Olivia POV
School had been loud and crazy. Like always. It wasn't as if being a popular band made it any better. Sometimes, it makes it worse. For example, crazy obsessed fans like to talk to me in class and get me in trouble, which was exactly what happened today. Anyways, after the short conference with Principal Brenigan, I was so ready for a nice card game with my nana. Not to mention my kitten, who probably had been waiting for me all day like usual. But she was going to have to wait a while.
I strapped on my helmet and started pedaling. Either I was being careless or I had a death wish, because the next thing I know, a searing pain starts in my lower back until the fire is consuming my body. I fall to the ground, and my vision turned red. As I watched, a car swerved around me and sped off. Then everything went black. And that was the beginning of a very long week.
Wen POV
I was watching her bike away when the car hit her. Stupid guy that I am, I didn't look at the license number or even who was driving. I was in shock, and Olivia lay there on the asphalt, not moving. Someone screamed. Hopefully it wasn't me. Charlie, who was next to me, started dialing a number, which now I'm pretty sure was 911. While he spoke to the operator, I stood there not doing anything. Real heroic. I think it was the sirens that jerked me to my senses. I ran to Olivia and immediately noticed her back. I'm not going to go into details, let's just say it was pretty bad. It seemed to be the place the car hit her. Someone had wheeled her bike out of the way, but hadn't the decency to get Olivia herself out of the way. Who knew, maybe someone had stole it. Heartless I know, but it's high school. I ushered Charlie to help me get her out of the road, and we got her to a bench. She didn't look to good. I took her helmet off just in case it was blocking her breath.
"Do you think she'll be okay?" Charlie spoke.
"I don't know." I said honestly.
Olivia POV
Light was shining on my eyelids, seemingly to probe them open. I was surrounded by Mo, Wen, Charlie, Stella, and nana. I was in a white room that I assumed was the hospital.
"What happened?" I asked. When I tried to sit up, pain coursed through my body and my brain seemed to refuse to allow movement.
"Rest first." Nana said firmly.
"No. Tell me, what happened. How bad am I?"
"The truth?" Wen spoke up.
"Yes, the truth."
"You slipped a disk in your back. The doctor says you might be permanently paralyzed."
