Angel: "Are you okay?!!"
Bill looks up at her, trying to brush it off
Bill: "I'm fine..."
Angel shakes her head
Angel: "No you're not, why are you lying?"
She touches the blood on his arm
Bill has no excuse now...
He was unwell
Bill: "I don't know what's wrong.. But we'll figure it out once we get home"
Angel looks at him worried, still holding his arm
Angel: "You know I love you more than anything?.."
Her eyes well up with tears, holding his face
Bill's face tenses up..
Bill: "Angel I love you too, but I'm fine.. stop worrying"
He squeezes her hand and then tells her to sit in the passenger seat

The ride was eerie... The moon was dull, the trees were looming over, and the car lights flickered..
The night was tantalizing
Bill grips the car wheel harder as he feels his pain get worse
"Don't let Angel see..." he thinks
Angel: "How did you like the date?"
She looks over at him nervously, trying to make conversation to ease the moment
Bill: "I like being anywhere with you so I loved it.. Also the food was good, as well as the music.."
Angel: "Same, my food was so good.. Better than edamame beans.. You probably ate all they had, the waiter had to give you 10 more plates"
Bill looks over to her, laughing, ignoring his throat's pain
Bill: "Not 10.. Only 5..."

He looks to the side to catch a glimpse of her beautiful smileHe loved it

He looks to the side to catch a glimpse of her beautiful smile
He loved it.. Her angelic face, a face that he wrote poems for
Bill: "I can't wait to read you my poem.."
Angel: "I'm excited to hear it.."
They look at each other for a moment until Bill has to keep his eyes on the road again...
Bill's pain that he kept ignoring was returning...
His hands slowly slip off the wheel...
"Ugh..."
His vision gets more blurry..
His heartbeat quicker...
And that throbbing pain that he ever so hated was creeping back in...
"Please.. At least bring us home.."
Bill's hands shake more after he makes the wish..
"No.. no no no no"

He coughs...
He feels so faint-
Bill: "I think I'm going to..."
He starts to lose consciousness, his eyes lowering and his head falling down
Bill's hands fall off the wheel, making them swerve to the side of the road, hitting a big tree
