The blondes eyes darted around the faces watching her in silence. Listening to every word.
Her eyes caught Pipers, James' younger sister, as she recounted the details which led to this very moment.

"James, please. Please stop this. It's over" the small girl begged as blood begin to pool in the joins of her balcony, her voice catching as tears dripped down her cheeks.
"No. Riles no. I'm nothing without you. You're everything I ever had. I love you" he croaked, still huddled with his head down.
"You never loved me James. Just leave me alone. That's all I want from you." Riley began to walk back toward her room, sniffing as she held back her heavy sobs
"I want you to be happy Riley, it's all I ever wanted." The pairs eyes locked for the last time as James looked up at Riley, who could almost see the man she truly loved inside James pained eyes.

The male slowly got to his feet, stumbling slightly in his intoxicated state, taking one step towards the petite girl who was suddenly frozen.
He gently caressed her cheek and stepped back again
"I'm sorry, Riley. I love you" he whispered softly, without slurring, before Riley turned her back onto him, letting silent tears fall once he couldn't see.
She stood still, her back still to him as she heard glass crunching under James heavy feet, the odd stumble here or there then the rustling of branches.

Riley shook her head, she had fallen for his lies again. She never wanted to be under his spell again.
Her hand grasped the door handle ready to shut the balcony door.
Instead she froze as she heard a sickening thud.

Time seemed to stop for a few seconds, but to Riley it felt like a decade, before she could snap round and run to where James was seconds before.
A blood curdling scream filled the previously silent air as her eyes settled on his form, laying still on the ground
"JAMES!" She screamed once again, running as fast as possible through the house and outside to his body, ignoring her sisters calls to her as she went.

"I remember Riley screaming the house down like she'd just been stabbed. I had no idea what was going on until I saw him laying there" The blondes sister spoke, holding Riley's hand in hers

"James, James please. Please don't leave me like this" Riley pleaded as she took his hand in hers, he was still warm but so still
"I love you Riley" he murmured, almost inaudibly before falling silent once more
"Jae, I love you too, James please. JAMES!" She sobbed, grasping his hand as it remained in hers

"Riley?" Emily shouted through the kitchen before she saw his body laying there
"Riley don't move him. I'll get help" the older of the girls instructed before dialling 911 into her phone
"Helps coming James, hold on baby, please hold on, for me" she younger girl choked out, before resting her forehead against his, refusing to let go of his hand
"Ri, go change before they get here, go with him" Emily asked, placing a hand on her sisters shoulder
"Em I can't leave him here, I can't, I can't leave him" she stuttered, tears falling rapidly as Emily sighed dashing into the house quickly
"Wear these" she announced, passing Riley a pair of sweats, sneakers and one of James hoodies from the laundry, as Riley was simply in her pjs and slippers

The small girl quickly threw on the items before laying next to James on the grass, taking his hand back in hers and placing a kiss on his cheek as she heard sirens.
"They're nearly here babe, you're gonna be okay" she whispered to James, attempting to comfort him and herself as the sirens grew closer
Emily dashed out to the paramedics as Riley continued to whisper to James

"No matter what, I wasn't leaving him, I wasn't leaving him there alone. I think that's when I realised that I would always love him"

"Okay sweetheart, can you step back a second and let us help your boyfriend?" A woman, probably in her early 40s asked, helping Riley up as she nodded silently, but staying close to James as they prepared him with a brace and oxygen
"Can...can I... can I come?" She whimpered as they wheeled his body through to the ambulance.
The lady nodded as the doors shut and began asking Riley questions
They covered the usual name, age, allergies etc before Riley broke down in tears
"Has he taken anything we should know of?" The paramedic asked kindly
"I, I don't know. He has some powder in his shirt and he seemed to have been drinking and smoking, he seemed drunk. That's why he fell I think" she croaked out, keeping her eyes on James throughout
"I'm just going to take some stats before we arrive at the hospital, I'm going to have to undo his shirt to perform a quick heart check okay?" The kind lady explained as once again Riley simply nodded
However when his shirt was undone she noticed something
"That tattoo? That's new. I've not seen it before" she whispered, seeing the small tattoo over his left pectoral, their anniversary to be exact
"I'm no expert but it looks to be about a week old maximum" the paramedic smiled, setting up the tests
