I woke up several hours later. I was disorientated and I felt out of place. I lifted my head up, capturing my surroundings and realizing I was still in the hospital. I had fallen asleep at my aunts hand, my head resting on the soft cushioning of the hospital bed. I got up and yawned, stretching my arms.

I looked down at my Comatose aunt and smiled warmly. I walked over to her and kissed her forehead, whispering "I'll see you soon Gracie..I love you..." I walked over to the chair that was cast in the corner and took my jacket off the arm of the chair and put it on. I walked to the door and looked back. I turned back around and closed the door, wondering if I was going to come back soon and see her once again...

I walked back home, the dark sky filled with glittering stars. I didn't know how long I slept but I figured I had slept until the evening. The cold wind was beating at my shoulders, making me shiver. I went to my house, which coincidentally, was my aunts as well. It was quite a simple house. It had a porch and a small backyard, it had 5 rooms and two floors. I walked up the set of stairs that lead up the porch and reached into my pocket to get my keys. I finally pulled them out and fit the key in the lock, hearing the locks click and feeling the door swing open. I stepped inside the warm house and closed the door behind me, closing off the cold outside world.

I dropped my keys on a side table that was next to the door and sighed. I looked around at the cozy interior, wondering how I was still able to pay for the house with my aunt in the hospital. I took off my shoes and put them in the closet. I went across the hall and into the laundry room, taking off my uniform and putting it in the dishwasher. I put on some sweats and a band t-shirt, two of the most comfortable clothes I have. I moved towards the large living room and sat down on a soft that was skillfully placed to the side. I had just sat down when the home phone rang, sighing I picked up the phone and said "hello..?"

I heard running around in the background, followed by heavy sighs. Someone finally replied "hello dear, sorry to call you late at night but something happened a few minutes ago. Niall Horan and Harry Styles had managed to escape and we really don't know where. Honey, remember to keep your windows and doors locked and a phone by your bed!" With that, she hung up. My eyes were filled with terror and I ran to lock the windows. I went to lock the one in the kitchen and froze in my tracks, the window was open and the wind was blowing through.
