Porter's POV:
Nova had went off to work. Light went to school and I didn't have James go to school. He was up all night. He didn't even sleep. I held him in my arms as he cried over his sister.

"Why don't you go and see Dylan?" I asked

"Why don't you go and see Dylan?" I asked. James shook his head and said "I don't wanna leave her. What if she wakes up and I'm not here." I frowned and understood where he was coming from. I totally did. But I didn't want him to wait here for something that wasn't going to happen for a while. "She's not going to wake up today." I said. James cried and I rubbed his back. "You don't know that." He said. "Why would she wake up the day after she went into a coma?" I asked. James cried again. Not answering me.

"Go see Dylan

"Go see Dylan. That'll cheer you up." I said. James pulled away from me, wiping his eyes. "Where are your glasses?" I asked. "Can't really cry with glasses on." He replied. I rolled my eyes playfully and said "Dylan doesn't know. Go tell him." He nodded and left the room. I sighed and put my head in my hands.

Holly's POV:
"What if she wakes up and I'm not here." James voice echoed. I gasped as I was in my house again. I saw my body in my bed. The heart monitor beeped and I tried to somehow make contact with dad or James. "James." I whispered. He looked at my body and then began to cry again. "Dad. Can you hear me?" No response. My heart broke once again. James left and I sighed. I made the lights flicker in the room and dad looked around. "Dad." I said. "Holly?" He asked. I made the lights flicker again and he stood up and went to grab something. He grabbed a whole string of Christmas lights and plugged them in. "Holly, if this is you, make the lights flicker again. Please." He said. I sat in front of him and made the Christmas lights come on. He gasped and said "oh my god. Holly."
