Gone

You always think about what you would do if someone died. At least I did, but you never know how to react if they actually do. Here I am sitting on my couch after just finding out that my dad died by being in a car crash with a semi-truck.

I feel like I can barely breathe. My chest feels heavy and I'm dizzy. This must be what it's like to have no parents left. God only knows where Carly is so now I'm all alone. I'm not good at being alone.

Now I think I will go back to the hotel and see Lukas and stay there, but I can't seem to think straight. Before I know it the world starts spinning and I feel my cheek hit the floor.

When I wake up, I don't remember where I am. Then everything came back to me. My dad died and my sister disappeared. Now I'm alone and I need to find Lukas. I pack up everything in my room and head out to find the hotel again.

I find the hotel in 10 minutes and I go inside with tear stained cheeks. I thought about my dad on the walk to the hotel and now I have tears running down my face. I walked into the hotel and saw Lukas immediately and ran up to him. When he saw me walking to him, he pulled me into a hug the second I reached him.

I stayed in Lukas' arms for a good five minutes. He held me and let me cry in his arms. After we let go he walked me back to my room and stayed with me until I fell asleep.

My eyes shoot open and I do what was possibly the fastest sit up known to man. I look around and see Lukas in the chair next to my bed, asleep. I smile when I see him and I get up to get a glass of water. My glass is almost full when someone wraps their arms around my waist and lay their head on my right shoulder.

I turn my head and see Lukas there with sleepy eyes. He looked at me and smiled. I smiled back and turned off the tap because my glass was full. I walked back to the bed with Lukas following me.

When I got to the bed Lukas started heading to the chair. "Lukas" I said softly, "come lay down with me. There is no way I'm going to let you sleep in a chair because of me." He nodded and walked over to the bed and laid beside me.
