I took a break and found myself crying once again.

He said he would never leave, he promised he wouldn't leave. But he tried, was it because of me?

I had to stop and take a break. I decided to go to the hospital. I quickly shoved the letter in my bag and drove to see David.

When I got there his room was silent, it was the same as I had left it the last time.

Silent and empty.

I sat by his bed and grabbed onto his hand.

"They say that people can hear you even when they are in a coma" I spoke with a raspy voice, I hadn't talked since he tried to die. Since that awful night.

"One time, I had a nightmare. I ran into the woods and started being chased by a wolf. David I dreamed that I smashed in its skull, I enjoyed it. David I tried to wake up, but it wasn't a dream."

I paused hoping he'd wake up and yell at me or anything, but he laid in the bed more lifeless than a minute ago.

"David, I found your replies. Ive been reading them, I hope you don't mind."

I dug them out of my bag, I opened the next one to read it. I held his cold near death hand the whole time.

"I need you." I whispered and turned to the next letter.
