"Do you think the concept of 'forever' is possible?" I didn't look at him, but kept my eyes on the blue water, rushing to shore.
"It depends." He bit his lip and then looked at me; our eyes meeting. "Forever means to never let go. Forever can never be because we live and die, things change, and so do people."
"You make it seem like such a bad thing." I questioned him, and then played with my hands in the sand.
"You didn't let me finish." He smiled and played with my fingers, "Forever can also mean never letting go. I like to think of it as something to beyond our knowledge to comprehend." He stared at me for a good while.
I smiled at him; his eyes carmel brown. My voice barely above a whisper, "Your stare … it makes me feel like I'm barely breathing." I laughed a little, my nerves taking over.
"I want our love to last forever, Alli." He smiled again, and I softly nodded.
"That's definitely something I can comprehend." I leaned sideways and kisses his lips softly. I could definitely get used to a forever of him.
But I remember nothing lasts 'forever'. Our forever ended way too short. I missed him. But I knew that people move on, and you can find new 'forevers'. Owen was my new forever.

When Alli decides to end her life short, she tends to fail and lands herself in the house of her former friend's aunt Eileen's guardianship and among the angels. Her angel. Her savior. Owen.
