*All chapters in Sophie's POV unless noted*

Breathe. Must breathe. I gasped and clamoured for air as the cold, salty tears ran into my open mouth. My head hurt, my eyes hurt, my lungs hurt. As the air re-entered my lungs I opened my eyes and the room was pitch black, I felt like I was spinning. The haunting images stayed in my head. The hospital beds, the smell was so vivid. His gravestone, Dan and I sat watching the sunset. I found my pillow in the darkness and cried into it. He's gone. He's left us. I'll never see him again. I heard my door open and someone come in. I knew it would be Dan since Phil's now dead. He scooped me up and cuddled me in his lap. I was still clinging too my pillow, it smelt of him. I opened my swollen and stinging eyes for a moment and caught a glance of the pattern on Dan's t-shirt. It was Phil's. I looked up at Dan and he smiled softly back at me.
"He's gone, why did he go" I cried.
"Who?"
"Phil!" I sobbed.
"Honey, Phil's still at the hospital" Dan said with a confused look on his face.
"What?" I asked suddenly also confused.
"You had a nightmare again, Phil's still in hospital recovering from his heart attack the other week" Dan said stroking my hair.
"Really? He isn't dead?" I asked feeling so much better.
"No he's fine, they're releasing him tomorrow" Dan said laughing at me.
"What time is it?" I asked. I felt like I was years ahead of where I am now. I felt like I must have been dreaming days.
"Half past 4" Dan said looking at my phone screen.
"Wow" I said, "that was too real"
"Yeah it sounded it" He said standing up and putting me on my bed, "Want some hot chocolate?"
"Sure, thanks" I  said laying down peacefully on my wet pillows.

That day we went to see Phil at the hospital, I was nervous when I stepped into the room in case I'd find him dying the was he was in my dream.
"Hey Sophie" He chirped as he saw me.
"Hi" I said going over and hugging him. He was alive, he was happy, he was okay.
"Dan texted me really early saying you had a bad dream?" He said, should've known Dan would tell him. I often had really bad dreams, i never really knew why. They just happened but nothing was as real and vivid as that one last night.
"Yeah, pretty scary to be honest" I said sitting beside him.
"Tell me about it"
"Well, i had a dream that we were with you and your life support had been turned off and you were dying in front of us. Then it was your funeral and everyone came and Dan and I sat with you as the sun went down at your grave and we were so unhappy and it was awful.
"Aw Sophie, don't you worry. I'm coming home today, it's all fine. I'm all fine" He said.
"Just never leave us please" I begged.
"I couldn't, I love you both too much" He said, we hugged and Dan entered the room. I left them to talk and sort out Phil's medicine with the doctor. These dreams were becoming worse and worse, why was i having them? What did they mean?

So there you go! Phil's not dead! People seemed really upset that I killed Phil off so I brought him back. Hope this book is supported as much as the others have been. Enjoy!!!
