The Good-Bye

Lockwood's POV

I let out a roar of fury. I toss the net on top of the vase and the energy winks out of existence,as if it were never there. I run over to Lucy. Her breathing is shallow and she doesn't respond when I say her name. I pick her up and yell at George to get moving. We both clamber down the ladder and sprint downstairs. George calls a night ambulance. I try not to break down. It should have been me. I cradle my head in my hands. I look over at the vase covered in the silver net. I want to break it with the power of my eyes. Then Lucy mumbles in her sleep.

"Lockwood..." She mutters and shifts her hand up by her throat. She clutches at the silver necklace I gave her this past summer. She holds it like its a life line. I lean over and let my lips brush hers.

"I'm right here Lucy. I'm not going anywhere." Lucy seems to relax in her sleep. I close my eyes, lie down next to her and wait. The night ambulance shows up. Lucy's loaded into the back and me and George get a cab. We follow them to the hospital, George trying to comfort me the whole time. I ignore him though. If Lucy dies its my fault. 

We walk into the room where Lucy is and I take a seat on the edge of the bed. I look at the heart monitor. Still going. It's so close to Christmas. I look up and see George is gone. Probably calling Holly. I get up and leave the room closing the door behind me. I walk down the hall just as George gets off the phone. 

"Let's go home George." I try not to cry but one traitor of a tear slips out. George nods and we head down the hallway and back home. 

As soon was we're through the door I bolt up to my room and close the door. I put my head down on my pillow and fall asleep.

=======Magical time skip===

I wake up to George knocking on my door. I get up groggily and open the door. George is crying.

"George whats the matter?" I ask as I pull him downstairs to make him some tea.

"Lockwood... It's Lucy." I whip around.

"What? What happened?" I ask, clenching and un-clenching my fists.

"Sh-she..." I grab him and shake him by the shoulders.

"Out with it George! What happened?"

"She flat-lined Lockwood. She's dead" 

==========

Please don't kill me. More soon! Now I'm out before I die!
