The life of Amanda Rae

Who is NRMS? #17

I go back to my room after leaving Tammy's room. I put my phone on the charger, I set my alarm for 8:30 in the morning. I go brush my teeth, put my pajamas on and go say goodnight to the family.

I crawl into bed and sleep invades my body.

8:30 the next morning.

I wake up with my head throbbing, my stomach churning, and I feel like a piece of crap.

I slowly get out of bed and look at my reflection in the mirror.

"Gross" I muttered under my breath, causing my throat to tighten, and a cough to escape.

"Ow, fuck" I take my right hand and rub it around my neck; soothing it. I go to brush my teeth and I go down stairs.

"Mornin' sleepy head" My dad says.

"Mornin'"I manage to croak out, my voice sounding cracked and hoarse.

"You okay this morning? You sound a bit on the icky side"

"And you look a bit on the icky side as well" Tammy says, coming down the stairs; smirking.

"Oh ha--ow" My hands shoot up to my throat again and I squeeze my eyes shut.

"I'll go get you some medicine and you go rest Mandy moo." Tammy says, kissing me on the cheek.

I give her a nod and go back upstairs to my room, checking my phone.

One missed call from 'Pat your ass'

I giggle a bit because of his contact name and I text him instead.

I shut my eyes, and sleep takes over me again.

******************

I wake up with someone shaking me continuously, causing my eyes to jolt open.

"What the?" I mutter out.

"Amanda, you gotta wake up, something is wrong with your sister" My dad says frantically, causing my heart to skip a beat.

"What, what happen?" I shoot out of bed and my heart keeps pounding.

"Be ready in two minutes, we're leaving for the hospital" My dad says with a cold tone and slams my door shut, causing me to jump back.

I shake while putting on a pair of black leggings and Patrick's sweatshirt. I throw on a pair of random black shoes, I grab my phone and I run down stairs, my dad waiting by the door for me.

We both run outside to the car and we start heading our way to the hospital.

I send Patrick a text, letting him know what happened so far.

Something happened to Tamantha and we are on our way to the hospital right now. Please get back to me as soon as possible!

We get to the hospital in the span of 2 minutes due to my dad's frantic driving.

We both run inside and see my mother in tears.

"Mom, mom, what happened!!" I yell, ignoring the constant pain in my throat.

"Tam..Tammy." That's all she managed to say before more tears started to run down her face.

"What happened to Tammy? Is she hurt?" My heart skipping a beat.

"She...she's dead." My mother says, looking right into my eyes.

My lips part slightly, my head is spinning, tears are pouring out of my eyes, my hands are shaking and I start seeing spots of blue.
