REECE'S P.O.V
We came back from the pub and headed to Blake's. He only lives a couple of blocks away in an apartment so it's easy to get to.
"I just can't believe she's do something like that," I suddenly said after minutes of silence in the kitchen.
"Seriously, Reece?!? I thought we were on what's-her-name did what now?" George replied. I let out an unenthusiastic laugh.
"It's going to be harder for me to get over it than you think it is. She was my girlfriend for 2 years and she just had to go and ruin it. I thought she was happy. I thought I was enough,"
"You were, Reece. You always were. She's been my best friend since we were 3, and the amount of times she told me she loved you was insane. She wouldn't have changed you for the world. Maybe it was Aaron? Maybe he instigated it and she had no choice but to carry on," Blake said. Some of his comments made me smile. Some made me angry.
"The messages they sent... she seemed pretty interested in each other. It could've been our messages. I need to talk to her. I left her at home without answers. I'm going to find her."
Blake and George nodded and told me to keep my phone on so I could ring them if I needed to. I ran through the streets and rushed to unlock the door to our block of flats. I raced up the stairs and sprinted down the hall to our flat; 239. I unlocked the maroon door and walked to the kitchen.
"Y/n?"
No answer.
I became panicked and checked more rooms.
"Y/n?" I asked in the living room.
Still no response. Where the fuck is she?
I walked to the bedroom. Our bedroom. The white and gold theme still made me smile. It made me think of us in Ikea together, running about and trying out all the mattresses. Not the time, Reece.
There was an envelope on my pillow. I opened it - it was her handwriting and had my name on it.
My dearest Reece,
You've been a light in the dark over the past two years. I'm sorry I dulled your shine. You've provided me so much and this is how I repay you? Well done, y/n. I really fucked it, didn't I?
It hurts me that I hurt you. I cant apologise enough.
No, I won't be going back to Aaron. He's the reason this happened to us, and why what I'm about to do even crossed my mind.
Tell Blake and George that I love them. It'll be hard not seeing them or you anymore. They deserve better friends than me. You deserve a better girlfriend than me.
Let your family know that I love them, also. It breaks me that I won't watch Lexi grow up or see your parents become grandparents.
I'll miss you all.
I'll be in the park if you want me, baby. Bury me in the graveyard here. I'll miss you the most.
All my love,
Y/n

Tears streamed down my face. Not like this.
I grabbed my coat and shoved some stuff in the pockets. I texted George again.
I'm not coming back.
What do you mean? Did
you find y/n??
Yeah.
Read 7:09pm.
In heaven.
I sighed and pressed send.
For y/n, I keep telling myself.
I headed to the park. Where we had our first kiss. She may be gone but she's still cliche as fuck. I headed to our secret place. Nobody ever comes here so she probably went there so nobody found her.
There it was. Her lifeless body. I'm coming for you, baby girl.
I took a pot of pills out of my pocket. I unscrewed the lid, shaking. I heard it's better to do it all at once.
Get it over with, I guess.
I tipped all the pills into my mouth and swallowed. It all happened so fast after that.
I saw nothing, just black, for a moment. Then a flash of white and I was in a strange place.
A feminine figure stood before me, dressed all in white. I walked towards it and caught her lips.
"Reece?!" A familiar voice said.
"I came after you, baby," I began.
"Even in heaven."
