JERE
I stare down at his moon lit face, worried.777Please respect copyright.PENANAFJwtLsSFxC
He's shaking underneath my grasp.777Please respect copyright.PENANAUHCKGnThXl
777Please respect copyright.PENANAAOKbN1JlQU
"Livia," he says. His voice is soft.777Please respect copyright.PENANAdMIKA4Ol62
777Please respect copyright.PENANATCLXlmgTkc
I run the palm of my hand down his cheek, feeling the cold tears that have managed to escape without me knowing.777Please respect copyright.PENANA5bxwUqcuJt
777Please respect copyright.PENANADdMfnkvjL7
I smile bitterly.777Please respect copyright.PENANA6LEtXbs2R2
777Please respect copyright.PENANAiFzuMSYyGr
"It's alright now Jere." I kiss his eyelid lightly as more tears threatened to fall. I tasted the salt.777Please respect copyright.PENANAiPwa8lE1o5
777Please respect copyright.PENANA7wFwoIaxMh
"Liv," he calls again, his voice wavering this time.777Please respect copyright.PENANA956mgeT9oa
777Please respect copyright.PENANAbY1juSAYnI
I continue to stroke his cheek, trying to ignore the amount of blood coming from his side, where I press my free hand onto.777Please respect copyright.PENANA1oE3oOgKe0
777Please respect copyright.PENANA0mGreSEyfW
"Just breathe Jere, are you still breathing? In and out just like I told you."777Please respect copyright.PENANAQq2HYaecbk
777Please respect copyright.PENANAv77KgXwGsh
He struggles to take staggering breaths, obeying me.777Please respect copyright.PENANAYVAObAJsN0
777Please respect copyright.PENANAHR7cmUVFow
I look around, seeing if the ambulance had arrived yet. Faintly I heard sirens, but they still sounded far off.777Please respect copyright.PENANAcF2GgOjP8a
777Please respect copyright.PENANAbgwfNJD1ca
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.777Please respect copyright.PENANAVKV9Y4iCzV
777Please respect copyright.PENANAvcmXv5bVYP
I'm scared of how his each breath seem to grow more difficult then the next.777Please respect copyright.PENANAFpC23oOnob
777Please respect copyright.PENANABeOI2KOM77
I'm scared to look down at my bloodied hand, which determined his lifeline.777Please respect copyright.PENANAROlxuJ7YMQ
777Please respect copyright.PENANAk5hCvGyq9n
I'm scared my Jere will drift off if I don't keep him awake.777Please respect copyright.PENANAG7YSAGbHwi
777Please respect copyright.PENANA91g117zbOX
I must at all cost keep him awake.777Please respect copyright.PENANACFdxR2s08b
777Please respect copyright.PENANAS2hTF0urxc
"Livia, how long?" He manages to croak out. "How long must I wait?"777Please respect copyright.PENANANLITuDiLf1
777Please respect copyright.PENANAfkl1Wvwe1h
Feigning a smile I continue my charade.777Please respect copyright.PENANAgXsTxSe7Ww
777Please respect copyright.PENANAw7lguxY4cy
"Not that long baby I promise."777Please respect copyright.PENANAtM0M0KbY6e
777Please respect copyright.PENANAzsS5qTxL7W
Any other human being would have passed out by now, unlike my Jere.777Please respect copyright.PENANApA8oOyZleN
777Please respect copyright.PENANAjCxv7plusd
My Jere laughs, somehow managing the energy to do so.777Please respect copyright.PENANAe4AWvdSyvG
777Please respect copyright.PENANARYrGE8GjTC
He then breaks into coughing spasms from exerting himself too much.777Please respect copyright.PENANAVqTa6mHFjM
777Please respect copyright.PENANA4daMn3kVqS
But he continues to laugh, not knowing how to stop.777Please respect copyright.PENANAeD0NzjDYWo
777Please respect copyright.PENANAQeI3SXMKUB
"I'm going to die aren't I?" He laughs.777Please respect copyright.PENANAoBvSMTCy1W
777Please respect copyright.PENANApHspFtqFHD
I frown at him.777Please respect copyright.PENANAxRwkkCb8pC
777Please respect copyright.PENANApAQEwKuGdm
"Don't say that."777Please respect copyright.PENANAIMzdLRrcRV
777Please respect copyright.PENANAIGvSorvlkm
He laughs hysterically now then coughs up blood in response.777Please respect copyright.PENANAbIIQfSGiB3
