I ran out my front door to see flames everywhere.

I had no clue where I was coming from at first until I noticed a weird shape in the huge fire.

Matt's car had gone up in flames.

"Matt!" I screamed and ran towards the car.

The door to the drivers seat was covered in flames so I had to find a different way to get in.

I ran around the car looking for something to get in through.

I found a way to creep into the passengers door and grab Matt.

I grabbed Matt's arm and tried to pull him out but it didn't work.

The fire was spreading quickly so I got in the car and picked up Matt.

Matt was way heavier than I had expected.

"C'mon Matt! Please!" I pleaded.

After I got him out of the seat I carried him bridal style to get him away from the fire.

I grunted and moaned at all the hard work but eventually got him far enough away.

"Matt! Baby talk to me!" I cried.

"I-I need to call an ambulance." I mumbled feeling for my phone.

Then I remembered that I left it in my room.

"Shit." I screamed.

I checked Matt's pulse, it was getting slower.

Just then Matt's car finally exploded.

I cried and kept trying to get Matt to wake back up.

I kept shaking him and screaming his name hoping for a response.

"Please!" I was about to pull my hair out.

I felt his pulse and I felt nothing.

My stomach dropped.

I can't watch another friend of mine die.

I just cant.

"Matt." I put my head down on his chest like when we cuddled and laid there, listening to nothing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up as an ambulance grabbed Matt to take him to the hospital.

"Please save him." I sobbed to the nurse.

"We can't promise anything dear." She smiled. "But we'll try our hardest."

"Thank you." I tried to smile, but it didn't really work.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was sitting on the couch of my comfy home in New York City, the news was about to come on.

I heard the front door of the apartment open and Sammy walked inside.

"Hey babe." He smiled and kissed me.

"Hello. How was work?" I asked.

"Pretty good." Was all he said.

Just then the news flashed on the screen.

"Good evening everyone." The announcer said.

"Tonight we have a heart warming story. After 6 years of being in a coma a boy finally wakes up. Casy will report this story from Los Angles, California."

The TV changed settings and they were in front of a hospital.

"Today Matthew Espinosa woke up from his six year coma." Casy started.

My mouth dropped open and as I looked at the screen and saw a picture of Matt appear.

"The first words he said were 'Skyler! Baby I'm okay.'" Casy reported.

My eyes started to tear up and I almost started to cry.

"He was shocked to know that he had been in a coma for six years, and that his girlfriend of one year had left him."

Matt appeared on the screen again, except instead of a picture it was a video.

He was crying.

"I can't believe she left, she's gone. I miss her so much. Skyler if your watching this just know I love you and I always will." He sniffled and the camera cut off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After I left Matt I had gotten into photography.

My boss Grace called me in early so we could have a meeting. This could be good or bad news.

"Skyler." She smiled. "Come on in."

I sat down and Grace started to speak again.

"One of the photographers in Los Angles wants you to do a photo shoot with him!"

"Are you serious?" I asked excitedly.

"Yes! He wants to meet with you asap. In two days to be exact. So you should start packing for your trip!" She smiled and handed me a plane ticket.

"Thank you." I smiled and left the room.

I was going to go back to LA. Honestly I really do miss it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Good evening beautiful." Sammy smiled as he walked into the kitchen.

He hugged me from behind and lightly kissed my neck.

"Hey Sammy. You'll never guess what happened today." I smiled.

"What? Tell me Skyler."

I told him about the photographer and that I'm going to LA.

"That's amazing Skyler!" Sammy smiled picked me up.

He placed a kiss on my lips and set me back down.

I turned around to grab food out of the fridge and heard Sammy mumble something.

"What was that?" I asked turning around.

He looked up at me like he was worried.

"What about Matt?" He asked.

"What about him?" I replied.

"What if you fall in love with him again?" Sammy's jaw clenched.

"I won't fall in love with him, Sammy. For all I know I might not even see him." I reassured him.

"Promise?" He asked.

"Promise." I smiled.

"Ehh I'm too lazy to cook lets just order pizza." I said throwing all the stuff I had out back in the fridge and grabbing my phone.
