Almost Lover 2/5- Henry/Vicki
( Part 1. )
Flashback - Mike Pov
I run as fast I can, across the room and straight to Vicki. She's covered in blood, a long and sharp silver dagger stands out of her stomach.
I quickly scoop her into my arms, her shaking body in my arms. She's frozen; just her forehead against my neck makes me shiver.
"Mike?" she mutters, her eyes still shut. For moment I think it strange but then I remember that even if she did open them the result would be the same for her. Darkness.
"Shh, its okay, I'm here now." I wish I could tell her it's all going to be fine, that it's just a cut and it's all going to be fine. But the truth is never that easy, we both know the harder truth. She's dying there isn't a damn thing we can do about that. This truth hurts.
"How did you know it's me?" I ask trying to distract her.
She laughs, "You smell of Chinese takeaway." I laugh too, she suddenly sighs, "I'll miss you."
"Don't be silly," I almost yell, "You're not going anywhere. You're staying here with me."
Vicki smirks at that, tears streaming down her perfect features, then, they stop. I can't feel her warm breath against my neck; I can't hear anything but my own jagged breathing. Nonononono, my Vicki can't be.... Please God not my Vicki.
I carry her all the way outside, the ambulance and police just arriving. If they had come two minuets earlier Vicki would still be alive.
One of the worst things is that I never got to tell her how I feel. I never got to tell her that I love her.
As the paramedic carries her away that my last memories of Vicki will not be of her kicking demon arse, or her eating Chinese with me. My last memories of Vicki will be her lying on the ground covered in blood, her knowing she's going to die, her tears gently rolling down her face, her lifeless body in my arms and her lifeless eyes staring at the night sky, reflecting the stars she would never see...
