TW: Mentions of suicide and death

Rich's POV

I stared at my bright orange wall, the color dimmed by the lack of light.

No matter how many times I tossed and turned and counted sheep, I couldn't fall asleep.

Just think about Jake. That always works.

I felt myself smile as I thought about our future together.

Jake kneeled down on one knee.

"Richard Goranski, will you give me the pleasure of being the hus to your band?" He asked as he popped out a small black box. Inside, there was a silver ring.

"Yeth you dork!" I shouted as I wrapped my arms around him. Jake stood up, with me in his arms, and swung me around.

"I love you Rich." He whispered as he pressed our foreheads together.

"I love you too."

I curled up in my bed and wiped away my tears.

"Hey Jake?" I called down the hallway.

"Yes?" He answered as he poked his head out of one of the rooms.

"I want to have kidth."

Our apartment was silent, except for the sound of Jake walking over to me.

"You what?" Jake questioned as he gently grabbed my shoulders. I stared at the ground and mumbled,

"I want to have kidth. You know. Adopt."

He placed his hand under my chin and slowly lifted it up so we were eye to eye.

"I thought you would never ask."

I couldn't hold back the rivers of tears that flowed from my eyes. I made no effort to hold back my sobs and sniffles.

It's not like dad would hear, he was out drinking somewhere in town. All of my siblings were away at college.

And Jake?

Jake had died five years ago in the fire I had set to try and kill myself.

Instead, I killed the only person who cared about me and was left alone.

Through the moonlight streaming through my window, I could see my scars. Most of them were from the burns, but others were from cutting.

Life without Jake had been hell.

While I was still in high school I distanced myself from my friends. And then, when everyone was leaving for college, I stayed back.

I had no will to live anymore.

I had an on and off job to keep myself busy.

But really, I was just waiting for the time I could try to kill myself again.

And this time I would succeed.

I would finally see Jake again.

Hahahah I'm tired again

I didn't get a lot of sleep last night and I had a shitload of sugar today

Everyone is asleep except for me and I can't go onto movie star planet because I have to turn on Adobe flash and I'm not doing that

Julia, I hope it was okay

Did you know dolphins have penises? They look weird

Peace out
