Her World Turned Upside Down

"OH MY GOD!" Tori yelled with horror.

"What?" Shane asked.

They had been watching the news later that night and found an interesting story. As they waited for the story, something else caught Tori's attention.

"Bob's out." Tori uttered.

"Bob, the guy who beat you up?" Dustin asked.

"Uh huh." Tori nodded. "Ten bucks says he coming to find me."

"Call the police then." Shane stated.

Hunter raised his hand into the air and cleared his throat.

"What?" Dustin asked.

"Maybe we should help him out." Hunter suggested.

"Why didn't I think of that?" Shane asked sarcastically.

"No, he's a drunk right and he beats on people when he's been drinking, maybe we could get him some help."

"I'm supposed to be the smart one here." Tori joked but did not laugh.

"Oh dude, like take the alcohol out of alcoholic." Dustin yelled.

"I just wish I went surfing." Tori muttered.

"And then you're left with I C." Dustin stated.

"Okay, it's official, you're an idiot." Shane teased.

"That was official a long time ago." Tori joked but yet again did not laugh.

"Hey, I forgot to ask you something, aren't you sad?" Shane asked.

"You can only take so much at one time and with all the other sad stuff, it seems like I don't even really care anymore." Tori answered.

"Oh."

"Yeah, I probably should care but it's done and what's done is done, no changing the past, but I can change the future." Tori smirked.

"Dudes, we should go camping sometime." Dustin grinned.

"How do you get that from what we were just talking about?" Hunter asked.

"I honestly don't know, shall we sometime?"

"Okay, I think I'm going to leave now, you're starting to freak me out." Tori stated.

"Sorry."

"Kidding, I've known you since we were four and you think that I would be scared of you now, when you were seven you wanted to know what fire did and you almost burned your hand off." Tori laughed and held her breath from the pain.

"Serves you right." Dustin retorted.

The pain did not stop. She had to breath and it hurt more. She bit her lip and moved around.

"You okay?" Dustin asked.

"N…o…"

She began to scream and yell. It was burning, her stomach was burning which led to a headache and she passed out.

Her eyes opened to her room. She peered around and found no one. She tried to move but when it hurt again, she stopped and lay back down and closed her eyes. She drifted to sleep.
