I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.677Please respect copyright.PENANAGiViwhXmF1
He's shaking underneath my grasp.677Please respect copyright.PENANA60AqzGrNA9
677Please respect copyright.PENANATMH3GZnzQL
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.677Please respect copyright.PENANApjbMplc91S
677Please respect copyright.PENANAYibda5iMhd
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.677Please respect copyright.PENANAuXwu3hVlfX
677Please respect copyright.PENANA9B6249OIuP
I smile bitterly.677Please respect copyright.PENANAoxXxnIqYkX
677Please respect copyright.PENANAKjqQoQJU1S
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.677Please respect copyright.PENANANqcYFaNWfF
677Please respect copyright.PENANAn93ybA3l7x
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.677Please respect copyright.PENANANqa99IDQ1L
677Please respect copyright.PENANAkE6v1Q2L12
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.677Please respect copyright.PENANAt04fNs5peK
677Please respect copyright.PENANAOdQ1TcyNqW
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."677Please respect copyright.PENANAToXpIMxt0N
677Please respect copyright.PENANAMIzlb5i2hV
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.677Please respect copyright.PENANAIfkfYxqjak
677Please respect copyright.PENANAI565Bny0PJ
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.677Please respect copyright.PENANA8k2J2Ca6vP
677Please respect copyright.PENANA6pcsmfYfZA
I allow myself to drop my calm charade and panic a little. Jere's forehead is beaded in sweat. The life in his eyes that once blazed brightly is now dark and sullen.677Please respect copyright.PENANAQkWpKvKOcM
677Please respect copyright.PENANAv8ofMK2K0A
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.677Please respect copyright.PENANAyioFyL7hSB
677Please respect copyright.PENANAjDWXXhKn68
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.677Please respect copyright.PENANAKmumKbXj8u
677Please respect copyright.PENANAca6R9BGMbq
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.677Please respect copyright.PENANA8W5DZIAQwa
677Please respect copyright.PENANAMDuabP2XHt
I must at all cost keep him awake.677Please respect copyright.PENANAX5jOQ1Z4IW
677Please respect copyright.PENANASeTNN0CaGb
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"677Please respect copyright.PENANAbGa1fFvocJ
677Please respect copyright.PENANAkMg1linEQQ
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.677Please respect copyright.PENANAeMj5HXuX8y
677Please respect copyright.PENANAvjofUSf83W
"Not that long baby I promise."677Please respect copyright.PENANAc1Oe2QyoF9
677Please respect copyright.PENANAhMrXeD8voJ
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.677Please respect copyright.PENANAfd01skr0g2
677Please respect copyright.PENANACpWpEYlBSd
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.677Please respect copyright.PENANA8x5Gg92m2v
677Please respect copyright.PENANActlDn5svEZ
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.677Please respect copyright.PENANAtQUSUaH5oj
677Please respect copyright.PENANAr9rty9NOUj
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.677Please respect copyright.PENANAKS1d4RwPdG
677Please respect copyright.PENANAZaJ63XYJ96
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.677Please respect copyright.PENANAmXgxQnwLaM
677Please respect copyright.PENANAUFQljAnlbd
I frown at him.677Please respect copyright.PENANAP0Udx60uqz
677Please respect copyright.PENANAuPLPkBGiPk
"Don't say that."677Please respect copyright.PENANAvw0vnCOTQZ
677Please respect copyright.PENANAFSRqrbioKa
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.677Please respect copyright.PENANAirILX4pfID
677Please respect copyright.PENANAUEQpLQlmuB
I gasp.677Please respect copyright.PENANAWI8VeuNQaf
677Please respect copyright.PENANAPeXC2SX0cx
"Jere stop!"677Please respect copyright.PENANAMdq3Rljlhf
677Please respect copyright.PENANAODyklRrqyJ
He goes on.677Please respect copyright.PENANAxUneooBjYQ
677Please respect copyright.PENANA7DdIwFDUKl
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.677Please respect copyright.PENANAmiTmxwidtz
677Please respect copyright.PENANAWk9Jkaez4H
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.677Please respect copyright.PENANAl3GGt91GUF
677Please respect copyright.PENANAwzRKQiYbdn
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"677Please respect copyright.PENANA1uHjghRuE2
677Please respect copyright.PENANArZQRBf8O9P
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.677Please respect copyright.PENANAappZkiLF3c
677Please respect copyright.PENANAbx1D60l0Oa
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.677Please respect copyright.PENANATEelezfgPG
677Please respect copyright.PENANAuelxZ5sCcz
"I won't."677Please respect copyright.PENANA3Z2Ws3aXOQ
677Please respect copyright.PENANAU7QUBFfmTz
He obeys, watching me soberly.677Please respect copyright.PENANAftJgCeBFvF
677Please respect copyright.PENANA14e5TI9N4t
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.677Please respect copyright.PENANAcgvLq581Uy
677Please respect copyright.PENANA4BrEPkrPoc
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.677Please respect copyright.PENANALEcQE5fh89
677Please respect copyright.PENANAzFnN5pSE81
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.677Please respect copyright.PENANAppOmdbNcaB
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.677Please respect copyright.PENANAt64qkeLQh6
