~Austin's Pov~

Austin: It should've been me Alex...

Alex: Austin, no...

Austin: Alex, you don't understand...

Alex: I do... Trust me...

Austin: I'd give my life him Alex... We've been friends through and through... Longer than we met you... No offense...

Alex: None taken Austin...

Austin: It's just... He doesn't deserve this... For all his life, he's been rejected and took some hard hits in his life...

Alex: I understand....

Austin: I've been bad sometimes... He's just been all good...

Shantae: Don't beat yourself up...

Alex: She even has good advice...

Shantae: HEY!

Alex: I said it as a compliment...

Austin: Alex... I'm afraid...

Alex: Afraid of losing a friend?

Austin: A best mate for life...

Alex: I understand...

Austin: I know...

Alex: Hey, you'll be fine...

Austin: I don't think I will be...

Alex: It'll just take time...

Austin: I don't know...

Alex: Trust me... It will...

Austin: I do trust you... After what happened with you...

Alex: Yeah... I learned that they will always be with me... Heart and mind Austin...

Austin: But this is different Alex... I'm losing a friend who didn't deserve to take the hit... To take the risk... *Putting his hands against his head*

Alex: *Obviously sensing that Austin was feeling afraid... Alone, and clueless... He patted his back* Austin...

Austin: What, Alex?

Alex: We're always gonna have times like this... But we gotta remember that no matter how prepared you think you are for the death of a loved one, it still comes as a shock, and it still hurts very deeply Austin...

Austin: *Lifting his head up, he looked up to Alex*

Alex: So when you lose a person you love so much, surviving the loss is difficult... But you won't suffer it alone...

Austin: I don't know how that's suppose to help me Alex... But I feel a bit better...

Alex: I tried...

Austin: I know, and I thank you for that...

Alex: You're welcome Austin...

Austin: Just remember... I'm the wisest out of this whole group...

Alex: You wish...

Austin: *Punching Alex's arm*

Alex: OW!!!
