    I've been binge reading this story and your amazon challenge and now that I am completely up to date with them, I am utterly crushed! I'm so used to clicking next when there's a cliffhanger and now, I have to wait to see what's going to happen! Please update, you are a wonderful writer! :smiley:

    I know that feeling! I just got caught up on both stories in the past week and I've been sad about it. It's like binge watching a tv show halfway through the season. You're just like, wait... now I gotta wait a week or so before finding out what's next?! Booooo!

    Annnd caught up since last I left. And let me tell you... that last chapter had me in tears. It reminded me of my Sims 3 legacy when I used "Will I" from Rent for the same kind of emotional story. But, I know you wouldn't do what I did to poor Jackson...at least, I hope not. Also, so happy Mako is out of the picture. I'm so glad I never got on board that ship and kept swimming around the remains of Winston. I can totally get on board with Luci though.

    Chapter 2.55

    Jackson

    One minute I was admiring my new snakeskin jacket I was going to wear to the concert at Starlight Park and the next minute...nothing. Just darkness like someone had pressed the pause button to my life...

    Then...

    I had the craziest dream.

    My body plunged into a deep, dark pool and I sank...

    Down...

    Down...

    Down...

    Screenshot_1954.jpg

    Flailing, I panicked, as pressure almost swallowed me, beating on my chest. Was I going to die? Drown in this murky water?

    Screenshot_1951.jpg

    The last of my air expired, and I tried to gasp, but nothing worked. Pain seized my lungs, gripping them like a tight vice. This was it for me.

    I knew then.

    I was dying somehow.

    Screenshot_1950.jpg

    My heart throbbed in my ears and I decided to give up. It wasn’t worth the pain that erupted all over my body. My legs, my abdomen, my head...I wanted the plumming torment to stop.

    When all at once, cool soft hands slipped over my body, comforting me.

    The girl looked familiar. I knew her...

    Screenshot_1958.jpg

    Yeah...it was Luci Mueller, a friend from high school. I hadn’t seen her in years, and I wondered why she would be here next to me. It didn’t make sense.

    But in the dream, she helped my misery ease. I smiled as she enveloped me in her arms. I wanted to kiss her just as I did way back when in my grandpop’s basement.

    Screenshot_1959.jpg

    The dream changed, and I was out of the pool looking at her floating above me. She was an angel dressed in white with wings that sparkled silver in the sunlight. She was sheer perfection in radiance. I wanted to gaze at her all day, never leaving this heaven. I figured that was where we were. Did both of us die somehow?

    Screenshot_1962.jpg

    I cried out to her but she didn’t seem to hear me.

    Screenshot_1961.jpg

    Turning, she reached out, beckoning me to her.

    Screenshot_1966.jpg

    As she did, a sharp pain knifed through my temple, and I winced. What was happening to me?

    Screenshot_1963.jpg

    Something shrieked in the distance. Many voices. Cries. Shouts. This seemed to scare Luci.

    Screenshot_1968.jpg

    And just as she appeared in my dream, she vanished.

    Searing agony rippled through me as though I had been set on fire. I wanted to scream, asking God to take me. I didn’t want to deal with it anymore. I just needed the torture to stop.

    Screenshot_1971.jpg

    Instead of floating above the water, I tumbled downward toward the surface of the pool.

    Screenshot_1972.jpg

    My body went limp as crippling pain licked through me like waves of fire burning a forest.

    Screenshot_1975.jpg

    And the me I once knew was no more...I’d totally changed. Something bad had occurred. I figured that out at least.

    Screenshot_1965.jpg

    Very slowly, I began to know I wasn’t in a dream. My world was hazy at best, but the throbbing, ever present torment told me I hadn’t died. Although I wished I had. I couldn’t move. Couldn’t open my eyes. H*ll, I couldn’t even understand what had happened to me or who was with me.

    Screenshot_1976.jpg

    Little by little, I could sense people around me. Sometimes I’d hear low murmurs. Two voices—one deep and the other, a slightly higher male voice. They must have been my fathers. But I couldn’t understand them. They were there, though, almost all the time. Then sometimes, they’d leave and that’s when she would visit.

    I had no idea who she was but I came to rely on her over the time I stayed in that dark place.

    She’d take my hand and stroke me, helping me through the pain.

    Screenshot_1980.jpg

    At first, I thought she was a nurse, coming to do physical therapy or maybe she was just being kind, but day after day, she would be by my side once visitors had left. I searched my brain for who this angel could be.

    Screenshot_1983.jpg

    She held me tight much of the time and would whisper sweetly to me, although I couldn’t understand what she said. My mind was in a jumble but the touch she gave me was all I needed at that time.

    Screenshot_1982.jpg

    I figured it must have been Mako. Although I’d wanted to break up with her, I never got the chance. If an accident happened to me, I was sure she would be by my side like that. This made me happy because the love of this woman told me she was sorry. I was ready to forgive her.

