Dedicated to SyannePotts because her comment really made me laugh.

Picture on the side= I need to get a life.

I've never been the kind that you'd call lucky,

Always stumbling around in circles,

But I must have stumbled into something.

Look at me,

Am I really alone with you?

      Now, I could say that I was drifting, a white light slowly approaching, but not only would that have been cliché and unrealistic, it would've been a lie.

      Unlike how they described it in books, I didn't feel pleasant and painless. My head was pounding and everything felt sore. Also unlike the books, I didn't take a trip down memory lane. There was no beeping either, instead there was an oh-so-lovely melody of familiar, tired and not really musical voices.

      "I'm going to kill him!" Okay, maybe not every voice was tired.

      "Oh give it a rest, Kaden, you've been at it for the past hour. I have now imagined Blake dying fifty-six times thanks to your awesome descriptions," Kallie said sarcastically in a weary voice. I grinned slightly and tried to pry my eyelids up, but only managed to get them to flutter.

      "Guys, she's awake," Annabelle called from somewhere on my left.

      "Raine? Can you hear me?" Kaden asked.

      "Way to be cliché, Kade," Kallie remarked. I rolled my eyes. Way to make me feel loved, Kal, way to make me feel loved.

      "How are you so calm about this?" Kaden snapped. Yay, nice to know someone cares, even if it's Kaden.

      "The doctor said she's fine. It was just fainting. Nothing deadly. As long as Raine's not gonna die in the next twenty four hours, I'm good," she replied, a bit too loudly.

      I groaned as her voice sent a rocketing pain through my head. "Will all of you just shut up?" I demanded, sighing. "I feel like something ran me over."

      "Funny how that's pretty much exactly what happened," Kaden remarked, sounding bitter. This was enough to make me force my eyes open and attempt to sit up.

      "What?" I demanded struggling against Kaden, who was trying to push me back down.

      Kallie sat up from her spot on the window seat and rolled her eyes. "Ignore him, Raine. He's exaggerating. A drunk driver hit Blake's car, it spun a couple of times and you fainter," she told me. Aww, geez, I feel weak for fainting, but oh well.

      "At least I care," Kaden said, shooting a slight glare at his sister.

      "I care!" she retorted, angrily.

      "Then maybe you should act like it!" Kaden shot back. I pressed my fingers to my temple, trying to calm my raging headache.

      "Guys? I really don't think you're helping Raine here," Annabelle spoke up. I smile gratefully at her before leaning back burying half my face in the pillow.
