"redith!" Atlas shouted as the blood drained from his face. His arms quickly wrapped around redith who was falling down. Tears welled in the bottomless hazel pools of her eyes.
redith felt the pain sweeping inside her, her eyes fluttered but she didn't want them to close. She just wanted to be in his arms for the last ti.
"redith!" Atlas yelled, panic and fear evident in his voice. Tears fell from his eyes and redith frowned. She didn't want him to cry.
Her head was now in his lap and his hand was on her stomach which was gushing with blood. Soone had shot her. Why or how? She had no idea. It all happened in a split second for it to make sense.
She felt hot liquid on her cheeks and her brows furrowed. Atlas was crying. Never did she think he would see this side of him.
"Jas call an ambulance!" He commanded not taking his eyes off her as if he was afraid, she would disappear if he did.
"Baby. Angelyou promised . neverleave . please." Atlas sobbed like a baby and it broke her heart even more.
"Shssss..." her lips curled into a sad smile while she lifted her hands that were now stain with her blood. She cupped his cheeks and gazed right through his eyes. Imprinting every detail of him into her mind.
"Stay with
Angel...just stay....I will give you all of my heart if you stay with .." Atlas cupped her face.
"A-atlas.it's hurts." She said, her voice barely a whisper.
"You're going to be fine, Angel. just stay strong just for a little while." He begged.
redith eyes fluttered; it was getting so difficult for her to stay awake but she knew once she closed her eyes, she wouldn't see him again.
Every girl wished for a prince charming to sweep her off her feet. Who would love her every perfect and imperfection. Who would pressed a kiss on top of her head and look at her as if was the only star left in the sky and redith wasn't any different.
Every book she read, she wished for a perfect man like the male leads in her book who would do anything to make their won happy. She was jealous of them. How lucky they were to have found love while she rots in her room. Then she had t Atlas Martini.
He wasn't no hero but for her she was. He might be twisted, broken and hurt but that's what she loved about him.
mories of Atlas played behind her half-closed eyes and she smiled. He had let her experienced how it felt to fall in love and how her body was capable of giving her mind-blowing pleasure.
Their love story might have just started but it was the most beautiful one she could ever wished for. She might not be able to walk along the beach with him when they finally grow old but the mories, they had created these past few days would be with her forever.
He had let her live out her fantasies and she was happy, happy while all of it lasted. She was now in his embrace and that's all that mattered. At last, she got to die in his arms.
She knew this was selfish and he might never get the mory of her dying in his arms out of his mind. Maybe she was the selfish one. If this was the last ti, her eyes could see then he was the last person she wanted to see.
Tears were flooded out of Atlas's eyes as he looked at her. He looked so broken as if all of this was his doing. He was shaking his head and whispering, "Sorry.sorryy.all my fault.fuck"
"i.t'snot.."
"No, I shouldn't have co into your life.cursed.dying because of .never forgive myself" his voice broke down.
Stupid man. redith wanted to scream a him but she was so tired that her mouth couldn't form the words. If only he knew how happy he had made her. He brought sunshine into her bitter life and for that she would always be thankful.
"sl-e-e-p. t-i-r-ed." Tears trickled down her cheeks as she looked at Atlas.
"Nojust hold on a little moreplease.Angeldon't leave . Our story just started and it wouldn't end like this. If I have to sell my soul to get you back I would do it. You're mine and no one can take you away from . Not even death."
redith forced a smile. She felt so cold and at that mont, she knew she was about to leave this cruel world once and for all. She was going to leave him all alone. She wouldn't see him smile again, he wouldn't kiss her forehead or make her body beg for his touch again.
It hurts so much. The fear of leaving a loved one alone in this world. She just wanted him to kiss her forehead once before she left this world.
She wanted to utter the words that she had been so scared to say these past few days. She wanted his scent to be last thing she rembers, wanted his touch to be last thing she rembered.
She didn't know when she had fallen in love with him but she knew she love him more than anything.
"At..las..promise..you would..." She paused taking a deep breath.
"Move on.don't bla yourself...it's not your fault.hope- you- find love again..happy be.."
"No! if it's not you then I don't want anyone else. Just hold on."
The sound of ambulance blared in the background.
"Hear that Angel? They're coming to save youplease just hold on a little longer for .."
redith's smiled, " I love you, At-las" She whispered.
She was so weak. It was a miracle she was still breathing now.
"Angel!..." Atlas said his voice husky and coarse.
"I love you." redith interrupted him, letting her final breath before her eyes closed and her body went limp in his arms.
"No..nonot..again.please.wake up..baby..Angel.you promised .never leave ...what a lie" Atlas sobbed holding her body closer to his chest.
