Chapter 125

I was foggy for a few minutes while I tried reopening my eyes. The room was covered in a thick black fog of smoke, and I could smell something that smelt of fire and burnt flesh but the black cloud in the room was preventing me from seeing where it came from. My ears were ringing, and I could barely hear anything. I was pretty sure the slight sound making its way into my ears was Natasha screaming. I really hoped she was okay, but I still couldn’t see anything.

I sat up and tried popping my ears to no success. All I could do was sit there and wait for my ears to stop ringing or for some of the fog to dissipate. A few minutes passed and suddenly all the noise came rushing in. I felt like I was in a room with thousands of people instead of just five. I called out to each of them in turn and everyone answered me saying they were okay except for Kyle.

I was relieved when Shane said that he was fine but not getting an answer from Kyle was almost as painful as if it was my future husband.
