Jenna stood up at the podium.
"He was actually a great man. He was loved. He was happy. He wasn't a freak like everyone said. Tyler was a funny,polite,quiet being. He knew how to make me happy. He tried his best to keep us both happy. I wish Tyler everything. I miss you. "
Josh stood up and clapped. No one else was at the funeral. Only the people who truly loved him.
"That was great Jenna."
"Thanks Josh." Jenna wiped a tear from her eye.
"I miss him." Josh whispered.
"Wait. Wouldn't you be where Tyler is since you're in his mind?"
Josh sighed.
"Actually, I can control who sees me. And as long as that person stays alive,they can see me."
Jenna looked over at Tyler's casket.
"So..Tyler for-"
"No. He didn't forget about me. He promised he wouldn't. And I'm sure he kept it."
Jenna smiled weakly at Josh.
"I'm just happy he knew people cared about him."
"We were the only ones,Jen."
"I know. And I'm happy about that. He needed us. And we needed him. "
"I still..."
"Hm?"
"Jenna can I tell you something I never told anyone? Especially Tyler?"
"Sure."
"I fell in love with Tyler. He was everything. I remember telling him I loved him and what ever happens I still will. And I still do.
Gone or not. "
"I guess we're both widows,huh?"
Josh slightly laughed and looked at Tyler.
"Yeah."
Then an humanly image appears next to Tyler's casket.
"Woah. That's me." He said,pointing at the body.
"Yes it is." Josh says.
"Can...can Jenna see and hear me?"
"Go check for yourself."
Tyler walks over to his whimpering wife.
"Jen?"
Jenna looks up.
"Oh my god. You're alive!"
"Actually,I'm not."
"What?"
"Since you can imagine me,I can talk and see you. I'm basically your angel,Hun."
"Tyler...what about Josh?"
"He's here too."
Josh walks over and smiles.
"We can be whole again."
"No,Tyler. You're both dead. And-"
"I'm not telling you to go kill yourself to be with us like this. I'm saying since you can imagine us,we can stick together."
"I love you. Both of you."
"Jenna I want you to remember one thing."
"Yes?"

"Stay Alive."
