Cursing under his breath, Adrien swore he could feel the blood congealing in his heart. Ice-cold fingers wound themselves around his heart and would not let go. His heart only beat faster, a painful rhythm against his ribs.

Cold.
"No, god dammit, not now, we just began our life." She looked around and sneered "It's this place, this f***ing place!"

Adrien did not answer, merely clutched desperately at his chest. The darkness, it was engulfing him in its merciless embrace...
