Sqaisheys POV

I was still recording when I grabbed a few towels from the bathroom,
"Clumsy cat!" I said, feeling awkward with the camera,
"Beth!" He called, shit, something is wrong when he calls me by my real name in a video.
"Joe?!" I called, leaving the camera is the room and running upstairs with towels.
"Beth where are you?!" I saw him in the pool, stretching his arms out.
He can't see, and he's in a pool. Shit! I need help!

"Joe I'm coming!" I yelled,
"Help!" He said, falling in the freezing pool,
No, can't let him drown.
He was all underwater now. He didn't move.
I jumped in to the pool, grabbed his hand and pulled him to me. I went into the pool and lifted him out and called an ambulance.

Stampys POV

I was in the hospital... Beth lay on the hospital bed, so pale, so perfect.
"Meet me in bed." Her neck was covered in blood her eyes were blood shot. Then, she died. I watched her body get dragged away, I watched her loving self being covered up and heaved into a coffin.

I hard thumping on my chest, it would thumb four times then wait for four beats,
"Come on Joe!" I heard, beneath the thumping,
"Wake up please!"
I opened my eyes, I chocked on the chlorine in the water, I looked around, I wasn't at home. I was in an ambulance.
"N-no I'm fine! No please! Let me go home!"
"I'm sorry Joe but you could have died." The paramedic said,
"We're is Beth?"
"I'm right here, Joe." Beth moved in front of me and put her hand on my shoulder,
"Why did you call them?"
"Because I care about you, Joe." Beth kissed me on the head.

Squids POV

Nicole, her friend Katie, and I sat by the fire watching Godzilla, Katie hadn't seen it before.
My phone buzzed, and I went to check it,

Joe fainted again, this time it was in the pool. He's on his way to hospital, we had to perform CPR. He's conscious again, we are going to check him out, something is Definitely Not right.
Beth

"Shit, guys I've gotta go."
"What happened, Dave?" Nicole asked,
"Joe fainted again, in the pool, they had to perform CPR and all. I gotta go to the hospital to see him."
"Oh my god is he okay?!" Nicole said, pausing the film, "he could have died."
"I'll soon find out, call me if you need me." I kissed her on the cheek, "bye, I'll be back in a bit."
I left the house and climbed into my Mercedes, I drove out of the house and eventually reached the hospital after about 20 minutes.
I called at reception,
"Hello I'm looking for Joseph Garret?"
"May I ask you relation to him?''
"I'm his friend." I said,
"Ok, floor six cubical 19."
I went straight for the stairs, I ran up and I was surprised that I wasn't exhausted by the time I got to floor 6, that time spent at the gym must have paid off, I walked along the corridor until I found a sign saying
cubicles 10-20
I walked down the isle to where I saw familiar people.
Beth was sitting on a chair, I saw a curly head poking out of the covers. Beth turned around when she saw me,
"David!" She said, walking up to me,
"What you doing here?" Joe said, looking at me,
"Coming to see if your alright, Mate!" I said, sitting down on the side of the bed and putting my arm around his head.
"Tell me, stamps, why are you so angry these days?" I said, looking at his very pale face. "I'm going to hospital for no reason." He moaned,
"Joe just shut up, your not well, okay? You almost died, you need to just take it easy-" "I was taking it easy! I'm still gonna fai-" Joe went completely white, he clutched to his chest,
"Help!" He groaned, reaching for the red button, I quickly pressed it.

Stampys POV

The lights were getting blurry, my heart, it felt like it was cramping, it wasn't flowing right, it wasn't pumping right. It just was not right!
"Stay with me Joe, stay with me."
"Keep your eyes focused on me, look at me,"  it was David, tears were trickling from his face,
"Don't loose me Joe! Don't loose me! Keep fighting, keep fighting you know you can! Focus, Focus on me, count the number of freckles I have in my face or something, focus! Please I don't wanna loose you!"
Beth appeared,
"Everything's gonna be fine, Joe, everything's gonna be fine."
"Keep your eyes focused on me, Joe." I looked at Davids Face, but my eyes couldn't take the pressure.

Meet me in bed.... What does this mean? Why am I the one in hospital.. Wasn't it her? I'm remembering.. Remembering things..

I blacked out.

Squids POV

"He's gone, quickly get someone, I jammed the red button, nurses came piling in,
"He just had a heart attack! Where the hell were you?!" I yelled,
"Sorry sir w-"
"I don't care, go and save my friend!"
They reached out defibrillators, put him in the recovery position and watched them thump and pump at him.
Beth and I sat at the end on the best opposite him, tears streaming down our faces, I wrapped my arm around her, not having any words of comfort.
"W-will he be okay?" She mumbled, I could lie and say yes, but truthfully,
"I don't know, Beth. I really don't know."
