I AM writing this quickly as I can [Translation, as fast as i can be arsed] but if i get positive feedback I'll gladly try and set up a scheduel.))

bip... bip... bip...

Beep... beep... beep..."

When I awoke, I found myself mimicking the... Heartbeat monitor thing... Name didn't actually come to mind... I didn't stop. It distracted from how much I was hurting. Otherwise I would just scream.

I could still feel... those things in me- biting, gnawing, chewing, infecting- whats that noise?- oh. I stopped screaming. At least it woke Dad up.

"T-Taylor!" He ran over, hugging me- "Fuck!" I was still... Very sore. We resorted to him sitting by me, hand on my stomach.

"What happened? Why didn't you say anything?!" That... was a hard question to answer... There were others sure to come... But for now, I had an answer to this one. "I... I was an idiot. I kept telling the school what was happening, they never listened. It was little nerdy Taylor against star Sophia,'innocent' little Madison, and 'beautiful' Emma-"

"Wait, Emma? She's your friend!" "Was. Was my friend. She betrayed me... Used everything she knew against me... After winter break it slowed down, stopped... I thought it was over... I was wrong..." I am not too proud to admit I cried. A lot. Soon dad offered to get me something to keep me busy as I recovered. I chose... Legos.
