"I told you my name...”

"Matt call the police, I'm fucking sick of this shit.・ May quickly rose, watching as the man who had been sitting alone on one of the sofa's dug for his phone. She could feel all the fear in her body running up her inside, the whiskey trying to scorch back up her throat.

"No please no! I'm not lieing please!・ She was frantic, her hands waving crazily as she tried to stop him. She didn't want to be locked up, she didn't want to be called crazy. I can prove it, I can!・ Her words were desperate, as was she.

"Prove what? That you're some crazy fuck!”

"Brian calm down.”

"No Matt, I will not calm the fuck down.・ Brian rose from the couch, turning the venom in his words to her. 擢ucking crazed assholes who don't understand how much this hurts us. You think you can make up fabricated ghost stories about Jimmy and expect us to believe you! WELL WE DON'T. He was my best friend. MY FUCKING BROTHER. How dare you come in here talking this shit like you knew him...・ He slammed the bottle of whiskey down on the table, making May jump.

"Jimmy...・ The name slipped from her lips in a whisper so soft. Her eyes closed tight her mind running through memory after memory. So bright, so colorful. Him, the flowers, the house, the days, the nights, the kisses, the hugs, the touches... she brushed over it all in a matter of seconds every inch of her going numb as she broke the resolve on the inside.

She opened her eyes up to angry blood shot stares. And she ran. She ran from them, she ran from the truth that was barreling out of her. It seemed so real, so fictional she couldn't handle it. So much...

Her feet carried her from the building, eyes blurring with tears as she tried not to stumble. But she did stumble, she tripped over the curb sending her sprawling into the road, into the car.

"Jimmy?・ Her eyes popped open, the bright light of the world a reminder of her existence. She squinted, picking herself up off the ground she had been stationary on. The car was stopped in front of her, the frantic driver crawling from the seat.

"OH MY GOD ARE YOU ALRIGHT?・ The woman's heels clanked on the cement ground as she ran around the front of the car, kneels at May's feet. It only took a second for May's eyes to drop to the ground where she had just been. She looked down at the girl on the pavement, bloody and bruised.

She was gasping for air, blood pooling from her lungs as she shook.

"MATT" The voice yelled from where May had just come from, the three men she had been running from streaking across the parking lot to the accident. May staggered back, hoping to run away from this if they noticed her, but they didn't.

She furrowed her brows, glancing back down at the girl on the ground.

"Hey beautiful."・ His voice was no longer just a whisper. She swiveled, looking into the eyes that had been haunting her night and day. The eyes that she craved to know.

And now she knew.

His hand carefully reached out, caressing her cheek, so warm to the touch. She took the few steps forward, collapsing into his arms as he pulled her as close as possible. 的've been waiting for you to remember.”

"Oh my god Matt, I think she's... no...・ May glanced back over her shoulder at the pain in the woman's voice, the sobs so distant. The girl on the pavement took one last stuttering breath before she stopped moving all together. The woman dangling over her gasped for air, tears sliding down her cheeks as she tried to find a pulse in the blood soaked neck.

A silence covered them all. May watched transfixed as their mouthes moved, as Brian pulled out a cell phone and dialed who she assumed was the police. As Matt picked up Val and folded her into an embrace, as Zack dropped to his necks next to the girl on the pavement, eyes searching some kind of truth behind it all.

"Will they be ok Jimmy?" Her voice breathed easily over the chaos that should have been there, police cars zooming in around them, no noise to their tires and sirens. It was so surreal.

"Yeah. They'll be fine. Trust me." His voice wavered as he watched along side her, his arms tightening around her. She turned her eyes back to him, giving him a small smile before leaning up and kissing him softly on the lips. He reacted after a second, fresh tears she had never thought she would see in his crystal ocean blue eyes. She kissed them away as he had done for her so long ago and he chuckled.

"Am I dead now Jimmy?" She wasn't sure but she sort of knew the girl on the road was her. Covered in blood, covered in bruises and so much pain. She didn't have to look back to know that her body was there, lost in the pain's of the world. Jimmy's smile remained happy as he chuckled even more, throwing his head back in a gleeful laugh before giving her his dazzling smile.

"No dear. You're alive, with me... forever.”
