JERE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4iJgvcXVL
He's shaking underneath my grasp.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ox23UhGj5
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzIL4pwL6a
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RezSfpIvI
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsNiygPRib
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ2zoWfx06
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4Ej8iV4UT
I smile bitterly.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zn08VFvIh
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJx3hunGdk
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2HR2qePZV
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXaptjeZUb
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO6HiJpny1
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRHuAf6xnq
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFVl71CVc0
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd47kaGDpij
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQA9MOcdKr
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d4y6l04jQ
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs6k9ZrnD2
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkE7aFaBZN
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSbGswwC8R
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGphDx88sAE
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.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlftHFKJZa
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hyDtgoP3b
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkKEOVdEnk
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnkWQcOzID
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBXIToR1Zs
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7tGOgLqey
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zKmuwByqS
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZkCIuQOQm
I must at all cost keep him awake.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v4wITlexf
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6fCTj3cLq
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long must I wait?"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZCIDQ4PMH
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmFh7zjPjN
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdFF6t0B4v
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4gFamYSr0
"Not that long baby I promise."733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOoEBBoT5N
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJeArXMdDo
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhwiQFTSlH
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaAeLnK1dV
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCkgwBAaPk
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87Hi8Hmhx6
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOIH1yQn4t
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELg40fAH7E
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCdOG1wBMz
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdmEKhI17I
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjSsLa26ic
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUyQmrnHQP
I frown at him.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCb3U5pPVx
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyvISvcGtc
"Don't say that."733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnubAMjD8Hq
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBEZT8IvP1
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAK5O2MguX
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSH49oxMwv
I gasp.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG70tlzTFn
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepEe3SkAna
"Jere stop!"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEBoCZaY4T
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwuVvGdeMY
He goes on.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkAN5hixIY
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcG0j9AEAa
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBSTBBCyBG
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXJNzfozu6
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5GtxVCdjS
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzNnaKgExN
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWpQjzkGcL
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86LmcXwSDE
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv7dSXganE
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8hMwagzZq
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7knUhhkTl
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliJuhNhWxm
"I won't."733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwPm2dQCu4
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH2YytFkBW
He obeys, watching me soberly.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKAzRvTDcX
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasXVfAviTg
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4RqvscCQs
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKf8bQdopp
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvdE47g21p
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IjkF875in
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivx3j2u7t2
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHwh0q1rIh
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusZq0XDi4B
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoCpXaD91m
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCLevpYlN8
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KndNbg4Q2
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvub5oGmiRy
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRyBNhOWNU
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a1YejFGVN
He tries to nod but he can't.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbBrK1NOVU
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg16CiYtJ0L
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SLuHD9WD8
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjw5LnVlvh
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamRhZjr2go
He looks up into mine.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVPxAdsyFD
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5Zn96tN9g
"Don't leave me." He whispers.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vIQY8oJr2
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSG8xknCMy
"Stay awake." I tell him.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh35frrnbL
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIC95yQuQH
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcsJuHWvmK
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6kDdQE1al
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6WclHmr8P
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWsDvzHpB9
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaRqUsuf3h
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zD6DV394l
He doesn't reply.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm8IzJbqNn
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1ZsA77Iew
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc0Pg7sQ1V
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZZhkRWTat
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cD67wn4eP
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKNjkMwgaU
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULpo2mp6PN
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwsKW9yVkA
His eyes blink open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnanKfA6bR7
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezGfP3byXq
"Stay awake." I told him softly.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB3jIl8oWb
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BFAIBjQS5
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6ZxlFrXFK
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvZkjihHAb
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnWt6G93UA
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUhPy3DZS8
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAGIlwEopD
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii30l4p9Vu
"Kiss me," he repeats.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4q167BSrK
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyqwEBgYG3
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oaCF2jxuU
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k8peRfknZ
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYBubpeEcx
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlfcex29KC
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWDaOyFuGA
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNRup2f9yk
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDxCNKsc50
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOLcdWeiaB
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuE99zRioI
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9tgwbFX7q
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11J04lUOU5
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGG6FoRW07
Electricity races through me and lingers.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx45XrvSYL
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvZ8DZ0wUN
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihLnGxGtvK
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjfDEgKEZi
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4XJyKK7UW
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8p1KqrZk0
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTDsRu17OS
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxzaov0S6s
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9srAhFtR7Q
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOInIIalKRC
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡherycRj5Dk
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATtb2jeXcE
"Jeremy?"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOwvS9T8Cq
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6waZd0oK9X
I shake my head, not believing.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyreRfvPCt
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoOHifuioc
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMnIUhg7Jl
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsC6d8N3BB
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVxa5RUjB4
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlCHRyxMpm
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNamTGh1Qjp
733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0svYCMZ654
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 733Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGNWMSM3N5
