Me and Grey haven't seen each other since last school year due to her parents who are divorced, she's never home. After about 2 minutes of "I missed you", we talked about how our summer went. "Man! I went to Myrtle beach for like 2 weeks over the summer!" Grey explained. "Well.. because my dad lost his job, we didn't have much money, so we couldn't go on vacation this year" I said solemnly looking at the blue and white splattered bus floor. "Aw.. I'm sorry about th-" I interrupted her "Don't apologize, it's not your fault. I still had an "OK" summer." Grey smiled and gave me a hug. "Maybe next year we can go on vacation together!" I could almost see the lightbulb above Grey's head. "Yeah!.. Thats an amazing idea! But.. we shouldn't get our hopes up because last time we did, we didn't get to go to that one beach." Once again I said with a gloom look. I smiled and looked at Grey but to see her face filled with shock, almost as if it was in slow motion, as she screams and points out to the front of the bus I see the huge freight truck speeding the turn and almost smashing the bus. The bus driver SLAMMED the brakes, my head bashed off of the seat in front and I blacked out.
Soft beeps fill the quiet room..beep-beep-beep. I had woken up to see a needle in my arm, a bandage on my cheek and on my nose. A doctor walks into the room and smiles. "How are you feeling?" the doctor says with a calm, and gentle voice. "Yeah, I guess I'm ok.. What the hell happened?" I ask with pure curiosity, not minding my language. The doctor chuckled. "Well.. there was a freight truck that was a little bit too fast, and lost balance. The truck had almost smashed the bus you were in, but didn't quite hit it. The bus driver slammed on the breaks and supposedly you ended up bashing your face off the seat." the doctor explained. After hearing that I grew curious. "Is there any others hurt?" I paused "IS GREY HURT? WHERE-" The doctor stopped me from freaking out. "IT'S OK!.. You're the only one who got hospitalized. The others are fine." the doctor said calmly. My heart slowed back to it's normal pace. "When will I be able to get out of here?" I asked. "Either some time tomorrow or late tonight." I sighed with relief. Next thing I noticed was people who were in my class that I never got to go to, came to the hospital with flowers and other things. I saw someone who I didn't think I would see... It's him..
