Lost Without You

Chapter 4

Cathy's POV

It's all black, but I'm in a room. I was alone and scared. I heard voices unlike my own, they sounded like...Elliot, Jean and Leo. It's like they're trying to tell me to live. I have no idea what they are saying, I'm as alive as can be.

Cathy, I need you. Said a voice like Elliot's.

Please Cathy....don't die. It was Jean this time. Why am I hearing these voices?

I'm trying to stay strong, but I can't...you have to come back. Leo's voice echoed through the room.

I backed away into a corner. What were they talking about? I'm awake, I'm not dead. What is going on?

I see a picture on the wall, but it seems to be moving, like a movie. I saw Elliot, he was crying and yelling.

The picture changed to Leo, she was looking at old pictures of us half laughing half crying.

Then Jean, her hands were in her face and Max was comforting her, but she wasn't taking the comfort so well.

My dad showed up, he was cooking dinner for Denny. Denny started to cry and dad held it in, possibly to look strong. But he broke down as well.

Where am I? I feel completely normal, not dead. Or maybe I'm not dead. Am I sleeping?

Cathy. Please breathe for me. Breathe.

I start to panic. Breathe? What does that mean? I'm breathing heavily now.

Somebody get the machine! We're losing her!

Elliot...