777Please respect copyright.PENANAkJL2dItmBI
I gasp.777Please respect copyright.PENANA4kuvGPhd2A
777Please respect copyright.PENANAspI6Amjkwk
"Jere stop!"777Please respect copyright.PENANApisK05R1hn
777Please respect copyright.PENANAGJHGuCrWsI
He goes on.777Please respect copyright.PENANAZO37y2byoK
777Please respect copyright.PENANAmUBWrKLzOK
"I'm better off dead anyway. I've always wondered what it would be like." He says this all dream like, his eyes narrowing.777Please respect copyright.PENANAZLT7f93FfY
777Please respect copyright.PENANAR5N5bUtZjn
Forgetting all about being calm, tears stream down my face, as I yell at him frustratingly.777Please respect copyright.PENANArabqmbdOsd
777Please respect copyright.PENANAp7yLKZdLpb
"Jere stop it you're not going to die! I won't let you!"777Please respect copyright.PENANAaI1k9qt599
777Please respect copyright.PENANA0zB4Jwy1NB
Jere chuckles a little but his eyes don't. He stares up at me bitterly and reaches to brush away my tears.777Please respect copyright.PENANAe1CrloXIDw
777Please respect copyright.PENANA9wLypJ2fuK
"Don't laugh." I tell him again softly.777Please respect copyright.PENANAVvx3H3VFcr
777Please respect copyright.PENANAANYypOlJUa
"I won't."777Please respect copyright.PENANAZbWhaUT2cd
777Please respect copyright.PENANArR3gJNWspm
He obeys, watching me soberly.777Please respect copyright.PENANAL3mZiLLrAk
777Please respect copyright.PENANAdfJ4731BdG
"I don't want to leave you." Jere says in a barely audible voice.777Please respect copyright.PENANA7oADsIg4gh
777Please respect copyright.PENANAOxSoc8w8Hd
All the laughing has put him in an even worse condition than before.777Please respect copyright.PENANA93ZwqKyCK3
777Please respect copyright.PENANARGenupOozP
I don't even try to hide my distress face from him anymore.777Please respect copyright.PENANALVSbzlhJ8v
Specks of blood covers his daunt face from his coughing spasms earlier.777Please respect copyright.PENANAHr5fsfjjJi
777Please respect copyright.PENANAw1mt69tBEf
His already weak body sinks heavily into me while I try to keep him comfortable.777Please respect copyright.PENANADyJcErkwHG
777Please respect copyright.PENANAuFJbL3T4BM
"Livia. I don't want you to leave me," he says a bit louder.777Please respect copyright.PENANAMRsC7HuwwA
777Please respect copyright.PENANAMloCynCiir
"Shhh I know baby, just don't leave me okay?"777Please respect copyright.PENANAzWu1bdinlp
777Please respect copyright.PENANA9MZWOUodod
He tries to nod but he can't.777Please respect copyright.PENANAgnmY6cigqu
He continues to try but I hold him steady so he wouldn't overdo himself again.777Please respect copyright.PENANAOsBn3fNM9c
777Please respect copyright.PENANAYcqT0os4cy
I look into those beautiful, moss green eyes that I love so much.777Please respect copyright.PENANA1EFa4VU9kZ
777Please respect copyright.PENANA4tTQy6FNnE
He looks up into mine.777Please respect copyright.PENANAVVIkTULMRM
777Please respect copyright.PENANAWE2YLLwRz9
"Don't leave me." He whispers.777Please respect copyright.PENANAoOku6IMFzt
777Please respect copyright.PENANApG1GKqp4OG
"Stay awake." I tell him.777Please respect copyright.PENANAiHZyQS22fP
777Please respect copyright.PENANAIIDVhIGA4X
"I'm tired, how long?" He asks.777Please respect copyright.PENANAcpRsHHUSc7
777Please respect copyright.PENANAiSVhTnnuTe
The siren lights are visible now. They'll be here in any moment.777Please respect copyright.PENANAryovpjCjeA
777Please respect copyright.PENANAHMlFOcLEMW
"You're almost there baby, just hang on okay?"777Please respect copyright.PENANAI3zOBmjv7R
777Please respect copyright.PENANAYB60fep7yD
He doesn't reply.777Please respect copyright.PENANAOzdvqZFpQU
777Please respect copyright.PENANAUpFpk8oEQY
I hurriedly check if he's still breathing. It's shallow now, faint.777Please respect copyright.PENANALTePgtDbUr
777Please respect copyright.PENANAo4qrvwzzRa
