Danger (TW)

TRIGGER WARNING: death

AU in which a person can sense when their soulmate is in danger.

My husband of two years is just upstairs. So why hasn't he come running? Blood is gushing from my side. I can't breathe. The knife I fell on is on the floor since I pulled it out of my stomach. Blood is pouring from my mouth and nose, and I'm choking on it.

Why can't he sense the danger I'm in?

I know I'm going to die when I lose feeling from in my hands and in my legs from the waist down. I'm in so much pain and I'm losing blood so quickly I can't even scream. A single tear trickles from my eye as the edges of my vision go dark.

And still he never comes.

Now I haven't the strength to keep my eyes open. All my other senses work just fine, though. I can taste the metallic soup in my mouth--no, wait, that's blood. I can smell the red liquid in my nostrils. I can hear my husband bustling about upstairs, even through the ringing in my ears. And I can feel the sting of the wound causing blood to seep into my clothes.

And still, he never comes.

A feeling of crushing hopelessness overcomes me as I lose consciousness. I guess we're not soulmates after all.
