DEDICATED TO JANEEN/JSCORPIO & ALL COL. WILLIAM TAVI-POO LOVERS...even though he's dead in this pic. <.<

"Spaulding was already standing there. He pulled back a bloodied sheet to reveal Tavington’s lifeless body.

Her hands flew to her mouth as she gasped. Then she let out a horrible scream and fell to her knees next to the cot.

'Oh, God No! William! Oh No!' she cried. Karen felt her world crash down around her and was aware of nothing else but William’s body. She buried her head on his chest and wept uncontrollably.

After a moment, she pulled back from him and looked at his face as she cried. ...

His eyes, which always stared intently and penetrated men’s souls, were now frozen over into an emotionless stare. His lips were parted slightly. His skin was smudged with gunpowder, dust, and dirt. Within the dirt on his face, tears had made clean little trails from the corners of both eyes down the side of his face into his hair, and down the front of his cheeks. This made her heartache so, for knowing that he had died alone on the battlefield was torment enough, but to see that he had wept as he died with no one to comfort him was too much.

Karen began to feel sick and weak all over. Her heart broke knowing that she had just missed him this morning. She felt a heavy guilt at not being with him to comfort him over Bordon’s death, and not being with him as he had died. He told her once that he wanted to die in her arms.

She pulled the sheet back farther to reveal his blood stained abdomen. ... She stroked his cheek, his skin feeling cool. ...

Karen reached down and drew his lifeless shape into her arms. She pulled his limp, heavy body up with much effort and held him against her. She kissed his cheek, and then the side of his head in his hair. She put her lips to his ear and she sobbed.

'Oh William, please don’t do this,' she whispered. 'You can’t go yet. You can’t!'

O’Hara motioned to Spaulding to step back and give her some privacy.

'William, I forgive you,” she murmured to the dead officer, “I want you back. I want us to be a family. Oh God, you can’t die, William! I'm pregnant.'"

OMG, utter sadness. A scene from one of my most favorite "Patriot" fanfics, The Boundary by JScorpio.

I had a random desire to draw this last night, so I've been working at it since then. I'm not very good at drawing faces accurately, so I heavily used these references: [link] [link] [link] ...

I am quite happy with this, and I hope you guys are, too!

...except I fooking hate backgrounds. >8(...ME NEED TUTORIALS, PLZ.

EDIT: Fixed her ear. :3
