TRIGGER WARNING

Dane
When he blinked awake, his head aching and swimming, his first thought was LILA.
His mouth was dry and his head felt like something was trying to claw through his skull, but he forced himself to open his eyes.
He tried to sit up, to look for her, but he was only able to roll over. A quick scan told him that while he was in a different room than he'd been in before, he still didn't recognize where he was from the Lila photographs. And she wasn't here, either. His head screamed at him when he turned his neck, but he forced himself to do it. Which is how he found his father, sitting in a chair, a few feet away, watching him.
