Letting Go
||||||Nate||||||

He was dead.
I couldn't believe it. I killed Dark. It's a good thing that I always kept a pocket knife handy just in case I ever needed it.
"Nate!" Morgan cried, holding me in her arms. I could see her smiling at me. "You did it! We can be happy finally!"
I didn't really know about that honestly. It became harder and harder to breathe as time went by and I felt so weak that I could barely move.
"Nate?" Dookie asked, concern in his voice. "You okay man?"
"Yes." I said, barely managing to choke the word out.
"Are you sure?" Morgan asked. "You're really pale. And the bite that Dark have you looks really bad. I'm going to call an ambulance."
"I'm fine Morgan." I insisted. My eyelids became heavy and it became harder to keep my eyes open. "Besides, if you call them, they won't help me. I'm a wanted man."
"Nate! Don't you dare!" She said. "You can't leave me like this! And it doesn't matter if they think you're a criminal! They'll still help you!"
The next thing I knew, she was kissing me. I tried to kiss her back, I really did. But it was hard to move and so hard to move...
"You need to come right away!" Morgan yelled. "My fiancé is dying!"
I barely managed it, but I looked over at Dark. He lay in the road motionless and I liked that a lot. At least he would leave Morgan and Dookie alone.....
"Guys," I croaked. "thanks for sticking with me until the very end. When everyone turned against me, you guys stuck by my side. And I am beyond thankful for that."
"Nate.." Morgan said. I could hear in her voice that she was trying to hold back tears.
"Dookie, you are the best friend that anyone could ever ask for." I whispered. "I can't thank you enough for everything you've ever done for me. You're my best friend and you always will be. Thank you for being my friend."
"Don't make me cry asshole." He said.
"Morgan," I said. "I love you. There's no other way for me to say it. Words will never express how much I truly love you. So I'll just say that I love you. And hundreds of thousands of years from now, that fact will not have changed."
"Nate, stop it!" She said. I could hear her crying now. "You made me cry you little fuck face."
"You're gonna be a great mother by the way." I said. "I'm sorry I can't be there to see our child grow up in the way that we wanted it to be, but I guess this is how it was meant to be. But don't worry. I'll find a way to watch over you guys. Because you guys deserve it after everything you've done for me."
Finally, my eyelids became much too heavy to keep open and just before they closed, I could hear the sound of an ambulance and I swore that I saw one of Dark's fingers twitch slightly.
