"Tiger?"

Jim froze as he stepped into the apartment. He looked through the sliding door out onto the balcony, and saw Sebastian balanced on the edge. Jim ran to the door, and slammed it open.

"Jim, go back inside."

"Sebastian, come down." Said Jim. He noticed an envelope on the floor with his name on it, and picked it up.

"Read it, please. I don't have much time."

Jim did as Sebastian asked, although a little unwillingly.

Jim,
If I don't jump, they will kill you. This is my Fall.
You're my pressure point. Someone I care about way too much to see get hurt.
I love you. I'm sorry I fucked up this badly
Love,
Your Tiger.

"Tiger, don't do this, I can die, I can fall, you need to live," said Jim desperately,"I need you Tiger. I love you."

Sebastian crouched down and kissed Jim, wiping the tears from his eyes. "I love you too, Jim."

With that, he kissed Jim's forehead and threw himself backwards to the street below.

By the time his body hit the concrete, Jim had already grabbed the gun.
