My hand tightly gripped his, milky pale in tan. His chest gently rose and fell with each torturous breath, and the bandages covering the left side of his body have become part of him, replacing the arm the once rested there. He was paler than normal, looking closer to death than to life. He just looked so… Peaceful.
I felt tears well up in my eyes. He can't die, he just can't… I ran a hand through my short, choppy locks of hair as I took a deep breath. Don't think like that, he'll be fine…
But it was at that moment that I really thought about life without him. It didn't seem possible, we had been through so much together. I had never thought that we would teach this- 'brick wall'- in our relationship. I didn't want to think about him not being next to me when I woke up, not joining the Military Police with me, not giving small 'good luck' hugs before we went to battle, like the one he had secretly given me before we set off to fight in Trost, only a matter of days before.
Strange… It was only a short time since I had seen those eyes, open and alive, looking at me. It was horrifying to think there was a chance I may never see them again…
The tears in my eyes threatened to spill as I rested a hand on his chest.
"We need you as our leader… Please… Please, don't die…"
I love you, Jean… I need you to lead me…
I know it's really short, I'm sorry!
