Gus's POV
I see you, Hazel Grace. I know you can't see me, but trust me, I'm smiling.
I'm smiling because it's been so long, since you've been this happy.
And it's because of me. You had been spending your days crying because of me.
I can't blame you, though. I would've cried so hard if I would have lost you, but in the end, it would have been a privilege to have my heart broken by you.
Instead, I broke your heart. Which resulted in the small fracturing of my heart. You were afraid of being the grenade, of blowing up. When, in the end, I was your grenade.
I hate it that you grieved so much over me.
I'll always love you, Hazel Grace Lancaster.
And I'm happy for you. For Issac, too.
I can't say it won't make me the tiniest bit jealous to see you smiling and laughing with him. But, I'll also be smiling. If you're happy, then I'm overjoyed. Don't worry about me, though, Hazel Grace.
I'm grand. And I'm still on a roller coaster that only goes up. It pains me to see you cry for me, so please stop crying. Smile, instead.
Know that I'm smiling looking at you and Issac.
How you've helped each other through everything. I love you present tense, Hazel Grace. And I know that you can't hear me. But know that it's ok to love Issac. You should have that chance of a better life. I hope and pray that someday, your cancer will go away. Oh, and thanks for never forgetting me though, but knowing it's ok to let go. I know I'll see you again someday, but for now, just keep on smiling. I love you.
