PROLOGUE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlT919ykxV3
He's shaking underneath my grasp.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8aoSayo7N
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJu8rxslOuS
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UAWOcdJuS
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPY3uOt8gE
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTB88LZlS1
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZepUm13Xfa
I smile bitterly.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0HlRCMoCf
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGA9L2YFUaB
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9GWCtY05L
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFYyHRej1b
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfThmJLUS4
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOztDuR7HBu
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUhRFniAkN
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfidv9L86RN
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWM9zUSPjQz
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCr97oot59
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BuiDjzhpZ
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIwm9DRuxl
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlGnb2atDG
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A1z5lD9Ki
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.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR0qjiPanL
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTccw10lAbY
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvECShv1jZO
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtsKTtY3IV
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUtYTm2SAI
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGBpWLanJt
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfw6i8Llsl
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9dFJfMU20
I must at all cost keep him awake.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mqw2WsnOL
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lRoQGQV98
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM788eZ0bcc
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC85E2dnnP
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWuYqNAWgu
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHBoq99W3J
"Not that long baby I promise."898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVABDvkjHh
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78RpAJpfHE
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK3cmJTdJ5
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSRLIC9kxe
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJZ4uPnlqN
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgT77c5tAB
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QOW0QxoLF
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscIZUJckft
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkfeVrlNnQ
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNU8BRXdIl
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjCAEbXYl6
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP23tDKhGp
I frown at him.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8fQMfLjTv
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5u9BARa7e
"Don't say that."898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui7Wqt99ZA
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbZ9cDQDn8
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZnNGjhdd9
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMNyMtg46V
I gasp.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVi96h9wFO
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNeMiOatiO
"Jere stop!"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS3LIwLo2Y
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYHgoHiiq3
He goes on.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNNNjy3IZl
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzRG5MgvLg
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOclil35Gk
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H0hi34rb2
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvUuCbIqF5
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZoFehdm6F
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76uJsCQuPV
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrdF8DRSxt
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a62Nl7up9
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn2BB0vzAS
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08SdFR7wHm
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOdfgFdN80
"I won't."898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyUDOBmGJQ
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgqO628bEW
He obeys, watching me soberly.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhurW4FJEj
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzMQMcmGEt
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8ydufVjW9
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPraiSHjRI
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Bgr9uMbXn
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUm19U4iIB
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1ZAuO4jLs
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YmOTX1LN5
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4ANzz0s2Q
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEpGmv7Jxg
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9KiN3K162
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wPOToLjyj
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnFWEadFZr
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBsp1uYmN5
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPgiTBbdn3
He tries to nod but he can't.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZtGhprTVt
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgguwIQPfX8
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGDBjJRMAa
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ5VIuxIQX
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGexxw6e6kR
He looks up into mine.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcXNAvr1A6
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhYlxbHF96
"Don't leave me." He whispers.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhNHf4f6fR
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZiI9sB6sk
"Stay awake." I tell him.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBktSdVgUYT
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJJGj7Qiij
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCwAiBFzSq
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOogH3kBI6
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1ftE2jA8t
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmSGpHxcKc
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aShA8Xh8s
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0j5adgTmSF
He doesn't reply.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIs1CHJkzk
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrXvgQXnP0
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjBvmF3Wds
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBoixyrw6f
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozdUzvdrEc
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaBVO4kdUZ
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKNHCTpedi
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nyRSfpNGP
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6wqiRUBL4
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZafTeCZZlz
"Stay awake." I told him softly.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4o4u9X3OX0
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS8IG6r9qk
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zemtMwItN
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBAT4q1yl6
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvNl63fAwA
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj65ijc1KTx
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQoJEZdlDZ
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCWs7vi4yv
"Kiss me," he repeats.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM69gWvNcN
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdOtqpMPhh
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrlo8TQtbp
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzvLZ4NQyz
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ8cPny6Tm
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYqstKITM2
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrMHi8XwDL
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT38duWOaD
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98Ru5hsCNp
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI84MldZbIM
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwCz7c8Vbu
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73PM2p3QDR
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwetaKzCgP3
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxRwpCItR8
Electricity races through me and lingers.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5IL7zzeeQ
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHZQZnoCkF
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Qh19uIT6n
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4ml5EYS3r
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLsAAMTOXG
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o5EbwOzzO
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SSSqBivOw
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yrpm2lSmW
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CBNxSuRJU
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IJrNCZ6Mm
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uMrpUxRRx
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjdIrqhaHB
"Jeremy?"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzzas8oedh
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o8y6AB8Ne
I shake my head, not believing.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdSsrvGD9T
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSoCcj7skg
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDflJl5OyDO
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhp7yKfbDm
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShftSNp60I
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwudSVkQch
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5O2kqPqKpo
898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0PedMsHKM
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me.898Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ7tyy0EC8
