Reunion

THE NEXT MORNING

Madison jolted awake from her sleep, panting and sweating. She couldn't shake off the feeling of dread that had crept over her, and as she sat up in bed, her eyes darted around the room and her head acing her so bad.

She recognizes the room not to be hers.

That's when she saw them.

Zane, Adrian, and Liam were standing in front of her in a somber line, their faces twisted in pain and sorrow.

"Madison," Liam began, his voice shaking.

She stared at him suspiciously and carved her brows at him.

“Where is Zach?” she asked first.

“You were there last night. It all happened so sudden and it pains me to say this.” Zane cried

"There's no easy way to say this, but... Zach is dead." Adrian said

Madison's heart dropped, and she felt the color drain from her face. She squeezed her eyes shut, hoping that this was all just a terrible dream.

But when she reopened them, the boys were still there, their expressions unchanged.
