ALTERNATE ENDING

**CONTINUES FROM FLO'S LAST LETTER TO LUKE BEFORE HE REPLIES TO HER**

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT THE ACTUAL ENDING, IT IS JUST AN ALTERNATIVE ENDING TO LETTERS TO LUKE. IT IS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF FLO DIDN'T DIE WHEN SHE TOOK THOSE PILLS.

Dear Flo,

Baby, you've been in the hospital for a month now, and I've been a complete mess, so have the boys. The day I came back, you took those damn pills, you were going to kill yourself - fuck, Flo, did you know you actually did die? 

Three times. 

I watched them bring you back the first time you died. I thought I actually fucking lost you. You died right in front of me. Do you have any idea how that feels? It sucks. It really sucks. It felt like the air in my lungs was taken away from me violently, and it felt like my throat was being held down by a million tonnes of weight. It was painful. I couldn't even cry properly, the tears wouldn't come and it was just loud, painful dry heaves coming out of my mouth. 

Ashton and Michael disappeared, and Cal stayed with me. I can understand why they disappeared, too, considering Michael was the one that found you... and Ash, well, you'll have to find out yourself. 

Some good news, though, the doctors say you'll be waking up soon. You know they had to put you into an induced coma, because you had some sort of brain swelling, they said your body would repair itself.

You're doing so well. Your hand moved the other day, the boys and I, we all cried like little babies. So did your parents. 

Your parents have been visiting every single day, same with the boys. I haven't left your bedside in a long time, only for the toilet and shower. I can't leave you, not when this is all my fault.

If I didn't leave, if I had of only manned up and faced you like I should have, you wouldn't be in a coma. 

I just want to see your eyes again, I've missed your eyes, so full of life and mischief. And your voice, softly calling my name. 

I just miss you entirely. I want to kiss y-------------

"L-Luke?" A soft voice rasped, gaining the attention of the boy who was writing on a piece of paper next to his love's bedside. 

"Flo?" He said, bewildered, before tears cascaded down his face.

Flo nodded, smiling wobbly, though tears were gathered in her eyes. Neither of the two said anything as they stared at each other for some time. Luke finally snapped out of his trance and launched himself at the one he loves immensely. 

"I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you," Luke kept repeating over and over again whilst he sobbed into Flo's shoulder.

"I love you too, I love you too," Flo whispered, clinging onto the boy who ruined her, but who also happened to be the boy she loves too much to ever let go of again.
