Emma Miller is the classic glasses-wearing nerd in school, but she is also dresses like a tomboy and loves running as a sport. Being that combination, makes it hard to find true best friends and tha...
With that last thought, I drifted off to sleep and a horrifying nightmare starting to develop in my head...
I appear in a pitch black, endless room. I can't see nothing, not even my hands when I lift them up.
I start to get scared, not knowing what may happen now. My dreams are pretty weird so you do not know what to expect.
I wish I could just snap out of them, but I always do when it gets too scary or when it's too weird. Sometimes they are short, sometimes they are very long. Who is it going to be tonight?
Out of nowhere, a light illuminates down to a stand that I hadn't notice before. Then, another light illuminates another stand across from the other.
When my eyes adjust to the light, I see that two people walk behind the stand. Jake is on the left and Lucas in on the right.

What are they doing here?
"You only have one minute to pick the love of your life and the one remaining will die. If you pick none before the time, they both die" a masculine, low tone said as it echoed through the room.
Then, I digital red clock started counting backwards, my heart starting to beat fast.
59, 58, 57...
I started hesitating, not knowing who to pick. I notice a stand appeared in front of me out of nowhere, and has a red button with two white buttons on top with each of their names. I guess I have to pick the name first and then hit the button.
"Emma! Pick me!" Lucas shouted and wiggled his body, since he was tight up with a rope.
"I love you!" Jake shouted, already in tears.
I love you too...
The time is ticking, already in forty seconds. Who do I pick?
I pace around, not knowing what to do. They can die! And I can't lose them both, I can't live without them. It's too much to bear. I start to hyperventilate and I feel the walls close around me, and the pressure of the decision on my shoulders.

I look at both of them, to see if it triggered something. This is too hard for me.
4...
"Pick one!" The voice said. I feel my hands shake.
3...
"I-I can't! I can't choose!" I said, panting.
2...
"Emma!" They both shouted in unison.

I scream and sit down on the bed, almost out of breath. I feel the soft blanket on the lower part of my body. I am in the hotel room, at last. I take a few more deep breaths to notice the clock that marks 6am. I need to get ready.
