Olivia's Pov
"Oh my god...Oliver, he's still in there!"

"You'll die if you go in there,"

"I don't care Oliver's in there, my brother!"

"No, Olivia, don't go in!"

"No!" "He's still in there!"

"Olivia, he's gone."

Opening my eyes, tears pour out. Sitting up as I clutch my chest, my breathing gets heavier, making it difficult to breathe. I try to calm myself but it's no use.

Hearing a noise, I jump at the sound. Turning my head to see Lexy at my window.

She waves with a smile and I get up. Wiping my tears away as I open up the window.

"Lexy?" I ask, wondering why she came. "Hey," She said as I grabbed her hand helping her climb in. "What are you doing here?" I asked as my breathing still hadn't calmed and was trying my best to push down the tears that so badly wanted to pour down my face.

"I was-" She paused, examining my now red and puffy eyes.

"Liv, are you okay? You look like you're-" She starts but I interrupt her. "I'm fine," I say sitting back down on my bed.

"No, your not," She says sitting next to me. "I am," I say trying to smile but I can't stop a tear from slipping out. "Oliv-" She talks but he cut her off again while wiping away the tear that slipped.

"It was just a stupid nightmare, it's fine, I'm fine," I say as another tear slips out and at that point, I could lie anymore. It was like all my emotions were spilling out right in front of my crush.

"I'm fine, I don't know why I'm crying," I say shaking my head and wiping away the tears with my sleeve.

"You're obviously not okay, Liv-" She talks but I interrupt her again.

"No, no, I said I'm fine. I just need to take my pills. They help me feel better," I say as I shakily reach for my drawer handle, opening it I grab my pill bottle. Opening the pill bottle I accidentally drop it, the pills scattering on the floor.

"Shit," I curse as I drop to the floor, picking up pills and putting them back into the pill bottle as tears recklessly stream down my face.

"Liv...Liv, stop it," Lexy says getting up and walking to me but I ignore her, quickly pushing my hair behind my ear and going back to pick up the fallen pills.

"Olivia!" She shouts my name as she grabs my wrists to stop me from making any other movements.

My lips start to tremble as I sob loudly. "Olivia, you can tell me about it. I'm here for you...okay?" She says and I nod my head, not daring to look up at her.

We both slowly get up from the floor as she holds me as I was too numb to walk alone.

"Now, tell me...what's going on?" She says and I bite my lip, still keeping my head down. "I always have this nightmare... of the fire, it won't go away," I say as my eyes start to hurt from all the tears continuously falling down my face.

"Every time I close my eyes, I see him. And he's angry at me...he yells at me. He says that "it's all my fault" "I was too selfish to help my dying brother" "it should have been me instead of him" and honestly, I'm starting to believe it. Why should I be alive?! Why couldn't I be the one who died that night?! It's not fair! Nothing is fair anymore and I'm so fucking tired of it-!" I shout but Lexy places her hands on each side of my cheeks, forcing me to look up at her.

"Olivia, please, stop this. It's not your fault and it will never be your fault, okay? Oliver was killed by Chucky and you had no control over it!" She says as she wipes away tears with her thumb.
