(yes I got inspired from a Grey's anatomy episode for the audio 🙄 don't blame me)

THIRD PERSON POV

Grayson wanted to stop her from leaving, he really did. But he didn't have the strength to move. Everything was in slow motion and he's head was about to explose.

H-his brother? His own brother?

As soon as he realised that she left, he took his keys and ran outside to get in his car.
It took him half an hour to realise it, but better now than never.
He didn't know where she went, but he didn't care. He would keep looking for her no matter what.

As he reached the bridge, he noticed bright flash lights. The police, and an ambulance. It was a car crash.
He slowly stopped the car as he realised it was Vanessa's car.
He quickly got out of his car, not taking the time to turn off the engine as he ran towards the accident.

He brutally stopped at the sight. He became pale, as if he just saw a ghost. He couldn't believe it.

There, in front of him, he saw Vanessa, laying on the ground, covered in blood.
A few persons around her, one of them was trying to get her heart to beat again.

Though it was useless. Vanessa was long gone, and everyone there knew it. But they still tried.

Until they stopped.
An old woman, the one who called 911, started shaking as someone said,

"It's too late."

Grayson thought of a nightmare.
Yeah, it's a nightmare. He's gonna wake up in a few minutes, laughing at how ridiculous his dream was.
But it never happened. He never woke up.

Instead he ran to the dead body, laying on the ground, falling to his knees as he started sobbing uncontrollably.

He just realised what happened. And damn, it hit him hard.

That's when he also noticed the red marks on her neck and wrists. Who did that?

He leaned so he could rest his head on her chest. It wasn't moving up and down like it used to, when they would cuddle in their bed. instead, he was met with silence.

Everyone seemed to realised he knew her, so they let him. No one moved, they just watched. How heartbreaking this scene was.

"N-no Nessa, you can't leave me. This isn't over, our story is not over. We just got m-married, we just had a b-baby. You can't leave us behind. I need you, fuc- w-we need you. Please" he begged, hugging the now cold body against him.

A policeman took a step towards Grayson, before asking,

"Can you identify this woman? We need to make a rapport."

"S-she's my wife."

"We're sorry for your loss. What was her name?"

He tried to keep it together when he heard him say 'was', and instead he replied,

"V-Vanessa Dolan."

The guy quickly thanked him before he nodded to his colleague.

"We need to take the body to the hospital now to do a few tests, Sir. Would you like to come?"

Grayson nodded, as they gently pushed him off the body so they could put it in the ambulance.

It was at this moment he realised how many people were around him, watching. Though the police told them to go home, or at least take a few steps back.
He only now realised there wasn't any other car.

"W-what happened?" Grayson quietly asked a policeman.

"The two cars collided. No one survived."

"Where's the o-other car?"

"We just pulled it out of the water. We're not totally sure if this family died at the collision or if they drowned."

Grayson nodded, before someone told him to get in the ambulance.
He kindly refused, and told them he would follow them with his car.

How could he get in next to his wife's body?
Right, he couldn't.

____

They wanted to do a few tests, they told Grayson to wait. They called Vanessa's parents, and of course, Veronica.

It didn't take long until she got here.

She ran in the hospital, looking for someone she knew.

"G-Grayson!" She cried out.

Grayson turned his head to look at her, "R-Roni, I'm so sorry."

She ran to him and started kicking his chest, pushing him.

"W-Why didn't you save her?! You, you should have saved her.." she cried.

Veronica was now a sobbing mess, holding Grayson tightly in her arms.

"She can't be gone! She, she just started living!"

He could imagine what she was going through. She lost her twin, her soulmate. And she was also Grayson's soulmate.

Soon after, her parents came in, looking devastated.
And Grayson's mom arrived one hour later.

"He, Ethan has been diagnosed with bipolar disorders when he was 15, I, I never thought he would stop taking his medication." Lisa explained as everyone was waiting for the funeral.

"He's sick! And he's my brother! Why didn't you tell me?!"

"We didn't want you to look at him differently, and he made us promise to keep it secret as long as possible." 

"I'm his brother, his twin brother. I had every right to know! It doesn't matter. He's my brother, I would've loved him anyway, and I would've looked after him. Making sure he took his medication and none of this would've happened!" Grayson said.

"You know, sometimes it's fate. It doesn't matter how hard you try to change the scenario, maybe it was her destiny."

"Her destiny to die?! She deserved to live as much as anyone in this room."

Lisa nodded, "I understand you're upset baby,"

"She didn't deserve to die.." Grayson said as he tried his best not to cry.
He felt as if all he did since Vanessa died was crying. Every day, every night.

He couldn't take care of his baby. He reminded him so much of Vanessa.

"You need to move on, Sean needs you."

Sean... The baby they named after Grayson's father.

"B-but I need Nessa,"

Lisa hugged her son as she slowly started rocking him from left to right.

"I promise, everything's gonna be okay baby."
