The Wave

Chapter 7

I was floating down a quiet stream. The birds chirped and butterflies flew around in the blue sky. White clouds dotted the sky with the occasional bird swooping down to catch a worm. 

Where am I? I wondered. 

"Charlotte! Charlotte! Oh my god. Oh my god! Please don't be dead please don't be dead!" I heard a voice plea. 

Don't worry! I'm not dead. I just like it better here. 

Small weeps filled my head from who ever was talking next to me. I wanted to comfort them. 

Shh it's ok! I'm fine! 

My world started to go hazy. Things blurred out and turned black. 

No! No please! Come back!

I was suddenly surrounded by blackness. I panicked! I tried to swing my arms and legs. Testing to see if I was underwater. I kept doing this until...

"OW! Mother of God Charlotte! Oh thank the Lord you are ok!" 

I opened my eyes to see Liam peering over me. My heart sank a little. I didn't want to be here. I wanted to be in my world, not here. 

"Liam...." I couldn't find the words. 

"Shh Charlie it's ok! I'm here! The wave is gone and it looks like they've stopped coming." 

Wearily, I sat up. My head was pounding, my side was still losing blood making me feel light headed, and I was so thirsty and achy. 

Liam didn't look any better. He lost his shirt, leaving his scrapped chest bare. His leg had a gash in it right under the knee and his arms were scrapped and bleeding. 

I felt blood coming down from my forehead and decided to lay back down again. I sat back in the pile of rubble we where stranded on and started to cry. Liam pulled me close and cried too. We huddled like this until I heard something. 

"Liam...Liam listen." I whispered. 

We sat in silence, waiting. Then I heard it again. 

"Hello? Is anyone out here! Hello?" 

Liam hopped up and gave me a stern look. "You need to stay here, ok? Do. Not. Move. I will be right back!" 

I propped myself up on my throbbing elbows and watched him start yelling and running toward help. 

We're saved! Help is here we're saved! I smiled and thought to myself. 

Then I remembered Abby, Harry, and Niall. Oh my God. 

Sitting is not going to help them. 

I slowly got to my feet only to fall down the pile of trash and into the brown water. Gross. 

My moto right now is 'slow and steady wins the race' so I hop from heap to heap trying to keep my balance. 

I'm coming guys, hold on! I'm coming! 

Ok this is not my favorite chapter but it's kinda like that in between moment that you need so you can  move on to more important topics. *WHICH ARE SOON TO COME* :)
