For You I Hold My Breath Novels & Stories

Everyone holds their breath. “Nothing! Carter, give me a dose of adrenaline!” The medic, Carter, immediately rummages through his bag. As this happens, I kneel down and take a moment to breathe. I’m confused by what’s happening to me. My chest tightens with pain, but it’s not unbearable.

"You can't kill me. You can't kill me." "I'm not gonna die. I'm not gonna die." Breathe in one two three four five Breathe out one two three four five Breathe in one two three four five Breathe out one two three four five Breathe in one two three four five Breathe out one two three four five

His voice touched her soul as the tears of joy started streaming out of her eyes. THAT YOU ARE THE REASON, I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT NO MORE, I DON'T WANT TO HIDE NO MORE, I DON'T WANT TO CRY NO MORE, COME BACK. I NEED YOU TO HOLD ME. (YOU ARE THE REASON) A LITTLE CLOSER NOW, JUST A LITTLE CLOSER NOW, COME A LITTLE CLOSER, I NEED YOU TO HOLD ME TONIGHT. I'D CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN,

I can barely breathe, panting and gasping hard, choking on my tears in my furious rigidity as I strain my limbs to keep him at bay “Please stop, look at me…. We’re not back in Illinois. Sophie, were in Manhattan, you’re in my apartment, baby. You’re safe…. Breathe, slow and steady, breathe with me; listen to me.

The surprise of it, the surprise of him, the surprise of this makes me hesitate, makes me hold my breath, makes me wait.

I wanted to know who I was without you, and I found out that I'm nothing, that you were and still are the reason I breathe.

Calista fell asleep while listening to Rhino. After singing, Rhino called Calista. But he did not get her response. He again called Calista slowly. Rhino murmured, "Calista, are you there?" Rhino didn't get any response this time either but he heard Calista's breathing. He realized that Calista was asleep by the sound of Calista's heavy breathing. Rhino breathed a sigh of relief.

I hold her just as tight. “That’s it. Let it all out,” she sings to me, rocking with me. “It’s only when it’s out that you will be able to truly breathe.”

The sound kept growing. And suddenly I realized I was holding my breath without meaning to. Who was coming for me?

The pup is going to…”
