☆☄✪ for these gross children.
Getting them something they need before they ask for it. Leaning your head on their shoulder while they talk. Rubbing their back after a stressful day or disappointment.
Sirens are supposed to get louder as they get closer, to alert everyone that they're coming. She does not notice. The one time that the stupid cow should panic and cry, I-pin later realizes, he doesn't. The bullet pierced his heart, and he lays there, in I-pin's arms, calm and still and so quiet. Both eyes are open, looking up at her, but she can tell he's already leaving this earth. I-pin leans forward, I-pin pulls him closer. Her head rests on his shoulder as she struggles for air herself, like a child trying not to cry. No sound can come out of her that reflects this heartbreak. He's getting so cold, and she knows he'll need the warmth to stay comfortable.
Bystanders circle around them, confused shouts and stuttering demands to the paramedics to arrive quickly surrounds them both.She does not notice. His lips move, a soft 'Sorry' slips out in the air. Bloodied fingernails dig into Lambo's back. If this were earlier in the day, when she gave him a hug for settling for a simple cake sold at the bakery, he would break the embrace and go for 'a pinch to grow an inch.' But that moment is GONE and I-pin shakes her head, they were just at the restaurant enjoying her birthday dinner and he was so WARM not like the corpse before her and she hunts through her memories for ANY moment where they were unsafe and she can't find it.
The paramedics arrive and separate the two, both lifeless, both eyes reflecting nothing.
