A Thousand Years

5

                                                                              …..

                I clutch my chest, struggling to breathe. Searing pain shoots through me, as I grasp the reality of what’s happened to me. My own blood runs down my arms, down my chest into my shirt. Jack’s eyes widen in horror as he kneels down beside me, holding me in his cold embrace. The man is gone.

                Jack stares at my blood, pouring from my body. Tears fall from his face, as he screams.

                ‘I won’t let you die…’

                ‘Why not…’ my voice quivers, and grows hoarse into a whisper, ‘why-why wouldn’t you…’ I smile, weakly.

                His eyes soften, and he touches his forehead to mine, ‘…because I love you…’

                I finally say what I’ve wanted him to know, since I realized it nights ago, ‘…I love you…’

                My breath starts to grow faster, as I know each may be my last. He shakes his head, closing his eyes and clenching his fists.

                My vision grows blurry, but I hear his voice, still…

                ‘Lea…’

                I close my eyes.

                ‘No…’ His voice breaks, ‘Lea…Lea…God, no…I was trying to protect you…’

                I listen to his voice, until my world fades away.
