Adventure #7 / Romance #26

Chapter Twenty-Seven

I could hear Lee shouting and screaming. However, I could not make out what he was actually saying. Heading straight towards the boulder again, but only faster this time scared the hell out of me. All I could do was scream out; as there was nothing else, I could do to save us.

Looking over at Damon, he was still unconscious; his face was completely covered in blood, from the deep cut on his forehead. Knowing this was the end, “Damon I Love you more than you will ever know, and thank you so much for making my last few months of my life the best”. “Our unborn baby will be coming with us now love, and please god, I hope that the three of us will meet on the other side”.” Bye for now my love” I said to him as I sobbed my heart out. Keeping my eyes on Damon, I did not want to watch as we fall to our deaths, as all I wanted now was his face to be the last thing I see.

As we banged into the boulder I screamed out “I love you” Then it felt as if the car stopped but knowing we were just gliding over the edge I kept my eyes on Damon. As much as I wanted to look in front of me, I couldn’t tare my eyes away from Damon, as I was to scared that I wouldn’t get to have my last vision of him.

“Sheena,” I heard someone calling, I looked down at Damon’s lips to see if they were moving. “Sheena can you hear me?” I was still watching Damon’s mouth and knew dam well it was not him, but then who could it be, I thought to myself. “SHEENA” I heard someone scream out again. Feeling my heart speed up with adrenalin of hope, I started to scream out. “LEE HELP US”. I slowly tore my eyes away from Damon and looked out in front of me; we were exactly where we were before they tried to tow us out. Excited at knowing that we still had a chance, “Damon we still have a chance hunny, we are still alive”, I shouted at him with excitement.

Hearing the sound of the chains coming towards us again, made me nervous and excited at the same time. There was still a chance of us getting out of here alive, and right now, I was putting all my faith and hope into Lee and his men.

“Sheena ready?” I heard Lee shout quickly, I could hear the panic in his voice, but knew he was trying hard to cover it up. “Ready” I shouted back. That when I heard the engine roar and the chains jingling. Feeling the car jerk as the chains tightened, and then we started moving, only this time they were pulling us up much faster. All I could do was pray, as I watched us move further away from the boulder and the edge.

My heart was racing so fast I was starting to feel dizzy, as the view was changing from the boulder to black and white spots. I tried to take deep breaths but it was not working, as my body was too exhausted to fight anymore. I tried my hardest to stay awake but I could feel the blackness taken over me. I couldn’t hear anything, feeling like the car was closing in around me, was making me feel Closter phobic. “Lee help me please” I tried to shout out, but then blackness took over me.

Waking up by a loud crashing had me screaming out in fear. As all I could vision was the car rolling back towards the boulder. However,  as much as I wanted to open my eyes  to see what was happening I couldn’t, my whole body felt so numb that I was starting to freak out. Feeling a soft hand stroke my face started calm me down; slowly I tried opening my eyes, but I was so scared of what was I was going to see I stopped and just squeezed them tighter closed.

“Sheena its ok, open your eyes please, it’s me Lee,” he pleaded. Without waiting another second, I opened my eyes and to my relief, Lee was there kneeling down beside me. I could see that he has been crying as there were still tears streaming down his face. He just stared straight at me; his expression was mixed with so many different emotions. Then seeing the pain and loss show clearly on his face, “NO” I screamed out as I struggled with him to get up. It was only then did I notice that I was all wired up on the ground; I could see the paramedics working on someone just across from me. “Damon, Fight God dam you, you cannot leave me DAMON,” I screamed out through my sobs. Lee had such a strong hold on me it was as if my life depended on it.

 After a while, I gave up trying to fight Lee off and sunk my body against the hard ground, and just cried out hysterically. I kept calling out to Damon, hoping he would reply. I kept watching at the paramedics while they worked on Damon, however, I could not see him as a couple of officers were stood over him blocking my view. My heart felt like it was going to stop as every part of me had no feeling, I could see Lee had his hand on my face, but I could not feel it. All I wanted to do was to run over to Damon and shake him until he wakes up.

Feeling frustrated I turned to face Lee, seeing the worry in his eyes had me wondering if I should tell him or not. Nevertheless, I needed to tell him, I thought to myself. “Lee, I’m pregnant, you can’t let him die please, our child needs a dad,” I pleaded with him, hoping there was something he could do to keep him alive. However, the look on his face shocked the hell out of me, and then he left out a heart-wrenching scream before he collapsed beside me crying hysterically.  

Holding on to each other, we cried our hearts out it was as if the world around us had disappeared, and there was only Lee and I left. Feeling the emptiness inside of me had me wishing Damon and I could have just fallen over the edge at least that way we could have died together. Now I’m left here alone in the world, with our poor unborn child fatherless. I thought to myself, as I stroked my stomach. Lee grabbed hold of my hand off my stomach and held onto it, as he continued to cry. Taking a glance over to where Damon was I screamed out, as he was nowhere in sight they had already taken him away. ”NO” I screamed out, as I frantically tried getting up.

With my arm strapped up against my chest, was not making it any easier. As I managed to lift the top half of me up, Lee tried to pull me back down but there was no way I was just going to lay here while not knowing where they had taken Damon. Sitting up I seen that the bottom half of my body was smothered in blood, my blood! I tried to see where the blood was coming from, only Lee stopped me “Sheena I’m so sorry,” he said with his voice breaking. I looked up at him wondering what he was saying sorry to me for. Feeling confused and a little light headed, “Lee what have you got to be sorry for?” I asked him.

He lowered his head to the ground; as if he was trying to hide his face from me, sensing that was hiding something from me. ”Lee” I called him, but he ignored me. All my worries and sadness was quickly fading away, as I started to get angry. “Lee tell me now?” I almost ordered him. Snapping his head up, he gave me a worried look. “Sheena, hmmm, I don’t know how to tell you this he said lowering his head down again.”Lee I have been through enough today already, so you better tell me now or I will kill you, you hear me,” I shouted at him. He nodded his head up and down, and then took in a deep breath, making my anger boil up inside me even more. “Sheena, I’m sorry but you lost the baby… everything froze.

 I placed my hand on my stomach. Please god no, you can’t do this to me, you just can’t. I cannot live on my own again, I need Damon, I need our baby, please God take me. Take me to my baby and Damon please. I repeatedly begged like never before. I felt something sharp jab me in the arm sending me into darkness.

I hope you all enjoyed this chapter
