Shailene's POV
...........................................................................
I attempt to catch my breath as I race up the stairway to the roof. Every single second I waste to take a step is a second in which Ansel could have been saved. I push myself as hard as I can not to collapse now and fall down the stairs, and finally as I start to see a black vignette, I find a grey rusty door... with a missing handle. "Damn it Ansel.", I whisper to my disbelief. I push the door, and nothing happens. I start to frantically pound the door and yell in hopes that he could hear me, but nothing ever happens. I finally use all my strength that I have left and begin to kick the door. It took me 10 good rough kicks for me to sprain my ankle, and collapse against the door. I begin to cry, cry for my love that I'll never see again because I couldn't save him. I couldn't  save him because I'm weak. I didn't try hard enough. I AM WEAK... I AM WEAK ... I AM...NO...I AM STRONG...I WILL... I WILL SAVE MY ANSEL... I DONT CARE IF I BREAK ANY BONES... I NEED TO SAVE HIM. " I'm coming Ansel." I heave out. I jump up with a new found energy coursing through my hot body. I can feel the adrenaline passing through my veins, as my heart beats fast. I am ready. I quickly kick down the door and run as fast as I can only to find Ansel right at the edge, and begin to step off. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!", I yell as I pace towards him. I quickly reach him in little time, and tackle him down to the roof's rough ground. I lay above Ansel as he slowly opens his eyes and gasps for air as he tightly holds me close to his cold body. "Oh my god... Oh my god... I thought I had lost you...", he said crying on to my shoulder. "The only thing that matters is that your okay.", I say stroking the back of his neck. "Just promise me you'll never EVERY do something like this ever again ... okay ?", I said pulling away from his hold, and quickly put my hands on his soft firm face. He quickly nods, and pulls me into a strong and warm kiss. After a minute or so, we break apart creating a small centimeter between our lips that feels as though we are miles apart leaving me wanting more of him. I lean back in until his index finger quick touches my lips. " Shailene ?", Ansel says with an unsure face. "Yes?", I say softly. "I kinda love you...", He says moving his stare from the floor beneath us up to my grinning face as I reply with " Yeah.. I know... and I kinda love you too." We smile into each others eyes with a stare not even Hazel and Augustus could ever dream of having, and kiss once more, with more passion than before, and lay on the rough gravel as we look up to the night sky above us.
