Caleb pov

I'm running through the hospital halls. Trying to find her room. The hall never ends.
"Caleb!"
"Caleb help me. I need you!" Her voice echoes through the halls.
"Evelyn! I'm coming. Wait!" I yell.
"I can't do it anymore. Caleb! Why are they doing this to me. I wanna leave!" Her voice screams and bounced off the wall
"Because they want to help you heal. Because they love you... Because I love you" I scream.
"Caleb help me!" Her sickly voice says one last time.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

I walk up and gasp for air. I feel the sweat on my forehead. My shirtless chest is covered in a layer of sweat. My breath trembles. My heart beats fast. I close my eyes for a minute to calm down. Heat still fills my body. Like fire.

"Caleb! Time to get up. Bus will b here in 45 minutes. I'm leaving in 30." My mom yells.

"O-ok." I say still trying to breath.

"And I was thinking-" her heels click against the wooden floor.

"-that maybe after school and when I get home from work we could may-" she walks into my room.

"Maybe go see Evelyn" she says slowly getting quieter when she gets closer.

"Caleb what's wrong" she says. Her eyes widen in panic.

"Evelyn, needed, me and    I-I couldn't h-help her" I say. Still calming down.

"Ooh honey" she says leaning into me. Her arms go around my body. Tears fill In my eyes.

"She's gonna be okay" my mom tells me. Looking me in the eyes. She hugs me. And I hug back. I bury my head into her neck. I feel a tear, an actual tear slip down my cheek.
She pulls away

"Do you need to take a sick day?" She asks. Brushing the sweaty hair from my forehead. I nod.

"Ye-eah." I say. She nods and stands up to call the school. I take my blanket and wipe away my tears. You can't cry. You need to be tough. Tough like Evelyn tough like mom tough like dad. And, tough like...Cody, well tough like Cody was. You haven't cried since then. Since the day the call came to us with the information saying Cody was MIA in war.

My mom walks back into my room.

"Okay. School is called, I'm staying home from the set. And we can go see Evelyn if you want" she says. I nod. I begin to sit up to get dressed. My moms gentle hand pushes me to lay back down.

"Not now. It's 6:00am. She's  not awake. And they aren't putting her into her coma until later tonight. Go back to sleep for awhile longer and we can go after lunch." She says pulling my blanket up to my chin.

"Thanks mom. " I say quietly. She leaves and I fall asleep once again.

"What do you mean a medically induced coma!" I yell.

"So she can heal. She's gonna be ok" my mom comforts me. I nod.

I'm slowly healing. My cast is taken off tomorrow and I should be able to be back on set within the next week or so. Evelyn. Well Evelyn might not be back on set.

I really hope Evelyn realizes how much everyone is worried about her.

Especially Caleb. He's going through a lot. First his parents divorce, then his brother joins the army to help pay for everything. Now he's MIA and Nicole is pretty positive he's not coming home. Now this happens.

Things were so much better a year ago.
