NOW PLAYING: Now It's Coming Back
By Duster

♫ Remember to feel your hand
And what it's like to say your name
And now it's coming back
The sense of things
Mid-July
In my mother's house
We knew each other
And now times goes by so fast
Things change all the time
Everyone knows it's good to be so close ♫

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥  HE FELT like he was drowning. Water engulfed his lungs in one single go making him scratch at his throat trying to catch a breath of air. Evin swung his hands around wildly trying to reach out to grab something, anything but nothing was there. He was dying, he was going to die.

The water around his lungs ran up the teens throat making him gag. Evin was gasping for air, spinning around frantically trying to spot someone who could help but he was alone. No Mila, no Connor, no one at all. Evin took in one last harsh breath in before he could know no longer breath. The water had taken him in as their own.

Evin shot up his hands instantly going to his throat feeling a somewhat burning sensation rising up in him. He placed one hand over his heavily beating heart trying to calm down from the dream. It felt so real, too real. Evin looked around the small room he was in, not recognising any of it. That was until his gaze landed on a very familiar hat he gifted to a friend before this whole thing happened. Before the world went to shit.

Just then the door creaked open and in walked a tall yet lean figure with fluffy blond hair. The boy placed a bowl of cereal next to Evin and a small plastic bottle of water beside the bowl. "How you feeling Evin?" With a loud heart the boy in question slowly looked up at the teen. He already knew who this boy was even before he looked up but he just had to make sure. Evin had to make sure that this was-
"Connor?" He whispered.

"Nice to see you too, man" the blond laughed before punching the others shoulder lightly. Evin winced. Okay, when did Connor get so fit? Evin looked around the room trying to spot his sister. Did she make it? Was she dead? Oh god, what if she was dead? Evin started to forget how to breathe properly as he shot up from his spot on the floor. "Whoa man, calm your tits" Connor placed both his hands on the shorter one's shoulders trying to calm him down.

"Mila, where is she?" Evin panicked wiping his head around in all directions trying to find his lost sister. A soft chuckle emitted from the blonde lips as he shook his head fondly. Evin turned his stress-filled head up towards the other. How on earth could he be laughing at a time like this? Mila is missing for crying out loud. His sister was missing.

"Evin?" The boy in question turned around to face the noise. There stood his little sister with a bandage wrapped tightly around her ankle. He could practically feel his hear leap out of his chest at the sight of her. Without any thought in mind Evin rushed over to Mila and engulfed her into one of the tightest hugs he's ever given her.

Evin could feel his heart beating rapidly in his chest as he held Mila tightly against his chest. He buried his head in the crook of her neck as he held her tightly, afraid she would just disappear. Evin felt the need to cry, he thought he lost her. Though he lost the one person he had left in his life. He didn't want to but tears started to fall from his eyes. Words couldn't explain how thankful he is to be hugging Mila right now. He thought he lost her.
