He didn’t want it to be this way.. No.. holding his best friends bleeding body in his arms.. He couldn’t believe this was really happening. He shook Simon, begging and screaming for him to stay alive. ‘My wife..’ He stared at Simon not understanding. ‘Johnny.’ Simon grumbled as he grabbed onto him. ‘Take care of my wife.. you’re the only one who can. I can’t die knowing she’ll be with someone random.. Id rather it be you..’
Johnny paused as he listened to those words. He didn’t expect that. He didn’t expect that at all.. Simon telling him to care and.. be with his wife?! He couldn’t do that to his best friend.. could he..?
He dreaded this. He didn’t want to be here with Price. He hated that he had to deliver the news. He knocked on the door, and the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen greeted him with a smile before it dropped. His heart broke as he gripped onto Simons dog tags, and ring. As he looked down he didn’t expect to see her pregnant. Just a few months, still barely noticeable. Protective instinct overwhelmed him as he looked at his best friends wife. She’s expecting, and he’s going to protect her at all costs.
He’s over at the house, making soup, as she was laying on the couch, sick with a fever, and nausea. He took leave to take care of her. He heart ached as she groaned, and coughed harshly. ‘Almost done lassie..’ he said as walked over, changing out the rag on her forehead with a fresh cold one.
