I stared down at my soulmate, as he lay there, almost dead. After all we'd been throigh was that how i'd lose him? No. No, surely not. The paramedics were smaming down on his chest trying thier hardest to get him to breathe.

I said nothing to anybody, as Luiz pulled on my shoulder's to get me up i did not move. As Kelly sobbed my name whilst Charlie lay in her arms, looking almost as pale as Kole, i said nothing.

As Angela screamed in pain only a few metres back, i felt nothing. I cared for nothing if not him. I didn't care about any of these people, i cared about Kole.

Not my ex-manager and boss Kelly, Not Charlie, the man who i'd cheated on Kole with, Not Angela, the man i loved's mother and not Luiz, the man who had made hime this way. The only person in the world i cared about lay dying before me.

As the paramedic's back up arrived, i finally moved but only into the Ambulance to go with them. Their back up paramedic's had brought extra equipment. Angela and I both climbed into the Ambulance, leaving Luiz to drive behind us.

As we left, Charlie and Kelly continued sobbing on the ground, they hadn't even came up the hill. Charlie didn't look like he was breathing and Kelly was being stronger than ever, still... i didn't care for their pain. Cuddled together at the back of the ambulance, Angela and I watched as the paramedics used tons and tons of strange tools on her son.

I finally realised, that this wasn't the life i wanted to live with Kole. This clearly wasnt the life he wanted to live either. I decided that if Kole were to survive this we were going to leave, leave the 'gang', leave the city, leave everything.

We would go to a nice beach, be friends with silly villagers and do nothing but love each other. He deserved more than this and so did i. That was my soulmate damn it!

Hours later, Me, Angela and Luiz were sitting in the waiting room. Kole had been taken to theatre. We'd been sat there together for five hours now with absolutely no contact from any of the doctors that knew about Kole. Angela and i were both feeling numb.

Neither of us wanted to speak or look at anything, we simply stared at the table before us the whole time. Luiz, on the other hand, wouldn't shut up. He kept charging around the hospital floor demanding that someone tell him about his son, because he was a Delmarno.

Any other time, watching Luiz's anger at his name not making a difference would have been entertaining but my boyfriend was dying. I couldn't care less about his 'priviledge' at that time.

A nurse came around the corner, "Miss Delmarno." she hummed. "Yes!" jumped Angela, running towards her. Luiz and I quickly followed. "I have news, Kole is stable and alive." she chimed. That word soothed me. Alive. I'd finally be able to tell him how much i love him. "When can i speak to him." i blurted.

"Molly!" scourned Angela. "Oh wait yeah he probably won't be able to talk right now will he?" i sighed. "I'll let him sleep." I rambled. "Erm... no miss he's actually not awake." she stammered. "What do you mean?" Angela snapped. Now, my heart was pumping again.

"Well if you'll excuse me." i grinned, puzzled they all looked at me but i bolted. I was searching every room on the floor, the nurse and both Kole's parents running after me. At last, i found his room, he was fast asleep. "Babe!" i yelled flying at him to hug him. Thats when i noticed all the strange equipment around him... why would he have all that if he was just sleeping?

"Miss, please be careful, your boyfriend is in a coma!" the nurse called. A coma? So he wasn't just sleeping, Who knows if i'd even be able to talk to him again?

"I'll explain." the nurse cooed as she shut the door, closing in Me, Angela and Luiz with her. I zoned out to the words of the nurse, it was all talks about brain damage and water and i couldn't even hear the rest. But that day taught me something, actually the past few months had.

Love can defeat drugs, but only if you admit your love befor drugs can destroy it. I let drugs defeat me, i didn't let Kole know how much i loved him before he sunk completely. I didn't hold him how i was supposed to or love him like i was supposed to. I just acted blindly, using his money to my own advantage, with all the fancy cars and vacations we dould take, i didn't do any of it for him. Everything had been for me.

Because he showed me his love. I realised that this whole thing was a race between my love and his, and drugs and our passion. My love never began that race, Kole's ran past the finish line. His drug abuse had outsmarted our passion and convinced him that he was no longer capable of love. but everything he had ever done was for that one reason. Love.

I would stay by his side until his final moments, whether he came back to me or stayed in that coma. It was OUR love that would get him out of this, and for once our passion was going to win.
