Taylor's POV:
Me and Logan are walking in the forest during the phantom dimension. We're trying to figure out ways on how to get better weapons.
"What if we try and put weapons in the other dimension and leave them here?"
I spoke to Logan but I heard no response.
"Lo?"
I speak again and still no response. I look behind me and I quickly realize that I had gotten separated. I desperately try and find my way back to the others. As i'm on my way back I start to hear phantom noises, I stand still to try and track where it's coming from. I look behind me and see over 20 phantoms. I quickly start to feel adrenaline and begin to run.
"Shit.." I say under my breath, constantly looking behind me. As im looking behind me i tripped over a branch and fall.
"Fuck!" I try and get up but my ankle is swollen (it's giving aiden) and bruised. The phantoms quickly catch up as I try and crawl away. I let out a bloody murder scream as they catch up and pile up on me.
Ben's POV:
I hear Taylor scream as me and the group desperately try and find her. After a couple of minutes of searching we find a limp and bloody girl. I run up to her and move her hair out of the way as I quick recognize that it's Taylor. I panic and pick her up bridal style sprinting to the others.
"What the fuck! How ignorant does someone have to be to leave her alone in this dimension! I mean who does that shit!"
Tyler is yelling at everyone in the bus, but more importantly me. I panic as I try and stop the bleeding but nothing I do is stopping the gruesome red waterfall. Tyler keeps yelling at me as Aiden and Ashlyn try to calm him down. I haven't realized but my face was soaked with tears and sweat. I'm wheezing while trying to catch my breath. I shake as type on my phone and put on text-to-speech.
>> listen I didn't mean for her to get hurt can you guys just let me help her before she fucking dies?
The group looks at me as Tyler yells even more. "You should be grateful i'm not doing anything worse to you Ben. You're already in thin ice with me." Tyler spoke to me getting closer and closer to me before Aiden pushes him away. I feel movement in my arms as Taylor wakes up and hisses in pain. I'm both shocked and worried as i'm about to tell her to stay still we turn back into the human dimension.
I jolt up as my phone rings in the group chat.
"Get over here now! Taylor isn't waking up!" Tyler yells into the phone as I put on my shoes and run out the door. I see the ambulance parked outside i'm guessing Mrs. Hernandez had called the ambulance. I gasp for breaths as my eyes start to tear up.
I'm sitting in the waiting room next to Logan and Ashlyn. My mind is racing with so many different thoughts. How could I let that happen? Why wasn't I there? Why didn't I go with her? What if I got there sooner? Logan snaps me out of my thought trance as he tries to cheer me up.
"Don't worry about it too much Ben, she'll be okay" He said with a reassuring smile. After an hour of waiting with the group and our parents questioning us about what had happened. We swore we didn't know but they knew something was up. The nurses talked with Taylor and Tyler's parents on her condition, she was conscious. Her family entered first, after a few people went I felt guilty about seeing her but I was told she wanted to see me. I walked slowly to her room and pushed the door open softly as I see Taylor sitting in the hospital bed with many wires around her. I begin to walk slowly but picked up the pace. I hugged her tightly as I started to cry in her arms from the fear of loosing her. For the first time ever she had heard my voice and the first words I had let out were,
"I'm so sorry.." I said within choked cries.
She looked shocked before she spoke, "Why are you sorry? You didn't do anything wrong. I should've known better than leaving the group by myself." I pull away from the hug and kiss her.
Taylor's POV:
As Ben pulled away from the hug I catch him staring at my lips and back at my eyes as if he was examining my face features, before I could speak he pulled me into a kiss and I sat there in disbelief before I kissed him back. The kiss lasted a couple of seconds before we both pulled away to get air. I cup his face with my hands before I speak in a soft, gentle voice. "It's not your fault Ben, I promise this won't happen again" I say as a tear drips down his cheek, I dry it off with my thumb as I continue to tell him how it wasn't his fault and how grateful I am that he helped me.
"I'm sorry Taylor.."
"Don't be."
