It's dark. No one else can be seen around me. "Hello?" Only my voice echoes around me.
"Where is everyone?!" A light flashes in the distance. A flashlight? No, it's not a flashlight. The light streaks across the sky.
Small drops of rain softly begin to fall, splashing on my skin. I'm alone. I'm alone and in the rain. No one is coming. No one is here.
"You're wrong." A voice is suddenly behind me. It sounds familiar. It seems as if they read my thoughts. Did I say something out loud?
Then their arms wrap around me, chin resting on my shoulder. I know who it is now. I missed him. I'm not alone anymore.
