I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.731Please respect copyright.PENANAiywK2pz59i
He's shaking underneath my grasp.731Please respect copyright.PENANA1A5d4dc8u1
731Please respect copyright.PENANAHO8rP9h3zF
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.731Please respect copyright.PENANAU8H0qQf4CJ
731Please respect copyright.PENANA3AROo0eEY0
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.731Please respect copyright.PENANAiypKBFdOak
731Please respect copyright.PENANAKXf7S21Uha
I smile bitterly.731Please respect copyright.PENANA1tz0vTmTtM
731Please respect copyright.PENANAXhnDnu5qg5
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.731Please respect copyright.PENANAhd9bjJWnad
731Please respect copyright.PENANAUNLaGFTcww
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.731Please respect copyright.PENANAqGBuzi0jfD
731Please respect copyright.PENANA5D3uho8YKQ
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.731Please respect copyright.PENANAGD0NbbOaV5
731Please respect copyright.PENANAGQe6pvAVpw
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."731Please respect copyright.PENANA8BwPlK3E0l
731Please respect copyright.PENANATz1vUlU1Xl
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.731Please respect copyright.PENANABxeyVuHWD1
731Please respect copyright.PENANA38vqOqap47
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.731Please respect copyright.PENANAbnsIIQuIGF
731Please respect copyright.PENANA2AXb2gMYPt
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.731Please respect copyright.PENANAaxsXOGd2EG
731Please respect copyright.PENANANt6f02Trfc
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.731Please respect copyright.PENANAO0MX8m8Yms
731Please respect copyright.PENANAb9COMc78W7
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.731Please respect copyright.PENANAtLoXSB29XP
731Please respect copyright.PENANAIr94Ad9S0x
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.731Please respect copyright.PENANAmEdE0GPsuA
731Please respect copyright.PENANAGRfUzKmXfo
I must at all cost keep him awake.731Please respect copyright.PENANA2kghbWNWTl
731Please respect copyright.PENANATzsY16TOVF
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"731Please respect copyright.PENANAQv4lgFzjlY
731Please respect copyright.PENANA5qJXJJltQt
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.731Please respect copyright.PENANAH8XAIwpTdD
731Please respect copyright.PENANALKic4T98jm
"Not that long baby I promise."731Please respect copyright.PENANAdMJC7R2KTg
731Please respect copyright.PENANA05a5edUU6v
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.731Please respect copyright.PENANAJHzTEPno3v
731Please respect copyright.PENANAO8cRDtquXJ
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.731Please respect copyright.PENANAjRXEd2adhH
731Please respect copyright.PENANAGsge0zHKWS
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.731Please respect copyright.PENANAADX8DpaQtI
731Please respect copyright.PENANATqsa0DVRMZ
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.731Please respect copyright.PENANAG9ZwC4iD9o
731Please respect copyright.PENANAwyIIl3O1Nc
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.731Please respect copyright.PENANAGWuOzn79BW
731Please respect copyright.PENANAgMuxTS094P
I frown at him.731Please respect copyright.PENANAuigExDwQcD
731Please respect copyright.PENANATrJkdQ92vN
"Don't say that."731Please respect copyright.PENANAOsFf5feTm4
731Please respect copyright.PENANAhlm72XvPFi
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.731Please respect copyright.PENANAbtypys7gH3
731Please respect copyright.PENANA4yvzZsg1zp
I gasp.731Please respect copyright.PENANAws0WvqCSQz
731Please respect copyright.PENANABzRYagZOIN
"Jere stop!"731Please respect copyright.PENANAf3hyAUo3KK
731Please respect copyright.PENANAElJqbmzPvm
He goes on.731Please respect copyright.PENANA7pCTAyniqK
731Please respect copyright.PENANA09kGghfyg0
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.731Please respect copyright.PENANAfyJz4qrYOO
731Please respect copyright.PENANA7UlmQiStwp
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.731Please respect copyright.PENANANPSolOsj9W
731Please respect copyright.PENANAyPYXMCoXOz
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"731Please respect copyright.PENANADu4xRERnHO
731Please respect copyright.PENANAIG9Y4C6zzf
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.731Please respect copyright.PENANADIOUKhmGr4
731Please respect copyright.PENANA3WhDtpkd6K
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.731Please respect copyright.PENANAEeUL3XpqLR
731Please respect copyright.PENANAAxCPTeFsRw
"I won't."731Please respect copyright.PENANAqvIUACZyZI
731Please respect copyright.PENANAs6fLmVCxUr
He obeys, watching me soberly.731Please respect copyright.PENANAuCvWCjrGKB
731Please respect copyright.PENANAZNm8aotm3l
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.731Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZhG734R3G
731Please respect copyright.PENANAV1nZwNj4d8
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.731Please respect copyright.PENANABffjMnrmHV
731Please respect copyright.PENANAU8zl5acsaq
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.731Please respect copyright.PENANAaMyJBkcTpz
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.731Please respect copyright.PENANADnhkvbOZOP
731Please respect copyright.PENANAP6xHd9sbr7
