Description
[Entry for The Crying Game contest] It's cold, bitter and dark outside; much like how Aspen Whitmore felt after being thrown out of his own house. Storming past the dimly lit streets at a frightful speed, he sees a girl hunched over by the side of the pavement. Athena Hadley was having trouble breathing. Falling headfirst into what we would deem "love at first sight", Aspen rushes to help her, but to no avail. So, carrying her to the hospital, they find out she has a collapsed lung. And if she doesn't receive one immediately... well let's just say she won't make it. What can Aspen do for the innocent girl that he had undoubtedly fallen for? Will he end up mourning her? Or will he risk everything for her? Read to find out in this heartbreaking one shot. A story about the power of love at first sight, and the ultimate weakness that it brings about.
