"I'll never let go," I said, too frozen to cry.
I kissed his hand wanting more than anything for his crystal blue eyes to slide open. I let him go and watched him sink. My wish came true. His eyes popped open and he started coughing. He tried as hard as he could to swim up but couldn't. My eyes widened and I thrust my hand into the thick blanket of dark water and grabbed him. I pulled as hard as my frozen arms would let me and his head broke the calmness of the blanket. "You're alive," I said as enthusiastically as I could. He tried to smile, "I know."
"Hello," It was faint but we both heard it. "Is they're anyone alive out there," I saw a flashing light in the distance. I rolled myself off the board I was on and swam to a man with a whistle frozen to his lips. I ripped it out of his mouth and blew as hard as I could. I could barely hear it, but the men in the lifeboat must have. "We're coming!" I heard, "Just stay put!" I swam back to Jack. "They're coming back," I said to him.
