Drabbles- The Funeral
Disclaimer- Nope, I don't own 'em. But I love to play with 'em.
Rating- PG 13
Notes- My first drabbles- so please be kind. Mick and Beth's POV's as they looked at each other at Josh's funeral.
Life- Mick's POV
There's nothing stopping me from telling her exactly what is in my heart. Nothing but the ring on her finger, and the tears in her eyes. I don't have time to waste- each moment is precious- but I don't dare say anything. I have this precious time- a time to live, to enjoy what I can- and yet, I can't share it with the one person who could understand what it means to me. I can see the love she has for me in her eyes, but right now the pain of losing him is too much. I'll have to live without her, for now.
Death- Beth's POV
There's a fine line between life and death. I look across the crowd in the cemetery and see a walking embodiment of that line, and I am torn. He could have saved a good man's life- but refused. The reason is understandable- I know he hates what he is- but his decision is like a knife in my heart. From across the crowd, I can read him like a book. His face is etched with sadness, but inwardly, I know he is celebrating his "cure". It's killing me to see him, but I can't look away.
