Chapter 1:

(Rudy's POV)
Everything felt numb. It's cold yet somewhat warm. My eyes were closed but i could see everything. For a glimpse I saw an alternate

world, a world were everything I longed for was there yet... Not everything. My best friend, my love, my everything. I felt my heart ache

for some reason. I clutched my chest and stared at the girl who was holding the casket for my soul warmly in her hands. She was

weeping, weeping loudly at my dead body. I was there next to her the whole time she was calling out my name and trying to wake me

up. I was there holding her warmly but she didn't notice that. She was shaking my body rapidly but i couldn't feel it. Death wasn't

there. I found it odd and absurd. My hands still on her shivering shoulders, my eyes still concentrated on hers. But my heart broke. To

see my beloved girl getting crazy and abondoned in front of me. It just put me to tears. I knew I was gone from her forever. Yet...

Death wasn't there waiting...

.

.
Death wasn't there. He wasn't there to take me away. I concentrated my focus on Liesel Still there in total pain over me. Oh i just wish

that i could be comforting her right now i didn't want my liesel to be in pain because of me. Then suddenly An odd movement caused me

to jump backwards and to be in tears. To wail and suffer. It was the sight of My dead, cold tampered lips to be meeting with hers.

Teardrops went running down her cold bony cheeks and stooped down to mine. I finally got it... The thing I yearned over the years from

the book thief.

.

.

.A kiss from her delicate lips.

.

.

.
I wanted to wake up and kiss her back but that wasn't how it is. It wasn't like romeo and Juliet and this wasn't a fairy tale. My Liesel

then got up and ran. I wanted to run after her but I can't. You saumench...
