River POV

4 guys looked down upon me.  I was thinking in my mind, Why didn't they just let me jump? "Why didn't you let me jump?" I asked them. "Because I couldn't just let someone do that." The guy with fluffy brown hair stated. "Why would you care your just a stranger." I say. "Well lets not be strangers then." The guy with a British accent says while his friend had his arm around him . " Fine then. My name is River Sylvatica." , I say sticking out my hands for each of them to shake.  They shook my hand then each of the interduce themselves. I learned the boy with light brown fluffy hair was Karl. Then there was Clay who had his arm around George. Then there was a boy with shorter brown hair named Nick. 

After they interduce themselves, I sat back down on the concrete rail facing out to the addictive sparkle of the water. They sat next to me. Nick was siting next to me and Karl was sitting on the other side of me. Clay and George just sat on the rail near us with a concerned look on their faces. 

"Why were you trying to jump? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to." Karl says sitting next to me. "Its fine. My parents barely talk to me. They kicked me out on my 18th birthday. My only friend who was my Papa died and this was our favorite spot. He always wanted me to take over his convent store but when he died my parents sold it and I cant go back because the owners would try to give me the shop no cost, but I wont take it because it would be to much work. Now I'm stuck living in a one bedroom apartment in the busy traffic of Chicago. All alone." I say now with tears streaming down my face. 

Nick brought me into a comforting hug. I took out my watch that was on my wrist to see the time. It was nearly two in the morning. "What were you guys even doing out so late?" I ask them. " We decided to go to the park to just be kids again but we saw you and thought it was more important." Clay says from behind us. "You guys can go now. You don't have to worry about me." I say trying to get them to go away. "We will but first I want your phone number." Nick says. I gave him my phone number then I walked back home. I always had a pocket knife on me for safety. 

I walked into my small shitty apartment. I honestly wanted to get out of here but I didn't have enough money. I hated my apartment. I felt sick anytime I was here. I just felt wrong here.

I couldn't not question why the guys were there at that exact time. I always wondered what stopped me every time I went to that place. I just stopped and sat at my island table in the middle of this shit hole.  I then heard a noise from my phone. I opened it to see a text from  Nick. 

Nick

Hey River is this you?

River

Yes its me

Nick 

ok just making sure

River

well here I am


After I responded to his message I got ready for bed. I just changed cloths and brushed my teeth. I laid in my bed. I fell asleep quite easy considering I have insomnia. 

My dreams were weird though. I sometimes had sleep paralysis, but this was completely different. I was not able to control what I was doing. I was walking into my Papa's convenient store. He was behind the counter. "River is that really you, he, he he told me if I acted like I was still alive I could contact you through your dream," He said walking out from behind the counter and giving me a huge comforting hug. They were his signature warm hugs. But oddly they felt a lot like Nick's hug.

"I saw what you were trying to do and those boys, I- I sent them. They are here to give you comfort because I don't know how often I can see you." He said with his typical stutter. "Papa why are you here?" I ask still confused. "I'm here to guide you, River. You have to wake up. You have to wake now."  Is all he said before I woke up.

"What the actual fuck just happened," I mumble under my breath.
