PoV Will
Sadly, living with Jack wasn't what I had expected. He was at work a lot more than I, and he also was really exhausted a lot.

By now I could really tell by his actions and backpains, that he was, in fact, much older than me. But, I loved him!

"Hello my little ladybird.", he said, as he entered the kitchen at 9 pm.

"Hi.", I sighed.

"Are you alright?", he asked, sitting down.

"I'm sorry, it's nothing.", I lied quickly.

"Oh? You know, when Zad lies to me, his finger starts twitching. When Tad lies to me, he looks like a statue.", Jack told me. I swallowed thickly.

"Honey, I can see it in your eyes. You're not alright.", he then sighed.

I looked away.

"My parents died when I was 12. I have had a terrible fear of losing people since then. And lately I've been seeing how old you are. No offense there, I just, I'm scared.", I eventually told him.

I felt tears build up in my eyes.

"I understand. I mean, I am not the youngest, but I still got about at least 20 years. But I can see how that scares you. Come on, let's go to bed and cuddle.", he smiled. I nodded and wiped my eyes.

PoV Jack
William was out with his friends, when Zad came by to get something he forgot.

He sat me down in the kitchen.

"You look horrible, Dad. Did something happen?", he paused, then: "did William leave?"

"William would never leave. I think that's the problem. He   loves me and while I think I love him too, this just isn't good for him. I'm old, Zad, and he's so young. I don't want to steal his youth.", I explained.

Zad nodded.

"I see. Well, why don't you break up then?", he asked.

"I don't want to break his heart. I just want him to be happy!", I explained.

"Dad. Do you want to stay with him until your last breath? Because that is how long he'll stay. I also think he wants kids.", my son told me.

"I'm to old for more children...", I sighed.

"Exactly! Dad, sometimes relationships don't work. That's alright.",

I nodded.

When Will came home, we had an amazing night. He was so in the mood.

How do I break up with someone that I love and adore so much?

A few days went by.

Then I sat him down in my study.

"William, you know I love you, but", I started.

I took a few breaths before continuing:

"I don't think this is working."

"No. No, please don't do this to me. Please don't make me leave...", he sniffed.

"William, this relationship isn't good for you. You deserve a partner that will be with you till the rest of your life! I can't do that.", I tried to get to him.

"But I-", He started.

I cut him short: "my dear, do you really want to spend your youth on someone that's gonna be dead in 20 years?"

"I want to spend it on you..."

"William, don't you want kids? I'm to old for that and once I am dead, you will be to old too.", I sighed.

Will nodded slowly.

Then he stood up.

"I need to call my twin.", he sobbed. I nodded.

"Take your time. "
