It has been a year since I have been to this school. Rolling through the front doors now, seems like forever ago.

You have probably guessed by now that I am in a wheel chair, and no I wasn't born like this. Cars are the worst invention people ever came up with. More people die from a car crash than a bullet, it is saddening.

However I didn't die but lost the use of my legs. 'Deep breaths... deep breaths, I can get through this.' I chant to myself, it had only been a year since the crash. I was still getting over the emotional pain.

I use the strength in my arms to propel me along. Down the empty school hallway, it is so quiet I can hear myself breathing.

That is when I hear it, the soft hitting of a hand against the lockers. I look up to see a teenage boy, around 18 years old, walking towards me. He has dark sunglasses over his eyes and he is looking straight ahead. He hasn't noticed me yet, I wonder why. He just keeps on walking. I can't remember anyone who looked like him, from when I was here.

I knew everyone, and everyone knew me. I thought most of them were my friends, but I know now they weren't. They just liked me because of athletic ability. I had the track record, as well as the captain of the basketball team, but I lost that once I had been in the crash. None of my team mates even came and saw me, it was like I disappeared.

While I was pondering about that, I hadn't noticed the boy had gotten closer and didn't seem to be stopping. I was about to tell him to stop when... BANG! He had run into my wheelchair, "Watch where you're going!" he snarled, "You have eyes use them!"

"What about your legs?!" I shout back, "You could have gone around me!"

His face showed clearly that he was surprised and shocked at me for yelling at him. He then took a deep breath in, slowly releasing it.

"I'm sorry..." he was about to continue when I cut him off,

"I am down here, and I don't want your sympathy." I said to him looking up at him. He lowered his head to meet my eyes.

"I wasn't going to give you sympathy, I know how it feels."

The side of my lips tilt up, "What's your name?" I ask him.

"Guy, Guy Pierce." His lips tilt up a little too, "What's yours?"

"Sadie, Sadie Farworth."

A/N: I might add some more. I didn't know how I should end it. If you would like more for this chapter, please comment on it.
