Tw: sh00tings, being sh0t and hospitals

Oliver's pov
Im 17. I've been cursed for 17 years. Or my whole life. The whole towns cursed. The most fucked up cruel things happen here. I've done research for years why the fuck this is happening to me. To my family. To my friends but nobody knows. All we know is Lydia sage cursed us thousands of years ago. Im walking to school with my girlfriend kai. She says that the witch is made up and that it's all to blame mental hospitals. We get to school, go to home room and sit. I whisper to her "wanna skip math? I think mr gray has a thing for me or something-" "he totally does!" The bell rings and we go to first period. Math is third. First period I'm working on a project with Amelia my friend since I was 11. Me and her talk about the curse a lot, once 3rd period comes around were in the bathroom. 10:27. We hear the announcement. "We are in a lock down. I repeat we are in a lockdown. There is a unknown person in the building with a gun. Gym door left wing." We're only a few rooms from there. 10:31. The first gunshot. People scream and run. Someone's been shot. 10:32. Another. in the bathroom is Me, kai and neki. Were all in a stall. Were all standing on something that makes it so nobody can see our feet. I whisper"Why's it always the queer kids getting shot.." 10:34 another. The screaming over. They're dead. The person's going room by room getting closer. And closer "we need to go or the next three will be us." Kai whispers. "Can I volunteer?" Neki whispers jokingly. "Not the time.. but shays right." We slowly get down and open the door. We run. We just run. Of course the way where the shooters not at. Then I feel a sting in my leg. A really bad sting. The worse pain in my life and then I hear the sound. 10:38. I was shot why's it always the queer kids getting shot. The fourth person shot. I fall over and lay. I stare at the ceiling. I start getting tired. "Kai.." I mumble then see them. The shooter. Gary. The weird mentally challenged kid that throws tantrum in the hallways and all ways screams for no reason. Gary shot me and 3 other people. More maybe. I lay. Help is coming right? Gary goes to the right wing gym. Away from where kai and neki ran. They're safe. "Kai and neki are safe.. they're safe.." I feel tired like my eyes are heavy. The pains worse and I'm in a puddle of blood. I feel someone shake me. "Oliver!? Oliver!!" Kai.. I need to stay awake for kai.. I manage to keep my eyes open and feel kai start kissing my face all over."kai.." "I'm here just stay awake! Please stay awake!" Amelia runs over. She was about to leave so they could run to the elementary school not too far away. She takes off her socks. Theyre rainbow and go to her knees. She slowly takes out the bullet and I scream. I scream loud. Kai holds my hand as Amelia wraps her long rainbow sock around the bullet hole. Then wraps her second for an extra layer. I hear an ambulance and police. "Oliver I need you to count to 100 so we know you're alive okay?" I start counting. "1..2..3.." while I feel people put me on a stretcher. Its all blurry. "4..5..5...." I start blinking slowly but each time I change rooms. Soon I wake up in hospital. The lights are bright and in my eyes. I sit up and see my legs wrapped up tight. This time Real bandages. Kais sitting on the chair next to me. My mom standing next to her. Dad's a no show I'm guessing. "You're on the news..!" I look the TV "6 people were shot today at Smithtown highschool by Gary mars. 15 year old Sasha dicks was the first victim, shot in the chest. 16 year old Karen William wad the second victim, shot in the side." After reading everyone who died they read the list of 2 survivors they read me last. "The final victim who survived was Oliver Murphy a trans male student in his junior year was shot in his right leg." I mumble"yeah like my whole personality is being trans. Most important thing Abt me.." I get up and grab my crutches. This isn't the first time ive had to use crutches. Were cursed what do you think?
