Promise Me Something

TWENTY FIVE

***Liv's P.O.V.***

Sleep didn't come easily. People knocked on my door but I stayed silent and ignored them. Knowing sleep was distant I gave up and sat up.

Someone knocked on the door. "What?" I croaked. The door handle twisted and in walked Eboni. She had a sad look on her face and tears gleaming in her eyes.

"Umm...Are you...Alright? No, of course you're not alright. Umm...Do you need...Something? Umm..." She stuttered.

"I'm sorry about your brother." I said.

"Huh? Why?" She asks.

"He said his last words to me, about me. I shoved you and Trevor out of the way and hugged him until he died. He's your brother. He also died because of me." I answer. Eboni didn't say anything. She just bit her lip and backed out of my room, closing the door behind her.

I put my face in my hands, instantly regretting what I had said.

The door handle turned once more and Eboni walked back in.

"You don't get it do you?" She looked straight at me.

"Get what?" I said, slightly taken aback.

"All of the boys, right before they died they said the same thing to you." She tells me.

"Yea, I know. They said some weird love quote that's from Grey's Anatomy or something." I roll my eyes.

"Well maybe if you'd wake up you understand what they meant." I felt my eyes widen and my pupils dilate. Eboni's words kept repeating in my head until it got too much. I felt myself leave my body and felt my eyes roll back and my thoughts not making sense as I blacked out.
