Thank you Jackie for volunteering to help me edit when I thought my eyes were going to start bleeding. It’s that much better now because of you.

Prologue
The End
We met by complete chance me being in the right place at the right time I suppose. The moment I saw her I knew she was special, one of a kind. I also knew that our paths would be intertwined, I just wasn’t exactly sure how at the time. I can honestly say that I had never seen anyone like her in my entire twenty-two years of life, and I am sure I never would either.
We had met years ago on Halloween night. There was a huge party at an old abandoned house in my town. I was only sixteen when we met but it wasn’t till later on that we became close. It took me a long time to get her to warm up to me, I was persistent though.
I just couldn’t get her out of my mind once I saw her.
It actually took me a few weeks before I got up the courage to try and find her to talk to her.
There really wasn’t anyone who I could talk to about my particular situation. My best friend Mike was the only one who I got up the nerve to tell, but he just thought I was crazy. We hung out here and there after I told him but he eventually just stopped coming around. He just couldn’t understand no matter how many times I tried to explain it to him. I was even going to have her talk to him but he never agreed to come over. I tried to stay friends with him. I’d call and text, send an email or two but eventually he even stopped answering those and so my best friend for nearly half my life was gone.
Losing Mike as a friend was upsetting, one of the worst things I’ve ever had to deal with. She was there for me though, even when no one else was. She listened when no one else did, cared when it seemed that no other soul did. It was then that I knew I was in love with her. It was at that moment that I knew I was in love with a spirit and that I had to be with her.
That is why I made my decision to do what I did. I wanted to control when I went out so I could be with the one I love. It wasn’t because of my family or my now lack of friends. I know deep down that if I ever really needed Mike he’d be there. It was solely to be with the one I love. I assure you that I am happy and in a good place. Please don’t be sad for me. This was my choice and who knows maybe you’ll see me around.
