    Summary

    Neil can feel the letter in his pocket, heavy with lead dragging him down. It’s a death sentence disguised like a gift.
    Out of all of the ways he thought he would go, this wasn’t one of them; a gun in hand, a bullet in his chest. Maybe this is his merciful end, maybe he should be grateful. After years of relentless running, fear eating him from the inside out, he’s been offered an easy way out.
    Andrew will wake soon, the slow trickle of a city waking dragging him from fitful sleep. Neil will have to look at his sleep smudged face, eyes soft in the early hours of the day, and tell him. He’ll show him the rumpled letter, his name marked on it in blood red ink.
    He’s had the letter for weeks; he’s been counting down the days, a bomb armed to blow. He doesn’t know how to tell Andrew, he doesn’t know how to prepare himself for the look on his face, crestfallen and utterly devastated and angry. He doesn’t want to see the slow dawning of realization take over his face, a storm of anguish, the knowledge that he’s going to lose Neil for good.
    In the end, it wasn’t the running that got him, it was the staying.
