(Akk Pov)

I suddenly opened my eyes. I gasped, lifting myself off the ground. My vision went from blurry to normal. My head was spinning as air finally went back into my lungs. I looked over to the bar and it was dark. No lights, no people, it was like it was abandoned. I couldn't remember anything and my head hurt so much. I felt like something was trying to get out and speak. I couldn't pin it down.

Soon everything came flooding back. Ray...He was taken by the ambulance. Why??

I shot up and started running. I ran and ran, not knowing where I was going. My mind is filled with Ray and that he is in trouble. Tears flooded out my eyes and I couldn't hold them back. The wind fought against me as I tried to get to Ray. I didn't care how far away I was, I ran. I needed to get to him. He needs me...Please Ray be okay. I begged and prayed hoping he was okay. My body was weaking at the thought of Ray being hurt. But I can't stop now. I just can't. I ran down the dark streets that were covered with rain. Everything was soaked.

I cried just like the world. We share this moment together. I looked up, still running. I looked at the moon. It wasn't shining like it was nights before. I grew worried and I couldn't keep in my emotions. I need to get to Ray. Please...Please...Please. I beg you. I looked down, running. My legs ached and I could barely breathe. I have to keep going, for Ray. No matter if I collapsed I will get back up and continue to run. If I faint I will get up and fight my way to Ray.

"Ray," I sobbed stopping in front of the hospital. My legs were in pain and on fire but I didn't care. I didn't care how long it took to get here. I don't care about the pain. All I need is to get to Ray. It felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest every second.

I slowly made my way in the hospital. For some reason I didn't want to see. I was worried I might see something that I didn't want to see. The tears stopped for now but I had a feeling they were going to come again. I walked and entered the quiet building. Not many staff were around mostly because it was the middle of the night. Once I stepped in my body went numb. I couldn't feel anything...I couldn't feel Ray. I held my breath and continued trying to find him. I held my tears. I saw medics talking about a patient that had a drug poison. I immediately knew it was Ray. I walked through the hospital not knowing where he was. I couldn't feel him...I wondered checking the rooms down a quiet hallway.

Then I heard sobs in the last room of the hallway. I peaked my head inside and my eyes landed on a person crouched over. I took steps inside the room and the unknown person I recognized. It was Ray's father...He was crying and he didn't look good. I turned to the hospital bed and saw a figure under a sheet. The figure was covered by a white sheet. I forgot all about his father at the moment and walked beside the bed. My hand reached out to touch the sheet but I pulled it back. My tears started falling again. My breathing became heavy and it's now becoming hard to breathe.

"Mr. Pakon, you have to leave," a staff member entered the room. I saw him get up and slowly walk out, with tears still falling. The staff flicked off the lights and it was almost pitch black. Then it was only me.

I finally pulled myself together and touched the sheet. I grabbed it and slowly pulled it back. The figure's face became clear. My eyes landed on the figure and tears flooded out. My body went weak and I fell to the floor. I choked out a sob. It was Ray...

"Ray...I'm sorry, I'm sorry," I sobbed out, shaking. I couldn't stop the tears and I only cried. This is the most I ever cried all at once. I just can't handle this anymore. I tried to pick myself up but failed.

My feet were weak, my whole body was. I kept thinking about what Ray was going through as I wasn't next to him. If I only stayed next to him, would he be okay? I sat against the wall and my head was between my knees. I quietly sobbed. My body felt like it was being crushed.

"Ray!" I yelled, entering the room. The lights got turned on. It was Mew and Top. Mew looked like he was crying before this. "I'm so sorry Ray," Mew ran over beside him.

I noticed Top was crying, not being able to look at him. Mew was sobbing and ranting about different things. I heard him say, "If we stayed, this would have never happened." I think the same thing...that I'm the one that caused this. Tears ran down again, trying to get up. I have to do something that will ease them. I know this will live in them forever.

I went on the other side of the bed with Ray, and went to find a notebook. I also noticed a pen beside it and grabbed the two. Mew and Top didn't notice yet but when I put the book on Ray, they did. I grabbed the pen and started writing. Mew gasped and Top looked at the notebook. I have to do this so they can rest. I was crying but I needed to. I went on to write something for them two. Mew nudged Top to read what I said and so he did.

" 'It's okay now, don't worry...he can rest. You two are the best thing that ever happened to Ray. -Akk' "Top looked at his boyfriend. Mew was crying again.

"Akk, I remember that name...It was the name Ray said," Mew spoke softly, turning to Top. "We both thought he was crazy when he spoke about someone named Akk." Top sucked in his breath trying so hard not to cry.

"I guess Akk is real," Top said in the smallest voice can. Mew lowered his head and I hated seeing them hurt too much. They must feel worse because they knew Ray longer than me. After some time of the three of us just crying.

"Akk, are you here?" Mew spoke suddenly and it scared me. "Can I ask you something?" he asked again. I grabbed the pen and wrote a 'yes' on the paper. I heard Top chuckle a little. It was nice to see him not crying anymore. I wondered if I should have said yes but I'm gonna do this for Ray. Mew needs this, Top also needs this.

"Mew," Top called when things fell silent. I heard him trying to gather his breathing.

"Was Ray...happy?" Mew asked and froze. I couldn't tell him that I left him and made him sad. I hesitated and I think Mew got the hint. "I'm sorry to ask that. He wasn't happy," Mew choked out a sob.

I grabbed the notebook and flipped to another paper. I started to write some things on the paper. I wanted to make sure they didn't blame themselves.

" 'The time you two left Ray, he was a bit sad but happy. He was happy and was doing a lot better. He didn't drink, he didn't do anything to hurt himself. But this coming year something I did hurt him. It wasn't your fault. I couldn't take it hurting him and I wanted to fix it. But I was too late, I'm sorry' Mew..." Top read out loud what I said. He was crying at my writing but I was crying too. Mew's tears ran down his face again.

"It's okay... You're okay, you must also be hurting?...Before we leave, I need you to promise us something, okay?" Mew said and I smiled. I wanted to do anything they told me. To repay them for everything.

"You have to find Ray. You have to find him again, no matter how hard it is. He needs you," Top said after getting told from Mew. I quickly wrote I would no matter the cost. I need to find him.

" 'I will find him, no matter what. But before I leave. Thank you for this, Ray helped me out so much and I need to repay him. Talking to the two of you is hard but thank you for listening. I wasn't lying when I said you two are the best thing that ever happened to him.' Thank you, Akk," Mew spoke and thanked me at the end.

I walked over to their side and put a hand on Mew's. His hand was on Ray's hand. I saw him smile at my touch. He whispered a thank you in the air. I smiled before leaving his hand. I wrote one last thing and that was 'goodbye'. I ran out the room and down the hallways.

Thank you....I promise you I will find him and never break him again. Mew and Top rest easy please.
