I could hear voices in the background. My body felt at ease, but something was different. Slowly, I tried to open my eyes. I wanted to know what was happening.
When I took the plunge and opened my eyes, I ended up closed them again. The bright light in the room hurt my eyes, and I couldn’t stand to keep them open.
"She’s awake!" I heard someone yell.
When I finally opened my eyes, I realized I was in my room.
Layton, Zev, Micah, and Jared were in the room with me. The guys quickly approached me when they noticed I was awake.
"How do you feel?" Zev asked me softly.
"Tired and thirsty," I answered, my voice sounding very hoarse.
"You worried me so much. What happened?" Layton held my hand.
There were bags under his eyes. He looked really tired, and that must’ve been my fault.
I hurriedly drank the two cups of water that Micah offered. When I looked up, I found four pairs of eyes gazing at me expectantly.
