"I-I l-love you, R-Richie. And don't s-say that, you're everything to me. You're all I w-want, you're all I'm ever g-going to need"
                          
He smiled with pain in his eyes as he pulled me close and kissed my lips. Every time we pulled away, he pulled me in for more and more.
                          
"I love you, more than you'll ever know" he said softly.
                          
"I already know"
                          
And when he grasped my hand, I didn't want to let go.
                          
"Goodbye, Richie"
                          
"Bye, Eds"

Sad chapter because I'm depressed but I'm starting to feel a little better after a good cry and time with friends.
                          
I woke up to amazing supportive comments and you don't know how much that warms my heart.
                          
I wasn't fishing for attention or pity, but I love and appreciate all who took the time to offer their condolences. You are my family, and I love all of you. Thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot.
                          
Also, what the hell, when did I get 300 followers and 26K reads?? I don't deserve it but thank you, it means the world to me ♥♥
