Recap:

“Kaya?” I say, my voice even more shaky than before, as tears threaten to fall from my eyes.

“Thomas, what’s wrong?” Kaya asks, and I hear her get into a car.

“She’s not breathing. Skylar’s not breathing.”

Thomas" POV:

I can feel my heart rate continually increasing, and my breath is locked in my throat. My eyes are glued to Skylar’s pale face, lying sideways on the pillow. I’m motionless. This can’t be real. This can’t be happening. As my phone slowly slips from my now sweaty hands, I can hear Kaya on the other line yelling my name over and over.

“THOMAS!”

There is a sudden jolt as someone’s hand strikes my cheek. My eyes flutter open, and Skylar’s face is in front of mine. Her cheeks are tainted red and soaked with tears, and she is holding my face in her hands.

“Thomas, you scared the bloody daylights out of me! Don’t you ever do that again! Do you understand me?!” Skylar chokes out in between sobs, as she moves her hands around my shoulders and embraces me in a tight hug. I look around and notice that I had been lying on the floor for who-knows-how long. Skylar is kneeling beside me as she hugs me.

“What… What hap-…” I try to ask, but don’t know exactly how to. After a minute of rattled thoughts and confusion, I finally get a question out. “I scared you? What are you talking about?”

She removes her arms from around me before speaking. “I woke up because I heard someone screaming, and when I looked over, you were on the floor. You kept screaming my name over and over and you wouldn’t stop. I tried to wake you and, and… You stopped breathing! I- I panicked I didn’t know what else to do! I am so sorry if I hurt your cheek… What happened to you?!” Skylar yells, new tears now flowing down her already wet face.

“I- I don’t really know… I guess I fell asleep at some point. I was having a dream – well nightmare really… You- you were dead. I was on the phone with Kaya and I came in to wake you, but you weren’t breathing…“ I whisper as I look down at my lap, going through it all in my head as I try to recall exactly when I had passed out in the first place. I feel my eyes welling up with hot tears as the image of Skylar’s lifeless body returns to my mind.

I look up at her, meeting her gaze.

“I thought you were dead...” I whisper as I begin to cry. Skylar once again pulls me into a hug, only this time I return the gesture.

“I thought you were dead.” She laughs out at the irony, yet hugs me tighter as she does so.

A/N: Ok. Super short update, sorry.

I tried to add a little more, but every time I started typing it just didn't feel right, and before I knew it it was time for dinner, and I'm running out of computer time because I am limited each day.

The last chapter... Let's just put it this way: I GOT BORED. Haha I was working on the story in the car and thought it would be funny if I pretended to kill someone. 

Then my mom told me that there was an old TV show that ended a season with someone getting shot and you didn't find out that it was a dream for several months. 

So hey, at least I'm not THAT mean. 

Anyway, hope you like it! 

See ya dearies!
