My eyes snapped open and I sat up quickly in my bed, hyperventilating silently.

"What the..." I wheezed quietly, placing my hand against my head. It was just a dream... all just a dream. I winced as my wrists sent shooting pain up my arm, making me curse under my breath. I looked the side and my breath caught in my throat as my eyes laid on the broken computer that I had carelessly thrown to the side last night. I quickly pushed the blankets off me and scrambled out the door, refusing to let myself look at that computer. I ran into the bathroom and shut the door with a quiet slam, sliding my back down the door. I brought my knees up to my chest and buried my head in my hands, my breath hitching harshly in my throat.

A soft knock on the other side of the door made me stop breathing, holding my breath in my throat.

"Ty? Are you okay?" Mitch asked worriedly as he knocked again. I stood shakily to my feet and opened the door, tears stinging my eyes.

"Y-Yeah... NO!" I cried, throwing myself in his arms. I sobbed into his shoulder as he patted my back softly.

"H-How could s-she? W-What d-did I e-ever d-do t-to t-those people? I-I w-was n-nothing b-b-but k-KIND. A-AND THIS I-IS W-WHAT I-I G-GET?!" I sob- yelled into Mitch's shoulder as he tries to shush me with 'its okay' and 'shhh Biggums it'll be okay...' I buried my head farther into his shoulder and brought my hand up to my mouth, bitting it to cover screams that were pushing their way out of my mouth. Mitch gently brought me off his shoulder and brushed the tears from my cheeks away. He starred at me sadly before a look of anger crossed his face.

"Their going to pay for this..." Mitch growled as he let go of my shoulder and stormed out to the living room, gathering his keys and shoes.

"Wait M-Mitch! Y-You can't! They'll h-hurt you!" I cried out. Mitch turned to me and sighed.

"I have to..."

And with that, my best friend left, still in his pajamas, to go tell my family out. I stood, frozen, as I starred at the closed door in fear. Mitch just sentenced himself to doom...
