PROLOGUE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpRlYekV7f
He's shaking underneath my grasp.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIfmMyILru
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJGMHcBud3
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZwkbmeHlU
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7vplPpQU2
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhnqrhZmth
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGnRsxWW2H
I smile bitterly.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEgTalGeDR
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniesL3CN0v
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78r8BdT6FB
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMr8fRDaBT
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzK9akJeXvM
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPkatr6icv
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHoNN6TsXM
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYo0zjU3Am
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWVdWEjGoQ
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLalDA9TMu
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fq48dwmyC
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjgb1yevQF
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQeYVtk47V
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IKXUrnrLn
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.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHlJVb1tip
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKt0zhWZpTT
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVkxuaqCop
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8VXlrelFP
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDFeuJLe5M
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xi9oTs0kt
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59XJgIM2Zn
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HtbJcfLw1
I must at all cost keep him awake.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBawqO1hTvm
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvgxzwPjK9
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqnOX1upDq
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2MCwy0swS
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNAX4MJ0kb
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBW4c3HkiI
"Not that long baby I promise."951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ4HJEEjRe
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43sK7V0Rjf
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79kb7aWs05
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NtPeiXJyW
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOO12qP53L
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGvL6FxY5m
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4V6zHX731
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaBvQQ39in
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZizUtNRtrQ
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe273NFmzRY
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2TpSTgYsx
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg0bgKgOne
I frown at him.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEal00dRPhk
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxUVCfT0ed
"Don't say that."951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8meGxtbvI
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuVxx1P1t3
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OxONaNMot
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IruD2bTyM
I gasp.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xeFvMWpx1
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxWxnWtwyz
"Jere stop!"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCfiEugu7o
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXGGHSt2DU
He goes on.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuHTqNFMdq
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7WYTj0Y9k
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0BlycZElL
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxGZbhx6Yv
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WhlcdD4iE
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrB9WiXtLOc
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fCXMdopSf
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqjZdpnsrH
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgKuCBSnn2
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbe2dpNFp7
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGRAmL9QqU
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ5cjrJzOV
"I won't."951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEuZhYoPrL
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl8d1qQYW7
He obeys, watching me soberly.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPN82UA92wf
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1WHq99Uk7
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaCUre2jF8
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IWNwXzRWo
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNRFKbcnkT
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG1BXfwi5p
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLO2tschKc
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUu78AgkWF
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2dWlZqjp4
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eAkurzn42
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo59JHW3DJW
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgkKUvDuT1
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOV9q9lwRC
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4LlacF0cY
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHel32KcrH
He tries to nod but he can't.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7gJtzfDox
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWakJFPSpa
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf18N4MfBC
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtiE1xlcqL
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsCsdKBqZT
He looks up into mine.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZYGYClODT
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdlQJ4ou8b
"Don't leave me." He whispers.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvbwDPyniS
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxCJKaGNQZ
"Stay awake." I tell him.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtu1A5bHcF
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2dxOHB1Do
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwB4oNdaQDA
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8U6kXz3gc
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlWv5XxZCm
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbC9dkqBFL
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5BwNfVq0A
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmyTOUVQeb
He doesn't reply.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXN685BOJT
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4hZrvlXiP
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mDGJ9B1bX
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Zw59vjbYZ
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFAo4WYrP4
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2I06HqdOr
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UvS7TDrqg
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZWWf3bnun
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXZ177kKLj
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26J6wREkIp
"Stay awake." I told him softly.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrfOogxP9b
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunVAAHLBfV
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pygKEaIfx
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUw031F57rp
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9g8pZxlZn
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVkpjRI9V4
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgz6hdTS9Cl
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDG03szrah
"Kiss me," he repeats.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS14MgYG8Np
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTYCNdXcsH
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP8hT9HfvU
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz85iMKveO
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwT1d88yZFb
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEtOlJ9bxH
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHGIbv0Lhq
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtsnPC3WTK
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfjYWTVJU3
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMjDLh1dMP
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQXjy4AbTb
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwforve3ApD
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9oN5sd4iZ
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsCBGOEBxl
Electricity races through me and lingers.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQO68j9Wxe
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpnfrHo3wS
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9X7Sxyq4h
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADhSbGROjS
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYFP3MANcK
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8r6MKqTcj
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXpivfSyoi
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnNbTLwMU7
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRqEzL7mRL
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJCOStd2Tx
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DezVPDFU2
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ03ZOzf9M
"Jeremy?"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOxWpLk0DL
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxDvJZOOHD
I shake my head, not believing.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE7ptWsUIn
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkd5BVmPKE
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iewJZ0C7l
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM1fw7bdaF
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkhfrwI7mT
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB5tqcIprh
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIckxcc95Ee
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYkr2ZL9WE
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me.951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQQFLSvYep
951Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgh8lj2PEh
