Mateo Torrez
8:41 pm
I wake up feeling invincible. I don't check the time because I don't want anything to shatter my survivor spirit. In my head, I'm already in another day. I have beat Death-Cast's prediction, the first person in history to do so. I kiss Rufus's forehead, and watch him rest. Nervous, I reach for his heart, and I'm relieved it is still beating: he's invincible too.
A cool breeze washes over me as I look around the darkened room.For a moment I ponder leaving our little island and maybe making a cup of tea. But after a while trying to find my glasses in the dark blurry mess that is my room,I give up.It's probably for the best,Rufus would kill me himself if he caught me leaving our safe island.I climb over Rufus and lay next to him.Watching as his chest slowly rises and falls.He looks so peaceful like this.My eyes begin to flutter shut as I fall asleep with a big smile next to the boy I love.
My last friend.
