Wheelchair.

Surgery.

Treatment.

Over time.

Years.

I was possibly paralyzed, maybe for the rest of my life, because of one stupid accident my whole career could be over. Maya walked away with a few scratches and cuts, a dislocated wrist, I had a dislocated knee and shoulder, broken ribs, epilepsy, possible parapilegia, I had been impaled. It's not fair, so I broke down, now Shay's coming down even though I said no.

Somethings happening, something always goes wrong, nothing can be good for me, I'll always hurt and hate myself. Now everything is rushing together through my head together, mumbled into one, Shay probably had bad news. Her face said, you're not going to like this and shit I have to tell her. It's always hurting me, life always bites me in the ass, I try so hard just to get hurt.

"So what's the point in even trying anymore?"

"Why should I try just to get rewarded with more pain and hurt and hatred?"

"Shut up me."

I can't just give up and leave everybody, even though I'm hurting and crying I can't just let them all down so easily. It's not fair to them or myself, I have to try harder even though it is breaking me into a million tiny pieces. For Shay, For Asher, For Niko, For Chase, For Travis, For Vic, For Maya, For Jack, For Dean, For Ben, For Jo, For Dad and For Mum's memory.

My phone buzzed with a text from Asher, 'You sure you don't want me to come as well. Please. I miss you.' I smiled, 'I'm the only exciting one and your favourite that's why. :). I'm fine.' Then it buzzed again, 'I just landed, Shay xx.' anxiety creeped up on me again, something was wrong, it isn't right, she's acting weird.

'Grabbing luggage, I've got an uber waiting be about an hour tops. Shay xx.' Whoever she messaged she always put her name at the end, it said who it was from but still does it. An annoying habbit of hers, I never found out why she did it. Travis and Vic walked back in with Dr Shepherd and another Doctor, causing me to groaned.

"Good morning to you too, Lara." Amelia smiled laughing slightly, Travis glared at me playfully, to which I returned to him straight back. "We want to try to get you to stand up today, I'll be right here and so will your friends, Travis will hold you from under the arms and we'll try to get you to take some steps. It sometimes triggers the nerve memory if we move you." She instructed.

"So we want you to move your legs even a little bit, we'll do this everyday, it's your first set of treatment." Doctor DeLuca walked me through it slowly and carefully, my brain tried to slowly work through what I was told. Travis pulled me up by the armpits and stepped behind me with Vic infront with either doctor beside. Amelia pulled my legs to and through.

Backwards and forwards till I felt some tinglings in my legs again, "It feels tingling and fizzy in my legs." I whispered, pulling my leg forward slowly, I took one step forward, "That's it, I've got you." Travis smiled at me, whispering support in my ear. Taking another step, I fumbled as my leg gave way and I landed on the floor, my knee tingling with my shoulder fuzzing.

"Dammit!" I screamed giving up, collapsing on the floor as Travis tried to catch me, slamming my hands on the floor in anger, immediately regretting it as pain shot up my shoulder. "Fucking Shit!" Sobbing in Travis's arms, while he attempted to sooth me and calm me down, Vic took my hand as they tried to stand me back up.
