55. In the End

He told me I was worthless, a waste of space, that nobody loves me. He said he felt bad for me but not enough to care what happens to me. He said the only thing felt to do is end it....end it all. In that moment I knew Victor was right.

In the end...you think of the beginning. That's what they like to say in a summary. When you have truly reached the end nothing is a short every second seems like a minute and every minute seems like a hour. The only time you think of the beginning is when you question what got you to the end. At least that's what I'm doing.

No one loves me. My uncles dead, my moms dead, my sister might as well be dead, and my dad is a homicidal maniac. Calum is the most painful. He tricked me but I still love him. That's why I'm here so I don't have to love.

I took a deep breath and stepped on the ledge of the rooftop of the same apartment I share so many memories on. I close my eyes but I don't jump.

"Just jump" I harshly whispered to myself. Take two...but I decided not to shut my eyes. Just as I took one foot of the ledge something stopped me.

"Stop" An all too familiar voice commanded from behind me. I spun my head around to see Calum standing before me. I shook it off and turned back towards the ledge.

"You can't save me anymore Calum." I said in hopes he would leave. There was a long pause so I took that as a yes.

"Then you better make some room on that ledge." His words startled me. He walked over and took a step onto the ledge with me as he held my hand. My mouth grew a gape.

"Kylie I love you and I'm standing on the ledge of a apartment building to prove it to you. I know this could never make up for what I have done but I'm praying its a start. At first I thought I should stop you...because when you die I want it to be next to me. Then there you were denying me to come down and I thought 'at least this way I still can'. I know its cheesy and wierd and for you probobly creepy but it couldnt sound more right to me. If you don't feel the same I'll still love you. Just like I loved you yesterday and just like I'll love you tomorrow." He declared to me. And for once in my life I wasn't crying it was like the tears just stopped. The funny thing was that nothing he said was weird nor creepy. Actually it was everything I needed to hear.

"What about 20 years from now?" I asked him with curiosity.

"I don't know....I'm not claiming to tell the future but I know whatever comes in the next 20 years we can figure it out together."

"I don't believe in love...." I paused for a while as he stared at me with glossy eyes.

"Not how people claim it to be. But I do believe in you and me and that I would do absoulutely anything for you. When I thought I lost you, I lost any will I had to live. I don't know when but all of a sudden its like you became my whole world. So when I say I love you I mean it with all my heart and soul. I believe, standing here on the legde of this building, that we are a epic love.

"I love you Calum Thomas Hood." I said and finally I saw Calums infamous huge grin that just lights up my world.
