I wake up soaking wet. I look around and see that I am on the floor with a towel underneath of me. I slowly get up when I hear footstep come into the room.
"Good, you're awake" Chandler says crouching down to my side.
"How long was I out for" I ask.
"About a day" he says.
"What happened" I asked.
"On your way back to the house, you slipped and fell into the lake" he responded.
"There's a change of clothes in the bathroom for you" he said gesturing me to the door on the left.
I walked over and opened the door. On the bathroom sink was a stack of clothes. I shut the door and began to change. I hung my wet clothes on the towel rack. I grabbed the shirt and put it on. It was a black short-sleeve shirt. Next I put on the dark blue jeans. They were really baggy but I don't care. I put on the combat boots next to them and headed out the door. I walked downstairs to see Chandler on the front porch.
I opened the door and sat next to him."What's wrong" I ask.
"I've lost everything" he says almost in a whisper." I lost my mom and brother five years ago" he continued "and I really don't think my dad will return from the Atlanta base."
I looked at him for a second and far him a hug.
"I'm sorry that you've lost so many people." With that said, I hugged him. I don't know why, maybe it's because I feel sorry for him or maybe I have feelings for him.
