Going Home

Julia:

Jonah is taking me to Minnesota so I can see my little brothers grave. We just go there for 2 days and then we come back to LA. Yes, you might be wondering why were you in Portland, my family moved here but I am originally from Minnesota, where I met Jonah. But I recently just moved to LA to start on some music of my own and some acting.

On the plane I sit next to Jonah and I lay my head on his shoulder and he knows everything about this day and why I act like this. So he tries his best to comfort me, like taking me to Minnesota. He grabs my hand and gives it a reassuring squeeze and runs his thumb over it and I slowly let the darkness take over for once.

I was awaken by someone shaking me, I flutter my eyes open and I see Jonah "come on, we are here. My mom is here to pick us up" I smile slightly and we get up and we since we only both had little book bags, we just had them as carry ons. I see Jonah's mom, I run over to her and hug her. "How my sweet 3rd baby girl doing?" She asks still hugging me. I shake my head and she nods, she knows also clearly. Jonah hugs his mom and she drives us to his house.

I don't talk on this day to people that don't know the full story, but Jonah's family does. So I talk to them, but when Jonah is around the band and stuff I don't, it's not that I don't trust them but they just don't know. Jonah's two little sisters Esther and Svea run up to me and hug me "hi girls" I say and they smile at me and run off again to play with Sawyer.

I walk up to the guest room, well sort of mine and I look around and it's the same as I left it the last time I slept over Jonah's house.

I pack my bag, make my bed, and I clean my garbage up. I throw my bag over my shoulder and as I was about to leave this room for quite some time, I look back it and I remember all the great times I had. When Jonah and I had a pillow fight, my first heartbreak, my little brother, and my depression. I smile and I shut the light and I close the door.

I walk down the stairs and I see Jonah standing at the bottom. I run down and hug him "I will be back Jonah. Promise" he smiles at me and nods

End of flashback

I didn't break the promise, I kept it. Anyways, I throw my bag down and I look at the pictures I left behind. One is of Myles,me,Jonah's sisters, and Jonah. We were a big family his mom always told us. We were inseparable.

I walk out of the room and downstairs and Jonah is standing there with his keys

"ready?" I nod and we walk out.

We arrive at the cemetery and we walk over to Myles grave, which is in the section for children. I sit down in front of it and Jonah does the same. It reads

Myles Jacobs
2/13/10 - 6/3/14
He was a little goofball
Amazing little brother
Sweetest boy
"Rest easy baby boy"

Those words are the words I said when they hurried him. I lean my head on Jonah's shoulder and I just look at the grave and I look at the bottom and I see a why don't we dog tag and a baseball. Myles would always love it when Jonah sang and ALWAYS played baseball. He was gonna make it big one day, he just was taken too soon. I take a baseball out of my bag and I lay it next to the other and this one says "I came here 3/1/18." Like the rest but with different years. Myles wasn't the fastest learner. He had issues. He wasn't a very good talked nor walker.

Jonah and I are back at his house and his mom told me to go take a nap because I apparently needed one.

I lay down and I start to feel my eyes become heaven

Dream

Jonah and I were across the street telling Myles to come over and he was smiling at us and laughing. "Come on dude" Jonah says laughing. "Bub!" I yell. He smiles and says "J" we never knew who he was talking to because Jonah and Julia both have J's. He starts walking over and Jonah yells "you can do it Myles" he smiles and starts walking faster. I smile and then all I see is him get him. I scream and I run over to him "no no no!" Jonah comes over and starts calling an ambulance "Buddy come on wake up" Jonah says. I look up at him and he is crying and so am I "he is gonna be fine" Jonah says trying to convince me. "He's not waking up!" I yell and he never did wake up.

I wake up sweating and I sit up quickly and I look around and I see Jonah sitting there "are you okay?" He asks and I shake my head and he runs over and hugs me "it was just a dream" he says. I shake my head "no it wasn't Jonah. It was real. I relived that fucking moment over" I yell into his shirt.

Now you know my story.
