A.N. I wasn't going to write an epilogue, but I got the suggestion (again by jim89, again, thanks man) and I thought it was a good idea so here's a bit of Max's POV afterwards. This will be the last chapter, no more after this
MAX'S POV
She really did it. She actually set me free but at what cost? Her life. The police let me go after a couple days after I gave them the suicide note and sure enough, when I got home, I found her dead body hanging by a noose in our bedroom. I cried at the sight.
"You didn't have to do this" I managed to say through tears, not like she could actually hear me though
The funeral was a few weeks later, and I tried not to cry, but everything did, I kept thinking of her, and how much she must have cared about me. It was then time for me to give my eulogy and I tried to make it as emotional as I felt, to live up to what she did and why she did.
"Chloe Price was a lot of things, a best friend, a girlfriend, and a mother. But, as humans, we do tend to forget things, and that was the case of what happened to Alesa. She blamed herself and went through this crazy effort of hiding it. That's how I know how much she really cared, about me, about Alesa, and about everyone. Chloe, if you can actually hear me from wherever you are, I want you to know that I don't blame you at all" I was starting to choke up a bit "I'm as much to blame. I could have taken her, I could have woken you up earlier, there's so many things that could have been done that would have made this entire thing not happen. If only you'd told me, I wouldn't have lost you too. Chloe, I love you and will never stop, so please, if you can hear me, I'm sorry. For everything and that you decided to commit suicide. I'm sorry" I was in full tears right there over her coffin

Thank you, Max. Thank you
