As I ran through all the groups of people,faces blurring by so fast I could barely recognize the expressions,my heart thudded powerfully against my stone-hard chest.The night was pitch black,making it difficult to see the right direction I was heading in.I had to find him,I had to get away from them...I didn't know where to go that was safe.Pushing through all the people while they shouted and cussed at me,I finally found him.I ran up to him,delight overflowing my mind.I grabbed his hands and interlocked them with mine as I closed my eyes.
"Thank God I found you..." I said,exasperated.He never answered back.
I opened my eyes and saw him covered in blood and cuts.I lost my breath for a split second, then screamed as his hands slipped away from mine and watched him fall to the ground.
I shot up from my bed,still screaming.The sweat beaded down my face and chest.I sighed and wiped my eyes.I got up from my bed and went into the bathroom.I looked at my face;it was pale (as it always was) and drowned in sweat,I had large dark circles under my bright blue eyes,my hair was tangled and was curled back up at the ends a little.I decided to take a quick shower to wash away the fact that I felt disgusting.After I got out,I went back into my room and got dressed.The sun shone in through the cracks in between the blinds.I pulled them up and saw the blinding sun.Another beautiful day in Huntington,West Virginia.The weather was always so crazy here;never knew if it was going to be sunny or rainy,cold or warm.I just slipped on a pair of skinny jeans and a tshirt.I put on my grey converse and laced them up,and tied my hair back into a simple pony tail.
I walked down the hallway and saw no one was up.Dad was at work and was going to stay up there until tomorrow.I didn't know why Mom wasn't up,she usually was at about this time.My older brother was spending most of his time at Nan's house ever since he graduated high school,and my other older brother (the oldest of us all) had moved out about three or four years ago.So,I kind of felt like the only child.
I went into the kitchen and got a Poptart.When I was done eating,I grabbed my iPod,cell phone (which I hated to carry around),and the keys to my hand-me-down car.It was an old '96 Chevy (my grampa only wanted his grandkids to ride "the best old cars",so we all had Chevy's).That car was my oldest brother's before it was mine.It worked okay;the transmission was shot from time to time,and the air conditioner didn't work,but it held up pretty well.In it's whole lifethime,it got in only one wreck and I'd only scraped against a few cars in parking lots.
It was getting close to the end of the year at school and I was only two years from graduating all together,then I'd head off to college...which I was forever being asked about what I was going to do there and which one I was going to.But,I tried to focus on right now as best I could.
I pulled into the parking lot in the back behind the school.The engine cut off and I opened the door.I put all my stuff in my pockets but continued listening to my music.I had it so loud I couldn't hear my friends calling for me.Until my very best friend,whom I've known my whole life,tugged at my arm.I gasped (i was still jumpy from this morning) and pulled out my headphones.I could now hear exactly how loud the music was and turned of my iPod.
"Hey!" she said cheerfully.I looked her up and down.She was wearing her regular black converse with a pair of grey skinny's and a band shirt.Her hair was straightened as usual and she wore the same dark makeup.She looked the same as she always did,but there was something different about her.
She was smiling,something she rarely did during the morning.Then I realized why she was so happy.Behind her stood her boyfriend,and my other best friend.He must've picked her up.That was sweet.He has his moments,but most of the time he's like...well,he's kind of like another annoying older brother to me.
"Hey," I said,not near as enthusiastic as her.I looked over her shoulder and waved at him.He smiled his extremely wide,toothy smile and waved back.I couldn't help but break a grin.
We started walking to towards the school,well,I did.They followed a few footsteps behind.I put my headphones back in and began listening to music again.I usually let them walk alone and talk and stuff.I never liked to interfere.I knew they didn't mind if I walked with them and things like that,but I just thought it was esier and better that way.I know they knew that too,somewhere inside.
I walked through the doors of the school and took out my headphones before I got caught with them and got them taken away,which if they did,I'd be really ticked.I walked to my locker and put away my things and pulled out my books for first period.I heard them laughing a little ways behind me.I silently went into the music room and put my books on the shelf.I sat down at my assigned seat and waited for the rest of the class to come.I heard my friends walk in and then sit down.They're assigned seats were a little further away from mine.
"Are you okay?" she asked,as she normally did when I had an unhappy look on my face.She was continuously concered about me and my insane moods and all of the health problems I had.She ran up and gave me a big hug."Ohh!" she exclaimed."Is your head hurting?" shw whispered now.
"No," I said flatly.My head hurt about three-fourths of the time,but not right now.I had other things on my mind,or in my mind...
"Would you think I was crazy if I told you I had....hallucinations?" I asked skeptically.
She released me and stepped back a few inches.
"What kind of hallucinations?" she asked back.
I bit my lip as I hesitated to find a sane way to say it."Like,I see this guy all the time.In my dreams,in my car,in my room...am I crazy?"
She stared at me,her eyebrows raised."Umm....have you gone to the hospital and got that x-ray yet?"
She didn't neccessarily answer my question,but I would answer hers."No,why?"
"You have to go.Like,really.You're scaring me.I don't want to people going crazy..." she trailed off.
She was right.I had to go,and I had to go now.
