Meghan's POV

"Ok. Thank you everyone for your efforts. Nurse can you note this down... Justin Trainor... time of death... 21:47... heart stopped and we were unable to restart it..." Right there at that moment my world came crashing down. I couldn't see anything else but Justin's lifeless body, the doctor and the nurse writing these horrid words... I started screaming, yelling for them to hook him back up to the machines. That they can't give up. He's not dead, he can't. They did nothing. I ran to them
Hitting them, crying, begging for them not give up. I felt someone yank me back and hold my arms. I looked round and saw Charlie standing there. Silent tears streaming down his face.

"He's gone Meghan. He's gone." Charlie whispered.

I screamed and buried my head into his chest and carried on bawling, my cries muffled by his T-Shirt.

"I don't want him to go Char. I don't want him to go."

"He's in a better place now."

"HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT!?!?! HOW DO YOU KNOW HE'S IN A BETTER PLACE?!?! HAVE YOU BEEN THERE?!?!?!" I wasn't mad at him. I was mad at fate. Fate made the decision between life and death. Fate got him hit by that car. Fate made us get into an argument. Fate killed him. Fate said no to life. No to happiness. Fate is at fault.

"I'm sorry Char. I just don't know what to do. My baby brother is... dead." It keeps replaying in my mind. Like some type of sick music. Dead. Your brother is dead. I buried my head into his and he held me tighter then ever before. He was holding me liken he was gonna lose me.

"Ms. Trainor. You can go and say some final words to your brother before they take him away if you would like." I nodded keeping my head down. I gripped Charlie's hand and walked into the room. The plastic chair by his bed was set out for me to sit on. Not wanting to look at his face I timidly sat down fiddling with my rings. My eyes moved slightly up and I saw his hand. Ghostly white almost unnatural. Laying there limp. Begging for someone to hold it and envelope it in warm. Slowly I stretched my quivering hand towards the bed. My fingers made contact with his and I gasped. They were so cold... so lifeless. I reached my other hand out and cupped his hands in mine.

"I... I don't know what to say Justin. My baby brother... my rock." My voice cracked and I felt a comforting hand grip my shoulder. I looked back and saw Charlie give me a sad smile a a reassuring nod.

"My life would've never been the same without you. The day mum brought you home I swore to protect you... and... I failed." By this point I'm bawling.

"When I was crying and sad about whatever drama was going on in my life, you would come into my room and talk to me. By the end of our conversation if I was still crying it would be because I was crying from laughter. And... and I know that even though your gone..." I whispered the word gone.

"I know that you will always be there to cheer me up and protect me. You'll be by my side forever. I'll never forget you! Just remember that! I'll remember our times together and I'll laugh. I'll cry. And I'll remember the love we had for each other. My baby bro. J. I love you for eternity and beyond..."

"Ma'am. Your time is up."
