My Last Breath (Prologue)

Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light
It ends here tonight

“Stay with me,” Clark whispered urgently, cradling her small, frail body in his arms as he knelt on the frozen Fortress ground.

“You’re okay,” she murmured, relief clear despite how strained her voice was.

“I’m gonna get you to a hospital.” He swallowed hard, a tear trickling down his cheek.

“They can’t help me.” She slowly opened her eyes and looked at him. “It’s okay, Clark.”

“No, it’s not,” he choked out, shaking his head.

A faint, but sad smile touched her lips. “I love you.” Despite how weak she was, despite how quickly what was left of her life force was draining from her, she managed to reach up and touch his cheek. Her hazel eyes glittered with tears. “It’s always been you, Clark.”

“Don’t leave me. Please,” he whispered, cradling her closer to him. “I need you.” Without thinking about it, he gently pressed his lips to hers.

Her eyes drifted shut and she kissed him back softly as she felt the world slowly slipping from her grasp. Her hand dropped away from his face and hung limply at her side.

“Chloe! No! Chloe! Wake up!” He shook her gently, pressed his ear against her heart. Sorrow unlike anything he’d ever felt before ripped through him. “NOOOOOOO!” he screamed, her lifeless body pressed against his chest.

And then the world went black.
