PoV Bill
I reached Gleefull manor and let myself in. I found myself to Wills room just on time. I jumped at Stanford, just as he fired his weapon. The bullet hit William, but only a little bit into the leg.

I grabbed for the gun, but didn't reach it on time. Now it was loaded and pointed at me.

Suddenly a shot rang through the air. Stanford sank to the ground. William crawled towards his father.

I turned around and faced Fiddleford McGucket.

"I'm sorry, my friend. ", he sighed.

"He's dead. You killed him!", William sobbed.

"I had to, William. I'm sorry.", McGucket sighed.

We called an ambulance. For Will.

I also told the person he was on the phone with exactly what had happened.

~3 years later~
I smiled at William. My William. He smiled back with teary eyes.

Then he said: "I do."

The last years had been weird and painful, but we got through it together.

We were happy, but what mattered the most was, that this included him being happy.
