JERE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.943Please respect copyright.PENANAjlWuRhx66C
He's shaking underneath my grasp.943Please respect copyright.PENANAiORpJufOmR
943Please respect copyright.PENANAmnI6v2syJp
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.943Please respect copyright.PENANA2lMhYTpIfH
943Please respect copyright.PENANAaAJnCOcaqw
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.943Please respect copyright.PENANApmUrnmvEUn
943Please respect copyright.PENANA4KDNglSXxZ
I smile bitterly.943Please respect copyright.PENANA51RSf6TBim
943Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ct5xFZuxb
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.943Please respect copyright.PENANAoK54NSfxjG
943Please respect copyright.PENANAvWOxion53i
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.943Please respect copyright.PENANA9zJiONcPSF
943Please respect copyright.PENANAONdbQS3L8w
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.943Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZDpxz2Ygn
943Please respect copyright.PENANA63uaXtnKE1
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."943Please respect copyright.PENANAsRWsq64IzS
943Please respect copyright.PENANAq2fPTqdvHj
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.943Please respect copyright.PENANAsFn9UCU9p6
943Please respect copyright.PENANA20tekbCOI4
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.943Please respect copyright.PENANAhSIqneJNQ6
943Please respect copyright.PENANARiAL3AKhgV
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.943Please respect copyright.PENANAw6lCk6BAQx
943Please respect copyright.PENANAgaLV3z4swt
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.943Please respect copyright.PENANACjdhPT9irT
943Please respect copyright.PENANAXFMrmPix0N
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.943Please respect copyright.PENANAyf7nsMKV94
943Please respect copyright.PENANAcMlpXJgMAX
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.943Please respect copyright.PENANAykwbPB4JYr
943Please respect copyright.PENANAdc7sbChi3h
I must at all cost keep him awake.943Please respect copyright.PENANAXjvu1kATMq
943Please respect copyright.PENANA6deMZOzdBB
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long must I wait?"943Please respect copyright.PENANAux1w9udMMH
943Please respect copyright.PENANAIPqhsgUYf3
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.943Please respect copyright.PENANAgqDqpOHcyR
943Please respect copyright.PENANADihgBuoJ6C
"Not that long baby I promise."943Please respect copyright.PENANA80vNF32Xsd
943Please respect copyright.PENANAJBnhSlRlLh
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.943Please respect copyright.PENANAxtelObizFI
943Please respect copyright.PENANAkMPp7IPepo
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.943Please respect copyright.PENANAhNhadCUPzZ
943Please respect copyright.PENANA0BicY5JdCm
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.943Please respect copyright.PENANA3wIrUdmwC1
943Please respect copyright.PENANAcWIcJdaqbS
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.943Please respect copyright.PENANAtOTETnKUYx
943Please respect copyright.PENANAQjx5rizHQv
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.943Please respect copyright.PENANA86JK3uscCq
943Please respect copyright.PENANAmrxsFCXw6N
I frown at him.943Please respect copyright.PENANAmDx1KBADxz
943Please respect copyright.PENANAixmvmZTESw
"Don't say that."943Please respect copyright.PENANAtUpdHwyT5F
943Please respect copyright.PENANAZo3qqCHPoN
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.943Please respect copyright.PENANA3W9XimjXWD
943Please respect copyright.PENANAZZoqhxhaHl
I gasp.943Please respect copyright.PENANAPmiFZgLxtZ
943Please respect copyright.PENANAFtVLp0Ao5w
"Jere stop!"943Please respect copyright.PENANAxY3MPHw1vK
943Please respect copyright.PENANAvzbxw7wBSv
He goes on.943Please respect copyright.PENANAb3gOXwl8jH
943Please respect copyright.PENANAIrZpYBvONG
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.943Please respect copyright.PENANAaieL2R5YGG
943Please respect copyright.PENANAHxAJbisRrG
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.943Please respect copyright.PENANAkpulkmVyIf
943Please respect copyright.PENANA0BjyKXCgWj
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"943Please respect copyright.PENANAUG8qvv4xLS
943Please respect copyright.PENANAsO6J1gRatH
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.943Please respect copyright.PENANAlcgjwH3969
943Please respect copyright.PENANABtcbbDrgUt
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.943Please respect copyright.PENANAETmrsRPsd2
943Please respect copyright.PENANAa3haah27CR
"I won't."943Please respect copyright.PENANARjcDLr1aEM
943Please respect copyright.PENANAXFBYd3bjmk
He obeys, watching me soberly.943Please respect copyright.PENANAMwhQB3OhBb
943Please respect copyright.PENANAT07mjd0lde
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.943Please respect copyright.PENANA1O6BVSUjgP
943Please respect copyright.PENANAb0MRqWgkOR
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.943Please respect copyright.PENANAog3GOGZoZZ
943Please respect copyright.PENANAVYOa19VMTz
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.943Please respect copyright.PENANAFk23jw3gX4
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.943Please respect copyright.PENANAik9QNvl0XF
