Chapter 3

“What do you want to know first?” Kyla asked me

“Why am I in her?” I said, stupid I know, I really should have known

“How much of prom do you remember?” she asked hesitantly

“I…um…when me, Spencer and Aiden were fighting and then Spencer yelled just decide” I said after clearing my throat

Kyla breathed a sigh of relief “I’m glad I don’t have to explain that” she said she sat back in her chair “after that, there were gun shots and I got down on the ground”

she was quiet for a few minutes. Her eyes glazed over and her pupil dilated as if she were experiencing it over again, seeing it all happen

“I got up and couldn’t see you so I shouted for you…and then you just stood up, as if you were fine…but you weren’t” she said her voice was getting quiet

“you loked straight at me, and I could see it straight away…you were bleeding…a lot” she said and I swear I could see the tears building in her eyes

“I pointed at you…but I didn’t know where I should point first, you stomach or you should…Spencer was right next to you but she didn’t move, she just stared at you…you saw me pointing at you and you looked down”

I closed my eyes to see if I could see it, if I could remember it, but it didn’t happen

“you touch your stomach wound and brought it up to your face and rubbed the blood between you fingers…it was surreal…and then you said something to Spencer and collapsed” she said, her pupils coming back into focus, a few tears spilling over her eyelids.

She cleared her throat and looked down at her hands “I uh, I yelled for somebody to call an ambulance and ran over to you…there was uh…a lot of blood, I got it on my dress aswell…I applied pressure to your stomach when…I wasn’t sure which to apply it to but figured that your stomach was bleeding more”

I still hadn’t moved from my spot but my eyes opened and I was staring at a blank wall. I had not expected that I had been shot. Its stupid really, all logical thought would be that I was shot. Hearing gun shots then waking up in the hospital, you would assume that you were shot but I didn’t. I don’t know what I expected but I didn’t expect that.
