With no idea how much longer I had,I wanted to spend it all with Ben. I'm just not sure he wanted to spend it with me.

"Ben, what's wrong?" "What if we never see each other again? I mean, we aren't even going to the same place." I sighed, "That's a huge possibility. Maybe I can stay between the dead and living like you do. We can spend time together there."

He was real quiet. It was kind of upsetting. "Okay, Ben, I'm sorry." "For what," he said quietly. "Everything. I don't know why you're upset. But whatever the reason, I'm sorry." He sighed. With no response, he kissed me. "It's fine. Really."

"What's dying like?" "I couldn't really tell you. It happened so fast that all I remember is being in a place that I did recognize." "Is it scary?" "A little. But you get used to it." I pulled myself closer to him. I was so close, I could hear him breathing.

"I'm scared." "I know. Me too."

We just sat there. In each other's arms. Not knowing if this was the last time. "I love you, Ben Hargreeves." "I love you too, (Y/N)."

"If we never see each other when you die, I want you to know that this has been my favorite thing in my life. Or afterlife," Ben said before kissing my cheek. I wanted to cry. I couldn't though. I didn't want to upset Ben.

What if this was the last moment we had? Was this how I wanted it to all end? No. It wasn't.

I wanted to end in a big way. After all, when I die, I'll be stuck with my mom again. No freedom.

I looked at Ben. Our eyes met. At that moment, I knew I wanted to spend the little bit of time I had left with him.
