- Ashton's POV -
- HOSPITAL, Sunday, 11:30 PM -
- 30 MINUTES LEFT -
By now, I can hear Normani's heart rate getting faster.
She starts to lose consciousness.
"Normani!" I yell out to her.
Her eyes begin to lose shine.
The sound of her slow breathing, and the increase of her heart rate...
It's coming.
"A-Ashton..." Her raspy voice gets softer.
I held her hand tightly.
"Remember me always, Ashton." Her breathing gets slower.
"From the moment you caught me, to the moment you confessed to me..." She faintly smiles.
The moment you said you love me after 2 years...
Every time we held our hands...
The worry in my face when you feel pain...
The panic I had when you lost consciousness...
The sadness when we fought...
And every single kiss and 'I love you' that was done...
"I'll forever love you, even if I'm never her by your side." My grip tightens as tears begin to fall down.
"Thank you, Ashton, for every single kiss, every catch, and..." Her heart rate speeds up, as she closes her eyes.
"And every inch of you loving me, until I die." She smiles, and stops talking.
- 11:55 PM -
- 5 MINUTES LEFT -
I sob softly, rubbing her palm gently.
I kiss her forehead, as her heart rate begins to shift.
And when I blinked, that sound came.
The sound of silence, and the loud straight sound of the heart pulse.
She stopped breathing.
Her smile when she died...broken me.
I feel heartbroken.
She's gone.
I begin to cry harder, and hugged her lifeless body tightly.
I held her helplessly.
She left me.
But I promised her to be strong.
But why can't I be?
She's all I ever loved.
Nothing else.
No one else.
"N-Normani..." I sniffle, and tightened the hug.
I held her cold hand, and kissed it gently.
This was the day, that I lost her.
If only she didn't have that illness.
Why did it have to be her?
Why is it so hard to say goodbye to her?
I can feel every inch of me shaking.
I place my head onto hers, and cried for the rest of the night.
Goodbye, Normani Andrea Wilson.
Please stay with me, even if I can't see you, or hug, or even kiss you.
I love you, more than the galaxy could ever have.
I'll cherish you, forever and always.
