The next day I entered the hospital room with my mum and dad. My mum tried to hide the fact that she was crying because Harry had twenty stitches and was in a hospital room. To be honest I was trying not to cry as well. The only brave one was dad. He looked as if he were ready for anything.

We slowly entered Harry's dorm and there he was. In one leg cast and both arms in a cast each. His neck had some support and his eye was covered with a patch. He tried to smile but my mum stopped him.

"Shhhh... My sweet little honeybee... You're going to be okay. Mummy will always be by your side."at that point she burst into tears. But she made out the words I love you. Harry said the words back as mum gave him a kiss on the cheek. Dad talked to him and made Harry laugh but he stopped instantly as  it hurt. Finally my mum and dad decided to let me have some own time with my twin brother.

"Hey Harry."
He smiled and I did our twin action that we used to always do together. He forced a smile and said. "I don't think I'm going to make it."
I got mad at this point. "Harry your going to make it! Do it for me. Do it for mum! Do it for dad! Don't say that! You made it all this way and you can't stop now!"

Harry was kind and forced a grin just for me. "Whatever happens, I will love you Heather. So much. Even more than the universe." This was the first time Harry had ever said this to me. It was so touching. I always had feelings for Harry too. I sniffed and he kept smiling. But at each second it got weaker. "I love you too Harry. Never will stop."

Tears were already rolling down my eyes and I held Harry's hand. His eyes started to fall. "No Harry. Please no!" I sobbed. Mum and dad came in and kneeled next to me. Mum started praying to god that Harry would make it and dad wiped my tears and comforted both of us.

"Don't go Harry! Look I'm sorry for all those fights and when I stole your assignment and threatened to rip it up! Harry please forgive me! I'll be a better twin! Please just make it Harry! Please!"
"You already are Heather. You already are." Then he closed his eyes. Forever. These were the last words he said to me and I lay on his side weeping. Letting all the good memories with him roll down from my eyes onto his sheets.

Mum and dad wept quietly and left. "We'll meet you outside Heather."
I nodded and whispered. 

"I would never. Ever. Replace you. Harry, I will love you till the end."
