Re: Sometimes I Think I'm Dying, but I'm Really Only Trying to Get Through

"My time's almost...up...isn't it?" Lorelai coughed out.

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 11:33 am

"You probably just caught something," Gabriel said. "Like you said, probably an infection thanks to having next to no immune system."

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 11:35 am

"Body can't fight it...though..." Lorelai said. "Won't make it... if I can't fight it."

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 11:43 am

"We'll find a way..." Gabriel said quietly, looking away.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 11:46 am

"Why do you get so upset by it?" Lorelai asked. "Patients die every day here, why're you so hell bent on me living?"

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 11:53 am

"You're still young," Gabriel said as an excuse. "...and no one should have to go through this."

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 11:56 am

"Girl down the hall was younger than me," said Lorelai. "She died last week."

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 11:59 am

"I know that..." Gabriel frowned.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 12:01 pm

"So why 'm I so special?" Lorelai asked. "Why're you fighting so hard for me?"

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 12:25 pm

"I..." Gabriel said quietly before starting again, deciding not to say why. "I'm not, I'm usually like this..."

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 12:27 pm

Lorelai shook her head. "What would you lie to a dyin' girl for?" she asked. "Your eyes say it all, Gabriel."

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 12:41 pm

Gabriel sighed. "That would be the reason why..." he mumbled, referring to the 'dying girl' part, closing his eyes.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 12:46 pm

"Y'know, I might actually want to fight this, if someone gave me a reason to," said Lorelai.

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 12:54 pm

"What about your family?" Gabriel asked.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 12:55 pm

Lorelai chuckled humorlessly. "When was the last time you saw anyone in here?"

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 12:59 pm

"Right..." Gabriel said, sighing.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 1:03 pm

Lorelai reached up to take Gabriel's hand. "Give me something to fight for, Gabriel?"

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 1:19 pm

Gabriel froze as she took his hand before slowly looking down at her, hesitating before nodding.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 1:25 pm

Lorelai frowned. "Gabe, what is it?"

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 1:26 pm

"I can give you something to fight for..." Gabriel said quietly after a minute. "...if that's what you want."

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 1:28 pm

"You seemed hesitant though..." said Lorelai. "Is this not what you want?"

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 1:37 pm

"It is..." Gabriel said. "...but you're a patient..."

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 1:40 pm

"No one has to know, Gabriel," said Lorelai.

by **Gabriel Lewis** Mon May 14, 2012 1:55 pm

"True..." Gabriel said slowly, still looking unsure.

by **Lorelai Larson** Mon May 14, 2012 1:56 pm

"Gabriel," Lorelai sighed. "I need something, or I won't make it."
