I wake up the next morning, remembering the night before.
I had taken him to the hospital, dead in my arms.
They couldn't do anything.
His mum cried at the sight of him, blaming me.
I know it was my fault, I just didn't need to be reminded.
A letter arrives in the Mail.
My name in squiggly writing on the front.
I open it.
It's from Ace.
Hey babe,
I miss you already, even though that's impossible to believe.
You made me happy, made me forget.
I loved you, that's why I told you I would never stop.
I'm gone now, you know that. I hope you move on, as much as it will be hard.
Well, you're here to take me on a surprise date now.
Yours truly and forever,
Ace
