"How often do you see hio to?" I looked up at Blake "Are you there every time?"

"Will, I love you Please just--"

I opened my eyes "No No, Alex"

I turned to walk away, but Lex grabbed my arm

"Will, please!"

I turned and looked into her beautiful blue eyes as I felt the tears building in uess I should have asked you to make the same promise to me, Alex"

I heard a knock on my bedroom door, and I flew up out of bed I threw open the door, hoping to see Will
