(Jay's POV)

        I never realized how amazing taking a risk was until I risked it all for Nathan. Kissing him, loving him, going after him. It was all amazing. I will  never regret a love like the one I had with Nathan. But it was messy and toxic. I threw my heart on the line. And even worse, I broke his heart while taking these silly  risks. It was just one night, nothing could possibly go wrong. If only that were true, but its law. After a long period of peace and joy comes destruction and chaos. I could have saved him, I know I could've. I was right there. Authorities and doctors from all over say this was something that just culdn't be stopped. They only said that to ease my mind. I look down at Nathan one more time, then they take me away. I should go to a prison, for killing Nathan, but instead they take me to a special prison. Its worse, much worse. But I deserve much worse than this hell. I'm in the mental hospital for Psychotic outbursts and PTSD.  They give me bland food to eat and I wear one giant onesie like outfit. They usually put foam ball things over my hands on my bad days because they don't want me to hurt myself. Who cares, I deserve to die. I just hope that one day I'll wake up from this twisted dream and find my husband's grave.

(Nathan's POV) 

        It shouldn't have happened, none of it. But it did and now I can't communicate with Jay, I just listen as he goes crazy. Slowly at first, then he just exploded into a psychotic mess. How did this happen? How could so much chaos happen at once. Everything was perfect, we were going to get married and everything. But now we're both fighting for our lives just so we can be with the other. They moved Jay to the mental hospital after three months of him starving himself just so he might see me wake up. I hate myself for not waking up. I tried so hard but... but there's nothing I can do. Day after day, I try to open my eyes but am too tired to complete the simple task. Luckily the doctors acknowledge my hard work and keep me on the life line. Someday I will open my eyes and I'll get up and find Jay. I'll wrap him in my arms until he's okay again. He'll never be fully okay again but he will feel loads better to know I'm alive and well. I'll protect him forever. That's what lovers do. That's what I will do, it's what Jay would do.
