Her slim fingers grasped his hands, entwining their fingers together & moving them away from the wound toward her heart, the heart he had owned for so long. His expression pleaded with her to stay, begging her not to leave him without her again.
Tears spilled over as he closed his eyes, taking a deep breath and pressing a chaste kiss to her forehead before pulling her body closer to him and watching her face.
Her heart fluttering & failing she held his hand all the tighter, wanting to erase the terror she saw in his face. As the battle raged on around them, nothing touched the two lovers. Locked in their own private world one last time.
Lips mouthing the words `I love you'; she smiled imprinting his face in her mind forever, burning the image into her memory. The last sigh escaped her lips as he held on to one last thought.
Bastards may have won this battle, but she was going home.
Not much but it was bugging me, reviews please.
