Lost in your own life

Riley
I sat upright on my desk chair blasting music in my earbuds as I checked my email. At first I thought I heard a knock, but it must be my music. I shrugged it off and clicked on one of the emails.

I hummed along with my music, but stopped when I saw him. I rubbed my eyes to make sure it wasn't real. As I opened my eyes again, the picture was clear now. I cried when I saw Lucas kissing a red hair chick. I looked to see who sent this picture, but it said anonymous.

My chair moved two inches backwards, when suddenly my butt fell to the ground. Ow. I went to my closet and grabbed my jacket and my running shoes.

I walked with a slow pace, and decided to run while tears run down my face.

Why was Lucas kissing her!? I don't know, but I knew he was lying to us. But why? I thought he liked me. Psh, I bet that was all an act to break your little heart. My pace went back to going slow, but now it was fast.

I was going fast on the streets and my eyes were getting blurry. I kept on going and going until I thought I saw heaven, but then gasped when my vision was getting stronger.

The lights I thought I was seeing was a car light coming towards me at a fast speed. Everything around me was turning black. This was it. I knew I would die soon.

I ran to the hospital as fast as I can. I can't bear to lose my best friend in the whole wide world. Without her, life wouldn't be enjoyable.

The hospital looked a lot older than our school. As I stepped inside I walked up the the desk and hoped that they take visitors in.

"Ma'am, can you tell me what room Riley Matthew's is in?" I asked with my polite voice. The lady didn't even look at me or blinked. I hate when people ignore you and their so intact with their own lives.

I coughed and that finally got her attention. I asked the question again and she declined me. "I'm sorry Hun, but she can't see any visitors yet." She said eyeing her screen again. I needed a plan to see Riley.

I walked back to the front door, but saw a closet full of nurse's outfit which gave me an idea. My head turned in both direction to see if anyone is coming. I went into the closet and put on a nurse's outfit.

I grabbed a clipboard from the closet and walked casually. I looked at the lists of the patients name and found Riley's name. She's in room 55. I said the number repeatedly over and over until I arrived at her door.

The door was just like any other door, but there's something off about it. I moved my hands towards the doorknob...until then someone stopped me. The stranger's hand was on my hand which gave me a warm feeling.

I looked up and found a name tag. I squinted my eyes to see what his name is. Bradley it said. Bradley looked too young to be a doctor. I must've been staring at him to long when he suddenly threw me up on his shoulder and carried me off who knows where.

My hand turned into a fist and I started to punch him, but that did nothing. I sighed and let him carry me off somewhere.

I woke up feeling slightly light headed and my head is hurting a whole bunch. My eyes viewed the room and wondering how I ended up in the hospital. I stood up and walked around the hospital, but there was nobody there.

I found myself at the front of the room and walked into the beautiful sun. Everything around me was still and silent. This is very awkward, what should I do? Let's go check out your place and see if our parents are home. I walked up to the front of my house and opened it.

Everything was in place as it was, but no sign of my parents or anyone. I went to investigate my room and found nothing. Should I go visit my friends house and see if they're there? Yeah, let's go visit Lucas's house. Luckily Lucas's house is three blocks down.
