I stood by myself on the grass, looking at the small metal plaque that marked Clay’s grave. Hunter stayed with the car, allowing me some time alone. I knew he had no desire to be here.

When I’d been here for Clay’s funeral, I was in complete shock, still unable to properly know what I was feeling. I hadn’t cried a single tear—my emotions locked so tightly inside myself. Today I felt only sorrow over a lost friendship and regret for the relationship we could’ve had if things hadn’t gotten weird. We’d planned to go to college and cross things off our bucket list together. I realized now, that even though we were making plans, we’d been seeing two different futures. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined an ending like this.

I stepped forward and placed the bundle of yellow roses next to the plaque with his name on it. “Yellow roses mean friendship, Clay,” I spoke. “That’s how I choose to remember you—as my friend. I want you to know I miss talking and laughing with you. I’m not sure why things had to happen the way they did, but if you want my forgiveness, you have it. I hope you’re at peace now too.”

It felt as if a giant burden was lifting from me, and I turned and walked away, knowing the door was closed. I’d never come to see him again.
