Her departure

Adrian's POV

Today Is the day I will ask her to Marry me. I am nervous as hell, my palms are all sweaty and I have to control my breathing. I finally arrive to her house and notice that her parents aren't home. I park the car and walk to the house trying to look casual. I nock expecting the door to be close and locked since she is alone, but instead the door opens itself. I walk inside the house looking everywhere, but she is nowhere to be found. I start getting more nervous.

What if something happened? she told me she was ready about 10 minutes ago.

I start calling her name multiple times, but again, no one answers.

I go upstairs hoping that she is in her room and maybe she didn't heard my screams. I was going to nock, but then I saw her from the cleavage the door had. She is laying on the floor. I could see blood on her white dress.

I kick the door open and walk to her.

There is blood everywhere. In her dress, her hands, her beautiful face, all over the carpet and even in her bed.

No this can't be happening!

I take her pulse... she is alive.

"Natalie? Talk to me please!"

No answer.

"Sweetie please don't leave me. stay strong please." I whisper.

No answer.

I search for my phone, but I can't find it. Stupid tears don't let me see.

When I finally found my phone I call 9-1-1 for an ambulance.

I look at her. She looks so... lifeless. Her pale skin is more pale than usual, her eyes are closed and her body is all covered in blood.

"Natalie they are coming. Please, just stay with me. I love you! You can't leave me, not like this." I say to her, holding her in my arms.

Her eyes slowly open.

In a very slow whisper she says

"I love you. I didn't..."She lets a sigh and then her eyes close.

I felt her breathing slow down.

"No! Natalie please! Don't go! Please!" I scream and sob. I can't let her go.

I Hear some sirens outside and someone entering the house. I get up with Natalie around my arms and walk downstairs. A man with a stretcher tells me to put her down. As they pick her up the police arrives. I can't get inside the ambulance with her. I don't know if she is alive.

I am still processing everything. I can't believe this is happening. But I have to stay strong for her and She has to stay strong, for us.

Finally I arrived to the hospital. I see paramedics run with her, and I follow as fast as I can.

"Sir. I am sorry, but you have to wait in the waiting room." said one of the paramedics.

"Please, I want to be with her. " I say with a cracked voice and tears in my eyes.

"I am sorry. But We can't let you come inside." Said again the paramedic.

I just nod.

Then I see the paramedics running with her to a room that is not so far from where I am standing, so I decide to run after her.

"Sir. please wait out side!" A tall woman says, and I ignore her.

They stop moving Natalie and I se her breathing with her eyes close.
