Chapter 19

I walk into Jerome's hospital room. I looked at Jerome who was staring at the white wall.

I walk over to the hospital bed and sit down on a chair.

"Why Jimmy?" Jerome asks as he turns to me.

"Why what?" I ask even though I knew what he meant.

"Why did you save me? Why didn't you leave me to die?" Jerome asks me.

I take a deep breath and sigh.

"Because your my friend Jerome. And friends don't let other friends die." I tell Jerome.

"But, I love Mitch and I want to be with him!" Jerome tells me. "And I deserve to die! If it weren't for me Mitch would still be alive!"

"No Jerome! None of this was your fault!" I say. " It never was."

We both stay quiet for a while. And I hear Jerome begin to cry. Jerome grabs the pillow that he was lying on.

"I loved him Jimmy." Jerome say as he throws it across the room.

Jerome and I talk for a little bit more and I finally leave the room and head back to waiting room.

The first person that comes up to me is Angel. Angel looks at me hugs me.

I hug Angel back tightly.

"You know what this reminds me of?" Angel whispers to my ear.

"What?" I ask Angel.

"Remember when you almost you know?" Angel says.

"Almost killed myself." I finish Angels sentence.

"Yeah." Angel says.

I grab Angels hand and hold it.

Angel looks at me and I look into her hazel eyes.

Finally I give Angel a small kiss on her forehead.

"I love you Angel." I tell Angel.

Angel smiles.

"So do I."
