Uh, hey. This update is going to be tough for me to write, but you wanted it, so here we go.

Mitch's P.O.V.

I wake up and my arm has one spot that feels like something is constantly stinging it. I roll over and look at the clock on my desk. It reads 4:23 pm. I groan and roll over. Why was I asleep for so long?

I picked up a note that was laying on my desk. The handwriting is messy, showing that someone was in a hurry when they made it.

-the note-

Uh hey. When u got here around ten today, you were out like a light. I put some extra groceries and stuff in the fridge/cabinets.

Love,

Luke

-note ends-

At first, I got my hopes up and thought it was all a dream, but then I realized Luke wrote the note. I crumble it up and throw it into my trash can.

After a while, I decide to get up and get dressed. I stumble into the living room and from there I walk out on the deck.

I lean against the wooden railing and close my eyes. I feel the warm breeze against me. It's almost like its whispering to me. It almost sounds like Jerome....

Why did he have to die...?

Jerome's P.O.V.

After seeing Mitch's limp body being dragged away from me, I went crazy. I screamed as loud as my current state would allow me. I cried and clawed at the bars. I just wanted him to know that I was okay. I need him to know.

Eventually, I have up on everything. Maybe it's best if Mitch just thinks I'm dead. He will move on and soon I may actually be gone. Forever.

Luke walks in and stares at where I'm sitting and leaning against the wall. He smirks.

"You're helpless, Jerome. Just tell yourself that Mitch is convinced your dead and let your body shut down. Make him truly convinced. " Luke said, plopping down in the chair across the room.

I ignored him. But he does have a point with the whole, "body shut down". It would probably be better like that. I don't want him to know I'm alive because then he will look for me. Once again, he will find a way to move on.

But the again, he told me, "forever and always." He wasn't kidding with all of the "I love you"s. He was serious. I just wish everything could be back to normal. Back to the happy days, and by happy days I mean wen we first met...

I love you, Mitch. Just remember that. Remember that you're the Forever to my Always...

This took longer than I thought to write because of the line, "Why does he have to be dead." kind if relates to my situation and I broke down again.

Any way, vote, comment and stuff like that...
