Mitch's P.O.V
I hugged Jerome as he sat there in my arms sobbing. We had lost everything. Our friends dispersed. Adam was dead. Ty was in an emotional breakdown. All we had was each other. He looked up at me with tears in his eyes. My chocolate eyes gazed into his as I appeared unmoved.
"Mitch. You don't have to be strong all the time. You can cry sometimes." He looked at me and I cracked. Everything hit me in a huge wave of emotions. Him, caring for me. Ty, dying on the inside. Adam, dead. I started sobbing into his arms as we sat down on the floor. Rain droplets hit the floor slowly but faster as we wept. I didn't want anybody to ask 'Are you okay.' because I finally understood what Ty was saying. I'm not okay. I try to stay strong for everybody. I try to make everybody feel better. But I slipped. I couldn't make myself feel better. "Let's go home, Mitch." Jerome suggested as we got soaked by the rain.
We made it home and got in our pajamas. "Mitch?" Jerome asked. "Yea, Jerome?" I replied. The heat was on, so the room was comfortable, even more comfortable with Jerome in here. "Wanna go for a walk?" I was lazy. "But Jeroommeee! I just got in my pajamas!" I whined. "And it's raining!" I added. "We don't have to change! And I got an umbrella." He held up a purple umbrella. I sighed and chuckled. "Come on!" He whined like a little kid. I followed him out the door after putting my sneakers on. "Now where are we going!?" I asked. "The park." He led the way. I grabbed his hand and kissed his cheek. For some reason it was raining, and I didn't understand why. We had made it to the park together and we sat on a bench. "Mitch, you know I love you so much." He started. "I love you too Jerome." "No, I mean my heart beats for you. I get blushy when you call me yours. I live for you." I blushed as he led me to stand up.
People walked by us, oblivious to the rain and us. "I guess what I'm trying to say is," People looked at him as he knelt down and pulled out a ring. I gasped. I was expecting this, but there's still a very happy feeling inside when someone proposes. "Mitchell Donnell-Ralph Hughes. Will you be my husband?" I smiled so much. "Yes! Always!" I said and a person clapped. "I love you, Mitch." He said. "God, I love you so much, Jerome."
THE END
OKAY ITS THE END
I LOVE YOU ALL
FAREWELL FRIENDS
