 ** Here's the final part for all you beautiful people who read/commented and/or voted.. I hope you like it!**

Michael got to the hospital the next day completely traumatised. Melissa had died talking to him. He could feel her soul leaving this world. That’s why he had called her. He heard the continuous beep on the other side and broke down both mentally and emotionally. He hadn’t had a chance to see her. She had died before he had a chance to kiss her one last time.

“Michael” Melanie called waving him over. He walked over towards the twins and was embraced in a tight hug. He felt like a zombie. He was numb everywhere, he felt like a large part of him had died.

“Are you okay?” Melanie asked. Michael looked down at her then back up into the room that Melissa died in. He could just feel that this was where she was when she passed away.

“Melissa told us to give you this” Charlotte said taking out an envelope and gaining Michael’s full attention. He took it and looked at it. “She also told us to tell you that she wanted to be cremated and for you to spread her ashes in Paris so that you could keep your promise.” She said sobbing a little before grabbing Melanie’s hand. They left him alone to go to the bathroom, crying at the loss of their friend.

A soft sob escaped Michael’s lips as he thought of his promise to take her to Paris.  He inhaled the envelope that smelled like vanilla and wild berries, what Melissa always smelled like, and sat down. Tears escaped his eyes as he read the letter.

My lovely Michael…

Find Me Here

Speak To Me

I want to feel you

I need to hear you

You are the light

That's leading me

To the place where I find peace again.

You are the strength that keeps me walking.

You are the hope that keeps me trusting.

You are the light to my soul.

You are my purpose... You're everything.

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.

You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.

You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.

Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Cause you're all I want, you're all I need

You're everything, everything

You're all I want your all I need

You're everything, everything.

You're all I want you're all I need.

You're everything, everything

You're all I want, you're all I need, you're everything, everything.

And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this? 

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this? 

I love you so much.

Forever and Always,

Melissa.

He smiled understanding what she meant. She knew that he would be the only one to understand this letter. Her locket fell from the envelope. He opened it and smiled. It was a miniature version of the picture she had managed to take of them during their tickle war, on one side, and I’ll love you forever and always engraved on the other side. 

Melanie and Charlotte came back and sat next to him. They looked at the letter, curiousity getting the better of them and looked up at Michael confused.

“What is that?” They asked.

“The lyrics to Everything by Lifehouse” he smiled looking into the room Melissa was last in. He could see her fading ghost smiling at him mouthing the words ‘I love you’. “I love you too” he mouthed back watching her disappear.
