Today was the day... The day I had to watch my best friend get buried I sighed my head was laying on Travis' chest and he was playing with my hair

"Do I have to dress nice? I don't see the point"

I hear him sigh and he kisses my head

T: "yes babe it's to pay your respects"

"It's fucking retarded"

I sigh looking at the clock I had thirty minutes to get ready sighing I stand up and strip out of my PJs and I pull on some black net stockings and a black skater girl styled dress along with Larrys black sweater and I zip it up half way I play with the necklace I got from Larry and sigh to myself putting on Megans necklace as well I haven't told Megan what happened but I'm assuming she knew already I pull on my shoes and put my hair in pigtails then look at Travis

"There"

I put on my mask and sigh to myself Travis grabs my hand he was already in a black suit we walk out of my room my dad was on the couch already in a suit as well and I walk out of the apartment not saying anything I kept my head down

"I wanna walk... The church is right beside the apartment no point in driving"

Travis just nods once we get there I felt my stomach drop and I took in a deep breath my eyes tearing up I walk up the steps and into the church holding tighter onto Travis' hand at the front of the church I see an open casket I let go of Travis' hand and I walk over to it my heart dropping to my stomach when I see larry his long brown hair looked so... Clean and pretty his skin looked flawless I felt tears run down my face and I start to cry I gently move a piece of his hair off his face he looked like he was sleeping...

"Pl...please Larry w...wake up"

I whisper and I step on my toes hugging the casket letting out small sobs suddenly I felt Travis gently pull me away

T: "come on love... We have to sit now"

I nod and when we sit I curled into Travis hiding my hidden face into his neck as I cried I didn't even hear the service... I didn't want to most of the time people just spoke for the living not the dead so I didn't really care what everyone had to say...

I look up when I hear my name be called great it was my turn... I stand up and take a shaky breath walking up to the stand I take the mic

"H...hey I'm sal I was Larrys best friend... We've been friends for 3 years i... I ummmmm..."

I feel myself start to shake and I try to hold back the tears from falling and I look down

"F...fuck you larry! Y...you promised!"

I let out a heartbroken sob

"I...i can't..."

I drop the mic and run out of the church I run to the hill and dropped onto my knees crying as hard as I can my hands shaking as I held one hand by my mouth and my other on my stomach I cried hard barley even breathing my cries made no sound just myself trying to gasp for air it just hit me... Larry's actually gone... I can't go to him when I want to hurt myself... I can't go to him when I just need to laugh... He's gone I cling to Travis when he drops down beside me I cry hard into his chest his arms taking me in a tight embrace

"H...h...hes a...a..actually g..gone... H...hes g...gone"




Travis pov


I watched my broken fragile boyfriend go to the front of the church listening to him talk broke me... I gasp when he runs out I stand up

"I'm sorry everyone"

And with that, I ran out to look for him seeing him on the ground barely breathing with how hard he was crying I drop down beside him quickly when he clings to me I hold him tightly pressing my lips to his head when he spoke I heard nothing but heartbreak making me cry just the slightest I held him close and rocked back and forth humming softly

"Shhhh, my love..."

I pressed my lips to his head and hummed his favourite song

After about 20 minutes sal calms down softly now he was just having anxiety so I turn him to face me

"Babe, what's the first thing you can smell?"

He sniffles then sniffs at the air

Sal: "flowers"

I nod smiling

"What's the first thing you see?"

He looks into my eyes

Sal: "you"

"What's the first thing you can hear?"

He closes his eyes listening

Sal: "annoying crows"

I chuckle softly

"First thing you can touch"

He lifts his hand and touches my cheek

Sal: "perfection"

I blush and roll my eyes knowing he was starting to feel better

"Cute, now what's the first thing you can taste?"

He clicks his tongue

Sal: "blood"

I raise my brow and quickly lift up his mask which causes him to kiss me and I kiss back

Sal: "just kidding"

I roll my eyes and smile at him then put his mask on properly

"Are you feeling better?"

He nods and leans against me again

Sal: "yeah... I just can't wrap my head around that he's actually gone"

I nod and kiss his head

"Let's get you home I'll give a piggyback ride okay?"

He nodded by his eyes I can tell he was smiling I stand up then bend over so he can get on

Once I feel him climb on I hold his legs and make my way down the hill and to his apartment

My poor sal... I wish I could take all his pain away and have it for myself... Just so I can see him happy...

I sigh at my thoughts and rub my thumb on his leg and walk him home.
