I remember everything like it was yesterday. My friends all gone. Uriah, Marlene, Lynn, Will, and Shauna. All gone.

They all died us some sort of reason that confuses me but I know I'll see them some day. I just feel that someday is coming a little too fast for me. I think about what I've done but I didn't do anything to deserve this. My boyfriend—cheated on me with my best friend, Christina. Now all I have left is Zeke but I'm sure he of all people cares. His girlfriend died his brother died and his closest friends. I'm sure nobody will mind if I leave this world. I'll join my friends.

Just as this thought skims my mind I hear a knock at the door. I noticed I'm crying but I can't do anything but wipe my eyes. I open the door to a tired looked Zeke. He has big purple bags and bloodshot eyes like me. I just hug him and whisper

"I can't do this anymore."

"I know it's hard with everything but we have to get through it."

Tears roll down my face and a sob escapes me. I pull Zeke into my apartment and close the door.

"I don't want to go through with anything more difficult. I don't want to lose anyone else. I got close to people and they either shut me out or died. I can't live like this anymore."

I'm crying uncontrollably and Zeke hugs me. He's trying to comfort me and I think it's working. When I get calmed down I murmur

"I can't lose you."

"What?" He asks

A tear streams down my face and he wipes it away. I say it again

"I can't lose you."

"I know I can't either."

"But wh-what if we die." I stutter probably sounding like a complete idiot.

"We wait for each other on the other side of life and death."

Zeke does what I least expect him to he kisses me and I kiss back.

"I needed to do that at least once" he whispers so only I can hear it.

PAGEBREAK

I was right that day was coming too fast. 2 weeks later I just couldn't stand living I wrote a note to my best friend, Zjeke it said

It was getting too hard so I jumped. I'm probably dead by now but just so you know I love you as a friend. You've been there for me everyday for the past 2 weeks until the time had come and that day is December 2nd 2015. A child is born and somebody is always unfortunate and dies. That person is me. I'll see you on the other side of life and death.

My time of death was 5:18 AM on December 2nd 2015 and I knew it was time to jump. So I did and darkness and pain cornered me until I saw all the people I wanted to see. I didn't say anything I just waited until my best friend showed up.

Zeke

I ran to him and hugged him. I told him that we'll be here forever so we can be happy once again. We did and death sounds sad but once you get to know its not all that bad.

Nothing is the same but it will be this way…

forever
