PROLOGUE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gojOMETlt
He's shaking underneath my grasp.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsroWSSUMH
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJIYL4pnr9
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCLUvObKzj
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1FV8iIyVk
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmQT39Ngiy
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHLA2VDmcS
I smile bitterly.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIVzwG0vFA
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIiSUlILFr
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVrWFM4XAU
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygwAe2iDuC
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcPKLh8rqG
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpBCXrkeJt
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VcB9wMJD7
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDimbBmco8
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNcQu4x6pK
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0Rgay9txs
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5TrkzGCNa
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhCoeslxQf
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4esNLy2iK
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFrvlihrui
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.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxyFdvFyk3
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zIkTbzWuD
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8E0RsRPGB
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86OyQZrjPd
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzct8HUTJb
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSXDzzxRIx
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncLu57ncq6
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HjHb829Aq
I must at all cost keep him awake.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9M6tdrWi1
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qset5twr7
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEZpMbZhOM
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHHgmeKozH
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjLKLy1yJp
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XdvaCqLjt
"Not that long baby I promise."1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XIN6JK1iU
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHukdvifMc
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkMNYoAPed
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblIOkUbtMk
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QCLUxuYHO
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqnWaUzixJ
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8oWinf8Cd
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTviC2Y5Uw
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTyXOOFPa1
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2AitlvdPm
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMkladfV98
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhQCyXMu3y
I frown at him.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4iHCiZnv6
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kww3az6y5
"Don't say that."1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X7uHkrPGd
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarOxDtlfjr
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzQ7dmuONg
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUD31D4CWvX
I gasp.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImZCEPJsxg
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv9yBZKC1i
"Jere stop!"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0EVyqB0qf
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaybDbq7mLC
He goes on.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN9sDG4llU
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsrXL4jF5z
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNn4zV1whx6
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4ScVOrdZM
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2T0FmEPNl
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftoNmSZFma
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BJ93aFmjr
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeEmeaLwxv
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh5fT0OqqD
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPaNeTh6Pa
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLo5A8sqCh
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhXPgfmAtX
"I won't."1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSa4fEufh2j
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PTDfS8dbV
He obeys, watching me soberly.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLvef5lWGP
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltNdyEGwsl
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYyGfkhDuD
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVP9mvz9WS
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJj9IGRwag
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQB5dHNUme
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PmSIxZ2qw
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILbufIZhMk
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoPt7Mh7us
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8jFzczr1R
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJxHXsNXwF
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x4pI2FM5m
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj1vxaSOQy
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQMhEKuD6Y
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8gMOBysXD
He tries to nod but he can't.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12qUzJrThc
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TeeElgEpp
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzifJE6URuJ
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1ltCCe7HC
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZU08LiStH
He looks up into mine.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XBgsJJUDD
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XauI4KRzw
"Don't leave me." He whispers.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81tStgnP4d
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67v5WqeNd9
"Stay awake." I tell him.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCFGC1xUvB
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmgIK60fLR
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph3sJslzXI
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0zmxPjJok
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4pGDqNoYz
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2YLcztzOv
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvGqKqDSsz
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVkM6t6kBl
He doesn't reply.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDEfKeX3eb
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIIKWnRf4C
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR2S6MtRDA
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXvX9J81P7
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKXeGfhsaA
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW2MsHGdI2
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uSGe01LLi
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcFPTM0KIE
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD28zNlefTP
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsM3MAUtpH
"Stay awake." I told him softly.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY2vgggGeR
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMaP3cNu9B
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeewW0inLhM
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsORmOTerP
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4B6gCTVRe
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsgjAC44B8
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgBX3UgOci
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k6T2HVBld
"Kiss me," he repeats.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzS3so9mQw
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvHbghJ0DZ
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvpHWoIq6d
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVyO5xCHed
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFaxW5rB2O
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwuzpdG6FL
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDoVByy1Pj
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh4jRRy6KP
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7IiW3zc9i
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewIxQY8d96
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWMIJgIwdt
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRaCVveBVi
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAaVEYevFb
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwBN3q45yp
Electricity races through me and lingers.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9vzeLGaWl
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzdBI2cPiw
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFHTP4Ymyt
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3uvdD7RlU
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy3uGoJ4N9
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuaLX6iKM6
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQULsMmJGC
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5Ohl9KsCY
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOIzEJpm1L
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWJ65nlJWX
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN8PyeoWAk
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj34FDN6Ez
"Jeremy?"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr5LuGE5y3
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDFddOiZ2w
I shake my head, not believing.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfjieVQTHg
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHq89DIZht
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQrwnv7BsF
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsnmAYR2hX
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJzBk8jl2G
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcrCVksfd8
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMC1lKCgyC
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcn70UH7MTq
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me.1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmS76tEJNc
1055Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJhkpM73kD
