A/N: Yes, Tyler flatlined in chapter 21...and...lmao (yes, it was on purpose)

JOSH'S POV:

I was sobbing dressed in a black suit over Tyler's coffin.  I threw a single yellow flower on top crying.  

"If you need anyone" I whispered, a tear dropping onto the dirt ground. 

My mom put her arm around my waist, also crying.  And I had started calling Ms. Joseph 'mom'.  She pretty much was my mom.  

Brendon walked over and and handed me a handful of yellow petals.  He had handed everyone a handful.  I threw in the first handful.  

Everyone after me threw in these handfuls of yellow petals.  

Finally, the funeral was over and the coffin was in the ground.  I was the only one left.  Mom walked back over to me and handed me a package.  

"He...uh...he wants you to have this." She said.  

I opened it up and there was a long letter and a single disc.  

I read the letter

Dear Jishwa,

I may be gone but I will never truly be gone.  I will always be protecting you.  I have more power than YOU do! So I mean, I'd say that's pretty frickin sick! I know Cancer was kind of an unfortunate situation.  Yeah, I would have rather not had it.  But that's not what happened.  What happened is that I got cancer.  It was simple.  That's what happened and there is nothing that we could do about it.  You heard the probability.  I didn't.  I did SEE the probability, though.  I know I never did get that Cochlear implant.  So you never heard me sing.  Except that one time but that didn't count since that wasn't ME singing.  So, if mom is fair and gave you the disc, there's my songs.  I think you'll especially love 'Taco Bell Saga'.  And about the song 'Prove Me Wrong', you proved me wrong.  I love you Joshua.  Never forget me.  Never forget my lessons.  Don't die.  Listen to 'Friend, Please'.  I wrote it for you, before I got Cancer.  Anyway, I love you so much. Sorry if the paper is wrinkled, I may or may not be crying a little [lot].  

-Tyler Robert Dun

I smiled that he even signed it with his new last name.  

I walked home and popped the disc in my cd player

"This one is called Friend, Please.  For you, my fren, and for any frens that need it

I feel for you, but when did you believe you were alone?
You say that spiders crawled inside and made themselves a home
Where light once was

Petrified of who you are and who you have become
You will hide from everyone, denying you need someone
To exterminate your bones

Friend, please remove your hands from
Over your eyes for me
I know you want to leave but
Friend, please don't take your life away from me


Living like a ghost you walk by everyone you know
You say that you're fine but you have lost your sway and glow
So I stopped by to let you know

Friend, please remove your hands from
Over your eyes for me
I know you want to leave but
Friend, please don't take your life away from me

Would you let me know your plans tonight?
'Cause I just won't let go 'til we both see the light
And I have nothing else left to say
But I will listen to you all day, yes I will


Friend, please remove your hands from
Over your eyes for me
I know you want to leave but
Friend, please don't take your life away from me"


Tyler has the most beautiful voice I've ever heard.  I cried as I heard that one.  I can't take my life from him if he's gone, though.

"This one is called 'Cancer' on account of the fact that I have Cancer"

Turn away
If you could get me a drink
Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded
Call my aunt Marie
Help her gather all my things
And bury me
In all my favorite colors
My sisters and my brothers, still
I will not kiss you
'Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you
Now turn away
'Cause I'm awful just to see
'Cause all my hair's abandoned all my body
All my agony
Know that I will never marry
Baby I'm just soggy from the chemo
But counting down the days to go
It just ain't living
And I just hope you know
That if you say (if you say)
Good-bye today (good-bye today)
I'd ask you to be true (I'd ask you to be true)
'Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you
'Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you"


It was such an emotional song.  There were so many more after that.  Taco Bell Saga made me laugh, which I guess I needed.  

In Prove Me Wrong, it said

"And I don't believe love's for me, oh
So won't you come around and prove me wrong".

That's what he meant in the letter.  He meant I made him feel love.  

I posted all his songs to YouTube because he deserves to be known.  

I went to my mom's house.  She was crying in her room.  

"I can't do it" She sobbed
"I can't either" I said, voice cracking as a single tear slipped down my cheek

"Well, I really just want to be with Tyler" She said
"Me too...I miss him" I said, crying
"I do too" I sobbed
"I wish this was just a nightmare that I could wake up from" She said
"I would change everything.  This was a damn good lesson of a nightmare" I spoke
