You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

"No, no no no...please no...", her voice is panicked, saying the same thing over and over again. "Please....Please don't". She's begging, something she usually wouldn't do.

You make me happy when skies are gray

He'd tease her, remind her of that time she said that she'd never beg. Not for him, not for anyone.

You'll never know dear, how much I love you

"It's okay, you'll be fine. Help will come, I promise, we'll fix you, don't worry"

She's more lying to herself than him. They both know that there's no help for the lost.

Please don't take my sunshine away

Someone's tugging at her arm, saying something but everything is just a blur.

I'll always love you and make you happy

"Remember when we broke into that house?"

Of course she does. How could she forget? She'd give anything to go back to that time.

If you will only say the same

It was the first and only time he told her he loved her. She always knew though.

But if you leave me and love another

It didn't matter that he hurt her before, so many times. It all didn't matter now.

You'll regret it all some day

He always came back to her and she always let him. It was just a thing they did. She used to be hurt, yell and scream but all of it seems so ridiculous considering the circumstances. It almost makes her laugh.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

"We danced to that song...It was so sappy", he continues but his voice is starting to slur, his gaze getting unfocused.

You make me happy when skies are gray

"Oh please, you loved it", she teases. She's trying her hardest not to sob but her voice is shaking. She keeps talking to him, telling him about that day as if he was a stranger that hasn't been there.

You'll never know dear, how much I love you

The voices around her are getting louder. Someone screams at her to let go and get up but there's no way she's leaving him now. She talking faster, desperate to finish the story before he finishes his last breathe. She's not aware that her words aren't making any sense now. His blood soaks her clothes but she doesn't care. She would die anyways, right next to him. Even though she doesn't take her eyes of the man lying on the cold ground she hears her people run away. It was only a matter of time now until they come and make her world go black. She lies down next to the body she used to cuddle up to for warmth. Now she was the only warm one. She closed her eyes, whispering his name one last time before she let the darkness embrace her.
