PROLOGUE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIVKeWK0aF
He's shaking underneath my grasp.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Pl6NqwQHW
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMTHhnC4cX
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnIndLWPBG
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dakFDDbdP
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgLNbLR46X
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzEJD08JKT
I smile bitterly.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62h8FtydBW
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ294Z1K5X2w
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFuwKGnVHH
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1up7GrUZV
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyvmj6LEOX
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmBIGasSe3
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJNzRLhMg1
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCXwBMDqY1
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnMJgr5xeR
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBHMDNY5Nu
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa6SBHyI6a
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVqnZJcj5Z
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk7ODuOiok
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB9gsFEoj5
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.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa99N9FGWJ
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2spLHe1i5y
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQU6eoqMfK
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEQBD5MzDf
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnddfFUlIfO
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5anYhEtM7
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6g8CWQLHO
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOa82hjuPI
I must at all cost keep him awake.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3y1u6aUVm
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9JBZcccSd
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long do I have to wait?"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0xTaISrcg
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4wpiYQQl6
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJLUTMJTVr
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh7wA0aZNU
"Not that long baby I promise."1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2Q789t4X6
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkPqi8JMrk
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci3hI3GB3I
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ksejZaXYT
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZHZdqEasc
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13THaIn8Lo
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bfPFwFU1f
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi7a3wNvc3
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8x6MmPCyN
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TV7fK8LQ3
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyOakKZlbA
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7dWY0DwvN
I frown at him.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlbjUipfog
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynxQqgPtmi
"Don't say that."1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw132xFeAvy
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovvndn3oxL
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTf9At4fuG
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KApNc3F6j
I gasp.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0gT0ndTl2
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG8Y2fgPA5
"Jere stop!"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0Zq1QZj91
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreUXRysJIf
He goes on.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvynOCxDnpt
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EStBB4b4u
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6QigxmiMY
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyjVf6Quvy
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXT8H5xeOd
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWSQDmqPSO
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EHk0zJtAl
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeUROMsBWY
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq0E8jBekx
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKHBq8AuAr
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3B7NGlBFZd
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYO30cOqXu
"I won't."1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8vrhlsUgO
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JD5Y5ofN7
He obeys, watching me soberly.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bxqIkRmfD
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5Db67jMzL
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEgQ4B6bEU
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a5EFPNKwe
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7DrmO0IR2
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjLOR25XRp
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKXdXIFpbv
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fdBDltvkd
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJSpzy6GVf
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwKKzxY0su
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNmeHuPdFW
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotow3vwWh0
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCnQJxiz83
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiooXzCftsP
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WPfxsZu5L
He tries to nod but he can't.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtTWyH9wqN
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI907WVREW
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBXR7rVLk9
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmqmTOnmXE
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoauTzp3n8
He looks up into mine.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIC94N9P7B
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cGiHYt3hD
"Don't leave me." He whispers.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsKdqiUADk
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBq3CBZRXWX
"Stay awake." I tell him.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrY44hSOPP
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ax8Cea0Dv
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3yWvjZNlK
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbvbmqrIX8
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZdSv0edRg
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOQC1ZgRwk
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqYqySJ035
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREojMaXFkf
He doesn't reply.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqUCVruYVr
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgGUyCbCgw
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWG4w2jbZK
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbY6iZI40O
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5zOPeqElE
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2XrtrU32K
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgebLtDkxD
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOTY55APzB
His eyes open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsk1p8HD335
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddZrZGfzKj
"Stay awake." I told him softly.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtBhdTungP
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMMq5h5xT8
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINt5bFCiWq
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEes8Z11mkV
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItEkLv50KD
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB14lgAI7X2
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRii2CXATJT
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2d26w83Kd
"Kiss me," he repeats.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThNZxm350m
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU4NTat4oF
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqBso0gvix
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb2CJfXTFy
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiFirkmSc8
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt31wiVbJi
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdqKjUysAm
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDzNqEbs6G
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9ET8szH7b
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHhhVNPqyY
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgeIea67Yg
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprPCJHNRUw
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYejdJGXEIV
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBbwrrMBDm
Electricity races through me and lingers.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7zkIeuaNm
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcV7oTF8B9
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndxi9URXp7
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqIzwEjXpJ
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2jLBafd2x
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiPpxuiCDT
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bBOc75Few
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqijuB7xK1p
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7cVpuUWxd
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4No6BbKNP
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡittTwS3lpf
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBDzMVh5LP
"Jeremy?"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bfkdiJu5y
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAInRfOPuC
I shake my head, not believing.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg0O0e0oiX
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyPBDNgIAe
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvvZAl3tDf
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnIO2Wxr14
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGRDJDLNNq
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Iw3xtFpB8
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7UlWQvE1e
1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWVLMMfZf5
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me.1053Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOrivXTv4A
