Asleep

Prologe

My life was perfect, in every way perfect I was a Junior at Saintren High aspiring singer and a black belt in taekwondo. Sure I struggled with math and had major ADHD problems but the thing that made my life as perfect as it was Ryan my next door neighbor for 11 years and my boyfriend for 3. We were watching a harry potter marathon at Cami and Avery’s house.

“Lizzie?” Ryan said testily.

“Mhmm”

“we have to go It almost curfew.”

“Awww Do we have to?” he got a devilish smile on his lips.

“Would you rather we stay here and I tickle you to death.”

“Well…”

“Five seconds to choose.”

“I guess I’ll choose….”

“Too late!!” He tickled me mercilessly until I said We could go.

We lived right next door to each other same as it’s been for 11 years. But, Emma and Sarah live 12 blocks away. We were about halfway to our street Jones St. and I kissed his cheek making me smile then he put his arm around my waist and pulled me close.

“Lizzie?” Ryan asked

“Mhhm?”

“What going to happen to us? I’m going off to USC penket in the fall I know you already have a great scholarship there but what do we do? Boys will be asking you out left and fight and I just don’t want to lose you. Lizzie you're my life.”

     I stopped dead in my tracks about to deny that I would ever look at another boy the way I look at him. But I was too late. Everything happened so fast. I can only remember some of it,  the headlights of a car, Ryan yelling at me to move, falling to the ground and watching Ryan the love of my now worthless life getting rammed into by the front of the truck, and a scream. it was only after the entire sixteen wheeler was stopped 20 feet away from me I realized I was the one screaming and my legs where crushed. Ran over by every tire on the right side of that 16 wheeler truck. Then black just black.
