I run to I don't know where. All I see is trees and leaves on the ground. I stop to catch my breath before noticing that I don't know where I am.

Then I do the most stupid thing I could've done. I spin around looking for a way out or some sign to go that way. That gets me even more lost because I can't run back the way I came.

"Fuck!" I scream, choking on my air.

I punch a tree, feeling pain course throughout my hand. But I don't stop there. I keep doing it over and over again until my hands are covered in my own blood.

I cry out in pain, my body shaking from the cold and panic.

I listen for anything. Cars. Barking. Voices. But I hear nothing.

I bite my tongue, running one direction that seems familiar but I'm not sure.

"Hello?!" I yell, trying to see if anyone can hear me.

My heart pounds and my hands shake fiercely, still having wet blood on them.

"Dallas!" I scream, trying to see if he's still there.

Goddammit Keith! Why are you so stupid?!

"Keith?!" A faint voice yells back after a few seconds. My heart skips a beat when I hear Dallas' voice.

It sounds like his voice is everywhere. I can't tell which direction it's coming from.

"Help!" I shout, trying to listen closely.

"Keith! Where are you?!" His voice sounds like it's bouncing from the left but the sound waves are coming from the right.

"I don't know!" I say, my shoulders getting heavier with anxiety.

"Come here! Follow my voice!" He says. It still bounces but it's more clear.

I walk slowly, wanting to get back to know where I am but also not wanting to see him.

"Keeping talking!" I say, being comforted by his voice but also angry.

"What am I supposed to say? I'm a dick!" He yells and I smile.

"I am so sorry, Keith! I'm such an asshole! I shouldn't have done it! I know sorry ain't good enough but if you let us talk, maybe things can go back to the way they used to be!" His voice comes closer as I walk and my body tenses.

"I don't know. I-I want to but I don't know if I can," I say truthfully.

"Please! Give me another chance," he comes into view and my breath hitches.
