Will's POV

Previously…..

He sounded like he was calling to me through water. What was going on? Paul! I have to get back to Paul. I tried to open my eyes again. But I was just so tired. Too tired to open my eyes.

All I want to do is sleep…But they wouldn't let me…..

Paul's POV

"NO!" The raw shattering cry filled the air. Everyone paused then started yanking on the doors, Sam and I bolted as soon as it was wide enough for us to run in. Will looked blue and she was shivering, "I'll die…I have…to keep…going…" She panted. NO! She was dying! Ten more rows and I'd be there. Her life was slipping away faster than I could run! And there was no fucking thing I could do to fix it!

A sharp pain filled gasp echoed in the room taking my eyes off of Will for seconds I noticed Jared bolt upright clawing at his shoulder. Tears of pain rolling down his face. Then he noticed Will on the ground next to him and me. Now that I think back on it, I must have looked like a mad-man or some crazed moron running towards him the way I was. Jared looked confused.

"WILL!" I screamed clasping onto my knees and sliding to a stop to Will, and Jared who was now next her. My knees hurt but beyond that was the pain that I could feel from her. Will's body was truly dying. I could feel like it was my own body. "Please, Will, stop. Jared's alive. He's breathing you can stop!" I begged her.

Scooping her up in my arms, I nearly dropped her. She was freezing! Not just cold. But colder than a leech cold. Like a leech was sucking all of her body heat out of her. And replacing it with dry ice and liquid nitrogen (yes I know what that is. I did actually listen in my science class…geez)

"Paul?" Will whispered/rasped. She could hear me? Good!

"Hey, Will. Come on. Come back to me!" I whispered holding her close and pressing my lips to her forehead. Jared looked confused beyond belief now. He had no idea what was going on. Only that Will was having problems. "Will, babe! Hey Will, talk to me! Come on babe! Please." She shook her head, and her eyes slowly fluttered.

"WILLUS! YOU LISTEN TO ME! You stay awake! You can't sleep!" Will didn't move only breathed deeply as if she were asleep. "Will?" panic grew in my chest.

"I'm…still….with you….Paul," she muttered. A cold hand touched my shoulder and brought with it a burning sick sweet smell.

"Doctor?" Jared asked noticing the smell as well. I glanced up Dr. Fang nodded at me and reached out to touch Will. Growling I glared at him. There was no way, no way, he was gonna take Will from me. He backed off but looked at her again.

"Paul I need to lie her down." He looked at her again studying her, "You can still hold her head but we need her lying flat." Slowly I let go of her allowing him to move her.

Will's POV

"She's awake." I felt cold fingers flit over my body, "Miss Willus appears to be physically alright but mentally, emotionally and in a way physically spent and hurt."

"Physically how?" Paul asked grabbing both my hands.

"She's over exhausted herself. She can't sleep though for her body could shut down." There was a long pause. "I got put her to sleep but keep her awake just enough that she'd be alive barely…"

"But?" Paul asked.

"But she could die."

"Do it!" Paul barked. I felt the stab of a needle in my arm and the cool liquid enter my system. I couldn't breathe. This is not happening! That lying vampire lied. I moan and could feel Paul's arms lift me up and walking with me. And then darkness… Soothing relaxing peaceful darkness….
