"It's not your fault Tom," I say "It was me. Overreacting so stupidly about you and your girlfriend,I shouldn't of,"
"Okay," he says,squeezing my hand "I'll never leave you. Ever. I don't care where we are,I'll be with you,we can be friends who live together,read together,study together, and someday friends who stood up next to their other friend and vowed to be friends forever,"
"You're too sweet,you see yourself in the future?"
"Yeah. Of course,"
"What's it like?"
"I don't know everything but I imagine me and my wife sitting down,I don't know maybe eating dinner,which I made. Cuz I don't wanna be lazy and then my two kids come racing down the stairs-A girl and a boy,I don't know the names maybe for the girl something like Anna,Kaya,Mary or Alex and for the boy something like Will,Josh or Mike,I don't know but then we sit and eat then just cuddle up on the sofa and watch a film,which we all love. Then after my kids would just fall asleep and curled up into my lap and so would my wife then I'd just put a blanket around them and just think how lucky I am."
"That's so perfect,this wife.. What does she look like?"
"I don't know. I don't know her face,all I know is that she's nice,and I want a history,do you have one,and future imagines?"
"The future is something which may not even come,but if it does I want someone I can trust. And that doesn't come very often,someone I know is right,"
"Can I come in?" A voice asks,for a moment I think it's the doctor but then see it's Alex,holding a large bouquet of coloured flowers "Here," he passes them to me "Do you want me to put it in a vase?"
"Yeah. Thanks," I say.
There is one on the table next to me.
"How are you feeling?" He asks me.
"Better," I say "Still a little tired,"
"Sup?" Will asks as he enters the room,Blake behind him as they both hug me. "We gotta go now,look it's been great. Call me,ask Dylan for my number we need to get together sometime,all of us watch a movie and go out bowling,it'll be sick!"
"Sounds great,thanks for everything,"

I was happy I was gonna see them again,I mean you can't just throw people like that away. There my friends,that was something I hadn't had much experience of.
Thomas went home after a while,his dad picked him up. I sit alone watching The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air on the small TV. That's when I see a jacket,Thomas' dumped on the floor.
I put it on my lap and can't help but smell it,I'm not weird but it smells good,comforting. That's when something falls out the pocket,a piece of paper,I open it up to see it's his writing...
"Emma,
I'm never that far
No matter where you are
Believe it
We can make it come true
We'll do it our way
No matter what they say
'Cause no one's gonna do it for you-ooh-ooh, yeah
But I-I-I-I, I'll never say never
As long as we keep it together-er-er-oh
If you're living a dream
And you know what I mean
Then you can't let 'em change your mind
It's the life that we choose
And we still break the rules
But it's all gonna be just fine
And what we'll all need is just to make believe
Yeah, everything begins when you do
Just gotta let go
'Cause you're original
And no one else can do it like you-ooh-ooh, yeah
But I-I-I-I, I'll never say never,
As long as we keep it together-er-er-oh
If you're living a dream
And you know what I mean
Then you can't let 'em change your mind
It's the life that we choose
And we still break the rules
But it's all gonna be just fine (just fine)
Yeah, we're all gonna be just fine
Just fine
And if you're just misunderstood
Just take your life with the good or bad
It's the times we've had
Yeah, we're free
If you're living a dream
And you know what I mean
Then you can't let 'em change your mind
It's the life that we choose
And we still break the rules
But it's all gonna be just fine
Just fine
If you're living a dream
And you know what I mean
Then you can't let 'em change your mind
It's the life that we choose
And we still break the rules
But it's all gonna be just fine (just fine)
Yeah, we're all gonna be just fine
You and me, we're gonna be just fine
Hummmmmmm"

He wrote that for me.
