I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.628Please respect copyright.PENANA5MESZPva6Q
He's shaking underneath my grasp.628Please respect copyright.PENANAd6MvMbf16a
628Please respect copyright.PENANAQxiEIQ7mCZ
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.628Please respect copyright.PENANAMGEypZukhL
628Please respect copyright.PENANAWv4yoGsZKa
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.628Please respect copyright.PENANAPMHiGhSuX1
628Please respect copyright.PENANAIzJfB13eoS
I smile bitterly.628Please respect copyright.PENANAFqEVkbESHf
628Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4Sheb1igx
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.628Please respect copyright.PENANAwCzad59cOb
628Please respect copyright.PENANAx9M4Xv6yM9
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.628Please respect copyright.PENANA48pGmtLDZE
628Please respect copyright.PENANAiUTur7XGCu
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.628Please respect copyright.PENANA48updMSfC4
628Please respect copyright.PENANAgK6fUaS0SL
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."628Please respect copyright.PENANA6nRPiJyPcy
628Please respect copyright.PENANACJGeqTTo6O
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.628Please respect copyright.PENANALd0rDIQopk
628Please respect copyright.PENANA0k42rAYV0k
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.628Please respect copyright.PENANA3fVDVd5aSI
628Please respect copyright.PENANAW74IWxLZRi
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.628Please respect copyright.PENANAV1VTvl0eCE
628Please respect copyright.PENANA2VZnS1mVTF
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.628Please respect copyright.PENANAsnYwSVH0K2
628Please respect copyright.PENANAjELGy2b4o5
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.628Please respect copyright.PENANATSHUsfIHc8
628Please respect copyright.PENANA4AJrIjhzHR
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.628Please respect copyright.PENANApo4XzK1Bxg
628Please respect copyright.PENANA0gOg0pgB9E
I must at all cost keep him awake.628Please respect copyright.PENANAdKiZYrysvc
628Please respect copyright.PENANAHMeMakV1HF
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"628Please respect copyright.PENANAxa92mR6EAh
628Please respect copyright.PENANAKAyaHGUor3
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.628Please respect copyright.PENANA9dp2N5N7Tj
628Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZhIvTmsm4
"Not that long baby I promise."628Please respect copyright.PENANAefYJUFmogl
628Please respect copyright.PENANA6TRaCRUdEb
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.628Please respect copyright.PENANAhsM81IplQW
628Please respect copyright.PENANAxCQ8nH1o1O
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.628Please respect copyright.PENANAVK2xQY72Em
628Please respect copyright.PENANArJSzEMhtZg
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.628Please respect copyright.PENANAcCJoiJDY6H
628Please respect copyright.PENANAUYm9Hv8RMM
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.628Please respect copyright.PENANAvE55To6KiN
628Please respect copyright.PENANAdP0vdYpSWZ
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.628Please respect copyright.PENANAQBdKHqnkOb
628Please respect copyright.PENANArKJAO81kxU
I frown at him.628Please respect copyright.PENANAisqXCDjnwS
628Please respect copyright.PENANAYxaEtCNJtU
"Don't say that."628Please respect copyright.PENANAaycod20Mra
628Please respect copyright.PENANABmIrnbglvo
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.628Please respect copyright.PENANAnT6ymn087X
628Please respect copyright.PENANAFz0bYYnqN9
I gasp.628Please respect copyright.PENANAzCII70sEyI
628Please respect copyright.PENANA2H5jTnZ2t1
"Jere stop!"628Please respect copyright.PENANApPONCQW1Qv
628Please respect copyright.PENANAC4Pm9Z5Rwj
He goes on.628Please respect copyright.PENANAFaf5eozGuo
628Please respect copyright.PENANAMHAodqgOse
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.628Please respect copyright.PENANAbcT8e55U7i
628Please respect copyright.PENANAfSJuJo3aiM
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.628Please respect copyright.PENANAeLAJXGguPW
628Please respect copyright.PENANA8mQVR1u9Os
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"628Please respect copyright.PENANARm0OibbxsN
628Please respect copyright.PENANADljeoTUZIg
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.628Please respect copyright.PENANA8crkglVKYp
628Please respect copyright.PENANAr3mK5Jxz3r
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.628Please respect copyright.PENANAE5tHgIz7aQ
628Please respect copyright.PENANAqCQb4Bmupl
"I won't."628Please respect copyright.PENANA3NATqWlk94
628Please respect copyright.PENANA8uOi4MwNMk
He obeys, watching me soberly.628Please respect copyright.PENANARGae1gFGnx
628Please respect copyright.PENANALp3Nugfpre
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.628Please respect copyright.PENANARPUQrYVmcY
628Please respect copyright.PENANAXrpzqGBGcw
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.628Please respect copyright.PENANA8hircPsmZr
628Please respect copyright.PENANATWVUvUlDza
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.628Please respect copyright.PENANA8DkGKUJuPf
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.628Please respect copyright.PENANAyHDiZcCqrq
