(Jcs POV)

Sunday morning I walked back into the hospital. I signed in, and the nurse led me to her room.

She was still out cold. The only sound was the beeps of the heart monitor and my own heart. I let out a breath and grabbed her hand as I sat down.

The nurse left. I let a tear fall.

"Alissa, I know I'm a little late, as you're already in a fucking coma." I let out a sob. "But I found that reason."

*flashback*

I first saw her with short sleeves last summer, scars up and down her arms.

I sat down at her table in that tiny Starbucks around the Corner from our house.

"Yes?" She asked, not looking away from the window she stared out of.

I grabbed her wrist. She gasped and turned her head and stared at me like a deer caught in headlights. "Why would you do that?"

She ignored me at first.

"Sweetheart..."

"My name is Alissa." She let out a breath. "My life's fucked up, okay? All I want is to die."

"Don't ever leave. Please. I'll be here Alissa. I promise."

"Well here's my promise. I'm gunna leave. I will. I promised myself a long time ago I'd kill myself someday."

"Alissa, I'm begging you. Please don't commit."

"Give me a reason not to." She looked away, back to the window.

"I will. That's my new promise."

*end of flashback*

"That reason is my love for you."

With that, I leaned down, and kissed her. A long, sweet , loving kiss.

"Alissa, Your reason to stay is me. I need you. I'll die without you. You're my entire world. You mean so freaking much to me. It's un-fucking-believable." My head fell into her chest. "Damnit Alissa, I love you." I sobbed.

"Please stay. I'll die without you."
