Alex's POV

The concrete pathway is wet. Alongside this road, miles and miles of green adorn the view. Old, imposing trees, one after the other, standing tall in the darkness of the night.

I can smell the grass, the wood... nature. And believe me, the full moon shining majestically in the vast sky is absolutely breathtaking. The only thing that can be heard is the raindrops hitting my car.

I'm standing ouside it, and I must be crazy because I'm drenched to the bones, but I don't really care. At all. There's nothing that can make me feel right. I'm feeling really lost and all sense of purpose just vanished when my mom died. And I can't recover, I don't even want to live, I'm alone and nobody cares. I don't care.

I take off my glasses because they are foggy and I can't see shit. I really can't tell how long I have been here, but it doesn't matter because I've nowhere else to be. So I scream, and I cry and I mourn. Mourn her death, but also mourn the loss of soul.

I can feel myself shattering to a thousand pieces. I kneel down to my knees and sit down. Wishing to die. That's it, if I die then I might be able to see her again, and I could get rid of this bullshit.

Is there any reason I shouldn't do it right now?

Piper's POV

Just a great idea, really Piper, you're brilliant! Driving in the rain! Absolutely fucking brilliant.

I think I should stop somewhere and wait...

No, it could be dangerous, there's only trees around, what if anyone comes out from there and rapes me?

She burst out laughing at that thought and just tried to chill, listening to music on her speakers.

"I've been taken with a new emotioooooooon" she was singing too loud, but didn't care, she was alone and no one could judge her.

She was driving slowly when she noticed something odd. There, barely 10 yards away from her was parked a black car, and she was really scared.

Oh my god, what if they kidnap me?, oh no, what do I do? So, naturally, she sped up. And didn't even stop to look what was the deal, until several yards away that she saw her.

She stepped out of the car, and started running to the motionless body. Her heart was thumping in her chest. What could possibly have happened to her?

She was a stranger, but nonetheless another human being. And reaching her, she saw that it was a ravishing one.

Oh my god. She couldn't think, she couldn't move, never in her life did she imagine she would witness something like this. She felt tears starting to trickle down her cheeks at the sight in front of her.

She saw a beautiful girl, black hair, white skin, lying unconscious with a pool of blood around her arms. Not far from her, there was the reason of those deep cuts.

She desperatly reached for her cellphone and dialed 911 with shaking hands.

Alex's POV

This pain. I can acknowledge it. I can embrace it. It's finally taking me to where I want. This beautiful pain.

She was no longer crying, the stinging of the freshly made cuts was too much. It hurt like nothing else she had felt in her entire life, but she was smiling.

She let herself bleed, and lied down, just waiting for the end of it all. She could feel herself letting go, she wasn't able to move anymore, her heart was beating too slow, her lungs screamed for air, she closed her eyes.

Piper's POV

Piper kneeled down and put her fingers on the girl's pulse point, dreading to not feel anything there. But there it was, a really feeble pulse.

So she put her hand on the brunette's cheek and started caressing her, tenderly.

"Hey, you can't let go! They are coming. Please, stay here. Don't give up!" She was telling the black haired woman, her face inches away from her.

"Please, I beg you, don't give up" she was watching intently at the brunette, ocasionally checking her pulse, and never stopping the talking.

She had her eyes fixed on the closed eyelids. "Don't go, please".

And the most beautiful thing happened.

Alex's POV

The words came to her like whispers. She couldn't make out most of them.

She wasn't even sure if she was listening to something or if it was her mind.

She was in a blur, going in and out of consciousness, but there was one moment where she actually heard her clearly.

"Please, I beg you, don't give up"

Silence

"Don't go, please". It actually sounded inviting. Like she could hear that voice forever and feel other thing but sadness.

So, she tried to open her eyes, barely making it.

In the distance the ambulance sirens could be heard.

Emerald met blue eyes.

I'm already in heaven.
