74 years old

"Time for bed," Tyler's favorite nurse's cheery voice rang out.

She wheeled Tyler's oxygen tank as he crawled into bed.

"Where's Josh?" his quiet voice rang out.

"He's with Nurse Samantha right now."

"Is he coming to bed?"

The nurse, Anna, smiled knowingly. "He'll be here shortly. Goodnight, Mr. Dun."

"Goodnight."

The nurse left the room, leaving Tyler in total darkness. He fought the demand for sleep, waiting for Josh to arrive. A few minutes later, the door opened again, letting light flood into the room.

"Already in bed?" Josh teased, walking in with Nurse Samantha behind him.

"Where were you?"

The nurse flicked on the lamp beside the bed, so Tyler could clearly see the bouquet of pink flowers Josh was holding.

"Oh, Josh, they're beautiful," Tyler gushed, slightly sitting up in bed.

"Are you too tired to dance with me?"

"There's no music!"

Josh glanced at the nurse, who pulled out her phone. She tapped around on it before their song started playing through the speakers. The same song they listened to under the stars all those years ago. Tyler smiled, holding out a hand for Josh who helped him out of bed.

The two slow danced to the song, not being able to move much due to the restriction of Tyler's oxygen tank.

"Say you won't let go..."

"I love you, sweetie," Josh spoke into Tyler's ear.

"I love you too."

"I wanna live with you, even when we're ghosts..."

"I'm gonna love you til my lungs give out," Tyler sang along, nodding towards his oxygen tank, making Josh chuckle.

"I promise til death we part, like in our vows," Josh sang back, caressing Tyler's cheek with the back of his hand.

When the song ended, Nurse Samantha clapped, laughing as the couple bowed for her. She helped Tyler into bed as Josh climbed in next to him.

"Goodnight, you two. Don't go to crazy."

"No promises," Josh joked, a laugh spilling from Tyler's faded lips.

"Did you like it?" the older asked hopefully, stroking his husband's hair.

"I loved it, Josh. I love you."

"I love you too."

"I feel odd."

"Odd?" Josh questioned, gazing into Tyler's chocolate brown eyes that never seemed to age.

"I don't know. I can't explain it, really. I just think tonight's the night."

"Tonight? Why's that?"

"Just that gut feeling."

"Well if that's the case, let me go to sleep so the Lord can finally take me."

"Josh!" Tyler laughed, playfully smacking his shoulder.

"I'm kidding!"

"I don't want to die," Tyler suddenly sighed, changing the mood in the atmosphere.

"Baby, honey, sweetie, how many times must I tell you this? It'll be okay."

Tyler cracked a smile before going back to serious. "Just... What if there's nothing? What if we're just gone after death?"

"Stop, Tyler. You know we'll be in Heaven."

The younger sighed, nuzzling his way into Josh's arms. He inhaled his scent, wanting to stay like this forever. Warm and safe, with Josh, forever.

"Goodnight, Joshie."

"Night, T."

Nurse Anna went to wake Josh and Tyler the next morning.

"Josh, Tyler, rise and shine!" she smiled, but quickly frowned when the couple didn't budge.

She approached them, gasping when she realized they were both cold to the touch. Tyler was locked between Josh's arms, serene looks on both their faces.

Anna quickly ran out of the room to get some help.

Tyler and Josh?

They couldn't be happier.

They were reunited with their family that had passed on.

They all reunited at the pearly gates, each of them young again.

Josh latched onto Tyler's hand, unbelievable joy surging throughout him. He was at bliss, in Heaven, with his eternal husband and family.

"I was right," he grinned at the brunette.

"About what?"

"You can't get rid of me. We're together forever."

"You were always right," Tyler laughed, placing a kiss against his lover's lips which had grown soft again.

"I'll love you forever, Tyler."

"And I'll forever love you back."
