His boyfriend was going crazy back in the mindpalace, he couldn't think where he could have gone, he knew the place that the note referenced vaguely, but he couldn't remember where exactly he was supposed to go.

It was their first date, he should remember it. The tree, the grass, the view, the cliff....

The Cliff! That's where he is!

He took off running, hoping he wouldn't be too late. What if he was?

Negative thoughts swirled around his head, not letting him think clearly.

Was he nearly there? Was he too late? Would he really do it? Why didn't he see the problems, the warning sings? Was he a bad boyfriend?

He reached the field leading up to the cliff. Not far now.

~~

He stood at the edge of the cliff, close to stepping off, he knew he wouldn't be stopped, they mustn't care.

That felling hurt, he thought his boyfriend would have shown up by now.

He wanted to end it all, but he wanted to be stopped. He wanted to be shown that he was cared for, and that he meant something.

~~

He reached the edge of the field, and saw his boyfriend, too close to the edge.

"Logan!" He called out.

His boyfriend spun around so fast Virgil was worried something was wrong.

Did he do something wrong?

Before he knew it, he had run over to Logan, and Logan met him half way, both embraced the other in a big hug, both sobbing, happy but sad.

"Why Logan?"

"No one cared, I hurt, I feel so empty, devoid of emotion, I'm a robot"

"No. You aren't. You're loving and kind, happy and fun. You're no robot Logan. Not at all"

Logan sent Virgil a small smile, and kissed him gently, before whispering, "thank you for saving me."

"Always."

Logan knew he meant it, and if he ever felt bad again, he would go to Virgil and let him help.

This is the happier ending to Down and I wasn't going to end it this way, but I thought maybe it would be appreciated.
And I prefer my original ending.
Hope you enjoyed
Take care
