If you love somebody - TMR - oneshot

Let them go

Something that's often said is 'if you love something, you have to let it go'.

But that didn't make any sense.

Why would you willingly give something you love away?

Why would you willingly part with someone you love?

Why would you willingly put yourself through that pain?

That's what's stupid.

Even when it's not willingly, shouldn't you try everything in your power to make sure someone you love doesn't leave?

You should refuse to let them go.

That's what Thomas did.

He refused to let them go, despite what everyone tried to tell him.

Despite what they would have wanted.

He never agreed to the whole 'loving means letting go' bullshit.

He just wanted to have something to love, as that had been very rare for him. 

And when he finally finds it, it's gone.

Taken.

Leaving him like everything else.

So maybe he shouldn't love, if the world follows the rule of loving and letting go.

Maybe he shouldn't try to hold on, when eventually he will have to let go.

Maybe he  should just do what everyone had told him to do.

Let go.

Let them go.

Or maybe...he could join them.

Maybe he shouldn't have to let them go.

But that wouldn't be fair. 

Not to them.

He has what they don't.

What he doesn't.

He shouldn't give that away so easily.

But he wanted to. He wanted to so bad.

But he knows he can't have that satisfaction. 

He knows he should suffer without them. 

That's what he deserves for killing them in the first place.

So he had to let them go.

Like he should have done.

Because everyone else did it.

So why can't he?

Why was he any different?

Everyone had been trying for months to get him to let them go, saying that stupid phrase over and over.

"Let them go, It's better for everyone."

"When you love somebody, it's best to let them go. It's what they would have wanted."

"Stop being stubborn and let them go."

"Get over it."

"It happened months go, move on."

"Let them go."

"Let them go."

"Let. Them. Go."

But he couldn't.

No matter how hard he tried.

He needed to...

To what?

To forget about them?

How could you forget something so important?

To move on, find a new best friend, new brothers and sisters, a new lover?

Is that what he needed to do?

No.

He wouldn't do that.

He couldn't.

He didn't want to.

So he didn't.

He wouldn't. Ever.

He would never let them go. 

"If you love someone, let them go," is bullshit.

Never let them go.
