I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.487Please respect copyright.PENANAaHCq3kxDQp
He's shaking underneath my grasp.487Please respect copyright.PENANAYWnXFjFjz6
487Please respect copyright.PENANAuNcTt3k7b4
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.487Please respect copyright.PENANAdfoUumAwPC
487Please respect copyright.PENANApVlV1jSZVx
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.487Please respect copyright.PENANATIzR55b5ch
487Please respect copyright.PENANApUgtbVevQ8
I smile bitterly.487Please respect copyright.PENANAs8tbejXuZp
487Please respect copyright.PENANAMO5G8vAgiM
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.487Please respect copyright.PENANAVQNtJC7p2y
487Please respect copyright.PENANAhw5w4ju0iU
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.487Please respect copyright.PENANAIa8ga4495S
487Please respect copyright.PENANAV5Eb0nBQqf
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.487Please respect copyright.PENANAf5dQpxRZxo
487Please respect copyright.PENANA413x6sebAr
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."487Please respect copyright.PENANArsHgRFVd8O
487Please respect copyright.PENANALNDb8JfPo3
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.487Please respect copyright.PENANArS0gAOwEND
487Please respect copyright.PENANAJw8Kd67XWi
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.487Please respect copyright.PENANAZKsFabNcMP
487Please respect copyright.PENANAqmuYDfxWXP
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.487Please respect copyright.PENANAtVOg0BYTkG
487Please respect copyright.PENANAcwEfu5XzAx
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.487Please respect copyright.PENANAJLSEXZdXBJ
487Please respect copyright.PENANACasjS3LD7I
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.487Please respect copyright.PENANAyQGPaSWMl4
487Please respect copyright.PENANAqxziDQxXww
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.487Please respect copyright.PENANA1TJE4zbwgx
487Please respect copyright.PENANABd2xzUT21r
I must at all cost keep him awake.487Please respect copyright.PENANAjmsE7VK7me
487Please respect copyright.PENANAmREome75Rj
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"487Please respect copyright.PENANAAeUAc2ca4q
487Please respect copyright.PENANAMHnEEjJLqp
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.487Please respect copyright.PENANApCOSiktVdQ
487Please respect copyright.PENANABbMRjNYlMB
"Not that long baby I promise."487Please respect copyright.PENANAHJ4RBusWhr
487Please respect copyright.PENANAsbKZouGORO
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.487Please respect copyright.PENANAMw6a9Z0ZXf
487Please respect copyright.PENANAiPhGx0MDYL
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.487Please respect copyright.PENANA5phu2e8Sca
487Please respect copyright.PENANAoczMBrAZJf
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.487Please respect copyright.PENANA3PNHTU7k3j
487Please respect copyright.PENANArtu3aKKWiO
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.487Please respect copyright.PENANAyB0sW1FSBY
487Please respect copyright.PENANAYVUQ5zijP7
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.487Please respect copyright.PENANAq690KXVFRW
487Please respect copyright.PENANAUFkWtfFmyX
I frown at him.487Please respect copyright.PENANAyRBzgLQwAI
487Please respect copyright.PENANAodDoyyaBdw
"Don't say that."487Please respect copyright.PENANAquz4IhP9k9
487Please respect copyright.PENANAZh088b0uS9
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.487Please respect copyright.PENANAmZgNaLOuvz
487Please respect copyright.PENANAl9BE5a8EHz
I gasp.487Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9oy60Q82Y
487Please respect copyright.PENANA6ttYnebUzj
"Jere stop!"487Please respect copyright.PENANAJNHP4Sxi1q
487Please respect copyright.PENANAPo0n4yExdA
He goes on.487Please respect copyright.PENANAaCCJYVzbLu
487Please respect copyright.PENANAydPKgF1BjF
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.487Please respect copyright.PENANAmkHSAfH0Hw
487Please respect copyright.PENANACD8D6FhQSS
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.487Please respect copyright.PENANArg0D7AVhST
487Please respect copyright.PENANAzevWSV9Ent
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"487Please respect copyright.PENANA6mZXI42Jmj
487Please respect copyright.PENANAgYRXKbcQYj
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.487Please respect copyright.PENANA5MYNHl3QwV
487Please respect copyright.PENANAzKoim1hv8V
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.487Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZhfIUNUyS
487Please respect copyright.PENANArjZUwHEvCw
"I won't."487Please respect copyright.PENANAh9FBj9lCJx
487Please respect copyright.PENANADhTdeZtkfy
He obeys, watching me soberly.487Please respect copyright.PENANAs38jBHXXY5
487Please respect copyright.PENANAjtOzhlenPk
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.487Please respect copyright.PENANAhxbE6Mimw4
487Please respect copyright.PENANAcfM5DJ8xYO
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.487Please respect copyright.PENANAfbYwDJnBQ0
487Please respect copyright.PENANAJrR82IBN9e
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.487Please respect copyright.PENANA2u5ZStK95j
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.487Please respect copyright.PENANANvJdNII9lz
