"Michael, put yourself together," Luke shook Michael's body softly trying to stop him from hyperventilating so much. He was still having that panic attack seeing Jack plus Calum who left the house so suddenly.

Ashton then told them all to go back to the room and grab everything they left there.

"Is Calum going to be alright?" Nick patted Ashton's shoulder.

"I hope he will," Ashton replied.
When they got their things again, they all walked outside and to the van.

"Calum hasn't come back yet," Joy said and suddenly Grace stepped out of the van to the pouring rain and went to look for Calum. Her friends yelled her name but the loud sound of the rain made their voices inaudible.

Calum was still crying and he thought running away from his friends probably could calm himself down for a bit. He was soaking wet from the rain even his tears looked invisible from the water that's dripping down his face too. The rain was heavy he couldn't even see what's happening with his surroundings.

He was trying to see what's in front of him but suddenly his steps stopped. His heart was racing too fast when he saw a very familiar tree. The tree he saw in his dream. The tree where he saw a body of a little kid that's not alive anymore sitting under it with his brown teddy on his lap. What's this? He turned around and somehow the rain wasn't that heavy anymore and slowly he could see what's behind him. The houses, with bodies and all that. What? How?

What's next? A bridge?

He walked backwards and suddenly his back hit something. He turned around and mouthed 'fuck' just after he realized he's standing right in front of an old bridge. The same exact bridge he saw in his dream.

The other thing he remembered about that dream was Amanda's appearance. Was she there? Standing on the other edge of the bridge?

No, she wasn't. Calum was alone there. He stepped forward slowly until he stood up on the bridge.

"Calum," he heard somebody said. He looked around but he didn't find anybody. He looked down and the river under the bridge looked scary.

"Jump," he heard again. He had goosebumps because that voice was so clear like somebody whispered it right to his ear.

"Jump," it repeated and Calum was now standing on the edge of the bridge getting ready to make himself fall.

"Jump," it kept on repeating and he couldn't stop crying.

"Jump, jump, jump," the voice was getting clearer.

"Stop, stop, stop!" he yelled.

Suddenly something pulled his left shoulder making him turned around and found someone standing behind him. Yes, Grace. He didn't know if he had to be happy that she's here or scared of what will happen next.

But why was this all just like his dream? But wait. Amanda wasn't behind Grace. That's the only thing that's different. No Amanda, at all.

"What the hell are you trying to do?!" she yelled and Calum could see her bloodshot eyes.

"I-I was--"

"You didn't think of jumping off the bridge right?" she interrupted.

"I have no choice, Grace," Calum said softly.

"What do you mean by that?" Grace said impatiently.

"I-I don't know, I-"

"You don't know?! It's stupid, Cal! Why would you even think of that?"

"Maybe because I fucking lost everyone, Grace!" he shouted suddenly and Grace stood still.

"First, my sister, then my parents, and then Amanda," he raised his voice and then ran his fingers through his hair frustratedly.
