Tate Langdon X OC/ In Bloom A AHS Murder House Fic)

Goodbye

Me and Tate walked to the beach silently.
"You okay?" he asked, placing his arm around me.
I hadn't even been able to look him in the eye since I found out. I still hadn't told him. I just wanted this one last night to be perfect in our memories.

"I'm fine." I smiled.
"I've missed you... The last couple days." he looked down at me with sad eyes, making my heart shatter into a million pieces.
"I've missed you too." I kissed his cheek.
We walked out onto the beach. The moonlight illuminated the water. I had to say, it really was beautiful.
My head rested on Tate's shoulder as he told me how he used to come here before he died.
"this is nice." I sighed.
He moved slightly and turned my head so that we were facing eachother. He held my cheek for a moment just looking into my cold blue gaze.
"You're the only light I have, Rose." He spoke, breaking the silence.
He pressed his lips up against mine, slowly pushing me back into the sand. I chuckled, kissing him back while falling backwards.

Tate rolled over, looking at the stars. I reached out and held his hand with a smile.
If only this night would never end.

I could see the sun beginning to rise into the distance.
It was time.
"Tate, there's something I need to tell you..." I sighed, sitting up. He followed my action, looking at me intently. "My mother's making me move to New York." I looked down.
He stood up, pacing slightly with stress and agitation. "When?" he asked.
"We'll be gone in the morning..." I sighed.
He looked at me, tears in his eyes.
"But... You said you'd never leave me" He whispered.
I stood up, wiping the tears from his eyes.
"Tate I'm so sorry." I cried "But I guess you and I weren't meant to be. Some day, you'll meet someone who you're meant for. Someone better than me. I know you will."
"I don't want someone better than you. I want you." I cried in return.
"I wish it didn't have to be this way." I sighed.
"You're all I want. You're all I have"
"I love you Tate." tears rolled down my face as I spoke.
I didn't know how to do this.
How could you say goodbye to the one person in the world that you love the most?
"Please don't say goodbye... I hate goodbyes..." He whispered to me.
The sun was coming up and I knew that soon enough, Tate would be back in the house.
I would be alone once more.
"Goodbye, Tate" I whispered, pressing my lips against his.
I closed my eyes as he kissed back for a moment.
When I opened them, he was gone.
I was alone on the beach.
I would never see him again.
But we weren't meant to be.
And I knew he'd find someone else.
It just hurt to know that I'd lost him.
