JERE682Please respect copyright.PENANAfAgnLlX8Me
682Please respect copyright.PENANAiTwJSa2fKU
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.682Please respect copyright.PENANAJfFqWYn8Dm
He's shaking underneath my grasp.682Please respect copyright.PENANALGn9pmVeF9
682Please respect copyright.PENANAaxVCHfMf5o
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.682Please respect copyright.PENANAEVP4knpxPo
682Please respect copyright.PENANAHRdXeIyYsY
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.682Please respect copyright.PENANAxxqdXr1LBc
682Please respect copyright.PENANAqIaWfioL86
I smile bitterly.682Please respect copyright.PENANAXHQoWVgRFo
682Please respect copyright.PENANArUVkJnKqL3
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.682Please respect copyright.PENANA1Ebp0wVJqd
682Please respect copyright.PENANAI8qRlFivKW
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.682Please respect copyright.PENANADGfFkVE0QT
682Please respect copyright.PENANAqi5vDfDEVa
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.682Please respect copyright.PENANAtoqSUuLQ8N
682Please respect copyright.PENANAAajfoaCfFh
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."682Please respect copyright.PENANAx7v40fBijd
682Please respect copyright.PENANArZB62bqdPy
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.682Please respect copyright.PENANAGeFdJFBTaA
682Please respect copyright.PENANA4WmZOLYyLa
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.682Please respect copyright.PENANALNP32OIuTP
682Please respect copyright.PENANAfcYpPqQTLj
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.682Please respect copyright.PENANAO5jYNMjKju
682Please respect copyright.PENANAt48CynqYUm
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.682Please respect copyright.PENANAezDZR8jkoJ
682Please respect copyright.PENANA4c95rPyjMu
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.682Please respect copyright.PENANAFfGAiphdZS
682Please respect copyright.PENANAeO61DWbcQf
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.682Please respect copyright.PENANA7vAP1CFSdl
682Please respect copyright.PENANAbJxprSNZQr
I must at all cost keep him awake.682Please respect copyright.PENANATER4XTjDEd
682Please respect copyright.PENANABHIxocRFY8
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"682Please respect copyright.PENANA2QoUL8HUx7
682Please respect copyright.PENANAT2GwT5xSsg
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.682Please respect copyright.PENANAEeNK0D3sdq
682Please respect copyright.PENANAwoDu58jYx7
"Not that long baby I promise."682Please respect copyright.PENANAjNYNd9hxTu
682Please respect copyright.PENANAY4VM64nFiD
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.682Please respect copyright.PENANADb8YtWaPVU
682Please respect copyright.PENANACbtm5kOTw9
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.682Please respect copyright.PENANA871Nbn6BwV
682Please respect copyright.PENANAf0AfxSzG1h
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.682Please respect copyright.PENANAaNNB7TTXRU
682Please respect copyright.PENANAmoULQyAM9q
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.682Please respect copyright.PENANAaBAySmPKZL
682Please respect copyright.PENANA5S2p4Zo8U6
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.682Please respect copyright.PENANAGSmhD3rS1X
682Please respect copyright.PENANATageisI8WY
I frown at him.682Please respect copyright.PENANAzJpBGcfvNb
682Please respect copyright.PENANAUdRVwZ4FsJ
"Don't say that."682Please respect copyright.PENANAUZIVDpCSJr
682Please respect copyright.PENANAx6pctuaGu1
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.682Please respect copyright.PENANAFXKnpy43lI
682Please respect copyright.PENANA1gCV7zhDST
I gasp.682Please respect copyright.PENANA5jFsrLIauD
682Please respect copyright.PENANAgLRlqpZ4jF
"Jere stop!"682Please respect copyright.PENANAzA5kMAK0Jy
682Please respect copyright.PENANAUp6dLaAYTA
He goes on.682Please respect copyright.PENANAL4Cm3H0Llr
682Please respect copyright.PENANACSgTGz5ai0
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.682Please respect copyright.PENANAzf2z6US86s
682Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ5384gdnk
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.682Please respect copyright.PENANADRq5Yh0E8N
682Please respect copyright.PENANAZrc2vQtzFI
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"682Please respect copyright.PENANAcjAETwNGyO
682Please respect copyright.PENANANp9r8yWw3l
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.682Please respect copyright.PENANA9SNi1r0G3h
682Please respect copyright.PENANAYhR79uad1O
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.682Please respect copyright.PENANAaWCfUhlDqQ
682Please respect copyright.PENANAna62IfGVfM
"I won't."682Please respect copyright.PENANAA1a2WHECxU
682Please respect copyright.PENANAUpx9wORQxi
He obeys, watching me soberly.682Please respect copyright.PENANAbQamH7KGjR
682Please respect copyright.PENANArOQW6gy8bj
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.682Please respect copyright.PENANATcTHyrbfGD
682Please respect copyright.PENANApRLzKxDRUC
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.682Please respect copyright.PENANAmInFocJUu0
682Please respect copyright.PENANAYHBunEB5xJ
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.682Please respect copyright.PENANAPIYHXnYGB4
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.682Please respect copyright.PENANAEWCJMdtlLB
