CHAPTER 1 - Broken Bones, Broken Hearts

I stare frozen as Warner looks at me. He saved me, and I'm extremly grateful, but right now I'm more terrified and regretful than anything. I nearly roll off the bed, and scurry into the corner of the room. I hug my knees and rock back and forth, back and forth.

He is watching me from the bed, a confused look on his face.

"I'm sorry," I nearly scream, "I'm sorry," I'm sorry for leaving the battle and not being able to find Winston and Brendon, I'm sorry that Adam and Kenji might be dead right now because I was too busy being careless getting caught to help them, I'm sorry that right now the only reason I'm alive is Warner.

I sob into my hands. My voice is faded into a whisper now but I still am saying I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I barely noticed that Warner was there infront of me, on his knees.

"Juliette?" He says, worried. "Are you ok love?" He says. I shake my head no. No I am not ok, not with the thought of all my friends dead and knowing that I was responsible. He wraps his arms around me in an embrace. I take advantage of the opportunity to cry into a shoulder. His hands travel up and down my spine, and it sends shivers through my body.

Right then a pain in my chest brings me back to realty, that I was healing from a bullet wound in my chest that should of been fatal.

I lean back up against the wall breathing heavly, the way you do when you your trying to stop crying.

"Love?" He says "What's wrong?"

"Th-th-the battle," I shuddered.

"Ended," he says. He read my_ I'm pretty sure it was obvious on my face_ expression. "Kent and Kishimoto are still alive." He says. I nod slowly. Another pain in my chest, I went back to leaning on the wall again.

"Pain?" He asked conserned.

"Yes." I say. There was sweat on my forehead, and it was dripping down my face.

"Here, take this." He says, handing me a glass cup from a night stand. The cup was filled with this ale-colored liquid. I drank the liquid and I almost instantly felt relief of the pain.

"What is that stuff?" I ask him.

"It helps heal broken bones. The bullet broke a few ribs." He says calmly, though he hesitates at the word bullet.

"
Couldn't Sonya and Sara just fixed my ribs?" I say. He shook his head no.

"To do that they would of needed to actually touch your skin, and they would of been needed to have contact with the area of the broken bone. And they can't touch you, and they also wouldn't let me be in the same room as you if you didn't have on a shirt." He said chuckling. I nodded.

"Thank you Warner." I whispered. He smiled, dimples.

"I would do anything for you, love, anything." His hand cupped my checked and I nuzzled into it, remembering how much I loved him a few nights ago. I'm sorry, realizing I still loved him now.

"Do you still want to be my friend?" I ask him, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Your best friend in the world." He says. And with that I press my lips against his. His hands travel down my sides until they rest upon my waist, he gently pulls me closer to him, until I'm sitting in his lap. He groans when my hands reach up and play with his hair, a big messy tangle of gold silk.

"I love you Juliette," He whispers against my lips.

"I love you too Aaron." I say. There I said it I was in love with him, and I really was. Hearing his first name made him shudder, and he pulls me even closer to him_ as if that was even possible_ and he deepens the kiss.

He runs his hands down my legs_ I only just realized that I wasn't wearing any pants, just a t-shirt that must of be his_ But even then I don't want him to stop never. I never want him to stop. Until now. Another pain went through my chest and I nearly choked from the surprise of the unexpected pain.

"Pain again?" He asks.

"Yes," I manage to say gasping.

Just then he lifts me up into his arms as if I'm as light as a feather, and lays me down onto the bed. And can you believe this he tucks me in. He lays down next to me on the bed facing me, we weren't touching.

His emerald eyes were the last thing I saw before I fell asleep.
