I knew what I had to do. It was the best for both of us. It had been a few years since the scare with Mark, and a lot had happened since then. We had graduated high school, and now we shared an apartment while I went to college, and he worked at McDonald's. Our moms had both died in a freak accident, so we didn't have anyone family wise. It was the two of us. Ron had gone off to fight, and Scott had gotten into hot water with the wrong people, and got killed. You'd think in small towns that kind of thing wouldn't happen, but it does, sadly.
I knew what I had to do. It was this or living in, pointlessly. I took one last glance at the bottle, arsenic. It was now or never. I don't think he even noticed it in his drink. He didn't, and now he's on the ground, dying.
Now that the light has left his eyes, I'll do the same. I'll join hi-oh, who the hell am I kidding, we're not! We'll never see each other again! We'll both go where we think we deserve, and I know my afterlife won't be with him. I found myself singing.
"So save, today, the secrets that you prayed for, and wait, 'cause we deserve it so much more. So save the secrets that you prayed for, awake, I'll see you on the other side..." With that last mournful song, I drank the arsenic, passing into Death's arms.
