When I grabbed Lauren, she used all her strength to shield me. My body uncontrollably plummeted to the left and I experienced a dizzying spin. Lauren held me tightly in her embrace as the car violently tumbled. A horrible crashing sound drowned out our screams.

It seemed like everything had finally come to a halt. I felt dazed as if my consciousness had slipped away.

Suddenly, I sensed icy water splashing over me, and my senses sharpened. My arm throbbed with piercing pain.

"Lauren..." My voice was weak. I felt Lauren under me, and she didn't let go.

"Lauren, are you okay? Lauren..." I adjusted my body, attempting to check on Lauren.
