It was dark, I can't see anything, I feel around, other people. I'm with so many people. But where am I? Still dark, a buzz of talking. There's so many people talking is like an echo in a small room with 3 people having multiple conversations at once. I hear something, I see a lone stage light shinning on a stage, there is still I slight buzzing of conversations. Confused of where I am I keep looking around, the lone stage light made everyone's face have a glow I was in the front row, I looked around, everyone was starting at this light on stage. The stage was empty, but there was a loving mood going around this crowd. A guitar starts playing, the crowd starts screaming. Followed by the bass and drums. I was at my vary first concert. Like real concert not one from the fair, a local area, but like a real concert. From the sides of stage, Jack and Zack come on stage playing their instruments. Ryan and the drum set were raised on the stage, they start playing the beginning of "stay awake" then Alex hanging from a string comes down, and he steps on stage. As I'm watching my jaw is just dropped, I'm living my dream. Wide eyed in the front row, the speakers vibrating my heart, I shed a tear of happiness as Alex sings "stay awake" the crowd yells back "AKE" everyone through their fist up as they yelled, "get a grip and get out you're safe" "SAFE." I was singing along, "from the weight of the world just take" "TAKE" I threw my fist up as I yelled back at Alex, with the crowd. "A second to keep things straight, I'll be fine" "FINE" "even though I'm not always right." "RIGHT" "I can count on the sun to shine" "SHINE" "dedication takes a life time but dreams only last for one night" as he sung night, everything started to get black again and Alex stopped singing. All the noise around me was toning out. "Roxxi? Can you hear me?" I slightly opened my eyes to see my mom standing over me. I was dizzy and the light was giving me a head ache. I rubbed my eyes and looked at my mom as she smiled at me. "Oh honey" she touched my face "I'm so glad you're okay." I looked around, and realized I was laying on a hospital bed.
"Why am I here?" I start to sit up, looking around rapidly, freaking out a little, checking under my legs for my phone. "Roxanne calm down." My mom set her hand on my shoulder, pushing me back down to lay down. "Just relax. You fell down the stairs at school. Did you trip? I got a call saying you fell and some boy carried you to the office" I was at first confused by everything. I sat there in silence for a minute trying to remember what had happend. "I went to first hour.." Thought about it and thought and then grunted under my breath "that bitch Natalie." "What?" "Then I walked with my friend Austin.. I was PUSHED" realizing what had happened I got upset staring at my mom. "I was pushed..down the stairs, mom." Remembering what had happend, suddenly the door opens and a nurse comes in. "Hey, how you doin?" She smiled at me. "I'm fine" I looked down. The nurse looked at my mom, "she is free to go, she just hit her head really hard, she might struggle from migraines for a couple days, and we proscribed medicine for that." She pulled out a bottle of pills and handed then to my mom. She started taking off all the cords and things off my body. "If you need anything just call us." I got out of the bed and exited the room with my mom. My brothers and sister were there waiting on me. Alex and Charlie got on both sides of me. "What happened Roxxie?" "Yeah tell us! Tell us!" I stretched as my head started to hurt, "I just fell down stairs." Ollie was holding Claire with one hand, reaching in his pocket with the other, pulling out my phone and handing it to me. "Some kid who apparently carried you to the office found me and gave me your phone" i try to press a button but it's dead, "what time is it?" "9:00"Ollie looked over at me. Claire asleep on his shoulder, "what happend?" We all followed my mom to the van, I looked at my shoes walking. "I got pushed." I looked at Oliver as his expression changed, I've never seen him look so angry. We get in the car and drive back home. When we get home, I go to my room And plug my phone in. As I was waiting for my phone to charge up, I figured I'd check tumblr and twitter. I get my laptop and sign in on tumblr and twitter. I start to scroll on my twitter and see a twitpic of me laying on the floor, with blood coming out of my mouth, with a caption that says "don't talk shit, or you'll end up like mcCrackin." I keep scrolling and I'm just an internet sensation. "Don't be a McCrackin", "Roxanne McCrackin is such a bitch, I'm glad someone kicked her ass." I held the power button on my laptop and closed it. I was just so in shock, I looked at the wall zoning our into thought. My phone vibrated when it came on, it loaded up and kept vibrating. 15 NEW MESSAGES
3 MISSED CALLS
[NEW TEXT MESSAGE FROM: Unknown: hey. Hope you're feeling better.] [NEW TEXT MESSAGE FROM: Alice: hey are we still on for tonight?] I put my elbows on my laptop, rubbed my face as i started to cry. A tear rolled down my face, I put my laptop aside. Standing up I go for the migraine pills. I stand in front of messy dresser, and looks at myself if the mirror. Watching myself cry. I take the pill bottle pouring pills into my hand, i take all of them in one go, walking back to bed as I pass out.
