He felt as if he could never move again, as if it was just easier to fall and die now, to escape this torment and escape to this hidden bliss. "Mr. Montag, look!

His vision started to blur, and he felt as if any second now his head would split in two, and snap! That would be the end of Montag."Easy there, here, take my hand." He reached out blindly and felt a petite hand, soft and slender, and pulled himself up eagerly, ready to see his savior, to see if it was who he thought, to see Clarisse McClellan once more.
