Beyond Her Beauty

Chapter five- What happens now?

Chapter 5

^^^^^^^

I really am going to die.

Right now two of the footballers were holding my arms back so I couldn't move while James kicked me in the tummy.

"Urg!" I crude in pain as he punched me in the jaw. I felt blood drip down my face.

"You... do-don't ha-have to do thi- this!" I exclaimed with my bloody mouth, every time I tried to speak my jaw would burn in pain.

Finally, James and his buddy's had gone and left me on the ground... I was a bloody mess. I managed to pull myself up by using the tree as support. I spat out some of the blood that was in my mouth.

My whole body hurt, those guys sure know how to batter someone.

I tried to walk but I winced at every step I took. I couldn't cope so I just slid down the tree, what was I suppose to do now? I couldn't just sit here, could I?

Who could I call to help me? I couldn't call Ashley, I don't wanna reck her party and as much as we don't like each other she will still worry a lot about this. I know who I can call.

"Hello?" A girls voice said on the other side of the phone.

"Ca-Carly?" I managed to whispered even though it hurt like hell.

"Yes... is that you Conner?" she asked a bit insertion.

"Yer, I-it is." I said managing a smile, I can't believe she recognised my voice. She is my childhood friend, we've been best friends since I was 6 and she was 7. She was the one person who really understood me and we would talk about everything, even though we went to different schools and didn't see each other all the time we were still as close as we have always been.

"Wow stranger, I haven't heard from you in a total 3 day's. Where you been?" She laughed, she was right it had only been 3 days since I had spoken to her but it feels like forever, we usually spoke everyday but I was trying to let her have some space and I was usually the only one who was saying what I did she would just carry on the conversation.

"Umm... I've be-been a b-bit busy. Lis-listen Carly, I nee-need your... help, can you come pick me up?" Every word I said hurt me both fiscally and emotionally- I felt bad for only calling her because I needed help but she was the only one I could ask, because I trusted her and knew she would understand.

"Yes, of course I'll come pick you up! you sound a little of are you okay? Wait, I'll come pick you up right now... where are you?" She rushed as she half-screamed down the phone. Then it struck me... Where was I? How could she pick me up if she doesn't know where I am, how could I have missed that!

"I do-don't know!" I shouted in anger at myself but then let out a wince as my jaw felt a ping of pain.

"Wait... you sound hurt. Are you okay?" she said concerned but the she continued in a more serious tone. "Your phone has GPS, right? "

"Yes, it do-does. Wh-y?" I asked in a whisper, my jaw hurt A LOT more than before. I didn't really understand her question but I answered never the less.

"Great! Just look at you GPS map and tell me where you are. Then I can come pick you up, its simple." Carly beamed in an over happy voice. Carly might be totally crazy but she was seriously a genius.

I was about to praise her and tell her about what a genius she was but I was interrupted by the throbbing in my jaw, I accidentally let out a wince.

" Don't try to talk just find the address and text it to me. That's an order!" She half-shored in a bossy voice. I just smiled but before I could say okay she hung up on me, charming.
