Not So Normal

Chapter 15

I get into the car.

"Hey!"

"How was the party?"

"Fun! Did you have a good night?"

"Yes, don't worry I didn't drink too much."

"Good. I'm so tired. But Stella and I are friends now, and Chase and Charlotte are dating."

"Cool, I'm tired too. I'm going to bed when me get home."

"Me too. Going back to Parker's in the morning. He needs help with math homework and picking up from the party."

"Sounds good. What time you going over?"

"9am. I know that you and I are going to dinner at 5pm. Read your mind."

"Speaking of that, did you tell Parker?"

"No. Should I?"

"Whatever you think."

By then we were home.

I changed and put on the comfiest clothes I have.

"Happy birthday Pumpkin."

"Love you."

"Love you too."

Then it was quiet.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wake up and it's 820. I jump out of bed.

There is a note on my nightstand by my charging phone.

'Morning. I went to run errants. Have a good time with Parker.'

I throw on jeans, and my pink sweater that reads California in white letters. Father and I went there 2 summers ago to visit his sister.

I throw my hair in a pony tail and put on black mascara. I also grab my phone, backpack, and an apple and walk out the door. I DON'T like to be late, and it takes 15 minutes to walk to Parker's.

By the time I finish my apple, I'm at his door step, and it's 901.

KNOCK KNOCK

"Hey babe. Sorry I'm late."

He kisses me on the lips for a few seconds.

"It's okay. Did you get enough sleep?"

"Yeah, are your parents home?"

"Nah. They will be home later though."

"Okay, you wanna pick up from the party first?"

"Yes please."

He turns on the radio and we begin to clean.

I sing along to Clarity by Zedd.

"Your voice is like an angle."

"Thanks, can I tell you something."

"Sure, what's up?"

"You can't tell anyone though okay?"

"Promise."

"Okay, when I was little, I had a brain tumor and I went through multiple radiation treatments. And well, I became Telepathic!"

" What?!?"

At that moment he tripped on a rug, and fell to the ground, hard.

"PARKER!" I scream and to him. I shake him, and shout to him. No response! O begin to burst out tears.

I pull out my phone and dial 911

"911 what's your emergency."

"Hello, my boyfriend feel and hit his head. He's not responding to me."

"Okay listen carefully. Keep trying to wake him, but please give me further information."

"Okay."

The phone call last 10 minutes. The nice lady talked to me the whole time. When the ambulance came, they came inside, and got him in safely.

"Will he be okay?"

"Yes. Would you like to ride in the ambulance too?"

"Yes please."

I get in. I take his hand, and call his mom.

"Everything will okay Parker. I love you!" I kiss his hand and continue to cry the whole way there.