    Screenshot_1977.jpg

    But then sometimes, the woman would bring a guitar and strum delicate chords. These were simple, not something a master guitarist like Mako would do. This was a beginner. So it couldn’t have been Mako.

    Who was this angel?

    I was so confused, but after a while I stopped caring about who it was because I needed her. Sometimes the pain would be so intense that I would cry out. She would send for someone and then my suffering would diminish as smooth fingers of cool medicine washed though my limbs in relief. She would kiss my fingers and stroke my head.

    Screenshot_1981.jpg

    I knew then.

    I loved her.

    Screenshot_1987.jpg

    And she loved me.

    Screenshot_1986.jpg

    One day after the pain increased so much I screamed. My eyes suddenly opened and I saw my angel’s face.

    I gasped.

    Drat! Master of all cliffhangers! It should be Luci because he dreamed of her. But Pammie won't let it be so easy. So it could be Dakota or even Winter sitting there right now.
    I wonder if those angel wings were cc or photoshopped. Also finding a good angel outfit is so hard these days, isn't it?
    Will those scars heal?

    At first I thought it was Luci because the woman is wearing a grey bracelet and Luci was also wearing a grey bracelet during their date at the park...but I looked at the photos again and I don't think it's the same bracelet.

    Like Maladi I'm also wondering if those wings are cc. The angel scenes are so cool! Luci is so gorgeous! :)
  • haswhhaswh Posts: 2,863 Member
    Really! Another one! :s At least Jackson is alive, thank goodness! :) I can finally breath! The suspense is killing me but I'm almost positive it's Luci! With Pammiechick one never knows! >:)

    I'm glad that Jackson is alive! My guess is that it's Luci that came to see him since he has been dreaming about her. However, with Pammie, the suspense tightens, so that girl could be Winter.

    Oh my god, the way you staged those scenes was INCREDIBLE. Absolutely gorgeous and truly impressive--I'm in awe!! I think I was distracted by thinking about all the work that must've gone into setting those up. <3

    And aaaa, CLIFFHANGER. I wanna know so badly who's been holding his hand. I'll guess Winter! Or LANA. And then she stabs him in the throat. (Just kidding...!)

    The angel wings are cc. I got them when I did a sim modeling contest last year. I actually liked the outfits since I had to go from the water to the angel scene.

    It's not Dakota. She's with her fathers when she visits. The woman visits after they leave. That's all I'll say.

    At first I thought it was Luci because the woman is wearing a grey bracelet and Luci was also wearing a grey bracelet during their date at the park...but I looked at the photos again and I don't think it's the same bracelet.

    Those wings are cc. They are so gorgeous! Glad you liked that scene! Had it planned for months!!

    Sorry for leaving you hanging...wasn't sure if I'd have time to update...still not sure when the next update will be.

    Yes! He's alive! I couldn't kill off the heir just yet. >:) He's got nooboos to make. Love all the guessing...

    So glad you appreciated the effort! I had to literally shoot that scene FIVE TIMES because I had some poses that were interfering with each other and couldn't figure it out! Ugh! Lol at your guesses...if it was Lana, she'd be slipping poison into his IV... >:)

    Darn it! Cliffhanger! He could either be reffering to Luci because of the angel scene, or Winter because his nickname for her used to be angel.

    Even though the woman in the pictures didn't have tattoos, it still could be Mako. Jackson's in a pretty bad place right now and who's to say that the medication isn't playing with his mind. Everyone seems to be guessing Luci which is why I think it won't be her, maybe Winter or @pammiechick could be playing us all for fools and it could be someone nobody suspects... I'm calling Celia! :D

    He gasped when he saw the face of his angel. If it was Luci, Celia, Mako he would most likely smile. The only person that would make him gasp is Winter, because seeing her is unexpected and shocking and probably painful for him. Can't think of another woman that would cause such reaction.

    You may be right, although I hope your very wrong! Your usually pretty close, so now I'm worried it might be Winter!

    My whole theory is that it was Luci visiting him and playing music for him all the time, but when he woke up it was Winter there. We'll see how much I'm wrong in the next update. :)

    I have no idea why I'm wishing it's Winter. Gah, I hope it's not Victoria or Celia, I would NOT like that.
    Though... knowing he's gonna divorce whoever he marries anyway, maybe he can get this short-lived marriage out of the way with one of them and get back to Luci or Winter.

    This is a great theory! I just can't picture Winter playing the guitar haha.

    Slowly as I'm making my way to the Luci ship, I look down below to the Winter ship and wonder... is it starting to rise from the depths or am I holding out on hope? Gah, PAMMIE you're evil making me hang like this on my raft.
  • WralaiWralai Posts: 477 Member
    So... he won't die yet?
    Yet.
    Yet
    Yet

    @pammiechick I'm worried about Jackson. :#

    Ohhh, I love the way you think. ;) I would still prefer Lana, but psycho stalker fan sounds fun too.
