A/N: Before you read this chapter, I want you all to know that this is the last one before the epilogue. I loved writing this story and I hope you enjoyed it just as much as I enjoyed writing it.

"Hey Cary, I miss you, schools lonely and I cannot wait until next week. It's break you know?
Scott got arrested. Caught drunk and was beating up a girl downtown. I'm so sorry.
Though I guess I should be glad it's not you.
Do you remember that guy I was telling you about? He's still amazing. Makes me feel like a girl in a romance movie. I wish you were able to talk about him with me."
She smiles sadly and squeezes her hand. A scream rang through the room when her hand was squeezed back.
"What happened?"
"She- she squeezed my hand!"
"Doctor Carson!"
"What?"
"This girl says Caroline squeezed her hand."
"Tell me what happened?"
"I was telling her about... stuff and I grabbed her hand. I squeezed it and she squeezed back!"
"It might be a false alarm but we should still run some tests. Kanu, please set up a-"
"Her eyes!"
Everyone in the room looked Caroline's direction, where she was indeed staring at the ceiling with her eyes open.
"Caroline? Can you follow my finger?"
The doctor moved his finger in front of her eyes, watching in amazement as her eyes followed.
"Kanu, get me a blood test and book an MRI."
"Why does she need an MRI?"
"It's just precaution, you have nothing to worry about. Why don't you go and wait outside, I assume her parents will be here soon."
She left the room, looking back at her friend with wide eyes. "She's awake."
