"I am damaged."
Veronica looked at JD's eyes, took in his freckles, his scruffy, curly hair, his face. He smile gently at her.
"Far too damaged."
She backed away slightly. He had hurt her.
"But your not beyond repair."
She looked up confused, as he reached his hand out for the bomb.
"Stick around here. Make things better."
She let silent tears fall from her face, tears welling in his eyes. "Let go.." he whispered. She loosened her grip on the ticking bomb.
"Cause you've beat me fare and square "
He stood up and offered his hand to her.
"Please stand back now."
She took his hand in hers and got up, shuffling backwards, confused. Why did he need space to defuse a bomb?
"Little further."
She slide backwards a step.
"Don't know what this thing will do."
What?
"Hope you miss me, wish you'd kiss me, then you'd know I worship you."
He stepped further away, his bullet wound pouring blood, his face slowly turning pale from blood loss and fear.
"I'll trade my life for yours..."
"Oh my god..."
She reached her hand out, crying. As stupid as it was, a world without Jason Dean was not one she wanted to be in. Not alone. He was her escape.
"And once I dissapear.."
"Wait..hold on!"
She stepped closer to him. She couldn't let him go. He couldn't leave her. Why would he leave her?!
"Clean up the mess down here!"
"Let me say!"
"Our love is god."
Five..
She took a step closer to him.
"Our love is god."
Four...
He stepped back.
"Our love is god."
Three...
She looked around, for a way to stop him.
"Our love is god."
Two...She ran right into him, wrapped her arms around his neck, kiss him quickly, and looked into his eyes.
One...Let's say hi to god."
End
