We'll Brave This Storm

Chapter 25: Maybe of my heart stops beating it won't hurt this much.

Mason slowly pulled me into another long kiss. He was being extra-extra loving since Samantha left. Probably because he knew I was hurting a lot.

I kissed back, pulling off his shirt as I layed ontop of him.

Did my dad know he was here? No.

Did I care? No.

His warm hands brushing against my skin made me get goosebumps everywhere.

He threw my shirt across the room.

His lips trailed down to my neck.

& before I knew it there were no pieces of clothing on either of us. At all.

You can guess what happened.

I slowly felt my eyes getting heavy as his chest was against my back & his arms were wrapped around me protectively. I felt his steady breathing and I turned around, to see he was fast asleep. I slowly wiggled out of his arms, I took a blanket off from the floor & wrapped it around my bare body & walked over to my closet.

I picked up the black thick photo album that layed on the floor.

I flipped through the pages. All the pictures of me & Nate brought in the waterworks.

I slowly closed it. Placing it back onto the floor.

I made my way into the bathroom, opening a cabinet full of different pills.

I took every pill I could. Every single pill I could.

"Wherever you are Nate, I'm coming." I whispered.

I walked back into my closet, taking 3 sheets of notebook paper from my binder in my book bag & a black sharpie.

I walked back to the bathroom.

Writing something long onto each one.

Then I looked into the mirror.

One last look at myself before death comes knocking on the door.

One last look.

I sighed & turned off the light, going back to the room.

"Love?" I heard Mason whisper as he slightly sat up.

"Yea?" I softly said.

I placed the papers on my nightstand & crawled back into the bed.

Mason hugged me tightly & kissed me as he stared into my eyes & smiled.

I smiled back, "Mason. I love you more than anything in the whole entire planet. Never forget that, okay? Never." I whispered.

He smiled "That times 10. You're the love of my life."

I laughed a little. Kissing him for a long time.

The last kiss we'll ever have.

The last time I'll ever feel his lips against mine.

The last time I'll feel his soft delicate touch.

I stared at Mason, he was the definition of perfect.

I want to remember him like this forever.

I want to smile & know that that boy was once mine.

"We need to get more sleep." he softly said.

I nodded, laying back down as I felt his warm arms wrap around me once again.

Oh how I'll miss that.

Oh how I'll miss my Mason.
