Author's Notes: Written for drabbles100 on LJ. Prompt #78 Disease.
Summary: A side effect of working to close on a case.
I watched another victim hover on the edge.
They tried to be strong, many smiled when their loved ones would come to see them. Their loved ones brought tears to the bedside, tears they meant to hide, tears that escaped anyway.
A mother cried as she watched her daughter struggle to breathe, suffocating from the inside out.
The lovers broke you, they died apart, not able to give a goodbye kiss to the ones that loved most of all.
Looking into the bed next to me I smiled, Charlie’s curls a stark contrast on the pale pillow.
He was finally asleep.
I forced a brief and weak smile before turning and leaving the hospital.
