Remembering the bad stuff

It was so real it felt like a bad dream the pain was excruciating, it felt like someone was taking a knife and stabbing me a million times then would take me outside and throw me against a brick wall before getting run over by a mac truck. At times I felt like I was swimming and couldn’t get up for air, other times it felt like I was burning from the inside out, I didn’t know what was going on, I couldn’t communicate with Drake and it was scaring me, I could hear him. I was locked inside my head where the images of everything that has ever happened to me came flooding back to me, the time where I was a baby and Blake was taking care of me when our birth parents were too drugged to care, the time I was molested at four, the skiing accident that I haven’t told anybody and almost lost my life there too, the car accident where I met Drake and lost Donnie all at the same, the time where Donnie saved my life. Everything I saw was bad, everything I saw I should have been dead. I remembered the time I almost died at the skiing accident Drake must have been inside my head because it was like I was pulled in that direction for a reason.

Three years ago….

            I went on a school trip to lake Tahoe when it was snowing, I was in a cabin with my best friend Sammy, since we were pretty much the only two girls that went on this trip and we barely had adult supervision we invited our boyfriends to come over to our cabin after the teachers did a head count. We were rebels, we snuck out of the cabin to go snowboarding without the crowds, it was the worse mistake of our lives because out of the four of us two of them lost their lives and we got hurt really bad. Sammy and her boyfriend Luke decided we should go to Devils hill the one where it was off limits to us, we grabbed our gear and a couple of snowmobiles and went up the hill. It was a long way down but we dared each other to do it, I should of said no and backed out but didn’t want to be a chicken in front of everybody. We were laughing and having a good time probably had a few too many to drink, an avalanche started and we had to race the snow down. It was too fast for us, Luke and Seth went first and Sammy and I weren’t far behind, we dodged rocks and snow that came by fast at us, we thought we beat it until an earthquake hit and the cave that we were in started to get snowed in, a boulder fell on Luke and he was killed instantly, Sammy was crying and wanted to get him up but Seth told her someone will come looking for him if he isn’t back with the group, so we drug a drunk and upset Sammy down the hill until we came to a landing where we could rest, or it least we thought we could rest. My snowboard got stuck under a rock that missed me but I didn’t move my board fast enough, so Seth being the guy he was gave me his and he would find another way down, and that he did, he was thrown off the landing onto the cliff below and lost his footing and fell a hundred feet or more to the bottom. By this time it was almost sun rise we lost our boyfriends and we were barely half way down, we were getting tired and sore from being hit by flying rocks and snow. We made it down to the bottom but not before being thrown by the last of the avalanche, I hit my head on a rock, I was bleeding from my head and I had a broken arm, Sammy was bleeding but that was about it. We sat at the bottom of the hill until the snow patrol came around and found us, when asked what happened we told them a lie.

            ‘Our boyfriends wanted to go up to Devil’s hill we tried talking them out of it but it was no use. The avalanche hit ten minutes after they left.’

            ‘How did you get hurt?’

            ‘Trying to get away I hit my head on a rock and then fell on another.’

            ‘What’s wrong with you?’

            ‘Just hit my head.’

            ‘You two wait here while I go get the medics and a search party.’

            ‘Sammy we can not tell anybody the truth, we both lost the ones we love but nobody needs to know the truth.’

            ‘I understand, I think it is for the best that we are no longer friends, it is hard enough just to look at you.’

            ‘This wasn’t my idea and you know it.’

            ‘No it was mine that is why I don’t deserve you as a friend.’

            ‘After today we will go our separate ways, but for now just hold me.’

            ‘Yeah after today.’

The teachers were called out the medics were called over, they wanted to take us to the hospital but we wanted to wait until they found the bodies so we could say goodbye to our boyfriends. All of the guys that were on the trip came over to us, they had to start a search party and anybody who wanted to join that was over the age of eighteen was allowed to join, all but three of the teachers helped, the guys all went snowboarding or stayed with us. After about six hour of searching they found the bodies, Luke was smashed and they had to roll the boulder off of him, Seth they found his body twenty feet from where we were standing. They loaded the bodies onto the stretcher and was taken to the hospital then Sammy and I were taken to a hospital too. I almost lost my life that day but I also lost three of my best friends.

Drake pulled out of the memory and I was left to cry inside of my mind, I wanted out I didn’t want to be here anymore. I wanted to open my eyes and see Drake just to make sure Sorbin and everybody else was safe, something was injected into my arm and the world or my mind went black again.
