Summary
The gun felt cool in his hand, heavy, full of promises. It could free him. One pull, one second and he would finally be gone, the suffering would be gone.
He went back to the armchair and reclined in it. He could feel the tears coming back at the corner of his eyes.
"A rotten leg's got to come off, eh?"
He fired.Izzy takes a different path after he fails to kill himself. Slowly but surely, he will learn to trust, love, and make friends while rebuilding his life.

Summary
Izzy never called it macabre. Never said chin up, mate, this’ll pass. Never told Edward to think of something nice instead or promised him that things would look better tomorrow. He just stayed close: a steady, solid weight. And when Edward couldn’t speak, couldn’t move, couldn’t do much of anything at all, Izzy read.
