London's Calling : Ed Sheeran Fanfiction [Wattys 2015]

Chapter 24: Nose Bleed

Ed's POV :

Her nose bled terribly and all of the sudden. I was the only one in the room at the time and I didn't even know what to do. I shot out of my seat and grabbed the paper towels. I must have pressed the call button 40 times before they arrived.

They burst through the door in a rush.

"How long ago did this start?" the male nurse asked.

"Only about a minute ago. What is happening?"

"I don't know Mr.Sheeran. This is not good." he shot me a glance of worry. "We could be losing her. Sudden trauma is never a good sign."

The nurse ran to get the doctor.

"Hold that towel there. I'll be back as soon as possible with a doctor! Hang tight and stay calm."

I felt myself losing it again. I held the towels under her nose and stared at her disregarding my dripping face.

"Hey love. I uh wanted you to know something." This could be the end and they were going to take her away from me again. "You were perfect. You are, and always will be perfect to me." I rested my forehead against hers as she liked. I couldn't stop the tears now. I felt them roll down my face heavily and my breath made me stammer uncontrollably. "I was gonna ask you to be my wife one day. Have my kids, yeah? Maybe live if Suffolk like I did." I was barely audible. "But it's ok you see. I know you loved me, and I think you started to love yourself. I would tell our kids about you. Like you were the sun and the moon and all the stars. You are. You are everything, and I just needed you to know that."

I kissed her lips and forehead. I kissed my favorite scar on her chest under her collar bone that she hated. "I'm sorry I fell asleep without telling you that I loved you. Or what you mean to me. They're gonna come back soon Leylah, but I want you to do something for me ok?" I took a very deep breath.

"Let go if you have to. Put yourself first for once love. You deserve it. I love you. So, so much." I reached for her hand and waited for the doctor.

He swept in and briskly checked her monitor.

"She needs to be taken for examination and to stop her bleeding. It might not end well sir. "

I kissed her nose one last time and squeezed her hand and he rolled her out.

I sat down in my chair and calmed my breathing. Nothing could have ever prepared me for this. This was unbearable.
