He grips onto my cold hand, his grip getting tighter as he tries to keep in the tears.

"It's okay." I tell him. "You don't have to hold it in. No one else is here."

That's it.

He finally breaks.

He's crying. I hold him tight into a hug but no words can come out of my mouth.

"I feel guilty for breathing this air without her." He mumbles.

"I feel that way too. Honestly."

We break away from contact. His eyes reach deep into my soul, looking for that relation as to what he has said. His rosy cheeks from the cold and crying along with his eyelashes that have been stuck together from the tears make the situation feel very real. My eyes begin to flood. I run my fingers through his messy dark hair, our eyes still fixated on the others.

He says:

"I feel like I should just end it all."
