Bam! I hit my locker after some jock pushed me out of his way. I was too focused on Isabella A. Charlotte, the girl that stole my heart. I see her every day during English and across from my locker her and her friends hang out. I talked to her once before, her friends are mostly made up of the jocks and cheerleaders. RING! The bell screamed in my ear as I shut my locker to get to biology and when I looked up over to where their where and they where gone. I ran to class hoping not to be late to class. Then I bumped into Isabella and she just looked dizzily up at me. I looked down at her and helped her with her books and she looked at me with that adorable smile.

" I'm so sorry, I wasn't watching were I was going, sorry I made you late for class," she was speaking so fast I almost didn't understand what she was saying. I just stood there with a stupid grin on my reddening cheeks. The plain white halls seemed to be caving in on the two of us but I only felt them caving in on me. Then I realized I was having a freak panic attack and I was hoping she wouldn't notice as my face turned bright red like a ripe tomato. She turned her head slightly to the right side and I saw a few piercing in her perfect size ear. All of a sudden my legs gave out and I hit the cold cement white floor. She stood up and asked me if I was okay but no words came to my mouth. She ran down the blank halls which grew darker and darker as I suddenly felt my eyelids grow heavy and the last thing I saw was Isabella running toward me with the big lady that was the school nurse. As my eyes grew dark I felt her velvet soft hands against my sweaty red skin. Muffled words was the lasting thing I heard before the world went dark.

As I awoke I was in a plain white doctors office. All I could hear was the loud beeping noise from the heart monitor. My pounding head was replaying what had happened. Isabella running toward me with the nurse, it kept replaying in my burning head. Her expression looked worried as if she cared. Then I heard a small voice but didn't see any one. I looked once more but then a tall nurse walked in with a bright smile on her face when she seen that I was up and well. She held her old wood clip board close to her buttoned up chest. Her books still on the dirty floor as she ran to help me. The blonde nurse checked my IV as I relived the same thing that happened in the chilled hallway. Worry struck her face as I hit the cold cement with my spinning head. The busy nurse stood still for a split second and turned her thin head toward me.
" How are you feeling? Can I get you anything? You look pale, are you warm enough? Are you hungry? Do you know where you are?" The nurse stood there with a inpatient look on her pale face. She waited for me to reply to the annoying questions she had asked but no words came out my dry mouth. Her expression didn't change so I just forced myself to answer her questions.
"Yes I'm fine and I know who I am. Thank you." She raised one of her eyebrows as if she didn't believe me but then started to head for the plain oak door.

Before the door shut someone walked in. I sat back up to see if another nurse had walked in, but to my surprise it was Isabella with a small enveloped card. As she walked in I watched the way she moved, so graceful and full of life. She was wearing a beautiful white summer dress with cute ruffles. It complimented her rosy cheeks and red flowing hair that was gorgeous. She had a natural beauty but still had mascara and a black wing in eyeliner. Drawing closer to me with every step the clearer her face read she was worried. I gave her a nice small toothy smile to show her I liked her company and that I was gonna be fine. Right when she saw my toothy good hearted smile she gave me her adorable slightly crooked smile that made my heart melt like an ice cube on a summer sidewalk. Right then I knew she cared about me even if I didn't mean as much as she means to me I didn't care. I meant something to her, I tried to get up but when I leaned to foward my head spun and felt it weighed a million pounds. My body through itself against the uncomfortable hospital bed and pain struck my hurting face and I knew she could see that right away.
"Oh my god are you okay?! You should get rest. I can leave and visit another time. I'll go get a nurse from th-
" No I'm fine. I want you to stay," I said as I cut her off and flashed my fake smile to hide the pain under this fake mask of joy. The same smile she gave me early returned to her blushing face. My mind raced as she came closer to me and sat on the hard cot like bed beside me. Just inches away, I could see her way better now. I could tell she had been crying cause her eyes were pink and swollen. I couldn't stand the urge to ask what I meant to her. I needed to know and I felt so our of place but I had to other I would have driven myself crazy that I would never mean anything to the girl of my dreams. I remember the first time I knew she was perfect. She walked in class as the new girl, everyone stared at here. She was gorgeous, her red hair was braided down the side and she was wearing the most amazing dark green sun dress that made her light green eyes pop. I forgot how to breath when I looked at how beautiful she was and as teacher introduced her I knew I would never forget that moment.
"Isabella can I ask you a question?" My voice shook as I spoke, she could tell I was nervous. Her wonderful eyes were gentle and kind. She nodded her head and her magnificent hair bounced as she did. I took a deep breath and tried not to tense up, which just made it worse when I met her eye gaze.
"What do I mean to you? What does my existence mean to you?" After I asked her I searched her breath taking eyes for my life answers. Taking a deep breath I could see her chest rise and fall in perfect harmony as mine. She quickly wrapped her arms around me and in my ear whispered," everything I could want in a best friend," a smile came across both our restless faces. I immediately felt safe as if she was protecting me with her love from the dark and scary world around us.
