"There's no way." You cried, wiping your eyes as you bolted into the hospital with Soda, "there's no f****** way."
"Yeah," Soda huffed to the front desk, "where's Johnny Cade's room?"
The reception lady smiled, "third door to the lef-"
"Thanks!" You and Soda said in unison, dashing down the hall and bursting through the door to Johnny's room.
Nothing could've prepared you for what you saw. There lied Johnny, severe burn marks all over his body, an oxygen tube the only thing keeping him alive. He was alive, but only barely.
You covered your mouth with your hands and ran up to Johnny, your vision blurring with tears.
You fiddled with his hair, brushing it out of his face. You kissed his forehead as a tear slipped down your cheek.
Soda looked at you sadly, "do you want some time alone with him?"
You couldn't say anything, so you nodded and Soda left the room.
"Johnny?" You whispered, your voice trembling.
Johnny opened his eyes slowly and croaked, "Y/N."
"Hey Johnny." You said, more tears slipping down your face.
"I'm sorry, Y/N."
"No it's alright," you assured him, "you're going to be ok. You have to be."
"If I die," Johnny began.
You shook your head, "No, no you're going to be ok, Johnny."
"But you'll never be alone. I'll be with you from dusk till Dawn. I'll be with you from dusk till Dawn."
You realized, although his voice was barely audible, he was attempting to sing "Dusk till Dawn." It was you and Johnny's song.
You went along with it, "baby, I'm right here."
"I'll hold you when things go wrong" Johnny continued.
That's when you lost it and started crying hard, "I'll-I'll b-be w-with you fr-from dusk till d-Dawn."
"Y/N?" Johnny asked hoarsely.
"Yes, Johnnycake?"
He lifted his hand slowly to your face, wiping the tears from your face, "don't cry."
You clutched his hand, feeling his warmth on your hand.
"You'll never be alone." Johnny said, "I'll be with you. I'll be with you from dusk till Dawn."

Then he died.

"Johnny?" You cried, shaking him, "Johnny, wake up!"
Even as you said that, you knew he was gone. His hand had gone limp and he lay there in his bed, defeated.
You screamed and sank to the floor, your whole body trembling as you cried and cried. Soda came into the room after he heard you scream.
"What happened?" He asked, pulling you into his chest.
"J-Johnny's dead." You said, gasping for air, "he's gone."
"Shh," Soda cooed, stroking your head as you cried harder, "Soda's here. Soda's here."

A/N:
Discovered the song "Dusk till Dawn" the other day and I'm obsessed, so I was like, why not incorporate it into an imagine? I'll be honest, I almost cried multiple times as I was writing this because this is sad! And I'm sorry about that, but I really like the sad, emotional, imagines.
Anyway, thank y'all so much for the views, votes and comments! Y'all are awesome and I love you guys so much!

Have a lovely day and remember to stay gold!
