Javier knew what he had to do. He took the box that Carlos gave him and walked to Katey's hotel to take her to dinner. When he greeted her, he told her that he had a surprise for her. She told him that she had something to tell him too. After dinner, Javier and Katey went into the tents on the beach to share their secrets.
"Katey, I love you. Will you marry me?"
Katey started to cry. "Oh Javier. I want to, but…"
"What's the matter?"
"I have cancer. I'm dying."
Javier and Katey held each other in a hug for a long time. They fell asleep in each others arms.
Javier woke up the next morning at sunrise. Katey did not. Javier carried her lifeless body to ocean and walked into the water. Pretty soon, the water was over his head. He kept walking.
I found Javier and Katey's bodies the next day. Javier had his arms wrapped around her, a smile on both their faces. It killed me to see my little brother dead, but I couldn't help but smile knowing that he was reunited with his love in heaven.
-The End-
