You Left Me

(WARNING: CONTAINS MAJOR FEELS AND SERIOUS SUBJECT)

John's POV

I sit up in bed, but it's different. The only one in bed with me is my cat.. Alex's cat.. I haven't really talked to her in a while. What'd we name her again? Hm.. Oh! I remember! "Hey, Pippa.." I say, gently petting the tabby's fur. Pippa purrs, snuggling into my lap. I smile slightly, but it fades. I look around my room. Why am I here..? How do I get out of here..?

I set Pippa down beside me and stand up. I slowly walk out of my room and into the kitchen. The fridge has sticky notes on it. What does it all say..? I squint my eyes, trying to read the notes. It's like my mind's gone fuzzy. I can't remember much. It's like I'm going crazy.. I finally see what the notes say.

"Don't forget about Swane's Lane."

"Reminder: I love you, Peaches! Never forget that!"

"Pippa's our little kitty!"

One of the sticky notes has a drawing of me, Pippa, and Alex together. I change into a hoodie and jeans. I put my shoes on and leave for the metro. Once I'm on, I glance outside. It's a pretty day. The metro passes by a field of flowers. Forget-Me-Nots. I smile, mumbling, "We always loved those flowers.." The metro stops at the building I work in. I get off the metro and walk inside.

It's a mindless job, and I don't really pay attention when working. During my lunch break, I walk up to the roof. I slowly make my way to the edge. I stop, my feet right on the edge of the roof. I think.. Go back inside..? Or fly..?

I go back inside. I finish working and get back on the metro. I get off at the very next stop. Swane's Lane. I think that was on one of the sticky notes.. I look around. Swane's Lane is where the cemetery is.. I slowly walk through the cemetery until I find a grave with Forget-Me-Nots on it. I stop, falling to my knees.

I remember now..

Alex..

You died a while ago..

But I've been denying it ever since..

You left me behind and moved on..

It was you and me against the world..

Heh.. And Pippa of course..

I notice that tears are rolling down my face. No wonder I can't remember anything. I want to forget. I want to forget everything in this world. Yet, our favorite flowers are Forget-Me-Nots. I can remember.. I've been here many times before. I stare at Alex's grave, tears rolling down my face. I mumble, "Every day I wake up thinking about joining you..."

*The Next Day*

I walk to work, my eyes on the ground. I work and work.. Until my lunch break. I walk back up to the roof and towards the edge. My heart is beating out of my chest. My mask is cracking.. Breaking.. I want to forget.. The world doesn't want a broken person with scars.. The world doesn't want me.. And I don't want them.. I want Alex...

I want to fly...

I take a deep breath.. And jump...

Heeeeello, Everyone! I hope you liked this pretty long chapter! This chapter was inspired by a game that I saw Markiplier play! It's called "You Left Me"! It's definitely a more serious game, but it has some pretty funny parts to it!

Anyways, that's all I have for now! Byyyyye!
