A/n: Hello there! I assume you must not be feeling the kindest with me after last chapter, but fear not! The story will continue! (And hopefully get a happy ending!)
Nya's POV
It's all my fault.
It's probably because of me that Jay will be wheeled off to the mortuary. Maybe- Just maybe, he wouldn't have gone off and gotten shot if I had told him the truth.
I see Kai sitting down beside me, outside Jay's room.
"It's gonna be okay, sis. Jay can survive. He's strong. He'll get through it. Besides, the doctors have given him 2 more hours to get out of the state he's in." He says to me, squeezing my hand to reassure me. But I know, we all know, that it's very unlikely he'll live.
I turn my gaze upwards and see a crying Seliel being comforted by Cole, who isn't looking too happy either.
........(Time skip to half an hour later).........
"I'm here! What happened to Jay?! Is he okay?" Comes in a rushing Lloyd. Poor kid. He doesn't even know because of all the stuff with the cops.
Though seeing how we are, he quickly understands. "It's serious.... Isn't it?" He enquires.
"It's not serious! He's dead, Lloyd! He's dead!" Seliel wails, with a hint of anger in her sad voice.
"Oh...... I- I'm sorry......" Lloyd replies, sadness filling his voice too.
The doctor comes out of the room, and tells us, "I am sorry. At this point, it's fairly unlikely that he'll survive. You all can go to say goodbye, though." And goes off.
"Who'll go first?" Asks Cole. At this, Seliel abruptly lets go of him, gets up, and heads into the room.
We all are able to hear the ensuing crying, mourning and voicing of regrets from her, though. After a few minutes, she comes out, and Zane goes inside the room.
Zane's POV
I enter the room where Jay is laying, filled with sadness.
"I... I don't know if you can hear me now, Jay. But I hope you can," I swallow and continue, "You were always there for us. When we were needing help, you were always there with a toolbox and a pun.
You cared for every one of us, and even helped me become more human than I could ever imagine. You gave me a sense of humour, a better understanding of myself when I found out that I was a Nindroid, and most importantly, You gave me a heart. You always thought positively, even in the most dire of situations. You always had a plan. You always talked, and were one of the best friend's anyone could ever have. I pay you my respect, my gratitude, and my goodbye, Jay. May you rest in peace..." I trailed off, overcome by emotion.I slowly walk out of the room, letting Cole go inside.
I feel empty inside without him...
Cole's POV
I slowly walk inside Jay's room, seeing him lying on the bed.
"Hey buddy," I start, "How are you? It's going to be pretty lonely here without you. I... I hope you find some happiness in Heaven. And why'd you go like that? You were always the one boasting about, 'If I go down, might as well go down laughing'. And what happened to our deal? Who am I going to make the best man of my wedding now..." I trail off, trying to lighten the mood enough so I can at least speak. "And how do you think Nya will feel about this? Come back to us, Jay. Please. And, well, if you can't......... I say you goodbye, My friend. You were one of the best people I ever met. And you will always be in my heart. May you rest in peace..." I say as I hug him one last time, tears streaming down my face.
I then walk out of the room, gesturing for Kai to go now.
Why did Jay have to go?
Kai's POV
I walk inside Jay's room, regret filling me to the fullest when I saw his body. Why did it have to be him! It should have been someone more expendable. Someone like me..... Oh, yeah. Have to say goodbye.
"Hello, Jay. I... I suppose you're not the happiest with me because of how I treated you because of the whole thing with Nya. And... I don't blame you, either. I really do regret being so overprotective over her. Maybe, if I had let you two be together, Nya wouldn't be so heartbroken and you wouldn't be stuck here. But I didn't. And- I.. I'm sorry, Jay," I say, starting to tear up. "I-I'll miss you a lot. Goodbye, Jay. You were like a brother to me." And at this point, I'm crying my heart out as I leave the room, and let Nya go into the room.
It's all my fault.
Nya's POV
I can't help but start crying as soon as I enter Jay's room and see him. Why did it have to be him? Why?
"Hi, Jay. I-I hope you will enjoy the afterlife. And, I'm sorry. I lied to you again. The reason I never told you who I liked, was because I liked you. I liked the way your eyes glittered with blue, the way You were always cheerful, and I was in love with you. But, you probably don't feel the same towards me. Aside from that, you were also a great friend. You were always there for me when I was......
Not feeling well. You were always willing to listen. And I appreciate you for that. I-I'm sorry I lied. You were the bestest friend anyone could ever have, and.......
I love you." I start crying, wettening my cheeks all over again. "Goodbye, Jay Walker, my friend, and my love. May you rest in peace." And with that, I give him a small peck on the cheek, and leave the room.Jay's gone. Things will never be the same again.
No one's POV
But, after Nya gave that small symbol of love, something happened.
The nurse watching Jay started shouting, and doctors rushed into the room. It was like a miracle, but it happened all the same because of one single moment of love between Jay and Nya. (Or rather, a dying and unconscious Jay and an okay Nya)
After about a few more hours, the doctors emerged out of the room, giving everyone the good news. Cheers were heard, streamers had flown, and Jay had uttered a single sentence in the pure interest of his terrible sense of humor:
"I'm back, b*tches, coz you'll never get rid of me that easily."
Everyone was happy, with Zane even putting on his funny switch, which he only did on special occasions.
Everyone was happy, and even though Jay knew that the road to a full recovery would be tough, he also knew that he'd always have his friends by his side.
And though everyone was partying in Jay's room, Jay himself was nowhere to be seen. Why?
Because Nya had taken him to the roof of the hospital, where the two were having their own moments together.
"Was it true?" He asked Nya.
"What was true?" Nya asked back, confused by what he was asking.
"What you said to me back in my room... The part that you love me." Jay stated, making Nya blush.
"Uhh yeah." And with a sigh, she added, "Look, it's okay if you don't like me back. I won't feel hurt if you decline. Not much, anyway."
"Why would I think of declining? I love you too. What do you think helped me come back in the first place?" Jay replied, slowly tapping the spot on his cheeks where he'd been kissed with a grin.
Nya let out a giggle, before replying with, "Then it's a good thing I was there." And leaning closer to him.
Jay also leaned in, and the two kissed, well, as well two can kiss when one is confined to a wheelchair because of a broken back.
"I'm looking forward to a future with you, y'know." Nya said when the two broke apart, because as we all know, humans need to breathe. (Even Lego ones)
Jay replied, "Me too. Whatever happens next, let's face the future together."
A/n: See? Told you I wouldn't give this story a sad ending! Anyway, one more chapter to go, then this book is finished! So, bye! See you all next chapter!
