I sat soberly in science class scribbling curse words onto the surface of my desk I hated science class it was the only thing that could make me say " I'd rather die than do that" the teachers monotone voice drilled its way into my skull but I tried my best to drown him out as his voice gave me a headache that would last for at least an hour after.i pressed my fingers to my temple and groaned softly my head throbbed and I felt like I was about to puke.The world bent around me and I felt light headed.i layer my head down on my arm to rest it and I breathed slowly trying to make the world stop spinning around me.i lied there for what seemed like an eternity.i don't remember hearing the bell ring or that I sat there for about a minute after every one left. I was awoken from my trance by my teacher shaking my shoulder."are you ok?"he asked looking at me with concern in his eyes.i looked at him dazed and confused as I tried to figure out what happened.I know I didn't fall asleep even with my high pain tolerance I could never sleep when I had a headache,it was my one weakness because headaches can be signs of brain damage, it wasn't the pain that kept me awake it was the fear of having some sort of brain injury. "W-what?" I asked brushing a strand of sweaty hair out of my face. The teacher smiled slightly before grinning"you must have fallen asleep.you are such a deep sleeper i thought you might have passed out when the bell rang and you didn't wake up".he knew I was asleep? And he didn't wake me up?The thought of my teacher letting me sleep in class was comical ,he was strict and emotionless.i sat up straight and smiled slightly "y-yeah I've been quite tired lately"I said still shaking off the fog of sleep from my mind."well" he said softly try to get some more sleep from now on"he smiled and patted my shoulder.I got up walking awkwardly out of the classroom pushing past multiple groups of kids who huddled around each other's lockers trying to socialize in the loud hallways.