Looking at him, I lay my hand on his cheek again and gently swipe my thumb across it. His eyes are nearly closed.777Please respect copyright.PENANAuR7hq4zl3N
777Please respect copyright.PENANAMRnMfUDQno
"Jere, answer me. Jere!"777Please respect copyright.PENANAu5nUKAIOqj
777Please respect copyright.PENANAZmaju4YLMa
His eyes blink open slightly at the desperation in my voice, ready to obey but unable to find the energy to comply.777Please respect copyright.PENANARq6ApkxDxa
777Please respect copyright.PENANAHl3ryNWVnB
"Stay awake." I told him softly.777Please respect copyright.PENANAimLTiNUwhC
777Please respect copyright.PENANAKO3HCYrJ9v
"I will." His mouth reads, but he closes his eyes anyway. He's smiles briefly as I struggled to see through my tears.777Please respect copyright.PENANAHzhzOgsWhQ
777Please respect copyright.PENANA5YVIm4sZYu
"Kiss," he whispers inaudibly.777Please respect copyright.PENANA51OSuWXhLs
777Please respect copyright.PENANAjIOwwD8slb
I shake my head not knowing whether to laugh at his corniness right now or cry.777Please respect copyright.PENANAERn61YbXil
777Please respect copyright.PENANAx2TvcXeIn8
"Kiss me," he repeats.777Please respect copyright.PENANAH9Ei288eo9
777Please respect copyright.PENANAN2MooiU1Q2
I don't waste time, I need to keep him awake until the ambulance gets here.777Please respect copyright.PENANA54cCjfejTK
777Please respect copyright.PENANA0UkiyBjQ2T
With one hand still holding his wound, I use my free hand to cradle his face.777Please respect copyright.PENANAZYOHNa1Fi9
777Please respect copyright.PENANAPdZuleBYqk
His eyes open briefly before I dropped my lips down on his.777Please respect copyright.PENANAiIzeVJMbFw
777Please respect copyright.PENANAaqahaPNQZ8
I kiss him gently, ignoring the metallic taste of blood.777Please respect copyright.PENANAwtd9ChwHyp
777Please respect copyright.PENANApxNw8wuuBr
Using energy I didn't believe was still in him, he wraps one arm around me and deepens the kiss.777Please respect copyright.PENANAZY7VUClruG
777Please respect copyright.PENANAk1JPXb2JWX
He passionately draws me in, almost making me forget that he was still in pain for a second.777Please respect copyright.PENANAam8vVLEzap
777Please respect copyright.PENANAcyX52BMQBc
Electricity races through me and lingers.777Please respect copyright.PENANAm8ac9OwCAF
777Please respect copyright.PENANARe1dglAmfS
I cling to him for dear life, knowing that I can never let go.777Please respect copyright.PENANAiQzo91gm54
777Please respect copyright.PENANAX4PBsaSQ5z
But reality hits me hard when his tug on my lips slows.777Please respect copyright.PENANA6e1Yw7H3vr
777Please respect copyright.PENANAFPDBksrcqR
I can literally feel all the energy drain out of him as we break apart.777Please respect copyright.PENANAcYbeFInCnt
777Please respect copyright.PENANAldU96Hle78
He suddenly goes limp in my arms.777Please respect copyright.PENANAOZ2C6Rz3Xw
777Please respect copyright.PENANATx3CAL8mFh
"Jere?" I call to him as my eyes widened.777Please respect copyright.PENANA2MO2uQuLqF
777Please respect copyright.PENANABDZ4VCzpBc
"Jeremy?"777Please respect copyright.PENANAvVpjfaoCvL
777Please respect copyright.PENANAs8YtpJswlB
I shake my head, not believing.777Please respect copyright.PENANA9wrz1bXj7x
777Please respect copyright.PENANAoWsPv0TJr3
"Jere, talk to me, Jere?"777Please respect copyright.PENANA50WucDZ38f
777Please respect copyright.PENANAGYqSR3PMU8
Soon the ambulance pulls up in front of me in mass heaps.777Please respect copyright.PENANA1j5iaMvk3l
777Please respect copyright.PENANAokB0ByqsYz
The siren noises was deafening, but I was too numb all over to hear, or feel what was going on around me.777Please respect copyright.PENANARQRKIepvRI
777Please respect copyright.PENANAUwRuhw1jjF
I have no chance to react before Jeremy's limp body is taken away from me. 777Please respect copyright.PENANA11MV0j1dfA
