Hey guys! Thanks so much for clicking on my story! This is just a short snippet to let you know what's coming soon for Boardwalks. Enjoy and please let me know what you think in the reviews!
The heat was slowly draining from body. I could feel it. And the pain echoing up my rib cage and into my chest ebbed. I hadn't seen it coming. There was no way I could move my torso or attempt to move a leg; my body was too broken. All I could do was lay there and slowly bleed out. A figure suddenly blurred to my side, a whirlwind of limbs and muted sound.
It was him. Pressing his hands to the wound, trying to stop the bleeding. His lips were moving. I tried to read them, but he was talking too fast. A pressure was building between my eyes with a dull ache. I wanted to say something. There was so much I hadn't told him. So much that I needed to say. I used all the strength I could muster to force my lips to move.
It was like trying to make a statue raise it's hand. I was shaking, barely moving my lips at all, hardly getting even whisper out. I love you. Though, I wasn't sure he'd heard. He looked up and to my right, scanning for something, saying more unreadable words. Probably that help was coming. That I would be okay. All those famous clichés. But those are lies.
I moved my eyes up to the night sky. This was probably the last time I would ever see the stars. That was my fate now-death. I let my body relax, trying not to meet my end with too much apprehension. The more I give in the easier it'll be on everyone. I felt him grab my hand, shake my shoulder. He was trying to keep me awake most likely. All I could do was think of an apology.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
And that's it for now! Don't miss the first chapter of Boardwalks on July 13th, PST! Please do let me know what you think, and have a wonderful day!
