  "You're stupid." A punch connects with my face and I fall to the ground. Snake picks me up and pulls me away from Devin's harmful fist. Snake wraps his hands around my waist and spins me to turn and look at him. He kisses me and pulls me even closer and then smacks my butt.

  "You're sexy." He says. A voice entirely not like mine comes out of my throat.

"Heyo!" It sounds like Jane's voice. All of a sudden I hear a gunshot. I fall to the ground and then another gunshot can be heard then another. Im shot in my right arm and then my thigh and then Snake falls next to me. He grabs my hand and kisses it.

"You're sexy."  He repeats.

Then someone punches me randomly and I see Devin. He lifts me up off of the ground and puts his arms on my waist. We then randomly slow dance and the pain in my arm and thigh disappear.

Devin melts away and then my dad appears. He then puts a gun in my hand an teaches me how to shoot straight.

Jane sneaks up behind me and grabs my arm. Pulling me away from my dad and to my bedroom. We sit on my bed talking about how I like Jackson Bote. My mom knocks on the door and brings me a card. It says: "You're useless altogether."

Will comes into my bedroom and takes me to the movies and talks about how we can no longer do this when he goes to college. I laugh and playfully hit his arm and the people in the theater tell us to 'shut up'.

Im in the middle of the street riding my skateboard when a car comes speeding by and almost hits me. I jump off my skateboard and land in the alley. My dad, my mom, Jane, Will, Devin and Snake all appear. They start pushing me and saying crap about me. My dad pushes me into the alley wall and it melts. I fall back and land on glass. Snake pushes me on the ground and the glass disappears and I land in water. I try and swim to the top but I sink faster than I can swim. I grasp for anything but I just keep sinking. Everyone above the water repeats, "You're useless." "I was hoping you died in the alley." "I'll make sure you don't have a nose to breathe through." I CANT breathe. I sink lower and lower and everything starts to blur......

"NO!" I yell waking up from my sleep. It was a dream. It was a dream. It was a dream. Jane grabs my hand.

"It's alright." She coos.

   "When can I leave the hospital?" I ask. I don't want to stay here a minute longer.

I slip back into a deep sleep.

Jane pulls me out of the water and I choke out water.

  "When can I leave here?"

"Never."
