What's your name?

Chapter 11

Tk let out his breath in relief. I stood up. Tk looks at me, wondering what I am about to do. I turn to Cameron and help him to his feet as well. I nod to him and he nods back. We look at Tk and he is so confused at this moment. Cameron and I walk over to him and hold him tight in an embrace between us. I rest my head on his chest and Cameron rests his head on Tk's shoulder.

We stay like that for what seems like an eternity, but Tk starts crying. I reach up my arm and wipe away the tears from Tk's eyes. He looks down at me and smiles. I smile back and let go of him. I walk away to change into my school clothes. I hug Tk once more and Cameron goes to change. When he comes back I let go of Tk who goes to change.

I hug Cameron. "I didn't know that Tk had to deal with any of that..." Cameron shakes his head.

"Neither did I. Now I am really glad that I am his friend. I wish there was more I could do." Just then Tk comes out with our bags. Cameron and I break apart and take our respective bags. I look at the clock. We will make it if we run. We head out the door and lock it. We turn around and count to three.

We take off running as fast as we all can. Of course my boys are faster than I am so I lag a little bit, but only about a foot or two. They make me run in the middle of the two of them so that I can't get hurt.

We are not even halfway when it happens. I flip head over heels and roll down the hill off the side of the road. I land in the fast moving river that flows under the road. I hold my breath and my nose automatically is plugged by my upper lip as I flow underneath the road.

The next thing I know is I am laying in a bed and my head is pounding. Upon further awakening, I discover that I can't move my left wrist or my left ankle. I feel like someone slugged me in my left shoulder and about 10 needles are in the inside of my left elbow. I try to sit up, but someone gently pushes me back down.

I look to my right and see a tall figure. I figured I must be in the nurses office at school but that didn't explain why there was a boy standing next to me. I try to get a good look at his face, but everything is blurry. I try to speak but nothing comes out. I start to panick because the boy's mouth moves and I cannot hear him.

I then feel someone on my left side. I look to see a second person standing there. I guessed that the two boys were Cameron and Tk. Why weren't they in class? I wish I could talk to them... I wish I could... I wish... And I don't remember anything more than that.
