Chapter 5: I keep coming back to you

Hey guys :) I just wanted to give a huge thank you to 4 people (I hope you know who you are) who actually kept me motivated for this chapter. You have no idea how much your love for my story keeps me going and I just want to thank you.

Also this is in Sheldon's pov but I still say Mary instead of him saying my mother the whole time so yeah.

This chapter is going to be sad and interesting so I hope you enjoy it.

Ps: This story is quite sensitive for certain people but this chapter isn't as sensitive.

Sheldon's pov:

I woke up aware of my surroundings now. I was sitting in the corner of the comic book store with a open comic book opened on my lap. I was so confused. I couldn't remember how I got here. All I remembered last was the blinding bright white lights. I could faintly hear the ambulance siren which sent chills down my spine but thought it must have been a nightmare which I felt relieved for.

I got up to dust myself off but realized no one was in the store. It was quiet. I searched around everywhere in the comic book store for anyone but no one was there. I could hear faint voices like it was so far in the distance now.

"I will leave you be and come to check on him later." a voice I didn't recognize said.

I then somehow saw everyone right in front of me except they weren't in the comic book store . It was kind of like I was watching them through a television screen except it was much bigger. All of them were crying and sad.I couldn't understand why they all looked so sad.

Then I felt my heart shatter before me as I saw Amy leaning her head on my mother's shoulder. I looked at the hand that she was so dearly holding to life like it was the only thing that supported her. I could feel my hand tingle a little now.I looked next to them now to realize what all the fuss was about . I felt like I couldn't breathe or move now.

There I saw my lifeless body lying there while everyone just sat there. I didn't know how I was here and there. I couldn't begin to grasp the concept of anything. I just wanted to go back to them . To be there with them again.

I found myself mumbling,"It wasn't a dream. " .

I looked around me and ran to the door to try run out but I couldn't leave. I was stuck there in the one place that was my home away from home but it didn't feel like it anymore. I crawled up in a ball and cried.
-----------------------------------------------------------

I just started pacing around watching the sort of television screen after feeling exhausted of finding absolutely nothing . There was no way of going back.

"Daddy ! Look I'm the flash ." Little Leo said trying to run fast in his little flash costume.

"Is my little boy a superhero ?" Sheldon said laughing .

Leo just nodded then carried on trying to run fast. Sheldon caught him and placed him on his lap.

"You are very fast but I'm faster ." Sheldon said with a smile as he kissed Leo's cheek that made him giggle endlessly.

"Daddy ? Are you a superhero ?" Leo asked.

"I wish but no I am not. "Sheldon said pretending to be disappointed.
