Happily Ever After?- Diza

Chapter 18: You Promised Me

Liam's P.O.V

Thump.

Thump.

Thump.

The only sound I could hear as I looked at her pale, lifeless face. My heart seemed to silence every other sound in the room. I couldn't hear anything but the blood running through my veins and the beat of my heart.

I loved this girl. I still love her. I don't want to live the rest of my life without her. I just, can't. I remember everything vividly even though it all happened a week ago.

We broke open Kaitlyn's door only to see her laying on the ground in a pool of blood. She had a slit across her stomach and her hand held the necklace I gave her. It was heartbreaking to see her. Kayden and I rushed to her, called 911, then called her parents. The same words went around my head as I remembered what David said in the hospital waiting room. My princess' castle broke down, bringing her with it.

How could someone so bubbly and adorable kill themselves? She was perfect to me. She always has been and always will be.

Me thinking about what happened got interrupted when they called my name to talk. I stood up from the seat I previously sat in and walked to the front. Tears were on David's, Liza's, Kayden's, Nathan's, and my face as I stood there. I cleared my throat and looked over at Kaitlyn before turning my attention to everyone else.

LM-"Kaitlyn, KT, Katie, Kait. Those were only some of the many nicknames we all gave her. To her dad, she was princess. To her mom, she was Harmony, which was her middle name. To her brothers, she was KT. What was she to me you ask? She was my Kait. She was my favorite person to ever see. She was my favorite person to talk to. She was my favorite person in my life. She meant everything to me. She was my world."

I paused as my voice cracked at the end. Tears started to stream down my face as I thought about her.

LM-"Her smile would light up the darkest room. Her eyes were so much like her mother's, a beautiful chocolate brown. To me, she was perfect. She didn't care what people thought because of growing up on YouTube. I still remember the days I would come home from school and go straight to my iPad. I was the twins best friend and saw them everyday, but I that wasn't enough for me. I would open any video with them in it, and just watch it. I would watch how Kaitlyn was be upset from saying the same thing as her brother. How she always knew what to say. How she could make any depressed kid like me, happy. Now without her?"

I paused again taking a deep breath. My voice once again cracked as the tears were constantly streaming down my face like the other 4 members of her family.

LM-"I will never be happy again. I'm scared I might forget her. Like she will slowly disappear from my mind like she did my life."

More tears fell as I looked at her.

LM-"Kaitlyn, you promised me. You promised you wouldn't leave this world without me. That you wouldn't go 6 feet underground alone. That you wouldn't l-leave me. You promised me."

I walked over to the casket she was in and stared at her beautiful face. I gripped onto the side of it and let every tear fall. David came up to me and pulled me into a hug. I cried harder onto his shoulder.

LM-"I was supposed marry her! I wanted to marry her."

D-"I know you did. I know."

We stood there crying as they played a song she loved to listen to because she thought she would never die young.

I hate it when she is wrong because it ends badly. Not only for her, but for me as well and everyone else.

I pulled away and looked at Kaitlyn one last time and kissed her forehead before they closed the casket. The necklace was still around her neck. Her makeup was done, her hair was fixed, and she had a white dress on that matched her white painted nails. She looked beautiful, but this isn't the place I wanted to call her beautiful.

LM-"I love you Kaitlyn. You may have never heard me say it, but I did."

I watched as they carried the casket away and out of the room. I watched as they took the girl that never knew I loved her away. I watched as they carried her away and into the hearse. People started to load into their cars like me as it started to drive down the road. I got into my car and followed everyone else.

We arrived at the cemetery and I parked. I looked to my left at the passenger side of the car at the glove compartment. I opened it up and grabbed the gun. I tucked it into my waistband then stepped out of the car. I walked where everyone else was, which was around the casket.

If I was going to do it, I need to do it now. After them talking and preying, I walked over to the fence that looked over the field. The field was covered in purple flowers. Kaitlyn loved purple flowers. I reached over the fence to grab one, but instead ended up grabbing a bunch. I walked back over to her and placed the bouquet of flowers on the top. Everyone had stopped to watch what I was doing. I looked for another minute then walked back to the field.

I pulled out the gun from my waistband and put it at my temple. Tears fell from eyes as I heard David, Liza, and Kayden yelling at me not to do it. I loaded the gun and pulled the trigger as it was against my head.

And everything went black.
