Before My Heart Stops

My hospital room is a blinding, bright white space. The heart monitor beeps from my bedside on the right. The beeps come slower and slower. Mason holds my small cold hand, which holds the tiny paper heart he gave me just seconds ago, in his big warm ones. He puts his head down and I realize he is speaking. Whispering.

"I love you. I love you so much. Don't let that beautiful heart of yours stop. Please," he whispers with a strong voice but then it breaks when he says the word 'please'. I raise my other hand, the one he isn't holding, and I place it on his tear stained cheek. He looks up at me straight in the eyes with his sea colored ones. I smile weakly. Mason has come such a long way from who he was before. So much better now. I remember the day we first met and all the ones with him in it after...

Phoebe Angelic is the smartest girl in her school and is a good girl. One day she is told by the principal of the school to change a fellow student named Mason from his bad ways. To, quote-on-quote "transform him from bad boy ways to a goody goody like yourself." She says she will do it but only because the principal told her. Although, little did she know, this challenge would change her life.
