I sorted through my mind. “I remember having suicidal thoughts,” I said. “I had to have (Note: Or you could just spell it, to've, as a compound.) been so depressed that I began drinking alcohol from my brother’s stash, when I became so drunk that I actually went through with the suicidal thoughts.” Neither of us spoke. We stood there in silence(,) until Abbey walked over to me, and gave me a light hug.
I was waking up in some other room, I hadn’t seen it before. (This sentence would sound smoother written just as: "I was waking up in some other room I hadn't seen before."
It was rectangular(;) around the size of a regular bedroom for a teenager my age.
Looking around, I counted a total of four doors in the room(.) Each were metal, futuristic looking. Kind of like from star wars, but the size of a regular door. (I would alter the last sentence to make it sound a little more smoother.. -mature. Still using the example of the Star Wars though if you like.)
I didn’t know where I was(.) In fact, I couldn’t remember much about the night before.
. .I would have spent the rest of eternity with her if I could have. (You can also write this as simply could've)
The room felt like it was at the perfect temperature(;) not hot, not cold.

But did they have information of me? My family?
The computer took me to a screen with all of the information I could ever want(Change "want" to "wish". It sounds better.) to know.
I was starting to get creeped out. (It would also sound good as, "I was beginning to get creeped out.")
Moments later(,) the text was replaced with
I saw on the television the crash(.) You died. What’s going on here?”
“I did die, Jacob. You had to have died too to get in here,”
“I don’t know the name of this place(.) I’ve only been here a day or so, but from what I’ve been searching through, this place is some kind of connection among those who have died(.) A second life, so to speak.
“We’re looking at one of your memories from third person(.) Specifically a few minutes before your death.”
No more noise, no more cars moving(.) Even the raindrops stopped in mid air.
I have never drank alcohol in my entire life.
I had to've been badly drunk, but was I…?
