I woke up to instantaneous knocking. I rolled out of bed, with a thump I landed face first onto the floor. I crawled to the door and unlocked it then crawled back to my bed before crawling into the sheets again. I finally got comfy and whoever was knocking on my door jumped onto me violently awaking my scream.

"Mom, I am trying to sleep" I screamed, I looked up and saw it wasn't my mom. It was My best friend.

"Hello my precious" she spoke stroking my hair, as if I was a cat

"What" I asked

"We have the trip tomorrow and its 5 o'clock why in the name of the god are you sleeping?" She questioned, What trip.

"What Trip?" I asked

"The ski lodge, all seniors going. Including lover boy" she said poking my heart which was just another place for my boob

"Lisa, that's my boob"

Lisa pulled her hand back in disgust, that's when the bathroom door opening revealing Felicity. She was smiling like she was possessed by the happiest person that has died.

"Get up you need to pack because we are leaving at 12, you have 7 hours" she snapped pulling off my blanket and locking it into the bathroom

"Lisa, I will eat you"

"Come on big nasty giant" she laughed reaching for my hands and pulling me out of the bed

It was Sunday morning/afternoon and I was packing for a trip my mother and father was forcing me to go on 'because I would regret it' as my mother said. 'I was only eighteen when I got pregnant with you and I was unable to go and your father stayed. Your going and that's it'. I'm not saying I definitely wont regret it if I didn't go but Lisa was only going because I was and I didn't want to let my Best friend down. So from the gist of that speech I don't have to go if I get pregnant but I have to find someone who would be willing to stay off of this trip with me which wasn't going to be easy and btw I didn't want to be a eighteen year old pregnatee like my mom. I love my mom but it was way to early for her to have a child.

"Felicity is going to pack for you okay" I heard Lisa say

"Yeah, let me sleep" I muttered, my voice came out hoarse from my previous scream

I don't I realised then what a mistake that would be. I just wanted to sleep and I dint really care what felicity would do. She wont pack me shorts will she? That's when the burning started

I jumped out of the bed and ran into the bathroom, I looked down at my wrist and the number 11 was slowly evolving into a 10. The pain was intense I jumped into the shower and turned it on. The water running down my shoulders, my clothes and slowly onto my wrist. Once the burning stopped I just sat down, allowing the water to run over me. I'm going to die in 10 days, Lets be realistic. What exactly have I done to try and save Nate? Shared a bed? Met his parents?

What have I don't that is useful and could change his entire decision on not to kill himself. I know the articles from Elizabeth said deaths end game was finding the persons true love but I don't know if Nate is capable of love. I wouldn't say I love him or even like him but recently its been different. It's like I like him around.

"Hannah, you okay?" I heard my mother speak through the door

"Can you come in?" I asked

She opened the door and as soon as her eyes connected with mine she closed the door and almost ran over to me. She looked at my hand which was still clutching my wrist. She moved my hand and read the number '10' she looked at me like she knew what I felt.

"I don't think I can handle anything worse than that" I whispered loud enough for her to hear

"I know baby, Hopefully this trip will help you" she spoke softly "Now take these clothes off and take a normal shower" I nodded and she left before giving me a reassuring smile that was award winning

I got back in the shower now allowing the water to drop onto my bare body. Goose bumps spread across my body like a virus sweeping out a nation. I dropped my head back, the water landing directly into my mouth. I grabbed some shampoo and massaged it gently into my scalp, trying to relax which was only helping a little. After I wrapped a towel around my waist I exited the bathroom to have felicity place clothes into my arms and ushering me back into the bathroom.

She gave me skinny jeans and a cami swing top and a grey button cardigan. Once I was dressed I brushed my teeth and dried my hair slightly with a towel, letting it dry naturally. I couldn't be bothered with a hair dryer today.

"You look nice" Felicity smiled

I looked over to Lisa who was looking through one of my folders. Wait, that's the research folder. She looked up confused. I was scanning her face for any other emotion but she was blank except of the confusion.

"What's this?" she asked

Think fast Hannah "For my history paper, I wanted to be different instead of talking about Gods" I answered, I got a believable smile from Lisa who put the folder back by my desk

"Nerd" She laughed

Lisa grabbed my bag of clothes which Felicity packed and headed down stairs. I picked up a pair of converse and slipped them on before leaving my room with Felicity.

I saw my mum and father in the kitchen with their teas and coffee talking to Lisa and Felicity, who occasionally gave small nods.

"What?" I spoke

"Nothing just telling them to be safe" My dad lied

"Bullshit" I laughed

"We are not playing the game" My father replied sternly

"It still applies, What's wrong?" I laughed again

"Just telling them to make sure you have fun" My mother confesses

"And I will" I answered with a smile across my face

"Yeah because lover boy is there" Lisa chirped in

"Lisa" I snapped, my smile dropping

"Who's lover boy?" My Dad questioned

Thanks Lisa! Why don't you tell my dad I drink as well, that will only sweeten the pot.
