Uh… Don't ask me how he got stabbed, okay? Cuz I have NO idea whatsoever… Plus I just felt like writing something emo… I was in home ec when I wrote this… And if you watch Inuyasha, this can either be Edward or Inuyasha… Somehow.

Warmth

The cold feeling spread through him, starting at his chest and leaking to the surface. The cool, red liquid that had been drawn from his heart. It clung to his clothes, staining them the crimson hue. He lay there, on his back with his eyes open, staring blankly at the ceiling. With the cold spread a warmth, somehow peaceful to him as he lay still. He slowly closed his eyes, and with his slowing heartbeat, his breath came out in long gasps.

'Maybe it will end here,' he thought with a weak smile. 'Maybe it will finally end.'

His cold fingertips gently touched the cut above his heart, and he was surprised when he felt the pounding vibration surge through his arm. His breath caught in his throat, and again he smiles frailly.

'But… It won't end, will it?'

A single tear trailed down from his yellow eyes onto his pale cheek.

'I have to keep going… Keep living… I need to see her again…'

He slowly propped himself up, and the red liquid leaked from his heart.

'I have to keep… going…'

The blood streamed down his chest, but the cold was gone. He felt warmth.
