I open my eyes to see light shining in through the window. When I try to get up I yelped at at the pain i felt on one whole side of my body, and my head is pounding in pain so I flop back down. What happen last night? I looked around the room I'm in MY room. I keep looking and see Ryder on the floor sleeping.
"Ryder! What happen? Why are you on the floor? Why am I in pain?" I look at him, getting up off the floor and coming to sit next to me. I notice he has a split lip and a black eye!
"You don't remember?" He asked pulling me to a sitting position. I notice I'm wearing a dress. It all came back to me the party, the guy, the alcohol, and... Ryder. I was shaking in fear tears threatening to come out. Ryder noticed and brought me to his lap petting my hair and whispering soothing thing in my ear.
"It's okay Scar, the guy is no longer going to be causing trouble, you're okay now." I start to calm my breath and heart beat.
Everything is okay now.
We sat there in that position for what seemed for ever. I didn't care or want to know what happened after I past out last night. I looked at my clock and saw it was 12:00. SCHOOL!
"We're late for school! Let's get dressed and go!" I say jumping up ignoring the pain that shot in my whole body.
"It's okay, mom and dad already called and excused us for the day, but dad is taking me to the hospital to check nothing is broken from last night."
I just nodded and got under the covers. Ryder left my room and got ready. My eye lids felt heavy so I closed them and fell asleep.
*RYDER'S POV*
I ran to my room after I talked to Scarlett and threw on some grey baggy sweats, light blue shirt, and my favorite vans.
"Dad! You ready or what?!" I yelled as I'm going down the stairs I heard shuffling coming from up stairs I saw my dad walking down the stairs. He had light brown hair like me but he already had grey strands. He was wearing brown worker shoes, plain jeans, and a white tee.
"Ya, let's go." He said going outside I was right behind him and hopped into his grey truck. I didn't bother to buckle up, neither did he so we just left. On our way there I was looking out my side window and saw trees blend together as we picked up speed. I looked to the road and saw a car swerved right in front of us.
I only saw some parts of the car accident, to scared to keep my eyes open I kept on closing and opening them.
Glass was being shattered and one hit me right in my arm. Next thing I know I'm going through the front window and when i look over to my dad he has blood coming out of his mouth, he's no longer moving!
I could feel the rocks under me, stabbing my whole body as I crash on the rocky road blood started to form a puddle under me. I see blood coming from my head and I look up to see our truck crashed with a much bigger, almost monster truck. My eyes kept closing. Memories flashed in my head of my past. I kept seeing Scarlett and me when we were young.
I have to stay awake for my mom and Scarlett..... Scarlett she needs me!
That's the last thing I thought then darkness is all I saw.
(Truck after car accident at the beginning)*SCARLETT PROV*
I was asleep when I feel someone slap my shoulder. I jumped up my shoulder turning red, stinging. I scan my room and see my mother laying on the ground. She's screaming and crying but from what, I quickly get up to her side.
"Mom! What's wrong? Does something hurt?" I ask as I put my hands on her shoulders. SLAP! My head now facing the other direction my cheek is stinging and you can see the mark of her hand start to form.
I back away shocked.... My mom just hit me. I touch the wall and watch as my mom slowly looks at me tears running down her face. She has never hit me before, what on earth happen!
"YOU LITTLE SLUT, THEY DIED BECAUSE OF YOU!" She yelled at me as she lunged at me with all her force, slamming me into the wall. She grabbed my hair and threw me to the floor. I was going to start to scream but my air got knocked out as felt her slam her foot into my stomach. She kept hitting, scratching, kicking, and slapping.
By the time she got tired she knelt down, I was still on the ground rolled up into a ball a. She grabbed my hair pulled my face up and whispered in my ear.
"Your father, MY husband and your brother MY son died going to the hospital. This is all your fault!" Her voice was threatening and practically a growl, she slammed my head onto the ground and left my room.
Everything hurt to much to try to get up from the ground so I just stayed there rolled up into a ball on the ground, crying. Three thoughts kept coming into my mind and I could never forget what they were.
They are dead, this IS my fault, my life will never be the same.
I felt numb my whole body my head I couldn't feel anything anymore.
