Never Let Go

Chapter 9: Stay

May 30th

Patrick's POV

I knock on Adam's door to his office. "Come on in!" Adam shouts. I walk in and close the door. "I wanted to tell you that me and Max are going to be leaving tomorrow morning. I just wanted to thank you so much for everything!" I say. "Do you want to leave?" Adam asks, getting up. "What do you mean?" I ask, curiously. "I have two open offices, enough for you and Max to stay. You two can stay with me and Alesa, until you two get your own place," Adam says, smiling. "I... I can't. I have an office to run back in Colorado and I have many YouTuber's there and I just really can't. I'm sorry," I say. "It's okay man. Me and Alesa are having a grill-out and everyone is coming. Would you and Max like to come?" Adam asks, smiling. "That'd be great," I say, leaving the room.

Later That Night In Max's POV

"Hey! I'm glad you two could make it!" Adam says as we walk inside his house. "No problem," Patrick says. "Everyone is out back!" Adam says, walking away. "Heys dirts!" Barney says, appearing behind me. "Hey Barney!" Patrick says, giving him a hug. "Yous guys here for thes parties?" Barney asked. "Yeah," I say. "Follows me. I'lls shows you the ways!" Barney says, walking forward. We make our way to the back to see Corey, Mithzan, Ross, Red, Emily, Alesa, and Adam. "Hey!" Alesa says, hugging me. "Hi Alesa!" I say, smiling. "Where's Baby Mason?" Patrick asks. "Asleep. He's been up all day!" Alesa explains. "What do you guys like? Hamburgers or hot dogs?" Adam asks, standing by a grill. "Hamburger," me and Patrick both said together. I grab Patrick's hand as we walk down the stairs to a deck area where Mithzan, Ross, and Emily sat. Red and Barney played basketball and Corey took pictures of the sun setting over the horizon. I sit down next to Mithzan as Patrick sits next to me. "So I heard you're leaving tomorrow morning!" Mithzan says. "Yeah. We have to get back to the office," Patrick says. "Well you have everybody's number so if you need us, give us a ring," Ross says, smiling. "Yeah, we sure will and it's not like we won't talk to each other anymore because we will be recording with you!" Patrick says. The rest of the night was amazing. We all danced and sang, we all ate together, we all talked and laughed but we all still mourned over Jess' death, but at the end it was an amazing night. Red was an amazing guy who listened and cared. Barney was special, he knew how to make you feel better. Corey was friendly but didn't take peoples shit. Mithzan turned out to be my twin brother and loved Ross to death. Emily is the one you may get the wrong impression of but at the end of the day, she is the one you can go to. Ross was soon to be my brother-in-law and to be honest I was glad, he was a great guy with a great personality. Alesa was Adam's husband and mother of Mason, she was great and caring and if anyone messed with Mason, she would pounce on them in a heartbeat. Jess who is now dead, was a great soul and was innocent. And finally, Adam, he is a great guy to be around, he is the father to Mason and the wife of Alesa.

Max's POV

"5 minutes til boarding for Crestis, Colorado is over," the lady on the intercom says. I look at the entrance of the plane. "Gonna miss you two!" Adam says. I turn around to see everyone. "You too," I say. We all hug as we know that it will be the last time we may see each other. Tears fell off peoples faces as me and Patrick walk forward. I turn around once more and pull out my phone for a picture. They all smile as I put away my phone and grab Patrick's hand. I feel tears trickling down my face as me and Patrick board onto the plane. A few minutes later and we found our seats. "Time to go home!" Patrick says as we sit down. "Yup!" I say, sitting by the window. "You okay?" Patrick asks. I turn and face Patrick. "Yes. I just miss everyone! They were all good people!" I say. Patrick leans towards me and kisses me. The intercom comes on telling us that we should be off the ground and be heading toward Crestis, Colorado any minute. "Patrick?" I ask. "Yes, babe?" Patrick responds. "Do you think everything is going to be back to normal?" I ask. "No. It never will be, but we can try and live in it!" Patrick says. I look out the window to see the plane lifting upwards.

Do you believe in true love or love in first sight? When I was younger I didn't but now I do, thanks to Patrick. I came to Crestis looking for a job, not knowing I was sent there for a purpose, to be with Patrick. Life is very unpredictable and can be a bitch but at the end does it all have a meaning? Ander was a great mystery and was the unpredictable thing to happen in my life. He killed two good people, Holly and Jess but in the end was he the good person?
