callum and i stood hip to hip, overlooking the big city, our hands intertwined. the ring felt heavy on my finger, but it was the best kind of heavy you could ever have.

our shallow breaths were the only sounds in the room, honking cars and ringing sirens down below worked as background sound.

"shall we head back?" callum breaks the comfortable silence, causing me to look up at him.

i exhaled softly, feeling like i was disturbing an angels line of vision.

"i love you." i return back, and he smiles, quickly pressing his lips to mine.

"i love you so much." he whispers between short kisses.

we break away quickly, starting towards the stairwell without another glance towards the city. we make our way hastefully down the stairs, my heart beating in rhythm with his as our feet pounded on the metal stairwell.

we reach the bottom, breaking out of the building to the windy street.

"hold on." callum exasperates, causing my feet to become cemented to the ground.

i feel his hand leave mine, leaving it feeling empty and cold. i turn to look at my fiance, seeing him holding his chest, his face going red.

"callum?" i murmur, walking closer to him.

he quickly raises his hand, waving me off.

"i-it's fine, just.. just the.. the stairs." he motions backwards, before coughing harshly, his whole chest bellowing.

"sit down, callum, now." i rush closer, helping him sit as he continues to cough his lungs out.

"callum, what's happening?" my voice stammers quietly, his face turning into deeper and deeper shades of red.

"c-call 911." he wheezes.

"sh-shit." i choke, fumbling with the phone in my pocket, before dialing 911.

"911 what's your emergency?" the emergency responder rings, and i feel a sob catch in my throat.

"m-my fiance c-can't bre-eathe, he is r-red and-"

"lay him down sir, please remain calm. what is your location?" she asks calmly.

i hold the phone with my shoulder up against my shoulder as i lay the wheezing boy down, tears crowding my eyes as i respond, "right outside the cn t-tower. p-please come qu-quick, please please please."

"we are on our way sir, please, stay calm. we will be there in a few minutes." the woman informs, before the line goes dead.

"h-harry-"

"don't talk, pl-lease, just try to breathe." i cut him off, looking over him as tears fall on to his lips.

"i-i'm sorry, s-so so sorry for n-not being strong enough." he coughs, and i shake my head.

"y-you are, you have been and y-you always will be, c-cal. i l-love you, you a-are so strong." i press my lips to his, only for a cough to push me away.

sirens wail in the cold night, my heart beating out of my chest. i look down to the wheezing boy, feeling helpless.

"i love you callum." i cry, picking his body up into my arms, holding him tight. he grips the soft fabric adorning my chest, clutching it between his fists as his bloodshot eyes stare directly into mine.

his eyes slowly glaze over, his breathing become very irregular, almost slowing down to nothing.

and all i do is sit, and watch, as the love of my life slowly falls out of life, right before my eyes.
