He couldn't stop watching it. The part where she said I love you. The part that he would never be able to hear her say in life.
He cried a lot.
But, then his eyes ran dry, his mind numbed and all he wanted was for her to sweep in like usual with her hair in her face because it's 2am and he's drunk because his girlfriend of the week dumped him.
And waiting for her face to give him the caring, compassionate look that just came natural whenever she saw him.

"I love you." Mackenzie's voice said.
Tyler saw the burning in her eyes. The sincerity and the honest passion. He didn't want to hurt her. He didn't want this to ever happen.
Never expected it to. He was suppose to be the problematic one with the thoughts of suicide and self harm.
But, he made her feel this way.
He thought he was doing the right thing by not being with her. He thought he was saving her heartbreak and tears.
But, he couldn't even save her life.
He was selfish. He was cruel. When all she was concerned about was him and he was concerned about being laid.
"You can change everything." a soft voice said.
Tyler's head whipped around to see his sister. His dead sister.
His eyes widened, his heart beat faster. But, there was absolutely no fear. Only complete comfort.
"Mandy." he said quietly.
She smiled and said "You really fucked this one up Tyler Sky."
He laughed dryly. He was going insane.
"I didn't know. Macky was the closest person in my life and I let her go." Tyler said in a strained voice.
"That's why I'm here." his sister said, her eyes alight.
"What are you talking about Maria?" he said, the face of his forever 18 sister grinning at him.
She wasn't covered in glass and blood. Like when he saw her in the hospital. After the car crash.
"I'm here to take you back. Before Mackenzie commited suicide. 6 months before. You won't remember anything. But, you'll be more observant. And as the 6 months end, if you still didn't make your move, you will remember the suicide." Maria said, grinning as Tyler's eyes grew saucer big.
"I-I get a second chance?" he choked out, happiness filling everything.
She gave him a soft look "Everyone deserves a second chance, Tyler. Everyone who is meant to." she said.
Than darkness filled Tyler's vision, and he fell into a deep sleep. One filled of Mackenzie.
