Please Don't Let Me Go

Chapter 39 | If You Really Cared...

I then noticed how dark the sky had become, a strong wind came whipping through suddenly. Brush and leaves flew around us.

"Well?" He asked, his Adan's apple bobbing up and down, eyes pleading.

I opened my mouth and then closed it trying to process. Should I?  He didn't deserve it, that's for sure.

Thunder cracked, the clouds now back. I couldn't see the sky as rain came pouring down and the wind increased.

I was so shocked by the weather events around us. I had to squint my eyes, trying to see the person so close to me.

I barely could make out his face outline for a moment. I wanted to say something but I couldn't.

One second he's with me the next he's ripped away, holding onto the column of the small roof above my front door for dear life.

"Annalise- help me." He said holding out his hand, the other clutching the post. I was pinned to the door from how hard the wind was blowing. I clutched my doorknob and  tried to reach his hand, but I couldn't stretch very far.

I heard a horn blow, the big truck on the road losing control. It was swerving back and forth forcing off a Honda car off the road,
It was rolling over onto our lawn.

I then saw little girl and boy were playing there, with a wet sand box. Why they were still out here in this weather didn't make sense, but before I could yell for them to get out of the way I watched the horrific scene of the Honda flipping on top of them.

Blood and sand splattered into the air being carried off in the wind.The truck then rammed into the Honda, coming to a halt.

"Annalise! Help me!" My head snapped to him. I tried to reach again.

"I- can't" I struggled to say, my words far raged out, the sound of them being muffled by the sound of the loud wind, rain and thunder.

"You have to." His hand was slipping from the wet wood.

I shook my head,"Annalise please- I'm begging" "Just try one more time."

"I can't!"

"You'd do it if you really cared." He said, all the sudden his hand slipped the wind blowing him across the lawn.

All the sudden a twister came down from the sky and a block away. As it got closer it started to blow houses apart, furniture, pictures, and splintered wood blowing all around. He was still on the ground, holding onto a bush with a hand.

He looked up at me as I watched in horror as the truck flipped over twice from the tornado's winds, and it crushed all of his body up to his upper chest. I saw him struggle to breathe, his eyes staring at me before they just froze.

With the rain whipping around it took me a moment to realize I was crying my eyes out, my throat dry and hurting like I had been screaming at the top of my lungs for the past five minutes.

The tornado slowly moved down the street away from us, the wind decreasing slightly.

I crawl slowly fighting the air pressure making my way to him. I shook him,"Come on. Please, wake up, come on." He isn't and he can't.

I tried again.

Still no response.

"Come on!" I yelled at him,"You're- you're just knocked unconscious for a second, wake up!" But all my crying and yelling had little affect.

His blue eyes just stared up at the sky, not blinking once.

My hands cupped his face. I wiped some of his hair away from his bleeding forehead. "I do care, I'll show you just please wake up." My voice cracked. I sniffed wiping my cheek.

My clothes were soaked and my wet hair stuck to my face and neck. Tears streamed down my face as the wind slowly died down, the thunder and terribly storm stopping.

"Please- please don't go." I whispered.

I just laid there, wind having ceased and the rain become light. I clutched his brown leather jacket, my face buried in his neck.

I shook my head. Why him? He didn't deserve this. He deserved my forgiveness. Why did this have to happen? Why didn't I forgive him? I should've forgiven him, he said sorry, he apologized and tried so hard but I just had to be stubborn. He's gone and now he'll never know how much I care. How am I going to tell Izzi? How will he move on with him gone? How can I live without him?

I cried even more, my thumbs caressing his cold skin. Even- gone he's still just as handsome.

"Oh Chase." I sighed, my voice only a whisper at this point. I heard sirens in the distance as I close my eyes, my head leaning in-
