The elevator dinged beside us, but I didn’t want to separate my lips from
Dean’s.
My body felt light and giddy after having just emptied myself of the other
powers I had drained. Yet the world felt so full now, of new possibilities. Of
romance. I could taste the salt of Dean’s tears and the sweetness of his
tongue and didn’t care that half of Limbus stared at us from down the
corridor. Dean and I embraced each other with needy arms, living only for
this kiss that we had been denied for so long.
Dean slowed down first, drawing back softly. I didn’t ever want the moment
to end, but then he did something that filled my heart even more.
He pressed his temple against mine, and whispered into my ear, “I love
you.”
I didn’t even have to think. The words shot up from my very heart itself. “I
love you too.”
Dean squeezed me around the waist and kissed my cheek slowly.
“Everything will be different now. Everything will be amazing.”
My eyes were on Dean, his shallow breaths, his purple lips, his closed
eyelids.
His hand was cold and still in mine.
Machines helped him breathe, monitored all his vital functions, pumped
nutrients and fluids into his body that couldn’t support its own needs. They
whirled and beeped, matched by others around the Limbus ward, the only
sound in the room.
It had been more than a week since the leech had got to Dean. A week of
sleepless nightmares and unstoppable tears.
I squeezed Dean’s hand. I had dragged him into this life, the world of
empaths. This was my fault. All my fault.
The moment I found Dean at the train station still felt like a dream, or a
nightmare. I had slumped, curled up beside Dean’s lifeless form on the
platform concrete. The agents close by had arrived, then the Crossmans
came, and my parents, and everyone tried to console me, tell me it was
going to be okay, but I was lost.
My chest was tight with heartbreak; I wanted, needed, to be with him. His
body was here, but I knew he wasn’t. Not the real Dean.
“Hi Livvy. Back again, I see.” One of the nurses pushed the curtain aside
and smiled at me with pitying eyes.
“Every day,” I replied, trying to force a grin.
Limbus had been good about letting me come in and see Dean whenever I
wanted. They knew I needed to be here. I couldn’t tear myself away from
him. It was too soon. I felt guilty every time I went home, but I also knew
there was no chance Dean would spontaneously wake up on his own. My
parents had been understanding too, but I knew it wouldn’t last forever.
Eventually I would have to join the land of the living again.
Kimmy followed the nurse over and jumped up onto the end of the bed. She
walked up to nuzzle a soft nose-kiss for Dean and me, then curled up into a
black and white purring ball beside Dean’s tucked in legs.
