Fading Away
This is a sequel to surviving darkness. A big shoutout to Blondi-Buscus for letting me use the characters that are in their story.

Toby's pov:
It's been 3 months since autumn died. When I received the news I raced to the hospital that she was in just hoping that it was a practical joke.
FLASHBACK BY 3 MONTHS
"Hi I'm Toby Turner and I'm looking for autumn" I stammered out quickly
"Ward 3. I need to warn you though it's not a pretty sight" the kind receptionist said kindly.
"Thanks" I yelled back while sprinting with all I could muster. As I got to the ward I saw a bed moving past with a body bag on top. Asking who was in the bag the doctors said sadly
"A guy named Toby Turners girlfriend". Falling to my knees I slowly steed to cry. In fact I never cred this hard well maybe that time that Gryphon nearly died.
"So you're Toby Turner. She was carrying this letter when she died. Just a small condolence she died in her sleep. No pain" a doctor said
"Thanks doc I'll leave you alone to do your jobs. When will the funeral be just a though so I know." Was all I could say through my tears!
"three months tomorrow at Queens street"
"Thanks" I said while walking away
When I got back to my car I started to read the last thing aurtum ever wote.
Dear Toby,
We've had a great time together… I've been trying to relive the moments, but I know that I'm not going to survive this. So I'm writing you this as not a goodbye note, but more of a see you soon, but not too soon. I know I'm dying, I've known it since the beginning. Tell the girls that I love them. Tell Nicole that she was the best sister I could have… God this is getting sappy… I just… I love you Toby, and that's not going to stop when I die, hopefully. I don't know what happens when you die, and I'm not going to pretend that I do know. I don't believe in any kind of god, I don't believe in anything really. The only thing I believe in is that life ends for everyone sometime, but I don't know what to expect on the other side. I hate ending Toby, I really do. They're always so scary, and they hurt. Almost never is there a happy ending, except in princess stories. Though I'm not a princess, you've still made me pretty damn happy, so I guess this is a happy ending… I'm going to miss you, wherever I'm going. Promise me that you will take care of yourself, and Nicole. Start dating; find the right women, because I know Toby, that it probably wasn't me. I'm just a fan from Canada who happened to move in with you. We didn't have long enough together, and I know that, and I'm so sorry, even though I can't control this. I love you so much Toby, and in the words of a wise man, I hate the ending myself, but it started with an alright scene. Our first date; our fifth date; the time you took me to my families, the time I got so drunk I don't even remember it. The memories we've made with each other made the story worth living. Our first kiss; do you still remember it? It was sweet, and shy, just like all our kisses, the way I like them, and hopefully you do too. Toby Turner, I thank you for the best two years of my life. I love you.

FLASHBACK ends
Tomorrow is autumn's funeral I don't know whether I'll be able to go. Strike that I will go for autumn's sack.
