I feel people grabbing my body and lifting me onto my concrete hospital bed. I hear the squeaking of the bed's wheels as I get moved down an otherwise silent corridor and into a new room. The way here was spooky, no one was to be heard, it seemed so ghostly that I am beginning to think all the patients died. That means I'm gonna die! If they weren't looked after well than how can I be sure I will?! I grip onto the side of my bed in fear so fiercely that I snap one of my finger nails, it took me 5 weeks to grow to grow them but right now I couldn't care less. I need to get out of here now! Ouch! One of the doctors has stabbed a syringe into my arm and is taking my blood. Now they're leaving and I'm left alone in this small room, it's even gloomier as this one hasn't got a window and the only table is covered in sharp needles and weird colored liquids. And in the corner of the dimly lit room is a wheelchair, bingo! Now I can get to the Award ceremony in time!

I lift myself out of the bed and immediately fall onto the floor. Hopefully no one heard me or else I'll never get out! Crawling, or grabbing onto the carpet and pulling myself forwards, I manage to lift myself into the wheelchair. Here we go, wait I have no idea where I'm going! My phone and belongings are in another room down the corridor, I'll never find them! I push the lever forward, the next thing I know is that my racing car shoots our the door and I find myself in the echoing corridor again. Everything's so grand here, sparkling white walls and a soft cream carpet, but it's just so boring. Every inch of this building is identical to the next, no flaking pain or different decor, except from the white flowers which are only visible by the stems and leaves as they seamlessly disappear, blending into the walls. This is making it a lot harder for me, but luckily there are windows into the rooms. I am getting really bored and depressed from the lack of colour and I have only been here (or awake here for) a few hours.

Aha, my phone and bag! I can see them in my old room! I shake the doorknob violently and I fall face first onto the floor as the door swings open and the wheelchair falls down, crushing my body. I heard a crunching sound from my back and now I'm trying my hardest not to scream out in pain and reveal my location. Releasing myself from the grasp of my heavy wheelchair, I pull onto the hospital bed and drag myself next to my old bedside table. I stare up at the ceiling, as this is the only position I can be in, and feel around for my phone. Got it! Okay, according to my phone I am in the Hotel's hospital! I only have to go to the end of the corridor and down the lift to be outside the hotel. Oh no, only 10 minutes left until the awards start! My eyes are soaking wet by now and tears drip off my chin, my back feels like it's a snapped twig. I can't move it or sit up so I have no choice but to give myself carpet burns to get to the chair.

Once I manage to get onto the chair I look at myself on my phone, I look a mess! I don't have that long so I think I will only brush my hair and wipe my face, no time for makeup now! Right, only 6 minutes! I zoom down the corridor and repetitively press the elevator button, then get into the stylish box and begin to move. Now time to sneak past the doctors in by the entrance, I decide to throw my bronzer and it creates a massive orange cloud! I dash out of the door but can't help feel bad for the person who has to clean it up, stop daydreaming Liv, now I've only got 2 minutes! I burst through the diamond hotels doors and the guards must've seem my face, so they didn't stop me. Maybe because I am staying here or because look like I could kill right now! The people in the lobby carry on doing paperwork and so I rush down the hallway until I reach the grand hall, this is it. I push the doors open to reveal a massive theater like room with four levels, and I'm on the top! Then I look down just as Zoe is given a trophy and a massive applause! I am so happy for her! Luckily no one notices me and I take this chance to quickly go to the edge of the room. This way I can see slightly better without being seen myself, omg I'm still wearing the hospital gown! I feel a blush rise upon my cheeks as I realise that half of my body is visible to about 9000 people! I quickly grab a baggy jumper out of my backpack and slip it on without creating attention. Oh how this failed, my phone has to fall out of my bag and smash into a million pieces, sending the noise echoing around the room as shattered glass flies in every direction. The fans stop clapping, the presenter stops in mid trophy handing, then everyone turns around and 9000 pairs of eyes are angrily glaring at me. The perfect word to describe this; death stare. I become dizzy and my throat closes up, I try to explain why I am so stupid but I can't so I try to run, but instead crash to the ground as my spine crumbles like a cookie. I was so overwhelmed with Zoe winning that I forgot all about it! Now I'm screaming and crying on live tv, half naked with a broken back. No one moves, or helps me, they just stare and some children are pointing and laughing at my pain. Now everyone is talking amongst themselves and still no one saves my life. I let out another scream, but this one is much louder and sounds like a shriek. I just lie there wondering what humanity has come to, I am dying and everyone seems to enjoy that. Nobody likes me, I'm better off dead.

I'm not in physical pain anymore, but tears of sadness drip from my face, and the sentence keeps ringing throughout my head. Nobody likes you, you're better off dead. Not even my friends care for me anymore. I'm surrounded by thousands of people, it's ironic that I feel isolated. But the funny thing is that, I couldn't feel more alone.

Sorry it's a late chapter! To make up I made it an extra long one juuuuust for you! Yeah it's like one in the morning as I'm writing this, I think I drank to much coke at dinner! Anyway tank oo for reading and there will be an update for my other book soon aswel! xx
