When Mara woke up,the pain of her wound assaulted her. And she would've even healed herself,if she hadn't seen Alex lying on the floor,her body almost lifeless. She painfully sat up and grabbed her wrist to feel for a pulse,right when she was opening her beautiful eyes. She tried to heal her injury,but no blue light came out of her hand and this made her punch the floor. "Mara",Hey,do you see?We made it","That's cause I said so". Mara laughed and Alex said:"you're hurt too","I don't care", "Please don't…just get out of here,you can make it,I have faith in you","Well maybe I don't want to get out,not if you can't too,you're the only one that I've ever trusted and…loved in my life","So what?You'll die for me?","I love you,so I will,I'll die,screw anyone","I love you too". Mara laid down besides her and grabbed her hand."You got a good knife", "Hurts like hell. Oh shit I might burst,oh shit","Mara stop swearing.I don't want you to die swearing." "Well then I won't,you made me believe in heaven,made me believe in him again,'cause he's always with you. Thank you for showing me heaven." Alex squeezed her hand and turned to look at her. She wanted to die looking in her girl's eyes. Mara gathered all the strength she had left and raised her upper body up,then she softly landed a kiss on Alex' lips. Their breaths were both shallow now and so she leaned her forehead on Alex'.In one last desperate try to save her she tried to use her power again,but it didn't work. "Alex?",she received no answer from her girlfriend. "Alex c'mon don't do this to me,Alex.I should've tried more. Please heal, please stay with me,Alex…wait for me." She felt the pain in her chest doubling and stayed where she was. If people had ever found them,then they would've found her like this. And since she had no more strength to scream to the world how much she loved Alex and how much she had changed her,then people would've had to make the connection by seeing her lying on top of the person she loved. There couldn't have been any better way to die than looking into those cobalt eyes,kissing her soft lips,touching the hands that had healed hers and caressed her face…oh not so many hours ago. So when they came she gladly welcomed the feeling of sleepiness and the painless limbo,where she could hear Alex calling for her. She heard the voice calling her name again,so she turned her head to the left and sure enough Alex was there,kneeing next to her,looking as good as before she had died;as if she hadn't died at all. Maybe that was what a person going to paradise looked like.A tear rolled down her cheek,but she smiled. Alex was stroking her face again and she could feel it,feel her wiping her tear away. Then she stopped seeing altogheter. She wondered if she had lost her sight just like Cecilia,but then she understood. It was as if all the lights had been turned on and not only the ones burning in her eyes,but the whole hallway's. She sat up on the floor and felt a slight sense of déjà vu as she saw Alex' still body lying there where she was too. This could mean only one thing. She was dead too.A strange wind blew around her,then the breeze turned in a person she knew really well. Alex was smiling and reaching out for her,just like she had done for their whole stay in that school. She accepted the hand without daring to speak,so to not ruin their moment,and beamed like she had never had in her short young life. When they were to the same heigth,though not having ever been an hugger,Mara hugged her blondie. Alex hugged her back laughing. Being able to touch even in death sounded like a dream to them. Then they kissed. It was long and passional and nothing could've stopped them from carrying on with it,hadn't a bright light blinded them. It was time for them to move on,so they grabbed hands and walked together towards the light. "Why don't you show me this paradise of yours?"