677Please respect copyright.PENANApq7rlPSt7P
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.677Please respect copyright.PENANAkeEjvbp4EG
677Please respect copyright.PENANASSWsuPllln
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.677Please respect copyright.PENANA5OUTadqFba
677Please respect copyright.PENANANzXZmo5WHL
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"677Please respect copyright.PENANAVSVQBj8S5R
677Please respect copyright.PENANAqWA18zWA9U
He tries to nod but he can't.677Please respect copyright.PENANAPyyvBFNxf1
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.677Please respect copyright.PENANA6MRUPetkLX
677Please respect copyright.PENANAPC7vV1Mn5F
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.677Please respect copyright.PENANAbFPAIuQ048
677Please respect copyright.PENANAmuZjrDNYpz
He looks up into mine.677Please respect copyright.PENANAjCJzz8kbxu
677Please respect copyright.PENANAtaaWHFjlPW
"Don't leave me." He whispers.677Please respect copyright.PENANA78YP0LumRh
677Please respect copyright.PENANAzabYe7wfHO
"Stay awake." I tell him.677Please respect copyright.PENANAKl0a8VWkZg
677Please respect copyright.PENANAzxNmZft7iu
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.677Please respect copyright.PENANANPFSd366Jm
677Please respect copyright.PENANAR0msl3Vzx2
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.677Please respect copyright.PENANASRDyzQzeY3
677Please respect copyright.PENANAPNU4u6Xm68
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"677Please respect copyright.PENANA8Ns8PlOAtL
677Please respect copyright.PENANAgBAgkS20V9
He doesn't reply.677Please respect copyright.PENANAJyxg1YwO1j
677Please respect copyright.PENANAlFOfC4BNYD
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.677Please respect copyright.PENANAiNzZPYLTMD
677Please respect copyright.PENANA723Yh7gKsC
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.677Please respect copyright.PENANA8vAx2M0lwU
677Please respect copyright.PENANAlDUepZSSI4
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"677Please respect copyright.PENANAkex26Imt9W
677Please respect copyright.PENANALgwR4w1Ywh
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.677Please respect copyright.PENANAngdK66DzPj
677Please respect copyright.PENANAeIK5xxNeHb
"Stay awake." I told him softly.677Please respect copyright.PENANA37pPKrIXvV
677Please respect copyright.PENANAv45kcT2v7T
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.677Please respect copyright.PENANAiL0yHDlw5c
677Please respect copyright.PENANAokevfkvDfk
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.677Please respect copyright.PENANAdTKE1NGcuJ
677Please respect copyright.PENANAtiCgZvcor9
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.677Please respect copyright.PENANA4WBl1iiK9w
677Please respect copyright.PENANAEgxay6Ryyy
"Kiss me," he repeats.677Please respect copyright.PENANAYzmUKhoSgD
677Please respect copyright.PENANA51IOzvM4G9
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.677Please respect copyright.PENANASEApnvnXxa
677Please respect copyright.PENANA786gxLAooH
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.677Please respect copyright.PENANAbr5jeawqO4
677Please respect copyright.PENANAzONPPoOoyw
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.677Please respect copyright.PENANAoCTxflLjWv
677Please respect copyright.PENANAIr8mkR6inK
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.677Please respect copyright.PENANA7JNRzhlj3N
677Please respect copyright.PENANAM8uzX8A0Lo
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.677Please respect copyright.PENANAqbQMTT1tro
677Please respect copyright.PENANABqPPFAcZ7o
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.677Please respect copyright.PENANAI0gCpqTow3
677Please respect copyright.PENANAOTUsw0nOsD
Electricity races through me and lingers.677Please respect copyright.PENANAoLjeTRz7v8
677Please respect copyright.PENANA8JYeTjKUAz
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.677Please respect copyright.PENANA1uDbcLuPwu
677Please respect copyright.PENANAqsNUV760XJ
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.677Please respect copyright.PENANAtxNTP314hf
677Please respect copyright.PENANAVcQk6TheYO
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.677Please respect copyright.PENANArgwDBXB85B
677Please respect copyright.PENANAAaiW2bj92b
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.677Please respect copyright.PENANAJfmuSqXaTi
677Please respect copyright.PENANArbWXWu7oxI
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.677Please respect copyright.PENANAzUD3PqtNRV
677Please respect copyright.PENANAgD3gxX94Nh
"Jeremy?"677Please respect copyright.PENANApBb6gr93Iy
677Please respect copyright.PENANATpThFsKcmo
I shake my head, not believing.677Please respect copyright.PENANAwH7j80Vdw8
677Please respect copyright.PENANAbpJxd8lAyM
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"677Please respect copyright.PENANAL0XndEx3rK
677Please respect copyright.PENANAgQohy2nNhV
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.677Please respect copyright.PENANAkLpkFOLGhL
677Please respect copyright.PENANA6FW2CDFbEY
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.677Please respect copyright.PENANApl8FvwdgGW
677Please respect copyright.PENANAeCJ1djJsJE
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 677Please respect copyright.PENANALkvPKYxnq9
677Please respect copyright.PENANAfa1cdbDc8o
