found a spot to stand, not too close but not too far, focusing only on the person on stage who was smiling.

A fake smile.

A smile I know well.

Then the noise around me quieted down, accompanied by the sound of music starting.

'Every story that passes, every night that goes by,
repeating endlessly, without meaning.
When you came, I began to understand,
the time that passed was to wait for you, wasn't it?'

A song I didn't intend to listen to, but it reached my ears anyway. A song that brought back images of the day I captured Pete into my mind. I remember how I felt that day. The plan was ruined, everything was a failure, but I caught the cause of it all. Anger, fury, the emotions that have been familiar to me my whole life.

But when I met Pete,

'If tonight, we keep looking into each other's eyes,
If today, we keep holding hands,
If the whole world were to collapse, it wouldn't matter,
Just you, just having you, no matter what,
In a world without stars, the two of us will move forward,
No matter how long, hold me tonight, it will be just us,
Why Don't You Stay?'
