Seperation (A minti story)
I walk hand in hand with him. Through the greenest of fields and the most desolate plains..I am with him. Always. We've been through the most beautiful times a person can witness...and through some of the worst only the darkest recesses of the mind can imagine. Love has been our sword and shield. We always walk together, him and I. Huh...Starting to think that may have not been the greatest of ideas. I just remembered....Jon's party. Oh, how we laughed, danced, drank..all that. The fun others had.. the emotions running through their minds..paled in comparison to those emanating from my mate and I. It was almost palpable. The smiles on our faces were genuine- a sight not seen much these days- because of each other. The love was so enormous, it felt as if we could burst..from only half of the love we felt! We stood there, staring at each other...oh, sure..and odd sight to some. Did we care? Nope!. All that existed in the world to us..was each other. Jon came to us...He was just...wow, he was out of it *chuckles*. Someone must have spiked the punch...to be funny..huh..a joke, was it? Well, either way, the party was over and my mate and I left; walking, as we would do. We held hands, kissed, hugged..everything...as we walked to our house. We moved in together, you see. After high school my mate and I were still in love..after the full 4 years even! We decided on graduation to live together..little did he know..my plans were bigger than that. Anyway...we were walking...then..it happened. Oh how i wish it hadn't..more than you know. We heard a loud noise..like a fast approaching car. We looked back..and one was speeding towards us. My mate, thinking selflessly as he would often do; pushed me out of the way. I was on the right side of us, you see; closer to the road. I just wish my mate was a little more selfish sometimes... The care swerved..and..hit..my mate. It quickly sped off, of course. I watched the car speed off...It was Jon's car. I quickly ran into the street; tears streaming down my face as i looked at my mate..Even now..beautiful. I did the typical "no, not now! it's too early" thing as he lay dying in my arms. I could just see his light fading..I heard him utter something..i knew what it was right away. I saw how close he was to that eternal rest..I reached into my pocket. I pulled out a simple, silver band...He liked things simple. I slid it onto his finger as i saw his light fully fade away. I cried heavily and asked: "will you marry me?" With his very last breath..he said: "i love you". I stood up..and walked into the darkness....
