Ivi and I have 1st period together. She is my 2nd BFF. I walk into the gym to be greeted by the familiar sweat smell.
Devin is already out and shooting hoops.
I walk into the locker room where Ms. Thatcher is blowing bubbles and Taylor Swift is blasting through the speakers.  Ivi is putting on her sneakers and Sammy is tying her hair back. I open my locker to put my binder in and go outside to the gym where me and Ivi play badmition.
Ms. Thatcher blows the wistle and I head over to the wall. I wham my back up against the mat on the wall. I hear Opal's voice from a distance. It's a scream. Ivi looks at me. I grab her wrist and we dart out the big red doors to the hallway. Ms. Janik is is running out of her room. That's Opals class.
We nervousless step into the room. Opal eyes are dead looking. I shake her in hope of an answer. A stretcher comes to take her and hop into to it. A medic pushes me off.
Ivi steps in, "Let her go, they are connected at the neck." Ivi rarely talks.
I run after Opal and get strapped into a seat in the back of the ambulance. I hold her hand and her eyelashes flicker. I squeeze her hand for a moment right as we reach the hospital. The hospital is filled with children. I notice one skinny as a twig. I whine as I follow Opal down a series of hallways until we reach a room. A doctor comes in and takes one glance at Opal before getting a different doctor.
