Beautiful Release
Summary: Aaron plunges into depression as the unthinkable happens...
Preface
Aaron bounded into Dale Head, a huge grin plastered on his face. Just three weeks ago, Aaron finally confessed his love for his boyfriend, Jackson Walsh, who was left permanently paralysed in a freak accident in October. It took a lot of work for Aaron, but he finally got Jackson back, and could finally start to see some kind of future for them both.
"Jackson? Ryan's having a little leaving do up at the Woolpack, you up for it?" Aaron smiled, taking a seat next to Jackson's bed.
Jackson turned his attention away from the TV and smiled. "I don't really feel up to it Aaron. I'm not feeling too good, but you can go! Give Ryan a hug for me and wish him luck yeah?"
"You are looking a bit pale. Want me to call the doctor or something?" Aaron asked, running his hand across Jackson's forhead. "Mate, you're burning up real bad! If you're ill, I can stay. Ryan'll understand."
"No! I've already got Mum and Joe fussing! It's ok. Go on, Go see him off. I'll be fine, Go have fun."
Aaron reluctantly agreed, not wanting to let his stubbornness cause an argument. "Alright. I won't get drunk, and I'll pop in and see you before i go home, ok?"
"Aaron I'll probably be already asleep! You can see me in the morning! Go on, go!"
Aaron nodded and stood up. "Alright." Aaron bent down and kissed Jackson softly on the lips. "I love you, you know."
Jackson smiled and nodded "And I love you. I'll see you tomorrow!"
Aaron smiled and shouted a quick goodbye to Joe and Hazel, before leaving the house. He hesitated slightly, and it took all of his willpower to stop him from going back into the house, but he was determined to have fun. For Jackson, anyway.
Aaron arrived at the Woolpack, Ryan was already half drunk, and was sitting in the corner with Adam, Debbie, Mia and Cain. He waved over to the group, ordered a drink, and joined them in thier tales, as they reminicsed over Ryan's life in the village.
eeeeee
"Don't forget that time that girl was stalking you in Bar West" Aaron laughed. "Can you remember what you did to throw her off the scent? You kissed me!"
"Oh do one Livesy I didn't kiss you!" Ryan smiled, struggling to keep his eyes open.
Aaron's phone rang loudly beside him, he picked it up and groaned at the name. "Hazel.." he mouthed to Adam
"Hello?"
"Aaron, it's Joe. You need to get back here now."
Aaron could hear the faint sound of sobbing coming from the other end of the phone.
"Joe? What's going on? Who's crying?"
"Mate, Just get here now! It's Jackson...He won't wake up."
