I don't own the OC; or either of the actors...

And so it Begans…

He looked to his side and saw the last thing we wanted to see, the thing he feared the most…her body saying goodbye to life, he could feel her breathing getting heavier, shorter by the moment. The smell of leaking gasoline and fire, made him come back to reality. He pulled himself out of his seat, then pulled her close to him, while unbolting her, he took her in his arms and started walking away from the car, a few seconds later he could hear a blast, pieces of metal hitting the ground behind him, a huge blast as each piece hit the road.

He kneeled in the distance, when his knee collapsed, he couldn't walk anymore, laying her body in the cold road, with all the care and love he had for her. He took a second to proceed what had happened, Volchox had driven him out of the road, leaving him with one pale, almost lifeless Marissa in his arms. He took a deep sigh and looked her in the eyes, they were so blue so full of life, still he saw the fear, the scared girl that she used to be and that she was turning into someone a lot more strong.

She wasn't afraid; as she manages to pull out a smile. When she saw the sadness, the anger, the lust, the fear that was growing in his eyes, but most of all she saw the love that they shared and that it was stronger than anything. She could sense things where going to be hard for them, she wasn't sure if she would make it, through the night. Like a whisper she heard is voice.

Marissa, I will go get help?

No…please, stay. I want you here…. She mumbled with a face of pain, because in that moment, she felt like a knife rolling inside her stomach, making her hurt. Then she slowly closed her eyes.

Marissa please don't… Wake up. Was all he could let out as her bodies loosen up, her eyes closing so slowly and her mouth trying to speak… I love you, Marissa Cooper, he left out so fairly, so weak, like a wind in a star sky, he wanted to scream, know why this life was so unfair, then something made him turn is head to her, her hand was holding his, her fingers where entwined with his, and she squeezed it, very weakly but he felt it and that was all he needed, he struggled with his jeans, to get his cell phone out of his bruised knee, dialing 911 as fast as he could, it was only a second between the minute he called and someone answering, for him it felt like one eternity.

911, what's your emergency?

I need one ambulance to A32… he scanned is surrounds looking for a place he knew…near the tunnel, below interstate 4… I think she might not make it.. he lets it out as his eyes become watered. And a huge pain across his chest, like his heart would blow out and never become all again.

All right, sir. we will send it right away.

Every second his like a minute, every minute like one hour, when the ones you love are in pain, despair takes over you, as you sense that there is nothing you can do. There is nothing worse than feeling helpless, even saying a bad joke, at the most inappropriate moment, can make someone laugh, but being like this doesn't, he rather be beaten up, that letting this happen to her, why her, why not Trey, Volchox, someone who didn't deserve the chance they got…

Ryan felt her body relax one more time, her eyes where now closed, her breast wasn't moving, he could feel himself getting numb, and his body collapsing on his own knees, keeping his arms around her, pulling her close to him…. And then it all was dark….
