Chapter Text
Sole Survivor in Nick Valentine’s arms, their mortal body shaking uncontrollably because of the pain after too much radiation poisoning and other severe damages received that fateful evening in the rain.
Nick clutching into them, whispering “No please don’t go, our case isn’t closed yet,” But unable to cry because, he doesn’t have blood nor tears, but the rain from the sky is doing a pretty good job filling in. The sole survivor smiling up at him one last time, the rain dripping from Nick’s face onto theirs, and with their final breath they say “Thanks Nick, for supporting me all through this, I guess it’s time for you to head home huh?”. Their shaking body then becomes limp and Nick can literally see the life go out of the Sole Survivors eyes.
Nick clutching even harder into the body, cradling it while whispering “come back, come back, come back..”, but the Sole Survivor doesn’t come back, it is game over. Their case will go unfinished and Nick Valentine is left alone in the wastes, his only purpose now, to go back home.
His soaked face is scrunched up as far as a synth can scrunch their face, his expression painful as he looks up into the sky, into the rain and with a painful cry he screams “Don’t leave me behind!”.
