Airy opened his eyes, looking around. He wasn’t underwater anymore. He sat up and saw Liam sobbing next to him.
“I… Wh… No!” He yelled out, trying to stand, “I- I can’t die now!” He looked over at Airy, before standing and pulling him to the radio. Airy yelped slightly as Liam pulled him, stumbling as Liam let go and grabbed the radio and started turning the knob.
“We gotta go back!” He grabbed Airy again, flicking the antenna.
Liam yelped as he felt himself and Airy get flung into the sky. Liam looked around, as he tightened his grip on Airy, causing Airy to wince slightly, as he tried to get Liam to move his hand. As they fell, Airy shut his eyes and grabbed onto Liam’s arms, as they gained speed until…
Airy smashed as he hit the ground, while Liam fell onto the glass, wincing as he tried to get up, before slipping and hitting himself on the ground once more. He felt panic rising as he felt his consciousness fade in and out. He… needed to get back to the room-
Liam scowled as he flipped through the stations, Airy stared as Liam progressively got angrier and angrier.
“Why did I have to lose the notes…” He felt tears coming to his eyes again. Airy stared as Liam began to sob.
Airy reached forward, hesitating before he brought his arms around Liam, causing the backpack to flinch.
“Wha… What’re you doing?” He asked. Airy shrugged, still feeling uncertain. He had no clue what he was meant to do. Liam gulped as he lifted the antenna. He shut his eyes, readjusting Airy’s arms so he wouldn’t have such a tight grip on him.
