I stare at Taya with the most clueless face. I bet it looks hilarious. Then I look at Skyla then to Shawn then back to Taya and so on. Keeping the same funny clueless look. By now everyone is starring at me. My mouth is wide open then everybody starts burtsing into laughter. Taya reaches under her top and pulls out a balloon. ...
Why? Just why? Everyone can't stop laughing while I just stand there still looking clueless. She's not pregnant.

Taya and Skyla are standing next to each other and I full on run at them. I wrap my arms around them to give them the biggest hug. They stop laughing and hug me too. By now I have tears in my eyes.
"I'm sorry..." I say pulling back. They both smile and hug me again. Oookkkkaaaayyyyyy...... I walk over to Cameron and do the little handshake thing we made before I left. I'm surprised I still remember it. He remembers it too. Then Shawn walks over and we do our little handshake kinda thing.

It's funny. Skyla and Taya don't mind. Shawn, Cameron and I are just friends.
"Who's ready to bowel?" Daniel yells. We all look at him. I smile and he reaches out his hand to me. I grab it and we walk to the counter. Skyla, Taya, Cam and Shawn stand behind Daniel and I who are still holding hands. One by one we all say our shoe size.

The girl who is serving us looks like a year old younger than us.
"Last day of school?" She looks at Daniel.
"Yeh." He says. When she hands us our shoes she acts different when she give Daniels his. Then she gives him a flirty smile. Oh how I want to punch her right now. Daniel just gives a smile back as if to say, 'go away I don't care about you.'

When we turn away I put two of my fingers to my eye then point at the girls eyes. She sees and looks at my hand intwined with Daniels. She looks away with the look: 'Darn, he's taken." I shoot her a cheeky smile and she rolls her eyes. We walk to bowling alley 3. We sit down and Daniel sits next to me and so does Taya. Shawn sits next to Taya and Cameron next to Shawn with Skyla opposite me in between Daniel and Cam.

We put our shoes on. When I sit back up from leaning over my head starts throbbing again. Quietly I whine. Nobody hears me thank goodness.
"I might go get some hotdogs or something for everyone" Shawn says standing up. "What did you guys want?" One by one we all say what we want and he wrights it down before he food bar about 8 meters from us. I stand up to go choose a bowling ball. When I do my head starts throbbing more.
"Are you ok?" Daniel holds my hand. I nod and walk to the bowling ball rack. He helps me choose the right one and he chooses one for himself. Everybody else does too. We wait for Shawn to start the game and after five minutes, he comes back with a tray of food and drink. He puts our food on the table before grabbing a bowling ball.

After the game

The game finishes and I return my shoes. My headache is worse and I'm freezing and hot at the same time. I'm sneezing and coughing. It's awful. Skyla won but only because Cameron helped her with every throw because she was terrible. Shawn came second then Cameron then Daniel, Taya then me. I'm terrible at this but then again I've quietly been suffering a migraine the whole time. No one has seemed to notice. I chuck my rubbish in the bin and grab my bag.
"Did you wanna stay over tonight?" I say to Skyla and Taya.
"Sorry, I have horse riding." Taya replies.
"I have netball." Skyla also says.
"Oh ok then." I give them a hug. "I love you guys and I am so sorry for leaving you."
They both smile. Then we let go of each other. The boys are already halfway between us and the door. They are trying to pin each other down to get first to the door. It's pretty funny.

We all get out side and just as I'm about to get in Daniels car, I hear a gun shoot. I look around and see Someone fall to the ground. We all look up from the cars we were about to get in. I see The person first and I run right over to them.
"Taya, come on. Stay with me!" I say kneeling next to her and grabbing her hand. I look to her chest, her top is full of blood. Shawn runs over as fast as he can and kneels down opposite me next to Taya. He grabs her other hand.
"Shawn!" She smiles.
"Yeh?" He whispers with tears filling up his eyes. How can he see?
"I l-l-love yo-u..." She looks at me then to him and her eyes close.
"No!" I yell. Shawn breaks with his cheeks red and full of tears. I can't cope when I see a guy crying. I rests his head on Taya's stomach. I burst into tears and hold my face in my hands. Skyla kneels next to me crying as well. Cameron and Daniel have tears falling down there cheeks but you can tell they are trying so hard not to cry. Eventually they both break and start crying too.

Then we hear another gunshot. I fall to the ground with a wave of pain filling my stomach. Someone moves me so I lay on my back staring at the sky. Then I see Skye. Daniel. I have trouble breathing in. Skyla sits in between Taya and I. Shawn now crying even more. Daniel is now basically like Shawn. A wreck. Cameron well, he's the same as everybody else but he tries to comfort Skyla. I slowly turn my head to see Taya. She looks at me with her lifeless body. She doesn't move. She's d-de I can't say it. I grab her hand. Cold as ice. Then I look at Skyla she looks at me and cries even more. I hear sirens in the distance.

Then my eyes turn to Daniel. He stares at me with his big brown eyes and his hair in his face. I push his hair out of his way and smile. He tries but can't show a smile back. I lay there. Then I see lights and a vehicle. Daniel lifts me and another wave of heat hits me. I groan really loudly and press my hands to my stomach. Then I feel a soft cushion underneath me. I realise I've been put on one of those beds that go in an ambulance. I have know idea what they are called.

My vision is kind of fuzzy. Daniel sits next to me in the ambulance. He holds my hand tight. I think this is it. It can't end like this. I only just got to hang out with everyone after six months and now Taya is... Well. You know! And I feel like dying right now. I'm only 16! I can't go. I put my hand on the back of Daniels neck and pull him to me pressing his lips to mine. Our kiss last seconds before he slowly pulls away. I smile at him and he manages a smile back.
"Stay strong." I tell him. He has a confused yet depressed look on his face.

I make a heart with my hands which he smiles at. Then I close my eyes.........
