A story of forever

Chapter one, in which i get hurt, multiple times

I woke up this morning, stumbled out of bed and somehow fell down the stairs! Clutching my arm in pain, I cursed under my breath as I wondered if this day could possibly get any worse. As I walked back upstairs to get ready for school, I heard my mom say that I had 15 minutes till she was gonna have to leave to take me to school. "Yes mama I'm coming!" I said as I went back inside to do my hair. And call my boyfriend. Stefan Heron is the greatest boyfriend in the entire world. He's 5 foot nine, built like a quarterback and he plays the French horn. I love to attend concerts he has. "Heya love!" He said. His blue eyes are as deep as the ocean and oh how I wanna swim in them. "Hey, daydreamer? Earth to sussie!" He said. Oh good lord, how long have I been drooling like a dummkopf? "Uh ya? Sorry babe I'm fine" I said, thinking about the next time I can sleep. I've been up since 2 am! Wait, I'm not allowed to say that. Oh, might as well. I'm a part of the Scottish resistance. There's a tyrant in my country and she needs to be stopped. I have some family in Germany. Maybe they can help. "Ouch! Ugh!" I yelled in frustration. "I bought these trousers last week HOW are they already too small!?" I yelled in anger. This is so annoying! "Mum do you have anything in yer closet I can borrow??" I ended up needing to borrow an ugly green dress of my mum's, putting on a belt as well. Now I need to get me wee behind at school. I grabbed my wallet, headphones with noise canceling and a fidget and left. "Oi! Sussie!" Said one of the wee assholes that love to take the Mickey outta me. "Ay?!" I said, taking my headphones off my head as they began to crowd around me. "Bout time ye learn a wee lesson," said the ringleader. Och. "Oi! Scram ye wee beggars!" Said my best friend. She's a doll. "Let's get to school, ay?" Said my friend, Parvata. She's 19, like me and super nice. Her family are from Rajasthan, a state in India, but she was born here. That isn't important though, I need to study for my lesson today. "The square root of 476 is 16" I muttered to myself. "Heya love!" Said my boyfriend. "Heya baby," I said. He's so amazing. He's the best thing that's ever happened in my life. "Mum!!!! Can we have an Irn Bru here please??" I shouted down the stairs to my mum, louder than thunder. "Sure lass, you lot behave! No doors closing!" She said, to my chagrin. It's alright. He took my hand and held me close while we watched TV. Mary Poppins returns. She's a brilliant person, and so is Lin Manuel Miranda. He's my favourite playwright. Stefan was playing with my hair when my phone rang. "Hello?" I said before a strange voice said something to me. "You will die by the end of the year," said a strange person. "Sorry lad you've got the wrong number," I said then hung up. "Who's zat??" Asked Stefan. "Some bugger saying I'll knock it by year's end," I said, a note of fear in my voice. "Ah, zat is a blasted dummkopf," he said, with me having a confused look on my face. "Oh babe, Dummkopf is German for idiot or dumbbutt" he clarified. "Thanks love!"

Earth to sussie! Everything alright? Asked Parvata. "I'm alright girl," I said. Then my phone rang again! "Girl! You know that your phone is supposed to be silent in school!!" She whisper-shouted, freaking out; like normal. She has social anxiety, and freaks out when she does something against school rules too. Those are unrelated. That's alright, I'm alright. "Ay? Sorry, hello?" I said into my phone. It's the same flipping voice! "You will die by year's end" and it's only October! Ugh, now I need to get a Halloween costume. I don't need an instruction manual to see if it's that bad. He's pretty awesome, my boyfriend is, for what brought me nuggets. He had to go to basically Timbuktu for it! Brrring brrrring brrring! That's the fire alarm! Why in blue blazes is the fire alarm going off!?

The fire alarm will not stop ringing! That is so stupid, they should have it be visual. Like "hey the building is going up in smoke, so can you get out?" I mean honestly! It can make people feel deaf sometimes! It's just a drill though, so let's go to the evac spot. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6" to 30; my teacher counted. "We just need to pray for the children," said old Mrs Chang. Oh no-no-no. This isn't a drill. "Teacher! I need the restroom!" I yelled out like I was a child again. "Go with a fireman child," said the teacher. I gotta get outta here, see where Stefan is. I need to go now! Hmm now, what period did he have? 3rd, and that for him is...Mrs Rosabella! She's a good lady but doesn't pay attention at all. "Hello madam rosabella! We need to get out of the classroom, the building is on fire. Let's go, guys! NOW!" I made sure all the kids came out with the good teacher, and also kissed Stefan. "Baby? Are you alright?" He asked me. "Yeah I'm fine, why wouldn't I be fine?" I asked. "Cause your face is half red" I heard him say before my head started pounding. He ran to me, and I went to walk, but I fell. He held me in his lap and screamed for a fireman. Ugh, why is he so loud? And at that moment I passed out. So as it turns out, I had a half-burned face from the fire. Well, that was dumb.

In the hospital
"What's going on? Where's my daughter?'' Mama asked. "Ma'am, your child is alright, she had severe swelling to her face and stomach and she inhaled a lot of smoke. She was in a lot of pain but she will be alright" said the person. How can they tell Mum I may be dead like it's okay!? Gr, when I get out of here I'm fixing tae sue the bejesus outta the blasted lads. But I'm fine, it just hurts like the fires of hell on my face. "Hey baby, it's all okay baby," said mama. What happened? One of my eyes has white stuff all over it. "Mama, why does my face have white stuff all over it?? Did the doctors do that?" I asked, slurring my words. "Yes they did it, but it's to protect the skin that's after burning," she said. "Is my eye okay??" I asked. I can deal with having burn scars but a glass eye!? "Yeah, your eye is fine lass." "Mummy is Stefan here??" I asked, not realising that he is okay. "No, but he's fine, lass. He's with his dad" she said. "Where's Parvata??" I asked. I don't know where she is, she was with the other kids so she should be okay though. "Right here lass," she said. "P! Your alright lass?" "Aye, but you look 'orrible!"

Finally home for good! My room hasn't changed a bit! I remember that they saluted me when I left. Brilliant! "Hey baby, are you in?" Asked Stefan. "Mhm," I groaned in tiredness. "Well hello sleepy baby, I missed you," he said. "Even with a burned face?" I asked. "Especially with a burned face," he said, kissing me. He's so amazing!!
