CHAPTER 14
Fox walked along the streets of Harmony, Maine. He was deep in thought. Thoughts about what his sister had said not too long ago. Could it be true? Could she be right?
Deep down, he knew the answer. She was right. He hated to admit it, but.....she was right. He knew that he was in love with Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald. He just had to admit it to himself, then everything would work out like it's supposed to.
"Hey.....you look like you're in another world." He turned around, glad to see the person behind him.
"Just thinking!" He replied.
"About.........."
"About what we talked about.....about what you said."
Anna Crane smiled victoriously.
"Really, do you realize that you love Theresa yet?"
"Yeah.....I do!"
"Good, it's about time! I thought I was gonna have to go after you with a baseball bat!" Anna laughed.
"First off.....I'm not Theresa, and you're not Gwen!" He laughed with her.
"So.....what did you do with your life when you and Theresa split for that while?"
"Trust me.....I was miserable."
"Good!"
"You're not supposed to wish your brother is miserable!"
"Sure.....why not?"
"Because.....you're just not!"
"Right!"
"Look, as much as I love to talk to you, I really have to be going."
"Sure, talk to you later."
"Yeah."
She was afraid. She was afraid to go to sleep. What if she had another nightmare? What if it came true? She couldn't deal with that right now.
"Theresa?" Fox questioned from the doorway.
"Fox.....hey!"
"Hey, you look tired.....why don't you go to sleep?"
"I'm afraid.....I'm afraid I'll have another nightmare, and it will come true." She cried.
He felt a pang in his heart at the pain that reflected in her eyes. She was suffering, and he couldn't make it go away.
"Everything's going to be alright!" He held her in his arms protectively. "I won't let anything happen to you!"
"But.....what if you can't control it? Then what?"
"Look, I said I won't let anything happen to you, and I meant it!"
"Thank you.....for everything you have done to help me!"
"I was glad to help!"
And he was. He was glad to help her, and he was glad that she allowed him to help her.
"Look, thanks for being here, but I think I'm gonna take a walk.
"Sure!"
She went to the swimming pool. It was a nice, warm night, and she needed to cool off a bit. Once she was in the water, she had to wait a while to adjust to the cool water, but soon after, she was enjoying herself.
"Hey!" Theresa heard a voice from behind her.
"Hey yourself!" She said once she saw who it was, who was joining her in the water.
"So, why are you out here by yourself?" Fox asked, swimming beside her.
"I needed to get away, to just relax, and not have any worries!" She said, but she didn't realize that she just jinxed herself.
Out of nowhere, she saw it. A funnel in the middle of the pool, and Fox was holding her toward the edge, so she wouldn't get caught up in it.
They tried to get out of the water, but it was impossible.....they were trapped.
She was getting tired, and her arms and legs were hurting. She couldn't feel the bottom, because there was none, but how is that possible, and how far did this pool go down? The funnel, it surrounded her, and she found herself in the middle of it. She heard him yelling for her to swim out of it, but she was too weak, and she was being pulled further and further down. He grabbed her hand, but it was slippery, and she was slipping away. He couldn't pull her, but he was not about to let go of her, not without a fight.
"HOLD ON!" He yelled to her, but she couldn't.
She was drowning, and she couldn't hang on, she was too weak. She accidently let go of his hand, and slipped, she slipped away forever. The pool was back to normal, but the young woman was gone, and she was never coming back.
"NO!" The young man yelled, crying.
He was frantically searching for her, but she was gone, and nothing was ever going to bring her back. Nothing.
No previews this time. I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter, cause it took me a while to write. I won't be able to get another chapter up anytime soon, so I hope this holds you all over. Please review, because I don't know if I want to keep this story going. I might discontinue it, but I don't know
