Chapter 16
The next morning I woke up to the sound of my alarm. It sang "Tied together with a smile" from Taylor Swift. I turned it off and went to shower and dressed in skinny jeans, a pink t-shirt, black hoodie and fluorescent pink converse, I put my hair in a ponytail and added eyeliner, a bit of mascara and lip-gloss. I grabbed my books and ate a cereal bar for breakfast. Then I went to get in my brother's car and we drove off to school. We were talking happily and he started laughing when suddenly the car spun around and we hit something.
I was numb, my head hurt and when I touched it my hand came off with blood, the glass shattered and my legs were covered with them. I tried looking to my brother and didn't found him in the car. With the last of strength I had I tried to get out of the car. But the door didn't move. I screamed his name, but got no answer. Mi phone was crashed and tears were formed at my eyes. Slowly and painfully I drifted off into a total blackness.
Brittany's POV
I was now at my new school. It was lunch time and I went to sit with Jane and Bryan. They were laughing together and something that surprised me was they were holding hands. When I sat down I looked at both of them with one eyebrow arched. Immediately they stop laughing and looked at me with pure happiness in their eyes. I wish I could be as happy as them.
"You tell her" Bryan said.
"Fine...Bri we are together" she said smiling widely and I couldn't help but feel happy and worried at the same time. Worried they would leave me out.
"I'm happy for you two guys!" I said smiling and thought to myself 'Brittany get a hold of yourself you can't be that egoistic'
The final bell rang and I started walking to my new house when I collided into someone.
"Watch where you are going!" the boy yelled at me and I don't know what clicked in me but I got angry and replied.
"What's your problem? You're the one who wasn't watching jerk!" I don't know what got into me, normally I would've said nothing and just walk away but I guess I was tired of getting picked on.
"I'm sorry" he said looking taken aback.
"Whatever" I said and tried to keep walking but he took my wrist and told me.
"My name is Todd, and I'm really sorry I'm just having a bad day, why don't you come with me and eat some ice cream to make it up to you" he said sounding sincere but I'm afraid I had to refuse.
"I'm sorry Todd, but my parents wouldn't like that, maybe another day" I told him and began walking again but he yelled after me.
"What's your name?"
"Brittany!" I yelled back while walking.
I arrived home and went straight to do my homework, when I finished it was already dinner time and I went to help my mom set the table. We ate tacos and then I went to my room. I started writing an e-mail to my dear friend Samantha when my phone started to ring.
"Who could it be at this hour?" I murmured and answered "Hello?"
"Brit! You have to come, it's Sam something happened...she got into an accident please come!" It was Mike and it sounded like he was crying, I immediately got worried and started grabbing some clothes and putting them in a bag.
"Where is she?" I asked the tears blurred my vision.
"Saint Peter Hospital"
"I'm on the way" I said hanging on and going to my parents' room.
"Mom! Dad! Oh God!" I said already crying.
"What's wrong sweetie?" my mother answered.
"It's Sam, she got into an accident, I know we're not good in economic terms but I really need to see her what if...what if..." I couldn't finished the sentence, no I wouldn't let myself think that.
"Don't worry Brittany, we'll find enough money for a passage Samantha is really important to all of us"
"Thanks mom!" I said hugging her tightly.
That same night I was in a plane in its way to Florida. I was sickly worried about Sam and couldn't even fall asleep. After the 10 hour fly I couldn't cry more, my tears were dry and I could barely talk. I got down the plane and texted Mike I was already here. I hurried outside and grabbed a cab.
Right now I'm in front of the hospital but I couldn't bring myself to enter, what if she is really bad? I don't think I could handle really bad news. But she is my best friend and right now she needs me. So I took a deep breath and went inside. I asked the clerk for her room and she gave me a pitiful look. That definitely says something grave happened to her. I was getting close to where her room was when Mike tackled me into a hug. And I couldn't help but let the tears fall. When he released me I asked the question that has been bothering me since he told me she had an accident.
"How is she?"
"She's not good" he said looking down.
"I know she's not good! If she were I wouldn't be here! What does she have?" I asked impatiently.
"Well, why don't you sit first" he offered and I just looked at him with my eyebrows raised. "Okay don't sit" he said sighing.
"Can you please tell me?"
Just when he opened his mouth to answer Sam's mom saw me and came running to me and hugged me crying.
"I'm so glad you're here! I know she really needs you" she said between sobs and even though I looked I didn't find Derek in the waiting room so I asked:
"Where's Derek?" That made Sam's mom cry harder.
"He was also involved in the accident" Mike answered and I could feel my eyes beginning to sting, since Sam and I were best friends since kindergarten he was like a brother to me.
"How are both of them? What they have" I asked holding my breath.
"Well..." Mike started.
