Wake up, Sam whispers, fingers clenched tight around Dean’s. I know you’re still in there. Wake up. Please, wake up.
It’s been three days with no change and Sam hasn’t slept at all. He hasn’t left the room once. He’s answered all the questions and listened to all the medical talk, and he knows that Dean’s not coming back.
He knows that. He just doesn’t believe it. He can’t believe it because Dean is always there. Dean is… Dean.
Wake up, Sam cries, gripping Dean’s hand tight. Please, Dean. Wake up. C’mon, man. Dean.
No answer. No movement.
No Dean.

Eliot has only ever been good at two things: riding horses and fighting. He had considered going into showing, but that didn’t work out when he couldn’t stay out of fights, so he decided to focus on his other skill.
He misses horses, their scent and their noise, the way they felt beneath him. He misses how complete he felt, on the back of a horse, out in the field or the arena, nothing else but how they moved.
But he has fighting now, and it doesn’t feel as right as a horse and the ground and nothing else but the sky—but right enough.

No one on the basketball team has ever thought of Ryan as fragile. But lying unconscious in that hospital bed, pale, unmoving, hooked up to a respirator, unable to breathe on his own—it’s the only thought going through Chad’s head.
“He’ll be okay,” Jason keeps saying over and over, holding Kelsi. Sharpay is sobbing in Zeke’s arms, Gabriella hasn’t let go of Troy’s hand, and Taylor is on her cell-phone, trying to track down the Evans.
Chad’s fingers are still curved into fists. He still has the other boys’ blood beneath his nails.
He hopes he killed them all.
