Pain

My eyes are nearly closing. I'm sitting next to Eric as he lays, injured, in a hospital bed. Why do these things keep happening? Is it too much to ask for a simple life? He was just walking into Ithi's office and some lunatic stabbed him. He was supposed to be safe with Ithi. I don't want to let go of his hand for fear he will slip away from me.

It's so strange. I felt like I was in love before now, but it was nothing like this. There were always conditions. Something that didn't feel quite right. I can't think of anything that makes me doubt this love. Perhaps I've grown up.

I haven't kept track of time so I am probably babbling on. I lay my hand over his chest to feel his heart beating, rest my head on the bed and close my eyes.
