S: tony...

*grabs his hand*

look at me.

.

T: *looks into his eyes for a moment with his swollen and teary eyes*

.

S: i’m tired... *frowns*

.

T: *finally sees the pain he’s feeling inside through his eyes and just doesn’t want to see him suffer from it anymore* *holds back his tears*

.

S: it’s late now.. *smiles painfully*

it’s time to sleep..

.

T: *lets a tear escape from his eyes, knowing what stephen actually means* *nods*

.

S: *smiles and rests his head on tony’s shoulder*

Just know that i feel grateful you’re letting me be happy on my birthday.. You did nothing wrong today.

Today..

*pauses&looks up at tony*

Today was the most glorious day of my life. Thank you for that..

And for the other days that you chose to spend with me.. no matter what you’ll get through..

Always remember that i’ve never regret spending any of those days by your side..

.

“and if you should happen to remember that

it’s the anniversary of my birth..

Remember that you were loved by me...

And that you made my life a happy one..

And there’s no tragedy in that.”

.

*stephen smiles and hugs tony*

*sheds a tear while slowly closing his eyes*

Goodnight, tony..

.

T: goodnight, stephen..

*releases the tears that have been hiding behind his eyes*

*kisses stephen’s forehead, watching the grace of his beautiful face while he’s falling asleep peacefully on his shoulder*

.

*notices that stephen’s breath is getting slower and slower and suddenly feels like he’s the only one breathing in the quiet bedroom*

Steph...?

.

*checks his pulse and hugs him tighter than he ever did afterwards, drowning in his own tears after finding out the love of his life has become a goner in his own arms and getting haunted by his beautiful last words*

Thank you for ever existing in my miserable life, stephen..

I will always.. always.. love you..

*kisses stephen’s cold cheek with tears running down his face*