943Please respect copyright.PENANA7gFsUud0a0
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.943Please respect copyright.PENANAiy7WuuLI8a
943Please respect copyright.PENANAcXrS8MzPmN
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.943Please respect copyright.PENANAlzA1u2CpUV
943Please respect copyright.PENANASDHHWXH5xy
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"943Please respect copyright.PENANAHGIMAt6Jsu
943Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7upNIUooy
He tries to nod but he can't.943Please respect copyright.PENANA9L3ayv2AuV
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.943Please respect copyright.PENANApRMYOcw8iS
943Please respect copyright.PENANAUrBOF2mxCB
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.943Please respect copyright.PENANAvxr6fbPgog
943Please respect copyright.PENANAMtPNGPWnZh
He looks up into mine.943Please respect copyright.PENANAjajTDsaShV
943Please respect copyright.PENANASM8KPmjMSS
"Don't leave me." He whispers.943Please respect copyright.PENANAJ73ti4EX8x
943Please respect copyright.PENANAGGF6u4GJH9
"Stay awake." I tell him.943Please respect copyright.PENANAp7oZOyE6l0
943Please respect copyright.PENANAdvL0P6RXED
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.943Please respect copyright.PENANACHQYpji0AM
943Please respect copyright.PENANATQqKmNos12
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.943Please respect copyright.PENANA5ReqYiGftn
943Please respect copyright.PENANAEhQFObkXBg
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"943Please respect copyright.PENANApoOvfl48Fx
943Please respect copyright.PENANAuD9eUHrPZV
He doesn't reply.943Please respect copyright.PENANAIVDs5C7oHu
943Please respect copyright.PENANATLciTRXPjS
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.943Please respect copyright.PENANAZPfOny4Jgl
943Please respect copyright.PENANAYs32RJsTKF
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.943Please respect copyright.PENANAhlgjOUE3P6
943Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3JZECu4fY
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"943Please respect copyright.PENANAx6BvnAVhoj
943Please respect copyright.PENANA7mtV1JE5qI
His eyes blink open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.943Please respect copyright.PENANAEjAiAqjiTI
943Please respect copyright.PENANAU0gmol7B1w
"Stay awake." I told him softly.943Please respect copyright.PENANA8IcrN0TzPe
943Please respect copyright.PENANATcAxiSB2r1
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.943Please respect copyright.PENANAiZJrR2T87J
943Please respect copyright.PENANAvFVofoOT02
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.943Please respect copyright.PENANAywv8vkX9Fb
943Please respect copyright.PENANAxznewj9V4C
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.943Please respect copyright.PENANAkZwQW2kHY2
943Please respect copyright.PENANAe6DANOdTuk
"Kiss me," he repeats.943Please respect copyright.PENANAAt7bByjj8s
943Please respect copyright.PENANA3LOxLEYChm
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.943Please respect copyright.PENANAayIwIjdBEB
943Please respect copyright.PENANAZpdU54yuzS
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.943Please respect copyright.PENANA2fVeZfoHnK
943Please respect copyright.PENANAY7CQ8FRche
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.943Please respect copyright.PENANAkS8LbxQjVg
943Please respect copyright.PENANA4VFTquX1ai
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.943Please respect copyright.PENANAWo9BuGntpo
943Please respect copyright.PENANAwaZvzpeSpc
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.943Please respect copyright.PENANAa2Mmm7pJX4
943Please respect copyright.PENANAIQqIaSKdQX
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.943Please respect copyright.PENANACDnpRUcoal
943Please respect copyright.PENANA74YVyOtDeO
Electricity races through me and lingers.943Please respect copyright.PENANAxvjz4RebR9
943Please respect copyright.PENANAluHIiJRaCI
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.943Please respect copyright.PENANA58okmbtZtd
943Please respect copyright.PENANAtTIBU9lVxI
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.943Please respect copyright.PENANAqz82gmxHV0
943Please respect copyright.PENANAFAAMctXn4U
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.943Please respect copyright.PENANA1awX1T7NWu
943Please respect copyright.PENANAemgpbuA6Hs
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.943Please respect copyright.PENANAATtKIJuUQM
943Please respect copyright.PENANArFgRx4L7jT
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.943Please respect copyright.PENANAc5wGga0riU
943Please respect copyright.PENANACqtXd3fJjQ
"Jeremy?"943Please respect copyright.PENANAfEHCZdGDzE
943Please respect copyright.PENANAGp0IxeumXi
I shake my head, not believing.943Please respect copyright.PENANAMjIZXH8QO4
943Please respect copyright.PENANAeMtMHL7wSE
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"943Please respect copyright.PENANAkCQsThFEEx
943Please respect copyright.PENANAYcfKjDZbQU
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.943Please respect copyright.PENANAX9uv3Udxj7
943Please respect copyright.PENANALCMVZ1bKn8
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.943Please respect copyright.PENANALJAr32pQDN
943Please respect copyright.PENANAJCeDOBDaLl
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 943Please respect copyright.PENANAA4TEDwrgLC
