Chapter 64 - Keep Breathing. (2/2)
”Angel…” Atlas whispered gently caressing her cheeks which was ashen now.
”Wake up…...please…will do anything you want just wake up.” he begged.
”Her heart rate is dropping! Inform the hospital to prepare for emergency surgery.”
The leader of the paramedics barked a series of orders. Atlas squeezed his eyes shut and his heart screamed as he watched her lifeless body surrounded by paramedics.
Seeing his bright Angel lying on the stretcher battling for her life brought bad memories. He had seen this scene before and he didn't like the ending.
His heart stopped beating and the air was sucked out of his lungs. He couldn't comprehend how all of this happened.
”She is not breathing!” Machines blared loudly as the paramedics placed an oxygen mask on her.
The whole world seemed to be moving in a slow motion for Atlas. He felt like he was walking in a dream-a horrific nightmarish dream world.
He sat there shaking, a low groaning sound bubbling from his mouth. No-no he couldn't lose her.
Ever since the day he had laid eyes on her, he knew she was special. She was going to be woman who was going to wreak havoc in his perfectly controlled life and oh how right he was.
She made his dead beat for the first time in a long time. She had made him smile and laughed more than he had these past years. She made him want to be a perfect man.
For he was always ready to do anything to put her smile on her face because he loved how her eyes sparkled in excitement when she was happy. Every time her hazel eyes met his blue ones, he felt his heart flutter.
It was like yesterday when she placed his finger in his mouth. When he kissed her in the lift, when he finally claimed her as his. And now she was leaving him. he wanted to hold on, but he couldn't.
He wanted to wake up in the morning with her in his arms forever but he couldn't. He wanted the pain crawling inside him to stop but he couldn't. He was not in control.
He didn't know when but what he did know was that he had given her a part of him. And now that she was gone, he wasn't getting it back.
'I love you.'
Fuck her words echoed in his mind. He would never get the chance to ever say these words to her someday. How cruel.
His mom told him the person we are happiest with is the same person we feel devastated living without and how right she was.
”Don't give up on me Angel...please.”
”Please keep breathing....just keep breathing…”
