The room is silent, my parents are coming over much later in the evening. Cam stands near the table located nearest the door and I just stare at the walls. Why are we growing apart at the moment we need each other the most? Even though I don't want to, I am crying.

I'm crying because this is all happening far to quickly and I can't do anything to stop it. I'm on a rollercoaster and I have no seatbelt on and I know in my mind soon enough tragedy is going happen but I have no choice but to carry on riding.

I'm crying because this universe is unfair and I don't want to leave just yet, I always believed I would have more time.

I'm crying because this is not the ending I wanted. I wanted my friends and I wanted my family. I wanted a life.

"Come here." Cam sits down next to me and he just holds me and I feel a weight off of my shoulders.

"It's not too late to change your mind you know?"

I shake my head I have my mind made up and it may be one of the only decisions I will physically be able to make if I leave it any longer. I look to him and he looks at me and it feels like it did the first time, nothing else has changed. We are the same people in the same love story it's just some of the pages have been ripped or torn in the making. He intertwines his fingers in mine and it stops the shaking momentarily.

"I am dying but the only thing I can think about it you." 

The words leaving my mouth have never been truer than they are now and I feel Cam's breathing hitch. It's unexpected and he's speechless. It's the truth and the truth is all that matters now. Finally he kisses me. For the first time in what felt like forever and a piece of the heartache is taken away. He is beginning to undo what hurts so bad, he is turning the storm into only a light sprinkling.

"I love you Cam Smith."
