Goodbye
by Zzilly14

She was a sweet woman, one he'd never forget. She was beautiful, kind... Their romance didn't last long, but he'd say it was one of the best he'd ever had.

Making love to her was... ecstasy. Atop a police car, with handcuffs... he might've been a little... childish during their passion, but it was amazing to him that he could love again, after Jenny.

Even if he was under the influence of candy, he couldn't deny his feelings. But, he never took that chance with Joyce, and now it was too late.

"Goodbye," he whispered sadly at her fresh grave.
