[Recorded; His voice is somewhat lighthearted, but it's obviously broken.]

Hey. You forgot something when you left. I'll hold onto it for you... But seriously. You're such a creeper. There are pictures on this phone of me I never even knew you took. And honestly. Keeping all my voicemails? Sora was right about you. Freak.

What was that line about my birthday, huh? I don't have one, you know that. But I guess I shouldn't argue. You wouldn't have taken no for an answer.

There's something I want you to know. I was so worked up to get to tell you my New Year's Resolution, and you never even got to hear it... so I'm saying it now.

It was kind of stupid on some levels, because it was... sort of, to be a little more like you. I resolved to live each day to the fullest, and I know I've already slipped up. But it's a big change. I'm going to spend more time throwing caution to the wind, and doing what my heart tells me to, not what my mind says is appropriate.

[The voice gets a little sadder here.]

And now... I think I'll give you some truth of my own.

I wish you'd never left. I wish I could have spent more time with you. You were my first everything. I miss you more than I've ever missed anyone. It's hard to breathe when I think about you, and I guess that's why I've been so delirious. Lack of oxygen can do that to you, right?

[He's on the verge of tears now. His voice breaks in almost every sentence, and he's breathing a little harder.]

I know you want me to keep going, because other people depend on me. You think I can find someone else, too, I bet. [There's a pause where he can't talk for a moment.] But I won't. I'll keep living, and I'll pick up the pieces. But I'm taking them with me. I'm living on for you and only for you.

Just because you left doesn't mean you're gone. And I'll never let you go.

[The voice clip ends, but then a second one is afterward. The voice in this one sounds like it was crying for a minute or two, but it's still strong.]

P.S.... I know you already knew it... but I really did, a-and always will love you... Axel.

[Recordings: End.]
