A Little Fall Of Rain

I find myself lying on the road. I look up and see the rain clouds move closer and closer. I am bleeding in several different places and I can't feel my legs, but it's not me I care about right now.

"Sawyer," I wheeze "I'm sorry."

He's still in the car. He sees me and smashes the door open.

"Joey!" He rushes over to me and tries to help me up

"I don't think I can stand anymore"

"Joey, you're hurt, you need some help!" He opens my jacket "Oh God, it's everywhere!"

He starts to tear up and reaches out a hand to my bloody chest.

"Don't you fret," I stop his hand, I don't want him to worry. "I don't feel any pain," I lie, it hurts so much. I feel the rain drops fall heavily on me. "A little fall of rain can hardly hurt me now. You're here," He smiles, but tears fall down his face. "That's all I need to know and you will keep me safe and you will keep me close," He moves so that my head is resting against his chest and he has his arms wrapped around me. "And rain will make the flowers grow."

"But you will live Joey, dear God above," For a second it sounds like he is trying to convince himself, as well as me. "If I could close your wounds with words of love."

"Just hold me now and let it be," I don't want to think about my injuries. "Shelter me, comfort me." I plead, I just want to feel him and he hugs me tighter.

"You will live," I don't think that's true. "A hundred years, if I could show you how. I won't desert you now." His care warms me inside.

"The rain can't hurt me now, this rain will wash away what's past and you will keep me safe and you will keep me close. I'll sleep in your embrace at last" I hug his arm that's wrapped around me. "The rain that brings you here is heaven blessed. The skis begin to clear," I see an end of the rain clouds, but I probably won't make it long enough to see the Sun again. "And I'm at rest a breath away from where you are, I've come home from so far." Sawyer is my home.

I feel my vision getting blurry and I feel tired and weak. It's my time, but before I go I feel the need to say "So don't you fret, I don't feel any pain, a little fall of rain can hardly hurt me now." I feel a sharp, painful sting in my chest "Ah!" I yell in pain.

"Shhh, it's okay," Sawyer says stroking my arm and rocking me, "I'm here."

"That's all I need to know," I smile. "And you will keep me safe and you will keep me close, till I am sleeping. And rain..."

"And rain..." He repeats.

"Will make the flowers..." So tired, so weak.

"Will make the flowers..."

I look at him and can think of a million things I want to say, but there's not enough time. I kiss him on the lips softly and pull away, but still looking at him. "I love you Sawyer." And I fall onto his chest.

Sawyer's POV

"Joey?" I shake him, but he doesn't respond. "Joey?!" I shake him harder, still nothing. "NO! Joseph Michael Graceffa you will not die on me! I love you! Joey, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART! JOEY! Joey! Joey?" I get quieter and quieter as I sob more and more. I slowly come to terms with it. He's dead. I love him and he's dead. But the worst part is, I never told him and he will never know. I kiss him on the lips and hug him. He's dead.

"Grow."
