I got 10 votes so here it is, as promised😜

Toby clears his throat and starts talking:
"Hello everyone, I'm Toby, Toby Cavanaugh.
I'm going to tell you guys a little story about Caleb today.
Caleb was my best friend, I met him trough Hanna." He pointed slightly at me.
"So eh, as most of you know, our girlfriends at the time were being tortured by someone, that's not the point of the story, but me and Caleb went to an airport, a little one, to get information about this guy who could lead us to this girl."
Alison awkwardly rubs her head.
"So we got there" toby goes on while smiling slightly as he remembers what happened.
"And there was a guy and he couldn't tell us everything we needed to know, so Caleb just slipped a 100 dollar bill into the guys hand."
Everyone in the room laughed slightly.
"So the guy shows us these documents and I read out loud that the pilots name is 'John Smith' , on which Caleb responds with 'sure it is, and I'm Pocahontas' " Toby laughs, tears burning in his eyes.
Everyone laughs with him.
I laugh too, I whipe a tear away before it can reach my cheek.
"On that day I found out how smart Caleb is and how good we could work together. So do you want to know what happened after?" Toby asked us all while the tears were streaming down his face.
Everyone nodded.
Toby kept smiling at the great memory.
"We figured something out and went back to the airport later that day, we tried to confront the guy with what we found but he kept denying. Caleb jumped over the counter to block the guy. He couldn't go anywhere. Even though I'm saying this myself, we were pretty damn badass."
Everyone laughs again.
"I mean, for Caleb, being badass was just a daily thing, for me, it was something new, something exciting and I'm so glad we have memories like that together." He started crying fully now, I looked behind me and accindently looked straight into mr. rivers' teary eyes. I turn back to Toby, who is currently stood in front of everyone trying to stop crying.
"I'm sorry" he says and walks off the stage.
The lump in my throat is so big, I know that if I go to Toby to comfort him, I'll break down.
A song comes up. I recognize it at it's first sound.
Pull me down.
I look at Spencer, who had chosen the music.
"Thank you" i say to her, my voice breaks.
I didn't think she would choose a song that really has me and Caleb written all over it. We used to listen to this song together all the time.
"For What?" Spencer asks me.
"The song"
"Yeah, Caleb always told me this was his favorite song, it has a special meaning to him I think. He listened to it all the time the last few months." She smiled.
I feel butterflies in my stomic. He listened to our song.
Tears rolling down my face as I listen to the familiar voice of Mikky Ekko, singing the words that I could sing along in my sleep. That's how well I know them.
My eyes get stuck at a photo of Caleb on one of the walls in the room.

I look into his eyes

I look into his eyes.

And for no one to hear it, I whisper:
"This song is our forever"
