Short Stories with Tragic Endings

I am in some sort of hotel with a bunch of friends and I am looking for my crush.
I do reality checks so much now that I often do them just to do them, this is the case
here. I do a reality check just to see if I'm dreaming, nothing prompted me. I don't
think I'm dreaming but I try to put my finger through my palm anyway. To my astonishment,
it works. I become lucid for a few seconds walk around the hallway. I think, hey "This
brings my lucid count to 3!". Wrong, its 2. Later, the lucidity faids just as soon
as it started and so does the dream.
