#Chapter20

Together

I felt as if the ground had shifted from beneath me. By breaths came out in gasps.

It couldn't be.

I was probably hallucinating it all because of the blood loss.

I looked up and my eyes locked with Wills grey ones, and at that moment I knew that it was true, no hallucination. Two grey orbs stared at me, swirling with so much emotion. Emotions I couldn't quite read.

/"Marriah please./" He reached out for me again, his eyes pleading with me.

I stepped back, away from him, like his touch would burn me.

/"Don't touch me!/" I spat out. /"S-stay away./"

I was getting dizzy now, the exhaustion was finally getting to me. This was all too much. I struggled to keep my eyes open but my legs gave way and I slid to the floor.

I saw Will run towards me, I was too tired to move away. Suddenly I felt myself being lifted up in two strong arms.

/"Leave me alone./" I managed a whisper.
