"I was about to ask you the same thing," she whispered and snuggled in closer to him, listening to his heartbeat. She reached up to stroke his cheek and felt the wetness of a tear. She pulled away from him just a little and leaned back on her elbow. "Leon? What's going on? What's wrong?" she asked, panic rising in her chest. Her stomach dropped to her feet as she stared at his face.
This was the end, she realized. Well not the end but he was going. He had to leave her soon. Her eyes blurred as Jo reached up and hugged him tight, not wanting to ever let go. She wanted to beg and plea, but she knew that she had no choice, neither did he. He would continue his job up there and she would continue hers down here, alone. Both wishing for the others. She wished that she could wish for him to stay with her, but she knew that he could never grant that wish. no one could.
Placing her head back on his chest, she wanted to make the most of tonight, because she had no clue when she would be seeing him again. "Leon," she whispered, her voice cracked. She was unable to hide the pain from her voice. She wished that she could go with him, but again it was another wish unable to ever be granted.
Jo looked up into his eyes and touched her lips to his once more. She could stay up all night and kiss him and just stare into his eyes, memorizing the lines of his face. "My little lion," she whispered to him with a small smile on her face.
