* Issy's POV *

Harry left last night for his last week of the tour. In about seven days the tour would be over and we could finally spend as much time together as we wanted without having to say a heartbreaking goodbye every time.

I had just came back from Grace's helping her put the finishing touches for the wedding which was also next week, making sure everything was on track for her big day.

I was home now, dropping my bag on the couch, when the doorbell suddenly rang. I put my phone down on the coffee table, before walking down the hallway to answer the door.

When I opened the door I was greeted by a tall mail man, his hands holding a big brown package against his chest, motioning me to take the clipboard from off the top off it and sign. After I did I waved goodbye after he thanked me.

I carried the box to the table and set it down, wondering who it could be from. I then looked at the white sealed sticker to read the address and when I did, my heart immediately dropped.

It was Jordan's home address.

Thoughts and emotions flooded through my body as my eyes repeatedly scanned over the black words. Why would his parents be sending me a package all of sudden? I had no idea what to think or believe so I just did what I intended to do and got a knife, tearing the box open.

I was first met by a note, with my name on it, what looked like to be on top of some stuff that was packed in the box. It was some old stuff that we had given each other when we were dating. Once I noticed this, a smile crept upon my lips, along with fresh tears beginning to spill out of my eyes as they were met by all the objects from our past relationship. I took the note, opening it up, my heart sinking even further down into my chest as I recognized his handwriting.

Hi Issy, I know this is kind of silly of me to write a note, since I literally wrote you one like a day ago to you when you were in the hospital, but what the heck haha. I'm leaving for chemo today, and I was cleaning up my room, figuring out what to bring in my hospital room, when I came across all the times that you are looking at in the box. I've kept all the stuff throughout this year. From our Christmas presents, to anniversary ones, to birthday ones ( sorry I didn't get you anything by the way) and notes that we passed in class together, and pictures. That type of stuff. I know that I'm not gonna be able to do anything with it now, so I thought you should have it. I would send this package myself but there's just no time. But I'm desperately hoping that one day it will get to you somehow, that's why I'm writing this to you to explain. I don't know if I'll be alive or dead when you read this, but either way, I wanted you to have it.

Tears continually started to roll down my cheeks as I read word after word of his note. Not sad tears as much as it was happy. I was so happy that I actually had something from him that I could hold on to, which was that note. Instead of that tragic memory of when I was with him when he passed. This note was the last thing he wrote to me and with him gone, it made it that more special. And the fact that he actually cared enough that it would get to me in some way meant a lot. It meant that he genuinely cared to, and that's a reassurance I thought I would never ever even think about after what happended.

I rummaged through the box of stuff that had belonged to us from our relationship, smiling as I picked up one of his sweatshirts from his football team. It was my favorite and I always used to wear it at his games.

The next thing that caught my eye was some pictures of him I took in his jersey, he always hated when I did that. I can't believe he kept these either.

There also one of his footballs that he used, and a notebook of our messages to each other during class.

" Thank you Jordan", I said, hugging the box of the last things I had of him against my chest.

*******

" Hi Dominick?", I asked into the phone, smiling as Jordan's dad's voice filled with happiness over the other line of the phone.

" Issy! So nice to hear your voice hun how are you?", he asked me.

" I'm great thank you how are you and your wife?"

" Eh we're alright, letting each day go by you know?"

" Yea I know, but I wanted to thank you so much for sending me the package it means alot", I told him.

" No problem honey he wanted you to have it, I'm just glad we found it", he said.

" If you don't mind me asking, how did you guys find it?", I questioned, sitting down on the couch.

" Well we were cleaning up his room, seeing if there was anything we wanted to keep, and when we went into his closet, we found the box, it's a crazy thing once you think about it", he said, laughing slightly.

" That is really crazy, well I hope you guys are well I just wanted to thank you for making sure it got to me, please tell Sarah I said thank you ", I told him.

" I will hun take care say hello to Harry for me", he said.

" Alright I will bye", I said, hanging up the phone.

********

" That is crazy", Harry said, running his fingers through his hair as we Faced Timed.

" I know and he left a note and with all these things that we exchanged it's just unbelievable", I told him, holding up the box to show him, watching as his jaw dropped.

" Oh my gosh that's crazy Iss, that was nice of him though now you have something to remember him by", he said, eating his banana, making me laugh as he shoved it in front of his laptop to show me.

" Ahh your too much, I gotta go babe I have a class in half n hour I'll call you later tonight okay?", I told him.

" Alright I love you have fun at school", he said, making kissy faces at me while chuckling.

" And I love you bye ", I told him, before ending the call.

I stood up from the table to go upstairs, but then the sick naceous feeling I had been feeling this morning suddenly came back. And I had been having this feeling for three days straight ever since Harry left. I didn't want to think about it, or get too paranoid,

But I was late
