J's pov
I hear someone come into my room. I couldn't tell who as I buried my head in my knees. I didn't know what was going on? I didn't know who the girl was in my bed? She said her name was Caitlin and she was my girlfriend. Nope can't be. I hear someone talking. Jon. Can't be.

"Caitlin what's wrong?" asked Jon

"Jordan. I think he had a nightmare".

"OK. But that's, not the reason you panic call me".

"No. He's not him. If you get me".

"Why?".

"Doesn't remember me when he woke up. He moved away from me. Won't let me touch him. And he's been like that since he screamed himself awake".

"He has done this before".

"He has".

"Night terrors caused by his PTSD".

My knee is hurting cos I'm in this position. I feel a hand on my shoulder. It feels familiar.

"Jordan, are you ok?".

I look up from my knees by resting my chin on them. I come to face with hazel eyes looking back at me. They look familiar but not sure.

"Have you had another nightmare again.".

"Who are you?".

"Jon".

"Nope you're not".

"Jordan I think you're still sleeping. You are having night terrors again".

"Iamnotsleep".

"Then why can't you focus on me".

"Idontknowwhoyouare".

"Let's get you comfy again as your knee isn't supposed to be like that".

"Iamfine".

"Sure you are. Let's get you comfy so you can sleep properly".

"Imawake".

"Then speak properly then. Caitlin, I'm coming back as I'm going to get Harley to help".

"Ok Jon".

Only one of them left the room. The other one is still in my bed. Who is she?. I wish they would leave me alone. Who are they? The door goes again. Now there are two people in front of me.

"J, we are going to make you comfy again. You are still asleep. This position you are in isn't helping your knee".

"Itsfine".

"Even when you're out of it, you still have a painful look on your face. Why can't you let us help you so you can sleep peacefully again".

They start to move my legs so my knee is straight again.

"Getoffme" I try to swing an arm but failed.

They gently push me back so my back is on the bed and my head in the pillows. My eyes were getting heavy. I was soon asleep again. I don't hear anyone leaving.

I woke up later in the morning. The sun was shining through the window. I was spread across the middle of my bed wrapped up in the duvet. I look over to the right side of the bed but Caitlin wasn't there. I try to move but the pain in my knee isn't having any of it. Why is it hurting so much? I slide myself up so I'm sitting upright. I'm worried about where Caitlin is. I grab my crutches which were by the bed. I swing my left leg out followed by my right one as I get up out bed. I hop out of my room to find anybody. I go to the kitchen because I need food and my meds. I found Jon and Harley.
