Long Lasting Lyrics | UNDER EDITING

Black

After my two week suspension I shuffled into school nervously. My wrist felt completely dead. I never saw a doctor.

"Hey Roxanne!" I smiled.
"OMG JULY! Why did you beat Carmen to the ground?"
"I didn't Roxanne! It was the other way round!" I wailed.
"Oh so that's why she got suspended instead of you right?" Roxanne smirked, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh crap." I thought.

The day went slow and at lunch time I walked into detention with a grey face.
"Why so glum?" August smiled, when I walked in.
"Oh nothing." I sighed, he had just asked one of the most stupid question in the world. "Ms Parks gave me an extra two week detention so I'll be here until you're months up." He sighed deeper.
"Why?"
"Because I tried to stick up for you."
"Oh August! Why?"
He just went red.
"Also I w..wanted to give you this." He said handing me a CD in a case.
"Thank you." I smiled.
"MS SUMMERS! MR CANTWELL! SIT DOWN!"

After detention I had English. I was next to Carmen Smalls. I had one huge problem other than Carmen. It was that I was right handed and now my right wrist was senseless. I tried to write with my left. My writing was a mess. Carmen kept snickering at me.
"Is your wrist sore?"
"Oh just shut the hell up." Would be my reply. She would just laugh.

After school I walked into detention. Ms Parks was half an hour late so August and I sat together talking.

Without warning I stared sneezing. I went down to get a tissue but crumpled into a ball with the pain from my wrist. And then I felt trapped. It couldn't breathe. My wrist ached and the pain spread across my body. My mouth went dry and I was sweating. I couldn't control my own body. I couldn't hear August properly. I tried to get up but the pain in my wrist was so sore that I crumbled into a ball again and then everything went black.
