...slipped into a coma, or what?” I say, thinking the explanation was clear, “Then you just ran away scared that I was dead and didn’t want to deal with any consequences?”

“No!” She snaps, and cries harder, “It was nothing like that…”

“Then what was it?” I ask, angry.

The thunder is deafening at this point, the lightshow constant. The car rocks in the wind and I pull my hood down to get a good look at her. I want to jump out of that car and just leave. Forget everything that had happened and get on with life. Things were certainly heading down the drain fast.

“You…” She says, “You said you were getting really high, and then you just faded.”

“Faded?”

“You disappeared.” She says, crying and obviously confused, “You started to become transparent and then… you were just… gone.”

POSTING GUIDELINES

First off, if you don't understand how this all works, please check out our help page.
It should answer most of your basic questions.

All authors are responsible for their own content. We don't write this stuff. You do. So feel free to use a little adult humour, but please don't go overboard, or we'll have to flag the story as mature content.
Second, if you're adding a branch to an existing story, make sure that the new branches you create are individually appealing. This makes it easier to keep the storyline alive and kicking.
When you're writing, try not to write more than one or two segments of the same story at a time. It keeps the story fresher and funnier if you let others play along. :)
Posts need to be at least 140 characters long. That's about three average sentences, not too painful, but it prevents spamminess.
Finally, try not to kill off the main character in a story... at least, permanently. It can be pretty detrimental to the storyline — it's also useless, as someone is bound to revive the character.
If you find a problem somewhere, or see a bad posting, click the red report button on a story or user profile and report it to us!
Note: Please be careful if you spent a long period of time writing the same branch. It's entirely possible that someone else is completing the same branch as you, and in that case, since we don't lock posts while you edit, whoever posts first will "win" and you'll have to move your post elsewhere.
