Fire and Ice

How is this possible

~ Raige ~

I awoke with a start, my very annoying digital alarm clock screeching in my ear. "Gah.." I gasped and threw it out the window, tired of hearing the annoying thing, and cursing myself mentally for even setting it on a day I don't even have to work. It was such a stupid piece of technology anyways! I mean did I really need it?

I rolled over, ending up bumping into Sammie, I forgot she came in here lastnight, and I know what all of you are thinking, I may be gay, but I would never do that stuff with her, she is like a sister to me, we grew up together, she woke up, causing me to squeak in surprise, she got up squealed "GET DRESSED!! MALLLLLL!!" I groaned and nodded. She sighed and fiddled with the doorknob, walking out,

She wants me to talk, but I simply refuse, I am mute and have been since the age of ten. I couldn't argue with her anyways, I always did as she wanted. I dressed myself in some grey ripped skinny jeans, a nice looking Icon For Hire band shirt, and my Icon for Hire hoodie, if you can't tell I am unashamed of my music taste, and, well I am addicted to music in general..

I slipped on my All Stars and ran down the stairs to be greeted by Sammie's all to familiar grin. "My friends will be joining us!!" She squealed causing me to frown and groan, rolling my eyes we got into her car. "You know these guys fairly well, Raige." I shrugged, Sammie was the only person I really knew anymore, after highschool and losing my girlfriend, I became isolated.

We pulled into the Mall parking lot, a smile spreading across Sammie's bright red, lipstick covered lips, that was the thing about Sammie and I, she wore lipstick with very little eye line, I wear alot of eyeliner and no lipstick, polar opposites, she was bright and outgoing where as I am the kind of girl to stay inside and hide from the world.

I opened my door and bumped into a taller female, causing me to fall back onto the pavement and look at her, only to have the breath stolen out of my lungs, I coughed attempting to get my breath back, but that was not going to happen, I grasped onto the door of the car and slammed it shut, locking myself in the car, eyes wide and I took my inhaler, pressing it to my lips and useing it, taking a deep breathe.

Thats the thing about me, bad asthma, if I get shocked or over excited I have an asthma attack, and seeing who Sammie's friends are, I had all the right to be shocked and yet embarrassed, I wanted desperatly for this to be a dream so I pinched myself, and nope, it wasn't.
