Mitch's P.O.V.

----------------

 

He stands across from me in the arena, pleading look spread across his face. He walks forward to the center, where two pocket knives are neatly on a metal table. The boy grabs one, and looks at it. Slowly his eyes connect with mine, his eyes fill with tears.

 

"Mitch I am sorry this happened to you and Jerome. I hope everything will be okay in the end," he says the plunges the knife into his stomach. I run forward to catch his falling body. By the time I get there he is dead, Tony is dead. Foot steps come from behind me, then grab onto my shoulders pulling me up. I leave to arena to live for another day.

 

My first thought as I walk through the doors is if Jerome had made it. I don't know how I could live without him, he is my everything. I am brought into the same glass elevator that takes me up to my living quarters. The doors open and I step out only to hear science. The elevator doors behind me close, and I run off around the corner. When I come around I run into the familiar body of Jerome.

 

"Oh my god Mitch! Are you okay? I... Thought I lost you, when I got back before you I was so worried," Jerome cries as he pulls me to his chest. We just stand there in eachothers embrace, never wanting to let go. Why did this have to happen? When we pull apart, he looks down at me with a smile. “May I have this dance?”

 

I haven’t even realized there was music playing. I know I am not the best dancer, but for Jerome I would do anything. Together we swept the room in a elegant motion, swaying back and forth to the music like it would never end. The man singing, continued to sing and we continued to dance. It feels as if we are infinite, nobody can pull us apart of take us away from each other. Adele came over to us and sadly told us it was time to leave.

 

When we finally go up to the top floor where we are staying, Adele turns to us with tears in her eye.

 

“Boys I am so sorry this has happened to the both of you,” she says tears dripping from her eyes. “You two should’ve gotten a life to be together, I would say you are hope to anybody who knows you. You both have this light inside you that with shine in the darkest of places. Don’t ever let that light run out,” she finishes and comes to hug us. As she wrapped her arms around us I could feel her shaken breathes, and really see the real Adele. When she let go Sky, Ashiah, Xenon, and Legacy walk in from the other room. Some had tears other just looked saddened.

 

“You two are some of the bravest boys I have ever met,” Ashiah says as she walks  over for a hug. Then after that we hug everybody and try to rid them of their sadness.

 

“Well you two tomorrow we have the big interviews,” Adele says wiping the tears from her eyes. “So why don’t we all get some sleep, seems like we haven't been getting a lot.”

“Goodnight everybody,” Jerome says as we walk into our room. Jerome shuts the door, and turns to me.  "Mitch are you okay?"