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.731Please respect copyright.PENANAiSGKsp66P9
731Please respect copyright.PENANAqRZc4FIQ0g
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.731Please respect copyright.PENANA3IiMkr3DFS
731Please respect copyright.PENANAbAU5Mmwmfv
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"731Please respect copyright.PENANA0UHUZbLUfq
731Please respect copyright.PENANAXYUgMoiItt
He tries to nod but he can't.731Please respect copyright.PENANAeqG4iwwZRe
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.731Please respect copyright.PENANAR0ZP8lG3NP
731Please respect copyright.PENANA2FhLiLojAm
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.731Please respect copyright.PENANAnuAxOsNtFq
731Please respect copyright.PENANAt6zbWhyZoe
He looks up into mine.731Please respect copyright.PENANA8H5iYqrKal
731Please respect copyright.PENANAXC746fqJ9q
"Don't leave me." He whispers.731Please respect copyright.PENANAwHox6q5KXJ
731Please respect copyright.PENANAHWNaGZBN7o
"Stay awake." I tell him.731Please respect copyright.PENANAsctEWkmysq
731Please respect copyright.PENANAcpELmDsst4
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.731Please respect copyright.PENANAPlDgVjPUVm
731Please respect copyright.PENANA7YYhEIyAvu
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.731Please respect copyright.PENANAIJCXFpic6k
731Please respect copyright.PENANAkVxb5MjpEz
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"731Please respect copyright.PENANAZvfCimGIRG
731Please respect copyright.PENANABAdBoVIMwi
He doesn't reply.731Please respect copyright.PENANAFU2bylRqum
731Please respect copyright.PENANALgpADFfGFY
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.731Please respect copyright.PENANA3wEpzMXQ2y
731Please respect copyright.PENANAxvaDnpe5om
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.731Please respect copyright.PENANAmccuxK7KTu
731Please respect copyright.PENANAWQYUsRxB3x
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"731Please respect copyright.PENANAdryDQDSrrK
731Please respect copyright.PENANAfgDBaEepl2
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.731Please respect copyright.PENANAlP2Zd31srH
731Please respect copyright.PENANADI5gYoiUd2
"Stay awake." I told him softly.731Please respect copyright.PENANAACtEagluJe
731Please respect copyright.PENANApESgl5hdh4
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.731Please respect copyright.PENANATFDVvCSPOh
731Please respect copyright.PENANAFC1AKFF0Du
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.731Please respect copyright.PENANANbjuWIO9QS
731Please respect copyright.PENANA7j5Q6CC8AY
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.731Please respect copyright.PENANAECccvWbFw9
731Please respect copyright.PENANAoHFXebzPlb
"Kiss me," he repeats.731Please respect copyright.PENANAHgzhTaQB00
731Please respect copyright.PENANA4yrrcx1s2W
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.731Please respect copyright.PENANAe09VIpZCxG
731Please respect copyright.PENANAE9IRz6uElT
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.731Please respect copyright.PENANA8NZnkG8wTG
731Please respect copyright.PENANAJMt1Bf0kB2
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.731Please respect copyright.PENANAKQvTUBOCcn
731Please respect copyright.PENANAyGex1B4x8h
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.731Please respect copyright.PENANAK3LELewNCa
731Please respect copyright.PENANAvS3iVydKzt
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.731Please respect copyright.PENANAjbN8kch9Vk
731Please respect copyright.PENANARUTuekcEla
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.731Please respect copyright.PENANAihm5TsWwKF
731Please respect copyright.PENANAmXJGMjmX3J
Electricity races through me and lingers.731Please respect copyright.PENANAhNF05qQYfy
731Please respect copyright.PENANADDC6dFqs55
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.731Please respect copyright.PENANAIvDqpf2CaP
731Please respect copyright.PENANAhxeQNezkZv
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.731Please respect copyright.PENANAoz7DFzoweD
731Please respect copyright.PENANAAFnZLZKhLQ
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.731Please respect copyright.PENANABYxAMd8Ols
731Please respect copyright.PENANAxUsTjgIqqy
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.731Please respect copyright.PENANAMHtczD20zX
731Please respect copyright.PENANAswqx1Dn8eM
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.731Please respect copyright.PENANAxKey9cXJOi
731Please respect copyright.PENANARZ2n0WJ6g9
"Jeremy?"731Please respect copyright.PENANAUPGan5TPwc
731Please respect copyright.PENANAhuUfsiDH3d
I shake my head, not believing.731Please respect copyright.PENANA7sGkD6Ctia
731Please respect copyright.PENANAISXuItNyXD
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"731Please respect copyright.PENANAJWzKDQjaXw
731Please respect copyright.PENANABeuUCT9eC0
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.731Please respect copyright.PENANAvhKl3Z67sT
731Please respect copyright.PENANAAG7d6pB9ZI
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.731Please respect copyright.PENANAgFIndTbMbn
731Please respect copyright.PENANAHjRzCXvNME
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 731Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZjzYYy3fl
731Please respect copyright.PENANArVRBv2Q0EV
