You were at the beach with your boyfriend, Harry. You have wetsuits on and have your surfboards in hand.

"Ready?" Harry asked.

You looked at him and nodded. “Ready.”

The two of you ran out into the water, placed your boards on the surface, and started paddling out. You paddled out pretty far. You saw a big wave starting to form, so you get ready to ride it. You glance back at the wave.

The wave was too big! It was coming down and ready to crash.

You looked at Harry, who had a worried look on his face.

The wave crashed and you go under water. You struggled through the pull of the water to get to the surface. You finally reached the surface and looked around. You saw your board, but not Harry or his board. You paddled to your board and hung on to it to stay above the surface.

"Harry?" you called.

No answer.

You looked around, starting to panic. You couldn’t find Harry.

"HARRY?" you shouted.

Still no answer. You quickly got on your board and paddled to shore. You ran up to the lifeguard and told him that Harry was missing. The lifeguard ran off. You looked into the ocean, hoping to see any sign of Harry. You heard a helicopter overhead. You looked up to see it flying out over the water. You saw speed boats and jet skis going into the water,

"Oh, God," you muttered. This can’t be good, you thought.

You saw a dock in the distance. You ran over to it. You ran up the stairs, and down to the edge of the dock. You looked around the water, looking for Harry. You could feel the sting of tears building in your eyes.

"Harry, where are you?" you asked yourself.

You heard a speed boat coming closer. You looked to see it flying into the shore. A jolt of hope rushed through you. You ran down the dock, down the stairs, and toward where the boat came onto the shore. You saw an ambulance sitting next to a group of medics all huddled around in a circle on the ground.

"Harry?" you called.

One of the medics turned to you. You peered over the medic’s shoulder and caught a glimpse of Harry. His eyes were closed. You felt tears building in your eyes again. You bit your lip and covered your mouth with your hand.

"Do you know this boy?" the medic asked.

You nodded your head.

"Ma’am, he’s unconscious," the medic informed. "We’re gonna take him to the hospital."

You swallowed back the tears. “May I come with him?” you asked.

The medic turned around and looked at Harry. He turned back around and looked at you. He nodded his head.

"Thank you," you praised.

They put Harry on a stretcher and loaded him into the ambulance. A medic helped you into the ambulance as other medics piled in. They shut the doors and the sirens sounded. You felt the ambulance pull away. You watched Harry, not moving. You reached for his hand. You wrap your hand around his and gently run your thumb against his.

"Oh, Harry," you muttered. "I’m so sorry."

The ambulance came to a stop and the doors opened. Medics pulled the stretcher out and rushed Harry into the hospital. You ran in after them, but a nurse ran in front of you once inside.

"I’m sorry, but you have to stay here," she said.

You stood on your toes and look over the nurse. You watched the medics and doctors swarm around Harry on the stretcher.
