Prompt 20- Writer’s Choice (Near Death)
It had been an accident.
Just some stupid accident. Then he remembered the ambulance and the blood. Oh god, he remembered the blood. Coppery and sweet and so very familiar. For the first time, the smell of blood made him sick. He sat there, in the emergency waiting room, blood still coating his hands. Kim knew he had to look paler than he usually did. Tasha set right beside him, not looking any better than himself.
But none of that mattered.
Because right through those double doors lay Robbie. And no one knew whether the human would live or die.
They didn’t have to wait very long. Too soon, Flynn returned to the room and just shook his head. Cold seized his chest, numbness setting in.
He told them they didn’t have much time left. Robbie wouldn’t survive the night. They gave each person their chance to say goodbye alone.
Robbie looked so broken, just laying there. They had bandaged him up well but it still made him sick. Pulling up a chair, he sat at the bedside. The hand was lip as he grasped it.
“I’m sorry, Robbie.” Kim reached out and brushed hair from the human’s face. “I should have protected you.” Shifting forward, he pressed his face into the brown hair. Robbie’s normal scent had grown fainter and had a gained a bitter edge, death already taking its hold. “It’s all my fault.”
He blinked back tears before he shook his head. “But I won’t let you die.” Kim pressed his teeth into his wrist, breaking skin. Pressing it down against Robbie’s mouth, the vampire forced him to swallow. Robbie’s form began to show more life than it had before, pressing up slightly. He leaned down and pressed his lips to the human’s forehead.
“I’m so sorry.”
