~Michael~

3:00pm

Saturday

I decide to go outside to make the call.... I have no idea why.... Don't judge.

Ring.....

Ring......

Ring......

"Hey Ash!" I greet him.

"MICHAEL!!! BABE!!" He yells into the phone, my reflexes immediately react and I pull the phone away from my ear.

"Ahaha, hey Ash, when are you coming over for band practice?" I ask.

"Around 5? Is that okay? Where will we meet you?" He replies.

"Yeah that's fine, come to 16 ---- Road! Okay?"

"Okay. We will meet you at 5!"

"Wait! Have we found a lead singer yet?" He yells just as I am about to hang up.

"Nope! We seriously need to find one soon..." I whine.

"Ermahgawd! Okay, well bye Mikey," he says.

"Bye!" I end the call and sigh.

Ugh.

I walk back into the house and I notice that Shania is really happy.

"Shanaynay!? Why are you so happy?"

"Because! I'm gonna do a fashion show for Jade and Kayla when they wake up! And, Kayla said that she's gonna do my hair to make me look like a real princess!!"

"Can I help?!" I ask, faking my excitement.

"Silly Mikey! No of course you can't!" She giggles.

"Oh, okay," I say, pouting my lips and crossing my arms over my chest.

"Sorry," she says. I laugh.

"It's okay, I'm having band practice at 5 so I won't be able to anyways," I say to make her feel less upset.

"Oooh okay! I can't watch though, but I'll definitely listen when I'm getting ready!" She assures me.

"Yay!" I say, genuinely happy.

~Jade~

My eyelids are heavy, my arms are throbbing, my head hurts.

I put all my force and power into opening my eyes.

I can do this.

I open my eyes and the light blinds me. Heat surrounds my body and a voice makes me jolt.

"Jade!?" I know that voice.

"Kayla?" I manage to reply to the voice that I hope is Kayla's. My voice is raspy and weak.

"Yes it's me, how are you feeling," she asks, putting her hand on my shoulder.

"My arms hurt Kayla, what happened?" I ask.

"You painted another red picture," she whispers, bowing her head.

Oh no!

I've been clean for 2 months!

Mum.

Mum is the cause for all my pain.

Fuck her.

"Jade?" Kayla's voice sounds, snapping me back into reality.

"I'm sorry," I whisper, my voice cracking.
