Max winced. "Maybe we should stay away from each other completely," he said. "Even being friends might be too-"

Max stared down into her eyes for a long moment. "You're right." He slipped his arms around her, pulling her against him.
Liz leaned into the embrace, resting her cheek on his chest. Even if they were just friends, she could stay like this forever. Just holding Max, feeling his heart beat.

Max's arms dropped away from her. Liz watched, terrified, as his eyes rolled up into his head. He slumped to the ground.
"Max?" she cried. "Max!"
