Tommy's POV

A few months later

It was in the afternoon. I still hadn't eaten, drunk or slept since Sauli died.

Adam had forced me to go to school, saying that it would be good for me. I talked a little to Adam, but no one else.

I sat up in bed and bit my lip, deep in thought. "Hey Tommy." My thoughts were interrupted by Adam coming into the room.

I gave him a weak smile. "Hey..."

Adam sat on the bed beside me and pulled me close, kissing my head. I snuggled into him and sighed. I secretly wanted to go out with Adam again, but loosing Sauli would hurt forever...

I was ready for another relationship, but I'd always love Sauli...

The tears rolled down my cheeks again just thinking about it. Adam looked down and gently wiped my tears away with his thumb, "it's ok TJ...I'm here..."

I sniffed and snuggled into him more. The one person I had left in the world...

"I'm going out for a while...will you be alright here?" Adam looked at me worriedly. I simply nodded and pulled away from him, lying back down under the duvet.

Adam kissed my forehead before walking towards the door. "I'll see you later..."

"Bye..." I waved at Adam before he smiled and went out.

Adam's POV

I hopped in the car and took out my phone. I had a couple of hours before I needed to be back...

I backed out of the driveway and drove to the nearest bar. I went inside and ordered a large beer.

"Bad day?" A women said beside me. "More like a few months..." I sighed and turned to face her.

She chuckled and nodded. "I've had that before...my name's Lexi." She smiled.

"Adam." I smiled back at her.

Tommy's POV

I sighed and sat up in bed again, grabbing my phone off of the bedside table. Adam had been more than a couple of hours...

I went on Twitter and browsed new posts, my heart stopped when I saw some of Adam's recent ones. He was with a girl...

They were kissing...

I threw my phone across from me on the bed and stood up.

I sighed and shook my head as more tears streamed down my face. I had no one...

I went into the bathroom and shut the door behind me, locking it. I looked at myself in the mirror and glared. I'm so fucking worthless...

No wonder he left me...

I went over to the tub and and started running it. I couldn't do this anymore...

After the tub was almost full, I stopped the taps and started rummaging around in the cabinet. I eventually found a packet of razor blades and took one out.

I placed it beside the sink and went back into the bedroom. I rummaged around in the closet before pulling out one of Sauli's sweatshirts. I pulled mine off and slid his on, smiling slightly at his scent.

I'll be with you soon...

I went back into the bathroom, locking the door again. I looked at myself in the mirror one last time and grabbed the blade before slowly climbing into the tub.

I stared at the wall for a while as tears continued to roll down my face. This was it...I was finally doing it...

Eventually, I sat up and held the blade against my wrist. I took a few deep breaths before pressing the corner against my wrist, then slicing the rest up my arm.

I yelped in pain, my breathing speeding up. I quickly made another slice, yelping once again. I did the same to my other arm before leaning back, sinking further into the water.

I heard the now reddish pink bath water starting to overflow. My breathing was getting slower by the second...

Until my eyes slowly flickered shut, never to be opened again.

"I love you, Adam..." I whispered.

Adam's POV

After I exchanged numbers with Lexi and said goodbye, I hopped in my car and started to drive home. I don't think I was gone for too long, hopefully Tommy was alright...

I eventually pulled into the driveway and went inside. "Tommy, I'm home!" I called. No reply.

Oh well, he must've been asleep...

I checked the time on my phone.

4:05pm

Not too late, but later than the time I said I'd be home at. I dumped my keys on the table and shoved my phone back in my pocket. "Tommy!" I called again, slowly going upstairs.

He didn't reply again. "I'm home!" I didn't give up calling.

I went into his room and turned on the lights. "Tommy!" I sighed. "There's water all over the damn floor!" I tried to open the bathroom door, but discovered that it was locked.

"Seriously, Tommy? I know you're upset and all...but no need to soak the floor and ignore me!" I took a random knife out of the beside drawer and started picking at the lock. "It'd be easier if you just opened up!"

"Tommy, come on mate..." my voice trailed off as the bathroom door finally opened.

Tommy was slouched in the bathtub with his eyes shut. The water was a darkish red, which had spilled all over the floor.

"Oh...oh, no..." my heart started pounding as I tried to go over to Tommy, having to grab the towel rail to stop myself from slipping.

"Oh TJ...you're ok! Come on baby..." I slipped and landed on my knees beside the tub, picking up Tommy's limp body in my arms. "Come on Tommy!" My eyes started to fill with tears.

I couldn't manage to get him out of the tub, so I kept one arm holding him while the other reached into my pocket and grabbed my phone.

I quickly dialled 911 and told them to hurry. "They're gonna be here soon Tommy, just hang on!" I begged as tears streamed down my face.

~~~~~~~~~~~

That was the last I ever saw of Tommy.

He climbed into the bathtub, still in his clothes...

Slit his wrists...

And bled to death...

All alone...

I followed Tommy's advice and entered American Idol, finishing second. I'm now a world famous singer with a beautiful wife, who just so happens to be Lexi, and two precious daughters...April and Serenity.

Even with everything in my life now, not one day passes by when I don't think of Tommy.

It still haunts me, knowing that I could've prevented it...

But at the end of the day, he's still gone...

And there's nothing I can do about it.
