Chapter 72 By eBooksCat
Pain. That’s all I felt, slicing through my entire body like shockwaves. This wasn’t regular pain but excruciating. I wanted it to stop, I wanted it all to stop.
I hear voices, unfamiliar calling out to me. They tell me to stay with them but I feel myself slipping away. Pain. I was in too much pain. My heart hurts, my body feels numb. I can’t move.
I felt like I was floating, not on water but high above the sky. It felt like how I imagined a baby bird learning to fly for the first time.
Was I dying?
I couldn’t tell. If I was, why does it feel so peaceful? Why do I want to stay? Why aren’t I fighting to go back to my family? Had I had too much?
I could see nothing, plain, white, blank. Why is there nothing? Is this what they call the light? Heaven?
I feel it then. A powerful electric force on my chest. My heart tries, I feel it. My chest lifts, my eyes and mouth stay shut.
I want to scream, I want to tell them that they should leave me. I was in peace.
But was I really? I was alone, there was no Blake. No Arden, no mom or dad, no Ryan, Rosalie or Liam. There was no uncle Luke, Noel or aunt Rose. There was nothing. I was alone.
There it goes again another zap to my chest. It feels uncomfortable, like a magnet hitting metal. My chest
lifts again as I hear them speak. Angels? No it couldn’t be.
Perhaps I wasn’t really dead yet, I was in between. That’s when I hear him as I succumb to the feeling of loneliness. His voice, the one I love, Blake, he was there.
You better fight for us Ley.
I’m not leaving you.
Come back to us Ley, come back to me.
I need you. We need you.
I love you.
