Thanks so much to everyone who reviewed on the first chapter! I hope you guys like this chapter. I think this is the last chapter, but I'm not totally sure yet.

In a way, I'm glad you did what you did Rigby. I can't imagine being apart from you either.

Mordecai held Rigby to his chest as he turned his back to the trampoline and stretched out his legs.

Rigby whimpered in his sleep and Mordecai hugged him tighter in response.

Mordecai continued to rub the raccoon's back for a few minutes before Rigby stirred.

Rigby opened his eyes and found himself held against Mordecai's chest.

He started to push away when a hand pulled him back against the chest.

"Relax, dude. You're fine," Mordecai said as Rigby looked up at him.

Rigby glanced back at the trampoline where his headphones and phone lay.

He bit his lip before looking back up at Mordecai. "So, uh, what's up?"

"I listened to the song. I'm worried about you, dude," Mordecai said as Rigby's eyed widened.

Rigby lowered his eyes and looked at the floor. "I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me."

Mordecai frowned as he heard the raccoon's response. "You're not fine, Rigby. I can't help you unless you let me know what's going on."

Rigby shook his head and Mordecai sighed and gently grabbed his friend's chin.

He tilted Rigby's chin up and looked in his eyes.

"I want to help you and I hate seeing you upset. Will you tell me what's bothering you?" he said softly as he searched Rigby's eyes.

Rigby nodded after a few moments and Mordecai let go of his chin.

Rigby took a breath before speaking. "I just still feel bad about what I did," he said quietly.

"We all make mistakes and I was upset about it at first, but I realized work isn't everything."

"I took away your future because I was selfish and now you're stuck here. I ruined your life," Rigby said, tears shimmering in his eyes.

"That's where you're wrong, Rigby. Like I've already said, you didn't ruin my life. I got over it a long time ago."

The tears started falling from Rigby's eyes. "But it's not okay! You could have done what you wanted with your life, but I had to screw it all up!"

Mordecai pulled Rigby closer and hugged him. "It is okay, dude. I forgave you a while ago when I realized where you were coming from."

Rigby looked up at Mordecai. "How could you forgive me after what I did?" he said, his voice breaking.

Mordecai smiled lightly down at Rigby as he wiped away his tears. "I realized friendship is more important than work."

Rigby's lip trembled as he wrapped his arms around Mordecai and sobbed softly.

"Shh, it's okay, Rigby. Shh," Mordecai said as he rocked back and forth slightly.

Mordecai continued rocking until Rigby's crying lessened.

"Rigby," Mordecai said as Rigby looked up at him.

Rigby gazed into the bird's eyes to let him know he was listening.

"Can you forgive me for being so hard on you?"

Rigby blinked in surprise before giving a smile and a nod.

Mordecai beamed as he hugged Rigby close.

You're my best friend and I'll always be here. Nothing will ever change that.
