Graysons pov:

I sat in my room pouting, I wish Ethan would see why I couldn't; wouldn't go back.

Earth is so cruel everyone there is miserable and no one cares about one another, that's no way to live.

There's constant protests about equality- people who believe we can evolve and all be happy and equal but that's stupid that's not will never happen.
There's always going to be that one person. The one person who wants the world to suffer.

It made me think of the council men here they are unfair and aren't thinking of the facts; Ethan and I could very well be together, who cares if we can't have children?

We could always have a surrogate with one of our sperms and I highly doubt a village women or any one for that matter would pass the offer to carry a royal child.
We could give the woman money for her kindness and allow her to live in the castle- whatever she wants.

But of course the council doesn't see that- or they are too stubborn to.

I sat up and wiped my eyes not realizing I had allowed tears to fall down my face. I didn't even think I was this frustrated or sad.

Then again I have to make a decision to die in a few months or go to earth and do nothing with my life.

I woke up and rolled onto my side, I saw Ethan was standing beside me making a small smile grow on my face.

I moved the oxygen mask from my mouth and licked my lips "what if you put a pace maker in?" I asked softly my voice slightly cracking from not drinking water

"A pace maker keeps your heart beat regular, your heart is losing muscle mass from being here" Ethan said. He moved closer to me and held my hand "that's why you need to go home" he said placing his hand on top of my head and gently running his fingers through my hair

I shook his hand away and looked away from him, "if  I stayed, would it be painful?" I asked

"As you get to your death it will slowly be harder to breathe and you won't have energy to move or even talk and when you die it will feel like a excruciating heart attack"

I felt a tear run down my face and I looked up to Ethan, I grabbed his free hand and began to break down in tears "I don't want to die Ethan"

Ethan's face went soft and his eyebrows unknotted from each other, he stood up and hugged me "I don't want to lose you Grayson" he said softly rubbing my back

"Could you visit me?" I asked with small sniffles in between each tear

"Of course I could" Ethan said with a sniffle, I looked up to him to see him crying as well

I moved over for Ethan to sit on the bed with me, he sat beside me and I stared into his pink eyes from all the tears and his hand rubbing his eyes constantly

"I love you" I said in between choked sobs my nose runny along with my eyes

"I love you too" Ethan said before hugging me tightly and placing his head on mine

A/n:

Sorry this is short but thought this would be a good ending to the chapter

Also this book is coming to an end it's become a chore to update and I think the upcoming chapter(s) will be a good ending
