“Hey.” u whisper.
“Hey, I’m not dead yet there’s no need to be quiet.” He jokes from his hospital bed.
“But…”
“The only butt I want remember is yours.” He grins.
u can’t help but smile. He was his usual self.
“You ok?”
“Well, yeah I guess. The only problem is they won’t let me have a fuckin bier once in awhile.”
u shake your head and laugh.
“Because it’s a hospital, Dip-Wad.”
“Who u calling Dip-Wad, Dip-Wad? I think bier is the best medicine,” he grins as he leans back further into his pillow. He looks u in the eye. “Hey, I know I’m gonna go soon. I don’t want u to see. That would break my heart.” He says quietly. “So give me a kiss, and why don’t u head on out?”
u shake your head, eyes watering. “No.” u whisper.
“Yes.” He says. “Come on, give me a kiss and go.” He squeezes your hand.
The tears pouring, u lean over and give him one last long kiss.
“Hey,” he whispers softly, wiping away the tears with his thumb. “I’m going to be fine. You’re going to fine. I love you. u were the best thing that ever happened to me.”
u let go of his hand.
“Love you.” u whisper.
And u walk out the door.
And never look back.
