GRITTED TEETH and painful smile that gives way to stress or IRRITATION to linger as slender hands pressed into his ABDOMEN ; squints against the august heat and sun that bakes the two of them ALIVE . ( you can't just leave him like this . every bone in your body screams that nothing here SERVES you , that you'd be better cutting your losses and leaving him to BLEED OUT ; bastard man he is . you should . you should . but you can't . you can't . YOU CAN'T save everyone ; a rule beaten into your very being , know it like scripture , but you still have to try . you have to try . )
❛ funny , ❜ sage seethes through hissed tone , ignoring urge to WIGGLE her fingers that keep the bullet wound from bleeding more as the red from him starts to soak hems of white long sleeve shirt . ❛ you're really funny , ❜ but the worry that marrs her face implies differently : eyebrows knitting together and biting down on BOTTOM lip as she tries , and she TRIES to ignore the way her sweat mingles with his BLOOD that seeps out between her fingers . ❛ i told you not to come after these GUYS , i did . no one listens to sage . i shouldn't have followed you , you're right , because you would've been JUST fine , ❜ she all but hisses out , eyes flickering on HORIZON for any sense of assistance , but there's no one . just him . just her .
feels her HEART sink into her stomach , eyes drifting down to him . ( remember you have to try . REMEMBER . you have to try . ) ❛ okay , can you stand up ? i'm not ... i am not going to let you die without me chewing you out before you do . so , please , i need you to STAND UP so we can bring you inside . ❜
