Title: I Wish It Was Me
Author: K Gilmore
Summary: Another 150 word drabble to put off writing my English essay. This time Paige is angsting.
Nothing in my life is perfect.
You may look at me and say "There goes Paige; she has everything someone could ever want"
You obviously aren't looking hard enough.
You aren't looking at my ex-boyfriend, who dumped me for a slut.
You aren't looking at my brother who barely has time for me anymore.
You aren't looking at my parents who NEVER had time for me.
My best friend won't talk to me anymore- she's too busy helping her boyfriend.
The Spirit Squad isn't listening to me anymore.
I'm messing up in most of my classes.
I have nothing.
I have nobody.
I don't think I'm quite over the shooting. I mean, one of our own brought a gun to school and no one was able to do anything about it.
That's one detail that keeps replaying in my head.
The other is that I wish it was me that had died.
