"Just follow my lead," he said confidently, and I nodded, ready to comply. The water tank towered above us, its ladder reaching from bottom to top, but a locked gate stood in our way, surrounded by a daunting barbed wire fence. We ascended the stairs and mirrored his movements as he climbed over the gate. Once he was over, he reached back to help me through. I couldn't shake the thought that this wasn't exactly how I pictured spending my evening at 8 o'clock. Taking a deep breath, I crossed the threshold, a mix of fear and excitement coursing through me. This was my first time here, and I had no idea what awaited us. As we continued up the last flight of stairs, I finally reached the top of the water tank-and my jaw dropped in awe. "Wow," I breathed, completely captivated by the scene before me-a moment straight out of a movie. He guided me to a comfortable spot, and I couldn't help but smile. "This is everything I've ever wanted." We sat under the moonlight, the city lights twinkling in the distance, the cool breeze wrapping around us like a gentle embrace. As he moved behind me, his arms encircled me, bringing warmth and a sense of security that made this moment even more magical.

My heart pulsated through my chest and I didn't think I could hold on for much longer. The frightening, terrorising feeling of his fingers slipping through mine was causing the arm that was gripping to the edge of the cliff to shake. "Hold on, Harry! I've got you, I swear! Please, just hold on!" my voice held a shrill of terror to it and my eyes were filling with tears; tears of pain, frustration and sheer horror. Harry moved his gaze from our slipping fingers to my eyes. "It's okay, Ethan. Let go. You can't save me; not this time." I hated how calm his tone was. I hated how defeated he sounded. He had never given up - we always held hope for one another! We never gave up. "Don't you say that to me! Don't you fucking say that to me!" I roared, a small sob escaping my lips. Harry just smiled sadly, his muscular, beautiful body swaying in the harsh wind. The fall was so big; he would surely die of a heart attack before he hit the ground. I prayed to God he would. No. I was breaking my own rule; I would not give up on him. Either both of us lived or neither of us would. My life would be over the second his ended, anyway.
