Something Great

Walking to the elevator I feel like I’m doing the walk of shame. All that’s missing is the trail of college guys booing and whistling at me. Crazy thing is, I think that nightmare I had this morning was actually true. I don’t even know what happened last night but I get this urge that Liam was lying to me.

Once the elevator doors close I’m on the floor sobbing my eyes out. A few stops later people get on and off, just staring at me. Not having a care in the world I ignore them and continue my crying. Regaining my strength I stand up and push the lobby button. Nothing happened and that’s that.

Once home I get a lecture with Maya and Stacey. Turns out when Maya came home in the middle of the night, Stacey thought it was me and jumped on her. Maya not knowing what was going on she threw her off and tied her up. Yeah she tied my sister up while she was trying to call me. Apologizing to both of them I can’t stop twitching and yawning.

“Dude take your pills. You’re getting jumpy again.”

“Oh yeah. Forgot bout that.”

“You’re crazy! How can you forget to take the daily pills? Are you sure you’re okay?” Maya steps in and touches my forehead. “Girl you have a fever. Do you want some Advil?”

“No I feel fine. Just a little dizzy. No headaches or anything like that.”

“So no pain?”

“Nope.”

Giving me a strange look Maya leaves me alone on the bed. Finally some peace and quiet. Drifting off into sleep my door flings open and Stacey comes in bugging me about last night.

“What the hell happened to you last night? You just leave me alone, by myself in a crowd full of wild scary girls!”

“Are you serious? Did you not see me get pulled out off the floor? I was literally getting kicked and stepped on Stacey. And here you are complaining to me about not having your back.”

“What, really?” she hugs me “So, did you get to go back stage?” she has a smile as wide and the freeway.

“Oh my god. Is that all you think about?”

“What!”

“Stacey! I was passed out for 20 minutes. And you didn’t even notice I was carried away. What kind of sister are you?”

“Sorry Kee. The boys were singing all my favorite songs. And I swear to god,” she says pointing her finger at me “Niall was winking at me. The whole time!”

“Get out!” I yell at her turning around I cover my ears with my pillow.

“Sorry.” Stacey leaves and I don’t see her the rest of the weekend.

Maya knocks on my door and comes in without an answer. Sitting up I feel like a truck slammed into me. I have the biggest headache ever.

“Well your parents just picked up Stacey. They had to practically pry her away from Brandon. Poor guy.” she laughs.

“Maya I’m so tired.”

“Okay I got it.” she closes my blinds, covers me with all my blankets and leaves my room.

A few weeks later I feel like a car hit me. Barley getting up for work or even food I just want to go to bed and die. Taking non stop pain relievers and always forgetting to take my Adderall this head cold won’t go away. It’s been two months since I last took my pill. Worried, I get a strange feeling to go to the hospital.

“Maya can you take me with you today?”

“To the hospital? Are you okay? I though you were better.”

“I thought so to but this pain won’t go away. I just feel like digging a hole and staying there forever.”

“Maybe you’re working to hard or something. Have you been lifting anything heavy? That can really mess your back up.”

“No, all I do is sit there taking messages, xerox papers, or shred documents.” head in my hand I feel like shit.

“Didn’t you say you were taking new pills. Maybe it’s some kinda side affect. You know some medication can get you really sick or I heard can even cause death. Have you seen all those recalls on those birth control junk?”

“Okay, I’m safe then cause I don’t take those birth control junks.”

“Well I’d say its a side affect.”

“Could be.” looking out the window a flashback of a hot steamy hook up comes to my thoughts “Hope so.”
