Gilbert awoke in a hospital. However, instead of having Alfred there beside him, there was an IV and a heart monitor. Gilbert looked around, waiting for his vision to focus. After a few brief moments, he looked at the hospital bed beside him.
"Oh Gott!" He thought to himself as he recognized the blonde to be Alfred. "Alfred..." Gilbert began to tear up when he looked at Alfred's heart monitor, a flat line. There was no way Alfred could be dead. Nein, he wouldn't allow it. He utterly refused to live in a world without Alfred. Leaning over, he tried to take the other boy's hand, which resulted in his falling out of the bed and a pained cry. Gilbert laid in a crumpled ball on the floor, wounds reopened. There was no way he could get up. He would simply have to wait for someone to arrive.
Gilbert waited for a long time before one of the nurses finally came in. However, his wait was in vain. He had lost far too much blood. Gilbert felt reality slip away and a feeling of peace wash over him. There he sat, dressed in a white button-down shirt and black dress pants. At the end of a tunnel was a light, which Gilbert gladly crawled over to. Waiting was Alfred, in a similar outfit but with a slight difference. Alfred had wings. Gilbert's eyes widened as Alfred smiled and held out his hand.
"Welcome to the land of eternal peace, Gilbert. Take my hand and I'll lead you there."
Gilbert gladly took his hand as he felt happiness flood through his soul. "Alfred, is this the end? Can we finally be together? Forever?"
Alfred closed his eyes and smiled deeply. "Forever."
