Chapter 20 - The Last Rose

MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE <3
A/N Hello lovely readers. Today two updates. Yaaaay. Well... A little less yay, cause next chapter will be the last. And this one is full of drama.
Just know that I love you and let me know your thoughts

Damon's pov
Walking on the edge of sanity
I fear heartbreak for infinity

Losing you equals to losing my heart
I gave it to you at out start

The cracks in our bubble are growing
Making my tears start flowing
I can't help but showing
That I'll love you until winds stop blowing

And I wont stop loving you after everything
Can't stop the song of love I sing
With my heart without the fear in my head
It'll stay alive until I'm dead

And even then I will sing for you forever
Abd I will forget you never
Because you've opened my eyes
That even with cracks, you're my paradise

The darkness in me only you can tame
With burning love like an eternal flame

Without you I can hardly breathe air
Without you I'll drown in a sea of dispair.

Please meet me at our coffee place 1 pm tomorrow. Please give me one more chance.

-Damon

The words I wrote yesterday fill my head once again as I walk through the snow towards the meeting place.

He didn't text me that he would be there. I had to trust his mother gave him my rose and letter and that he read it and that he would actually give me a chance.

Yes, me walking was only because I had hope. Maybe I was lucky, otherwise it was probably for the best.

I had a weird feeling, like something was abiut to change today. This morning my family and I had an extraordinary pleasant breakfast. Drake had come over and all of us had been cheerful. Even I, though my afternoon could become horrible when Keith would turn me down.

And when I left everyone gave me a hug and wished me luck. "I can't wait until you get back, Damon. I'll miss you." Sam said. He misses people really quick and even more when he stays at home.

I smiled at the thought of my mother hugging me tightly and kissing my forehead. "I love you." She said. "Everything will be alright."

I sighed and closed my eyes, enjoying the sun that shone on my face. Even with snow it was a beautiful day and all around me I heard children laugh and people chatter.

Finally I reached our spot and sat down at our usual table. It was a nice temperature inside and when I looked at my watch I saw that I was way too early. If Keith decided to come, he would be here in fifteen minutes. So I ordered a coffee.

I started to think, I couldn't stop the train of thoughts that came rushing in. What if he turned me down.

Would I rather have him to stand me up or would I rather have him come and tell me himself he didn't want to continue with me anymore.

Neither of them sounded appealing, but if he would come, I at least had one more chance to look him in the eye. To take one last picture with my mind to keep with me.

The waitress came back with my coffee and put in on the table in front of me.

" Where is your boyfriend?" She asked friendly. For a moment I tensed, but when I saw her smile I relaxed.

"I hope he'll be here soon." I say with a smile.

"I hope so! You know, my girlfriend and I first met here, at this table to be exact. I was working and took her order and when I first laid eyes on here, I felt a spark. It was scary for the both of us, but eventually we came true and I'm planning on proposing her this week." She tells me.

I find myself smiling brightly at her. "That is amazing! I hope she says yes!" I say and she smiles.

"My name is Kitty, by the way. You can call me if you want to order something else, new customers arrived." She said and I nodded.

Twenty minutes later, Keith still hasn't arrived and I sigh starting to become a little desperate. Maybe he decided last minute to come?

Lost in thought I stared out of the window and admired the white world outside to distract myself.

It worked until I heard de door open and felt a cold breeze pass me. Hopeful I turned around, but it wasn't not Keith who arrived. It were the Knives.

I swallowed and my mind blacks out before panicking. What if they did something to Keith? But I didn't see him. They saw me and walked up to me.

My eyes search for Kitty, who is slowly going to the kitchen, hopefully to call the police. The other guests stare down at their cups and plates when they walk by. Everyone is all too familiar with their violence.

"Hello, Faggot." Cameron said before sitting down in front of me. The rest of his group surrounded my table.

"I thought that beating up your boyfriend would teach him a lesson. But apparently he doesn't want to listen. Maybe he gets the message when we do something to you." He said with an evil smirk on his face.

"Uhm excuse me, gentlemen." A man who looks like the manager interrupted. "I'm afraid I have to ask you to leave before. If you won't I have to call the police. You see, because you're disturbing our guests." He explained calm.

"But of course." Cameron said through gritten teeth. He nodded and Shane grabbed me by the collar and dragged me with him outside. The group surrounded us and Cameron stood in front of me.

"Go ahead Jeff." He said and the next moment I got a blow against cheek and I feel the bones crush. I screamed in pain and wanted to cover my cheek with my hand, but with a single sign of Cameron, two guys grabbed my arms and held me in place.

"You know what? Instead of beating you up as a warning, I think I'm gonna end this now." He said and I saw something flicker in his hands.

"Why?" I asked, but he ignored my question and stabbed the knofe forcefully in my stomach, and again and again.

The pain that came with the stabs was overwhelming and if it wasn't for the the guys who held me up, I would have collapsed already. I refound my balance and looked down.