487Please respect copyright.PENANAs4vf3QwRXC
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.487Please respect copyright.PENANAzjvKYFOyaL
487Please respect copyright.PENANApLFVD9adcv
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.487Please respect copyright.PENANAYsz1As49CO
487Please respect copyright.PENANAmEHVIFRU2N
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"487Please respect copyright.PENANAyFer8Ch1ly
487Please respect copyright.PENANAgp5HcS2LKu
He tries to nod but he can't.487Please respect copyright.PENANAbxya017UOx
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.487Please respect copyright.PENANAB7InAamPLV
487Please respect copyright.PENANAjbWUuAMP3N
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.487Please respect copyright.PENANAqbs5zdoaQj
487Please respect copyright.PENANACLQM79Z8fm
He looks up into mine.487Please respect copyright.PENANAA2hw8Kne2j
487Please respect copyright.PENANAXShpZSb1qc
"Don't leave me." He whispers.487Please respect copyright.PENANAknlpUgJXeo
487Please respect copyright.PENANAFRK6BstaUe
"Stay awake." I tell him.487Please respect copyright.PENANATyyIBB6Lrt
487Please respect copyright.PENANA1SL4OLGGxe
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.487Please respect copyright.PENANAuYvjuzV9vV
487Please respect copyright.PENANAg38g21aNIh
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.487Please respect copyright.PENANApjJwRt1vXr
487Please respect copyright.PENANA5EanGd22UJ
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"487Please respect copyright.PENANAq7246RnGYz
487Please respect copyright.PENANARtdw5dGdg9
He doesn't reply.487Please respect copyright.PENANAIqbaxcJl5i
487Please respect copyright.PENANAmXtWUKyL6N
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.487Please respect copyright.PENANA8gc1Mj9hwa
487Please respect copyright.PENANAQWFbdNRtdo
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.487Please respect copyright.PENANAdXh9Y3KUwN
487Please respect copyright.PENANAx1ODqxDfka
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"487Please respect copyright.PENANAg0EGlXHeGd
487Please respect copyright.PENANAB1onBRLDCv
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.487Please respect copyright.PENANAj1SHMDioSV
487Please respect copyright.PENANARa8sEQO9l2
"Stay awake." I told him softly.487Please respect copyright.PENANAHkTfREnO1D
487Please respect copyright.PENANAnLHbguWoxJ
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.487Please respect copyright.PENANA9HnkTtauJV
487Please respect copyright.PENANAu4CWrSEfe2
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.487Please respect copyright.PENANAmPFDJgRZfn
487Please respect copyright.PENANAUAhAZdz2p8
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.487Please respect copyright.PENANAqF4q7VBlqq
487Please respect copyright.PENANAZLIOZA1OQ8
"Kiss me," he repeats.487Please respect copyright.PENANAXlTkHTxxMs
487Please respect copyright.PENANAegQzjjaNrS
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.487Please respect copyright.PENANACxyZFOAgnP
487Please respect copyright.PENANAHLaTYMren0
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.487Please respect copyright.PENANAOd863x5jDR
487Please respect copyright.PENANApGDf9D4c0u
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.487Please respect copyright.PENANAadaHulTnOK
487Please respect copyright.PENANA4k2RF2yvRE
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.487Please respect copyright.PENANAq9B8Vfo30P
487Please respect copyright.PENANAFi25zfi8d2
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.487Please respect copyright.PENANABgIx2d0oUT
487Please respect copyright.PENANAMcHTXLsH0o
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.487Please respect copyright.PENANAnxTpsBdKID
487Please respect copyright.PENANAY13A9eiG2o
Electricity races through me and lingers.487Please respect copyright.PENANAmrIDs7KkGA
487Please respect copyright.PENANA7AEaRz6NVo
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.487Please respect copyright.PENANAvFVcSUL6Du
487Please respect copyright.PENANAvPm3F544zT
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.487Please respect copyright.PENANA6EWjcKunE7
487Please respect copyright.PENANAN27cxWj4s7
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.487Please respect copyright.PENANAKztjtpSXcF
487Please respect copyright.PENANAalO0H4fo2m
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.487Please respect copyright.PENANAYnOvpinQic
487Please respect copyright.PENANAJSCEjkCDwa
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.487Please respect copyright.PENANAgFIQE0cnce
487Please respect copyright.PENANAsNH5FVW1vz
"Jeremy?"487Please respect copyright.PENANArq8jGzmtFZ
487Please respect copyright.PENANA7M1l0bpf4b
I shake my head, not believing.487Please respect copyright.PENANAOtEfaGdIsF
487Please respect copyright.PENANA58V2wtyzn6
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"487Please respect copyright.PENANAphSilE1MOC
487Please respect copyright.PENANAOcKMofyfKD
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.487Please respect copyright.PENANABSMrifIq9i
487Please respect copyright.PENANAUbut8AeyWS
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.487Please respect copyright.PENANA0BupC1x6Ip
487Please respect copyright.PENANA2OH9Aq1kcl
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 487Please respect copyright.PENANA1AgAGbLVPC
