DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of these characters, but i wish i owned Josh Hartnet...*WHEW*! anyway, i don't own
the movie either. And the title is taken from the name of an old hymn.
NOTE: As requested, another Pearl Harbor fic from me;) It's Danny's last thoughts as he's dying in China when the
Japanese soldiers ambushed the US soldiers during the Doolittle Raid. I'm really sorry that it's so short, but i had this
incredible urge to write it so I hope you guys like it, please REVIEW! and don't forget to review my other story, "Fly Away
From Here". I'm writing a prequel/sequel to it right now:) -Dana-
Nearer My God To Thee
God Rafe, I'm sorry. And I can't even say it, all I can do is look at you. It hurts, it really hurts...I never
thought being shot would feel like this, like I'm open and I'm pouring out. I feel like a goddamn faucet. I don't know
why I have to die now, I've still got so much I wanna change, so much I wanna make better between us. Take Evelyn, keep
her--she's yours forever if you'll forgive me now! I know why this is happening. I was always told that the bad things I do in life'll
catch up with me in due time. I really fucked it up this time, didn't I? I see it now, and I'm sorry! I was confused, I thought you
were dead--so I turned to her. She was the closest thing to you that I could find, Rafe. Pretty ironic, though, isn't it? Everyone
thought you were dead and gone, but now I'm the one who's never coming back. Don't cry dammit! It hurts more when you cry.
You got salt in those tears of yours buddy, and you know what salt does to wounds! It's alright now, though, I can't hardly
feel it anymore. Your getting a little fuzzy there Rafe. Don't leave now! Don't leave me here, i'm too scared to be by myself now!
I can't hear what you're saying...Evelyn's pregnant? Shit, I can say this--I can make myself say this. It's yours Rafe, you
deserve that baby more than me. You can be a daddy now. No crying, what'd I tell you?? Wait, wait don't go! It doesn't hurt
anymore, the pain's gone! I'm better, so stop crying...how come everything's sinking? Either that or I'm flying--but that's impossible.
You're getting really pale, Rafe. Rafe! Stop it! I can't even see you anymore! Why's everything so quiet now? Why's everything
so...empty?
