broken hearts

Shannon: "I love you too, Sterling." I whispered back. "Very much."

sterling: i smiled then i slowly fall asleep

Shannon: I fell asleep shortly after he did, wondering how long all of this would last until Kyle came, and would momentarily wreck it. All I knew was soon, but not how soon.

sterling: i try not worry about what will happen once kyle show his face i just try to think about peaceful and relaxing things

Shannon: Lots of possible scenarios filled my mind...a couple ending in either Sterling's, Vage's, or my own death. Sometimes two or all. I couldn't wake up, and I whimpered in my sleep. If this continued, I'd start screaming.

sterling: i woke up to shannon and i pull her closer to me to comfort her

Shannon: I finally woke up after another dream or two that was just too real. Too vivid. I stared blankly in shock for a second before hugging Sterling and burying my face in his shoulder as I surpressed the strong urge to cry. He had died in my dream. Dreams. Almost all of them. Always a different, and more grimsome way each time.

sterling:" shannon its okay it will be okay "

Shannon: My throat tightened up so much, I couldn't respond. I pulled away slightly so my tears wouldn't stain his shirt.

sterling: i pull her back after she pull away i just want comfort her as she cry

Shannon: I cried into his shoulder. I tried to form words in my mouth, but I just couldn't. I hated being so vulnerable, hated the fact that I was crying. What ever happened to the Iron Maiden who could take on anything?

sterling:" i'm here shannon for you and nothing can take me away from you "

Shannon: I took deep breaths to calm myself down, but it just barely worked. I had stopped sobbing, but I still cried silently. I told him as my voice cracked, "I know...but...I still think about the 'if's. I can't help it."

sterling:" try not to think about the if shannon its only cause you more worries then you need"

g2g

Shannon: "But I-...all right. I'll try to." (Ok)

Sterling:" do you need something like Vage tea to help you calm down?"

Shannon: I shook my head, "No, I'll be fine without it."

Sterling:" okay Shannon and you sure?"

Shannon: "Yes, I'm sure. All I need is you to stay with me." I whispered softly.

Sterling:" and I will and I won't dare to leave your side"

Shannon: My lips curved into a small smile, but I still half-expected him to just suddenly vanish. Like in my nightmare.

Sterling: I pull her closer to me as I kiss her softy over and over

Shannon: I kissed him back almost urgently before finally realising he was there--flesh, and bone--and he wouldn't disappear.

Sterling: then i pull away and look into her eyes " I love you Shannon "
