Nick / Stephen
"When your minds made up" – The Frames
Nick looked on as Stephen backed away from the door and he had never felt so helpless in his life.
Stephen kept eye contact until the very last moment. Nick wanted nothing more than to turn away, but couldn't. If he could give Stephen some small measure of comfort in his last minutes – he would do it – no question. Someone was here for him at his death; someone that cared about him and would remember him always.
Stephen was always stubborn and sure they had a tendency to butt heads - but Nick had always respected the other mans point of view. In the past he never truly wanted to take the man's choices away, he just liked to debate and argue, until that moment -
