It was a cold and dark November night. We were in the car driving from a well deserved vacation.
It happened so fast, the ice on the road was too slippery.
One minute were in the car listening to Christmas music, the next our car is rolling down a hill.
I let out a scream then everything went black.
I awoke in pain.
Everything hurt, my head, my arms my stomach, my legs. I winced when I tried to sit up to see where exactly I was.
It was so dark I could barely make out my surroundings l, but I looked to be in an alley.
I felt panic as I remembered the incident that had just happened.
A wave of questions entered my mind where am I?
What happened to my parents?
Are they alright?
At they dead?
Am I dead?
How'd I get here?
What if they are dying right now?
I felt tears trickle down my cheek, but I quickly wiped them away.
I hated crying.
It always called unwanted attention to me.
People would ask me what's wrong? Have you been crying?
Are you ok?
Trust me all I wanted to do was cry, but I had to find out where I was, how I got here, and where I was going to stay.
I walked out of the alleyway and walked out onto Maine Street.
I looked around and noticed a small shop with a shirt in the window with bold letters saying I LONDON.
My eyes widened I couldn't believe it. How the heck did I end up in London?
My thoughts got interpreted by a growl in my stomach.
Thankfully I still had 10 dollars left over from the trip.
I looked around for a café or restaurant that would be open at this time.
After about five minutes of wondering around I found a small open all night café.
I pulled down the sleeves of my red flannel and walked in a nice elderly lady smiled at me as I walked in.
"Hello dear what can I get you?" 'Yup definitely London' I thought in my head as I heard her accent.
I forced a smile (which was hard for having just lost your parents.)
"What's the soup of the day today?" I asked
"Tomato basil."
"Can I get that with a side of fri- um chips and a small drink?"
"Of course. Is that all for you?"
I nodded
"Alright your total is 6.28£."
My face dropped. Shoot! Welp I'm an idiot.
I herd a ding and I looked over my shoulder to see a man walk in.
He was tall with brown eyes and hair that stuck slightly up, he wore a blue pinstriped suit with a red tie, a long brown coat, and red converse.
"Is everything alright love?" The lady snapped me out of my thoughts and looked at me with a concerned look on her face.
"I'm so sorry." I answered back
"you can go ahead and delete that order. I thought had money but I don't."
I sighed inwardly
'well there goes dinner.'
I suddenly saw a strange hand handing money to the lady I turned to see that it was that man who had walked in earlier.
"Can you add a Earl Grey tea to that?" The man asked. I gave the man a forced smile and thanked him.
I quietly headed over to a booth and let my thoughts wonder again.
Where was I going to sleep tonight?
That was big question.
I had no money, I had no home, I had no family...my family they could be dead right now.
My thoughts got interpreted yet again this time by the man.
"can I sit here?" I nodded, though I thought it was strange since we were the only ones I the café.
As soon as he sat down he reached out a hand and said
"I'm the Doctor."
"I'm Jubilee, but most people call me Jubi." I took his hand and shook it.
"Very nice to meet you Jubi."
It didn't take long for the waitress to bring us our food.
I thanked her then dug into my food not caring about manners or how gross I looked.
The Doctor looked at me with a concerned look then spoke
"So, how old are you?" I hesitated for a minute not fully sure if I should trust this 'Doctor' but I eventually gave in and decided I could put my worry aside
"I'm 16." I told him
"And what grade are you in?"
"I'm a junior." I said softly with no emotion
"Fun! How are you enjoying highschool so far?"
"Honestly it's hell, with all the underage drinking, teenage drama, pregnancy by the time you're 15, and peer pressure."
"Well don't worry it'll get better one you grad-"
He got interpreted by a *ding*
He suddenly pulled a large device out of his pocket.
I stared in awe wondering how in the wide world he was able to fit that in there.
It started dinging non-stop and he looked to have a glimpse of excitement in his eyes.
"Well it was lovely meeting you Jubi, and I hope we meet again."
And with that he was off.
I sat in silence for a minute trying to take in all that happened.
First the car crash; then my family; then this Doctor.
I sigh, got up from my chair, then made my out the door.
I wasn't sure where I was going, but I was so mentally and physically exausted. I couldn't take it anymore.
I found a very large cardboard in an ally (probably from a TV or refrigerator), crawled in side, and allowed my self to cry.
Tears filling my light blue eyes as memories flooded my mind like a river.
*flashback*
I had just got done with my DMV written test.
I was so happy!I FINALLY got my permit after four times of failing.
Later that day my Dad took me out driving. Pulling in to a big empty parking lot my Dad spoke.
"Imagine this whole parking lot is filled with cars." I nodded and followed my Dad's instructions.
Whenever I messed up my dad would make crashing noises, and start singing 'Another One Bites the Dust' I laughed and rolled my eyes.
*end of flash back*
I gave a wet smile at the memory. Then curled up in a ball and fell asleep.
A/N Hey everyone! Thank you so much for reading! Let me know if you have any ideas of what I should do next, and if I should continue.
