Lovino sniffled, accepting the hand, and stepped up to go back under the rail. He froze, eyes wide, as his foot slipped. "Ah, ANTONIO!" He shrieked, clawing the air for something to hold onto, but grabbed only air. "HELP ME!"
"LOVINO!" Antonio screamed, leaning over the railing to grab his hand. Their fingers brushed lightly, before gravity claimed Lovino, pulling him towards the rushing, icy water. He stared down, frozen in complete shock as Lovino gave him a helpless expression. "No no NO!" He shouted, pulling at his hair in despair. He heard a scream, and a splash, and he winced. He felt adrenaline begin to take over his body, and apparently his brain as well, and he dove in after Lovino.

Lovino clenched his eyes shut as his fate neared him. Suddenly, an unimaginable pain shot up his back, and he screamed out in anguish. Freezing water began to creep up on him, dragging him into the dark, unknown depths of the river. He opened his mouth, but water seeped in, stealing all of the air in his weakening lungs. He felt his eyes close, and everything went black.

Antonio felt wind blow his hair back, and he landed in the water with a loud splash. He gritted his teeth as his leg began to throb in pain, as if a knife was sticking out of it. But that was the least of his worries currently. A broken leg was fixable. A dead Lovino was not. The water was freezing, and he felt pins and needles in his arms and legs as he floated to the surface.
"LOVINO!?" He shouted, looking around desperately, until his eyes landed on an unsettling sight. A few, small bubbles had floated to the surface of the water, and he took a deep breath before going back under. It was pitch black underwater, so he had to wave his arms around. When his hand brushed what felt like another hand, he grabbed it, pulling it up. Gasping, he pierced the water's surface, pulling Lovino's lifeless body with him. He looked around frantically for some sort of bank he could take them both to, and his eyes finally landed on a small shore only a few feet from them. Unfortunately, the adrenaline was beginning to wear out, and the consequences of Antonio's actions were starting to take the tolls on his body. Still, keeping Lovino alive was the main priority. With all of his reserved strength, he managed to swim sideways, fighting the current, and flopped on the bank, breathing heavily. When he had managed to catch some of his breath, he stared at Lovino beside him. "Oh my god." Lovino looked nothing like himself. His skin was a deathly pale, and his hair was matted down on his face. His signature curl was lost among his other dark locks. Not wanting to waste another second, he leaned his head against the other's chest, searching for some sort of pulse. He felt nothing.
"Nonononono...NO!" Antonio screamed, pressing his hands against the other's rib cage. His eyes searched for some sort of life, and when nothing was satisfying him, he pressed his lips against the Lovino's, breathing for him. He pulled away, but Lovino still laid motionless.
"NO! PLEASE, LOVINO!" He cried, pressing harder on his motionless chest. Sirens wailed behind him, and he guessed someone had seen them jump in, and had called for help. He waved his arms in the air. "HELP! HELP, PLEASE!" He shouted, cradling Lovino in his arms. The next few moments were a blur to Antonio. Paramedics rushed to them, and loaded them both onto stretchers. Of course, to go through with this action, they had to take Lovino from him. "NO! LOVINO! DON'T LEAVE ME!" He screamed, reaching for him. People in the ambulance tried to calm him, but to no avail. He sobbed hysterically, until they finally sedated him. "N-no, Lovi, please..." He whispered, before letting his heavy eyelids close, falling into a gentle sleep.
