BRIAN
"I am so sorry…"
"Please…do not apologize. I am the one that needs to thank you for looking after me"
I see her shaking her head and suddenly I see a tear running down her cheek as she closes my pants. Fuck. I know that she is hurting. She quickly wipes it away and I know that she does not want me to see it. I want to embrace her and comfort her but she would not want me to do that. Then Peter returns and says.
"We are a few miles away from the nearest form of life. I think the sooner we get to it the sooner we can get help. Brian, you up for it?"
"Yeah"
I try to get up but am soon struck down by pain.
"Fuck!!"
Lisa is by my side in an instant and to my surprise, Peter too. They help me sit back down but I try to get up again. Suddenly, I feel Lisa's hand on my shoulder, pushing me back down.
