Summary: In "They Keep Killing Suzie," what was Owen doing while Jack was trying to kill Suzie?
As Jack kept shooting Suzie, waiting for her to just fucking die already, I held Gwen gently in my arms, my tears falling onto her face.
"Please," I whispered. "Please come back. I know I never said it but-" I was cut off with a sob that seemed to rumble through my whole body, making me shudder.
"What's happening Owen?" shouted Jack.
"Nothing!" I called back. He seemed a million miles away from where I was. "Gwen, you're so much stronger than this. I know you are. But I'm not. I can't live- I can't breathe without you."
"Tosh! Break the glove!" screamed Jack. A minute later, Suzie collapsed and Gwen opened her beautiful hazel eyes.
"B-but I was-" she started, but was shaking too hard to continue. She started to sob, trembling uncontrollably, and I just held her close, rocking back and forth.
"You're okay now," I murmured gently, even though fresh tears were still dripping off of my face. "You're fine. You're alive. It won't happen again." I kissed her hair, where just moments before there had been a bullet wound. "I promise."
