Chapter 5
(John's point of View...)
The cemetery. It's weird how it will be the last place I'll ever see. Some sort of twist of fate it is in fact. I've got to say that dying in a cemetery is the most thrilling way to die. I could've die in a plane crash, or I could've drown saving a child from a shark. I could've die like the hero I always wanted to be, but no. I'll die in a cemetery like the coward I've always been. I was seriously beginning to have second thoughts about this.
"Lorraine, maybe we shouldn't."
"I thought I'd be the one to chicken out first." she said with a weak smile. "But I have to do it John."
I swallowed.
"Then I'll do it with you. You won't die alone. I love you Lorraine."
"You do?"
"Yeah."
"Well, I do love you too."
I smiled. My first real smile in weeks.