682Please respect copyright.PENANAQUNLVHDoAr
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.682Please respect copyright.PENANA6uZRqq1aL3
682Please respect copyright.PENANAVj8nl7kCnM
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.682Please respect copyright.PENANAa6SU9U1wc6
682Please respect copyright.PENANA35grIHjSlt
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"682Please respect copyright.PENANAFnmnPMpMJW
682Please respect copyright.PENANASA3ytqtxU9
He tries to nod but he can't.682Please respect copyright.PENANATxYMuSoFdQ
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.682Please respect copyright.PENANAIIuKA9DBfg
682Please respect copyright.PENANAsW0v9DHazN
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.682Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ3fDlWX9g
682Please respect copyright.PENANAI4VvcFFGDV
He looks up into mine.682Please respect copyright.PENANAzH1j6ngOdF
682Please respect copyright.PENANA6ImidTmQyI
"Don't leave me." He whispers.682Please respect copyright.PENANAazZhrIJOUg
682Please respect copyright.PENANA5sFjSxRfdx
"Stay awake." I tell him.682Please respect copyright.PENANAAHOzrkXkFi
682Please respect copyright.PENANAmb28UUnxBj
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.682Please respect copyright.PENANAtQ6SIFF6YW
682Please respect copyright.PENANAgnx08UG7sd
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.682Please respect copyright.PENANA0GUvR7huQ6
682Please respect copyright.PENANAddbUI2CtMW
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"682Please respect copyright.PENANAHFmRexdWah
682Please respect copyright.PENANAaPyRfcDG1V
He doesn't reply.682Please respect copyright.PENANAIXID2T1ues
682Please respect copyright.PENANApox7Eg2uCx
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.682Please respect copyright.PENANA2jrksV0FYV
682Please respect copyright.PENANAOgOUEP85NQ
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.682Please respect copyright.PENANAFFC1bo83Ov
682Please respect copyright.PENANAwpL0ROTOwo
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"682Please respect copyright.PENANA1YpToNRm89
682Please respect copyright.PENANA6wtBXTR3eq
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.682Please respect copyright.PENANAdzUcS5HN06
682Please respect copyright.PENANApFGRTKJLiB
"Stay awake." I told him softly.682Please respect copyright.PENANAbqN5qZhwda
682Please respect copyright.PENANACgWgqacUru
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.682Please respect copyright.PENANAoWrJEzH1wb
682Please respect copyright.PENANAz4bnJI27ZA
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.682Please respect copyright.PENANA0KYZZyFsWB
682Please respect copyright.PENANAIazfziRnvK
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.682Please respect copyright.PENANApOoaejxEYC
682Please respect copyright.PENANAECyFT6OdlF
"Kiss me," he repeats.682Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ7uRPBpcv
682Please respect copyright.PENANALDt4m9yb3X
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.682Please respect copyright.PENANAoEJ5aVoloW
682Please respect copyright.PENANAPP0SsIAqZT
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.682Please respect copyright.PENANAHujOdM8Fi0
682Please respect copyright.PENANAiK9XqP9io9
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.682Please respect copyright.PENANA21UhBsgeyi
682Please respect copyright.PENANAyus0xnFbIy
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.682Please respect copyright.PENANA4A6m1R3SkD
682Please respect copyright.PENANA4tNu26myO6
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.682Please respect copyright.PENANAaLrKkuTvBO
682Please respect copyright.PENANAL1wBqT1E3r
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.682Please respect copyright.PENANAnG363TLxDq
682Please respect copyright.PENANA3msEQ6vUvP
Electricity races through me and lingers.682Please respect copyright.PENANA3LBcM9f0c6
682Please respect copyright.PENANA3GaJtKfc3K
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.682Please respect copyright.PENANAF5ODCE8u6U
682Please respect copyright.PENANA0tFS6iF0tw
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.682Please respect copyright.PENANA8gFMjajTIS
682Please respect copyright.PENANAc86X4EzJSX
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.682Please respect copyright.PENANAxPlgX2q6N4
682Please respect copyright.PENANAfbezkI8Px1
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.682Please respect copyright.PENANAY1vK85si6b
682Please respect copyright.PENANAkspIV2GnDF
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.682Please respect copyright.PENANASFPeD0q6fh
682Please respect copyright.PENANArNQonNxMOy
"Jeremy?"682Please respect copyright.PENANAMaEtEKzgqA
682Please respect copyright.PENANAmGbFZAzw4N
I shake my head, not believing.682Please respect copyright.PENANAMgSHlu7Wqr
682Please respect copyright.PENANAGWLE6WARo5
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"682Please respect copyright.PENANAUoYeslrWv2
682Please respect copyright.PENANAXl4xJttaDb
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.682Please respect copyright.PENANAGuY8NWdaO8
682Please respect copyright.PENANA3HxuJo7qlC
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.682Please respect copyright.PENANAZXAvWR1JRd
682Please respect copyright.PENANADYu5jHBzyU
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 682Please respect copyright.PENANAQQemWJVmTd
682Please respect copyright.PENANAGMIQYQEQ8N
