New story: Goodbye my Lover

Goodbye my lover

Hey, guys! I’m back with a new story!! Hope you all enjoy!!



Chapter 1


I gigged slightly as my lover planted kisses all over my face. “Stop it, baby. We’ll have plenty of time to do that, but first, you need to keep your eyes on the road.” I pointed to where the red light used to be and now it’s green.


He pouted, but reluctantly got off of me and started to drive. I sighed. Life is good. Chester and I have been together for three months now. We’re almost done with our new album, which is supposed to be released by sometime this week, and we’re about to go on tour.


I was just about to turn on the radio when I heard Chester scream. I quickly turned to him and was about to ask what was wrong when I froze. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a SUV. A big, black SUV that is heading straight for us. I couldn't’t move. I couldn’t breathe. It happened all in slow motion. Chester gripped the steering wheel so tightly I thought it would break. He tried to turn a different way but it was no use. The SUV slammed into us like a ton of bricks.

My head was fuzzy as I tried to stand up but soon found out that I couldn’t. I looked around, trying to figure out what happened to me. The last thing I remembered was driving in the car with Chester and then hearing him scream.


I felt like a wave had hit me when the memory came crashing back to me. I whipped around, trying to find Chester and make sure that he’s alright. My breath caught in my throat when I saw a limp body lying on the side of the road; covered in blood.


My first instinct was to run to him and make sure that he was alright, but my body wouldn’t let me. It was like I had no control over my body. All I could do was stare at Chester’s bloody body in shock. How did this happen? Why did this happen? Endless amounts of questions were flooding my brain while I looked at Chester with tears in my eyes.


Finally, I could stare at him no longer and forced my frozen body to move towards him. To my horror, he had taken more damage then imaginable. His shirt was bloody from the neck down; his jeans had turned a shade of red from all the blood on them. His forehead had gash right above his eyebrow and a pole was lodged in his ribcage. I had never seen a sight so horrifying and I hope to never see it again.

I ignored the burning and twisting metal in the background and focused my attention on Chester. How could this happen? Why did this happen? I felt like I was in a protective bubble. I felt like I was protected from the outside world. But that bubble shattered when the car hit. It was almost too surreal to believe it. One minute I’m having the time of my life with the one that I love and the next I’m laying on hot pavement while watching the life ebb from my lover’s body.

Choking back a sob, I quietly spoke to him. “Chester?” my voice was so broken, so fragile, that I thought it was going to break at any moment. “I have to call for help.” I quickly got my phone out and was about to dial 911 when a hoarse voice stopped me.

“M-mike, no.”


I looked down to see Chester's eyes cracked open and staring at me with pain flowing in his eyes. “Chester! Oh my god, I thought I lost you!” Tears of joy ran down my face, knowing that he was awake and talking to me. He's going to be ok. I thought happily to myself, he has to be.

I then realized that I never called 911 because Chester woke up. I started dialing the number when Chester's voice stopped me.

“Don't do it.” he started coughing up blood.

“Chester, if I don't call for help then you'll die!”

“It's too late for me. Don't call.”

I stared at him in shock. Why did he not want to live? Didn't he want to spend the rest of his life with me? What about the band? What about his kids? “Chaz, why are you doing this? What about the band? Your hopes and dreams? Are you just going to throw that away?”

Chester looked up at me with tears in his eyes. “It's time for me to go. I can feel my life slipping away from me.”

I tried to hold back the avalanche of liquid that threatened to swallow me up but it came, crashing down and burying everything in it's path. "Chester you can't go. What about me?what about our future together?"

Chester coughed up a large amount of liquid before responding. "There is no future Mike. I want there to be one, so badly, but there isn't. Life is unfair."

"Yeah," I agreed while salt water dripped from my eyes. "Life is unfair."

Chester cringed in pain as he took a shaky breath in that could be his last. "Goodbye Mike." he whispered as his eyelids became too much to hold up any longer.

"No, please stay! You can't go Mike! I won't let you!" I wrapped my arms around Chester's body and insane as this sounds, try to hold his spirit inside of him. Of course I was doing nothing but probably making this much harder for him to breathe. But I had to try.

"Mike." The wind sang my name to me as I looked down and saw Chester's closed eyes. "No!" I cried out angrily, feeling Chester's icy wrists while hot liquid burned my eyes. "This can't be, it just can't." I sobbed out angrily, letting my emotions get the better of me as I shouted every cuss word imaginable. The last piece of hot water fell gracefully down my already soaked cheek and just as it was about to drop to the concrete below, a gust of wind caught the water like it was a feather and flicked it off my face. I knew that that was Chester, telling me to be strong.

I looked up at the sky with a smile on my face, knowing that he may be dead, but our love for each other will never die.

End
