His eyes shot open only to turn red cause of the gas, he started coughing and soon coughed up blood like me

"I think the gas is poison", I mumbled and he nodded, he grabbed my hand and made me cover my mouth with the sleeve of my red flannel

"Breathe into your sleeve and lay down on the ground", I nodded and did what he told me too. He did the same thing into the sleeve of his black trench coat. He faced me and I studied everything about the way he looked today. Most people would say he looked weird but to me he was hotter than ever. He wore sagged black jeans with tan combat boots and a dark side of the moon tee, and a black trench coat. As I looked into his eyes I knew the truth.

We were dying

"Did you miss me?", he asked (still breathing into his sleeve)

"Someone I once loved gave me a box of darkness, it took me a while before I realized this was a gift", I responded with instead of just a simple yes or no. I went to remove the sleeve from over my mouth so I could speak more clearly. Justin shook his head no as he noticed my movements

"Keep breathing into the sleeve princess", he said. I fought to keep my eyes open but they slowly closed and I couldn't get up the strength to open them. I couldn't see Justin, or the haze of the poison gas above us.

Everything was dark but I'm still alive...

"Hey Justin...you still awake?",

"Yeah", I hummed into my sleeve happy to know that he's still there

"I'm not afraid to die...but I am afraid to walk this world alone...Without you", I said

"Me too", he whispered before adding

"We gotta keep talking...", I couldn't muster up the strength to say anything anymore

"I remember the day you told me you were leaving...", he started

"I remember the makeup running down your face...", He paused for a whole and continued

"All the memories I couldn't escape, like the way I used to fall asleep next to you...",

"I actually drove to all the places we used to hang out and I'd get wasted...",

"Pictures of you still live on my phone",

"I even thought about our last kiss, how your lips were and how you tasted...",

"Are you fine cause...I'm not fine at all", he took pauses between every sentence and chuckled at the end. I found strength with his words and I opened my eyes, his grey eyes pierced through mine

"My favorite color is orange...like a sunset orange", I replied since I never got to before...

"My mom used to say that...angels made the sunset look so pretty", I said, he responded with a hum before he said something

"My mom told me that those who have marked wrists are angels...", he looked down at my arms then back into my eyes

"I'm not an angel...",

"Of course you are...my mom said only angels harm themselves because they don't like life on earth. This world is destroying them so they try to return to heaven again. They are too sensitive to the pain of others and there own...", I smirked under my sleeve

"Your moms smart", I replied

"Thanks she's an angel too", he finished. I pulled my sleeve off of my mouth and pulled myself onto my hands and knees, I crawled onto Justin's lap and pulled his sleeve away from his mouth, his eyes started into mine for a while before they started to fall down. His eyes closed an his body went limp...

I gave a sad smirk with a exhale, tears fell from my eyes onto his cheeks. I brushed them of his face with my thumb. I laid myself down on him, resting my head on his chest. Letting my eyes close. I thought I heard the door open.

And in that moment I knew we were truly in love

Our story ended like Romeo and Juliet...
