It is time... I had to leave now or I'd be stuck there forever....

I took a sharp turn that completely surpri¬sed my pursuer buying myself extra minutes to get as far away as possible, I drive straight and double back going in the complete opposite direction of where I had been heading, after a few twists and turns I finally relax-assured that I didn't have a tail on me.

00:25:09

I'm sorry dad...

I should have listened to you...

00:20:45

I check the time and it's almost midnight, I remember when I first met him- his smile and his laughter- it was just a cover up, I wish I knew this when we first met... Lola warned me but I stayed with him anyway. I check the mirrors again to make sure I'm not being followed.

I guess I've lost him...if that was him.

Gawd...I'm so paranoid, imagining things that aren't there...

00:08:03

I check the time again, eight minutes to midnight. I close my eyes and say a silent prayer hoping he won't find me before I made it to my parents.

00:05:06

No... I made the right decision.

00:02:10

Where is he?

I wrap my arms around myself and I suddenly wish I had worn a jacket.

00:02:20

I hope he isn't following me?

00:01:56

Everything I did for nothing, I'm sorry Lola... 00:00:59

I was such a fool...

00:00:40

All that... she probably hates me...

00:00:30

What if I can never get away?

00:00:25

Oh man he's going to be so pissed...

00:00:20

Maybe I should turn around... Maybe I can make it back before he gets home, if I start driving now..

I hear it before I feel it, and in a split second, my car is hit and I'm tumbling around in it, I can hear the glass breaking and there's this ringing in my ears and then everything suddenly goes still, I'm strapped to my sit upside down-with blood trickling out of my forehead- the sight suddenly makes me feel dizzy and my eyesight starts getting blurry, I release myself from my seat belt- it takes a while because my hands are sticky and slippery with blood, I drop and land on shards of glass and one instantly buried itself in my thigh, I am losing blood fast. I was fighting with all I had left-my skull throbbing, my vision getting dark and I was in a state of confusion and panic-¬they say before you die your life flashes before your eyes- or you see your greatest hits!

I can't remember if that's what happened, all I can remember is that I was fighting the urge to close my eyes and rest because if I did I'd never return. I was so tired but

I had to stay awake-for my parents, Reece, Katie, Lola and even Mason-I just stayed there gasping for breath and watching the blood drain out of me, convinced I was going to die anyway-I felt a hand drag me out but it was like I wasn't me anymore-I suddenly understood what having an out of body experience was like, it was like the person being dragged out was someone else, and I was looking at myself but I couldn't recognize her-she was pale, a shadow of herself, I was yanked back inside myself and I didn't feel any pain all I felt was exhaustion.

I'm sorry dad.

I closed my eyes and the last thing I see before I give into the darkness was - the outline of a man with a phone on his ear, shaking me and telling me to stay alive.

Too late...I was already dead.
