Chapter Twenty Two

Kyle

It's been one full month and yesterday was Dylan's funeral. I told my mom that I was going away. Just for awhile so I can get over everything. I'm going to Vancouver. A place that Dylan always wanted to go to. He said something about the rain makes it seem like the best place in the world. It would be even better if he was here with me.

I pulled into the parking lot, getting out of the car and walking over to the spot where Dylan and I made love.

He told me to not open this until after the funeral. And to open it right here. I respected his wishes and done so.

I swallowed the huge lump in my throat and opened up the envelope, pulling out the letter inside.

Dear Kyle,

My sweet, sweet love of my life. If you are reading this, that means that I am gone. But I am really not gone. I am watching over you right now as you read this letter. Standing right next to you in the spot where we first made love. That was honestly the best night of my life. I wouldn't have wanted it to go any other way. I am so glad that I have met you and fell in love with you. But Kyle, You have to promise me something. Even though I am gone, it does not mean that you can not love someone else. I want you to fall in love again. To find that special someone again. I know you are hurting so much right now because I am gone, but I can promise you that I am not hurting no more. I am not in pain at all. I am finally at my peace and resting.

I want you to do what you told me. Have a big family, marry, and have woods in your back yard so you can take long walks with your family.

I want you to have a big family like we wanted. A husband that you dear completely. Like how much you deared me.... But even more so.

If it wasn't for me staying in your basement like a creeper we would never have gotten the chance to fall in love.

So do me one thing and find that special guy again. I will be watching over you every step of the way.

On the good dates, the bad dates and the most terrible dates ever. Even on your wedding day, I will be standing right next to you smiling at your groom and you.

I promise I will be watching over you.

Love, Dylan

P.S. I will always love you more

Tears were falling down my face once again. I chuckled and said out loud, "You know damn right that I love you more."

I wiped my tears and took a deep breath of this air before going back to my car and hitting the road.

I put Dylan's letter in the sun visor and took off.

"I will always love you Dylan." I said.
