Last Breath
She heard the shot ring out, the next thing she felt was the white hot pain shooting through her chest. She was falling but before she could hit the ground she felt him catching her in his arms, He was always there for her like that. He slowly brought her to the ground.
"Oh, God Marguerite what have you done."
All she could do was stare up in his beautiful eyes. Roxton was yelling at Challenger to the medical supplies out of his pack. Marguerite reached her hands up and grabbed Roxton's saying.
"Don't Roxton, I'm dying there's nothing you can do."
"Marguerite you just have to hang on, we'll get through this, you'll be alright, you'll be alright."
As the muscle spasms slowly took control over Marguerite's body, she knew she wouldn't see the next sunrise. She said to Roxton,
"Roxton, Listen to me, I know I'm going to die and I want you to know you mean everything to me, I love you, you mean everything to me, I love you, you're the only man I've ever loved. You showed me how to love again. You gave me the greatest gifts anyone has ever given me, I love you."
As the spasm slowly shook her body, she reached up one more time to touch him. Her eyes slowly closed, and with her last breath she said "I love you."
"No, please Marguerite please don't leave, please, I love you, Please."
He cradled her closely to his chest as if with shear will power he could bring her back to life. He knew his life would never be the same. She had left him by trying to save his life but he knew that with her last breath she had taken his heart with her. He was empty now, never to love again.