The blood made me dizzy and I didn't hear the sirens until the group started running and I was released. I did however hear my name. And my eyes searched for the voice that called out for me.

As I sunk down on my knees, clutching my stomach, I found him. Keith. He stoos in the snow, with red cheeks and horror on his face and with a rose, my last rose, in his hand.

He came

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

Keith's pov

Nobody can blame me that I had my doubts about going. When my mother gave me the rose and letter I refused to read. But the next morning I decided to read and his words touched me once again.

A poem longer than any other he ever wrote about me, so honest and desperate that it made me cry again. I  understood his fear as soon as he told me his story.

At first I was hurt that he hadn't told me earlier, but after a while I started to understand. And it was half past twelve when I made the decision to go and see him.

I had to get ready, read the poem once more and walked out of the house a little before 1pm. It wasn't a long walk and I hoped he could forgive me for being late.

I held his rose, a sign for him and myself that I forgave him, that I loved him and that I would give him another chance.

But things didn't go as planned. In the distance I saw our coffee shop. But as soon as my heart fluttered with joy, a well known and very hated group came outside, dragging Damon along.

They didn't see me, but I started to walk faster as soon as I heard his scream. I heard the sirens and felt a little bit of relief when the group split up and ran away. That was until I saw Damon, bleeding.

"DAMON!" I screamed. Horrow filled me and our eyes met for a second when he sank on his knees. I ran towards him and fell down, catching him before he fully collapsed on the floor.

My knees hurt, but I didn't care, not a little bit. All I saw was Damon in my arms. His face filled with pain, but also with something else.

"You came." He said and he smiled.

"Of course I came." I said softly. He groaned in pain and clutched his stomach while blood kept flooding out of rhe three stabwounds.

I pressed on them with both my hand while his hand rested on my lap. The snow on the ground colord red and made us cold and wet.

"I was really scared that you wouldn't come." He whispered and a tear escaped my eye. "But I'm always scared. Am I not?" He laughed a little which resulted in couching and blood dripping from his mouth.

"Don't laugh, don't move and keep talking to me, Damon." I ordered him to. He just looked at me with sad eyes.

"Can you forgive me for all the things I have done to you? All the times I backed away in fear and..." I shook my head in disbelief.

"I have already forgiven you. I love you Damon, so don't you dare to leave me now." I told him desperately.

He lifted one of his bloody hands and touched my cheek. "I love you too, Keith. I think I started falling for you the very day we met. Isn't it ironic that we met because of the Knives and end because of them?"

"It's fucked up, Damon. And please don't say things like that. You're gonna make it. Please stay alive."

"I don't know Keith."

"Promise me."

"I can't promise to stay alive, my love. But I promise I will always be with you. Like I said in my poem." He reached out and grabbed the rose next to me with a groan.

"You've made me so incredibly proud. You have grown so much since I saw you for the first time in the park. I knew you were gonna be very special to me from the beginning. But I never thought you'd mean this much to me. You have become stronger while I kept fearing. And I'm sorry I couldn't be better for you. I'm sorry it has to ends like this. But it's not your fault, if it is someone's fault, it's mine." He coughed and looked at me with an intense stare.

"Promise me, Keith, that you will keep strong, that you will keep going, keep growing and that you stay strong for me. Your mother needs you. Please, promise me." Tears escaped his eyes and I couldnt hold back mine either.

A sob escaped my mouth and I placed  a loving kiss on his lips.

"I promise, Damon." I said with a cracked voice.

"I love you, Keith. I love you so much." He whispered and dropped his hand.

"I love you too." I whispered. And looke hin in the eyes one more time. His chocolate brown eyes with amber dots. The eyes I fell in love with and would never forget.

And as I looked I saw the light behind his eyes die.

I realized he had stopped breathing.

I knew his heart had stopped beating.

And I broke in a thousand pieces. He left me. He was gone. He-he...

I screamed and lifted him in an embrace. One he would never return. I would never feel his arms around me again. He would never smile again, never crack jokes again. He would never see the sunset with me again. He would never kiss me again.

I held him and cried, not finding any comfort. His blood stained my clothes while my tears stained his cheeks.

It was then when help came. The amulance arrived, too late. Just like I had been.

"Damon please, please, come back. Please!" I cried and screamed again. I didn't pay attention to the crowd that had gathered. The shocked gasps, and words of pity.

I looked at Damon, looking for any sign of life. But there was no light in his eyes. And the blood was everywhere, turning my whole world red.

I closed his eyes and took his rose. The last rose he would ever give to me. And then the ambulance brothers pulled me away from Damon.

I f course resisted. I screamed and screamed while they checked his heartbeat. But I already knew he had none.

"Are you hurt?" They asked. I shook my head, not able to answer properly. They let me sit down and I stared at Damon.

My Damon, who now was an actual Angel.
