Till death do us part?

"I love you, My Rodnoy.."
Her voice softly spoke to me, Her Hazel golden eyes shine while she looked up at me with her sweet smile. Her arms wrapped around my neck while My arms were secured around her waist, never wanting to ever let her go. Not again.
"I Love you too..."

I smiled at her, holding her tighter on me. Her body laying on top of mines since she always snuggled herself on me in bed because of my exclusive body warmth, Accorded to her. I looked into her face as I had moved up my right hand to move this hair from her face to look at her beauty
"I never want this to end"
My hand settled on her cheek carefully as if I could easily break her like regular glass with just my hand. My other hand still secured on her waist, still daring to not let her go for a second.

{Rodnoy - 'Soulmate' in Russian}

Her smile soon faded from her face to a hurt look, She placed her hand on my cheek with her soft touch, Her eyes now looking glum as I looked deep into her eyes while she did the same
"This does have to end.."
Her voice was low and soft yet almost tearful, I placed my hand back on her waist, I could feel my heart starting to beat out of my chest heavily from hearing her words.

"I, I don't want this to end, Elysia"
My breaths were shaky like I couldn't breathe normally like just a few moments ago, She just sighed softly. Moving her upper body up from me and placed both of her hands on my beating chest, almost painful with each beat, her hands seemingly moving with the movements of how fast my chest rose up and down. The beating of my heart in my ears, almost ringing in some way.

"Lucian..you Have to accept it-"--"Elysia, Cariño, I Don't want to, I, I just can't...Stay with me just a little longer"
Tears surrounded my vision but not yet fell from my eyes, Her hands on my chest felt as if they weren't they even there but I could still somewhat see they were were just like how my hands were on my her waist.

{Cariño - 'Honey' in Spanish}

"Lucian, I'm not even here, I'm no longer alive anymore..."
Her voice was faded and full of hurt, each word seemed like she was speaking further then she was.
I shut my eyes closed, Gripped my hands tight only to feel I was gripping in my own hands now, no longer her. I then opened my watery tearful eyes as soft, small hiccups were coming from my throat. My vision was watery and basically blurry from my eyes, I brought my gripped hands to my face, un-gripping them once they covered my eyes as I bawled my heart out.

Letting my eyes get swollen and my face warm up, getting this numb feeling on my face for some reason, the palms of My hands desperately trying to wipe these tears from coming even knowing it'll be useless since they'll just keep coming. The sounds of my wails of grief-stricken being the only sound in this now forsaken bedroom.
"Elysia, My love..why did you have to go"
Each hiccup of a sob in each word I spoke out loud as if wanting a response that'll never come, But I desperately wished one would, To be able to hear her voice without it being my own mind doing its tricks of her being here when she's dead.

I could start to feel my head lighten and drowsy as my nose was stuffy with my eyes swollen alongside my face completely numbed. My cries lowering it's sound to hiccups and sniffles, I laid my arm on the bed with my other arm covering both my heated, swollen eyes.

"Death, Death did us part..."
The only last remaining strength of my consciousness I used to speak before I soon passed out of consciousness.
