Aaron’s POV
"Beth…" I called her name while still looking at her puffy eyes and her pale face.
I sat by the bed and held her in my arms, I could see my reflection in Beth’s eyes, but apart from that, there was only sadness there.
I closed my eyes, not wanting to see her despair as I let my head inch down towards her face until my lip made contact with hers.
Her lips were already so dry and pale, there were cracks on her lips too, but I didn’t bother about all those things. I just fulfilled her wish and kissed her passionately.
With my eyes closed, I could feel her tears streaming down from her eyes to my hand. There was also a sharp pain in my lips which made me look at her to see that her lips were also stained with blood.
I wondered if it was my blood or hers when I suddenly felt Beth’s body become motionless in my arms.
"Beth! Beth!" I frantically called her name, but she was no longer responding to me.