628Please respect copyright.PENANAoFAVokBLuy
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.628Please respect copyright.PENANAckzXlDEvfn
628Please respect copyright.PENANAm8BJWUrMcg
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.628Please respect copyright.PENANAohHFG9Inx8
628Please respect copyright.PENANAF2DsazpnYO
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"628Please respect copyright.PENANAG2xNC0WvuR
628Please respect copyright.PENANAYd8PcqV6px
He tries to nod but he can't.628Please respect copyright.PENANATJB0ulDF4O
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.628Please respect copyright.PENANAGeeSYFcDlB
628Please respect copyright.PENANATKWG3K9boP
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.628Please respect copyright.PENANAbQqgKsy8Li
628Please respect copyright.PENANARTOvDYCaUF
He looks up into mine.628Please respect copyright.PENANAGSXRwiLqUk
628Please respect copyright.PENANAUAUF6He6BT
"Don't leave me." He whispers.628Please respect copyright.PENANApQRFxCu3Ig
628Please respect copyright.PENANAKUUtmcINO9
"Stay awake." I tell him.628Please respect copyright.PENANAqlqgrKVrcS
628Please respect copyright.PENANAZyOR54tX2d
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.628Please respect copyright.PENANA6S0GcEncQL
628Please respect copyright.PENANA9FIrVDEBvX
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.628Please respect copyright.PENANAgWZvUYefDv
628Please respect copyright.PENANA6VzI6EszIk
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"628Please respect copyright.PENANAeI9eJEebvO
628Please respect copyright.PENANAY7rb56ZQk6
He doesn't reply.628Please respect copyright.PENANAhSLzvc4S6w
628Please respect copyright.PENANANoCcgOwllf
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.628Please respect copyright.PENANAm9qQZriMfN
628Please respect copyright.PENANAGDzb8tBbDn
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.628Please respect copyright.PENANAMpSjDBMd2k
628Please respect copyright.PENANAsXxveCmAVR
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"628Please respect copyright.PENANAnMj1KSQsz0
628Please respect copyright.PENANAsiawgamfEW
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.628Please respect copyright.PENANAX4Gn7NYKtX
628Please respect copyright.PENANARfrb90qac5
"Stay awake." I told him softly.628Please respect copyright.PENANA1lgJzFQ4mH
628Please respect copyright.PENANAK8MYbF6c2q
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.628Please respect copyright.PENANA8E9SBTZP9a
628Please respect copyright.PENANAY1YhkC5y6K
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.628Please respect copyright.PENANA1gthtzQtJD
628Please respect copyright.PENANAFrp0C4aYMm
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.628Please respect copyright.PENANASqpGynhNp1
628Please respect copyright.PENANAhQXb7Tc77B
"Kiss me," he repeats.628Please respect copyright.PENANAEM8fwfVtJP
628Please respect copyright.PENANAuD1UMPLNfH
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.628Please respect copyright.PENANAefZLUSpim0
628Please respect copyright.PENANAExnD7w2cu5
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.628Please respect copyright.PENANAgCRRYt1Whs
628Please respect copyright.PENANARhZW0XfdsH
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.628Please respect copyright.PENANAKQVPdJRR4L
628Please respect copyright.PENANAbk6BFYaAZN
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.628Please respect copyright.PENANABC7IHwibqy
628Please respect copyright.PENANAP6iskK9C1j
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.628Please respect copyright.PENANAVwaxMjqhTr
628Please respect copyright.PENANAIlZtMmJkTv
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.628Please respect copyright.PENANAnBrF2lpMWl
628Please respect copyright.PENANAdOEgBHjwfG
Electricity races through me and lingers.628Please respect copyright.PENANASLhnreqSrM
628Please respect copyright.PENANApm9k6folt4
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.628Please respect copyright.PENANAlpTifDxgFv
628Please respect copyright.PENANATduEcw5kPQ
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.628Please respect copyright.PENANADAFM1Zm7aV
628Please respect copyright.PENANAtkZtLjQX3e
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.628Please respect copyright.PENANAuyJK1qAsua
628Please respect copyright.PENANA9iCnZj6jmv
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.628Please respect copyright.PENANAIPPBXyWo28
628Please respect copyright.PENANAWSgmmLzLES
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.628Please respect copyright.PENANAolVVHb6kRY
628Please respect copyright.PENANAHp9GREh52i
"Jeremy?"628Please respect copyright.PENANAiY8sCabQnQ
628Please respect copyright.PENANA4AbfcHM40S
I shake my head, not believing.628Please respect copyright.PENANAMAg5IOwlTd
628Please respect copyright.PENANAUuHMakSmWi
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"628Please respect copyright.PENANA9usi9YRpNz
628Please respect copyright.PENANA8bbNrzcEHw
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.628Please respect copyright.PENANAMgXV8oiG4g
628Please respect copyright.PENANAvj2CAShvLU
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.628Please respect copyright.PENANAeUEXgVcuvy
628Please respect copyright.PENANACoZqWTGWMT
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 628Please respect copyright.PENANArmM5K2Nndc
628Please respect copyright.PENANA68QqqKd4TB
