Hold Me, Like You Held On To Life
Inspired by the song "Vampire Heart" by HIM. This story follows Jackie's heartbreak and her suffering of PTSD following the events in Dallas, Texas 11-22-63 and she comes to discover that there truly IS life after death... Most of the dialogue and actions in the first few chapters DID happen and some true facts and dialogue appear later. But this IS fan-fiction so much is also just my imagination, especially near the end. My background knowledge of the Kennedys and the facts I use in this story come from many of the Kennedy books, articles, etc, I have read and Interviews I have watched and listened to. If you're curious to know what is true and what is fiction don't be shy to ask. NOTE: Rating change during Chapter 6. Enjoy.
