24 Hours to Live
Chapter 4
Chapter 4 Gabriella's POV
I woke up in the morning and I heard braking. I got out of bed and ran downstairs. I looked at Callie. She was barking at the front door. I looked at her and then went over to the window. I looked out and saw the mailman putting mail in the box. I went over to Callie.
"Callie it's just the mailman." I said to her. I went upstairs to change. Once I had gotten dressed for school I grabbed the things I needed.
"Ok, girl I'll see you later on today." I said giving her a hug as she sat at the door. I decided on walking to school. When I got there it was crowded. I squeezed my way through to my locker. I opened it and stuck my head in my locker. I screamed in it.
"Well you know screaming isn't going to help, Olivia." My eyes widened. I took my head out of my locker and saw Troy standing there.
"Did…did you say Olivia?" I asked him.
"No are you ok?" he asked me.
"Yeah, just a little off." I said getting my chemistry book out.
"Whose Olivia?" he asked me as I closed my locker. I started walking away.
"No one." I said to him as he ran up trying to catch up.
"Well it sounds like someone." He said. I stopped and so did he. I looked at him. His eyes were filled with concern and pleading. I took in a deep breath.
"Here name is Olivia LeMez. She died last year, but that's all I'm giving you." I said walking ahead. What did I just do?
"Oh, I heard about her. It was all over the news. Her whole family died. Wasn't her anniversary like yesterday or something?"
"Yeah, it was." I said.
"It was pretty sad." He said.
"Yeah, it was." I repeated myself.
"Did you know her?" he asked me.
"You can say that, but no more questions." I said walking into homeroom.
"Okies." He said sitting down in his chair as the bell rang. I sat down in my seat and put my head on the desk. I hit it twice. What had I done?!
"Stupid, stupid, stupid." I said hitting my head.
"Ms. LeMez, are you ok?" I heard Mrs. Darbus say. I looked up.
"Did you say LeMez?" I asked her.
"No I said Montez. Are you ok?" She asked.
"Yea, just no enough sleep last night." I said to her. She nodded her head and eyed me, and then she turned back to the board writing down pages.
Why was I hearing voices? I felt my phone vibrate. I asked to go to the bathroom. I got into the hallway and answered it. As I was walking to the bathroom I could hear breathing on the other end. I got in the bathroom stall and locked it.
"Hello?" I asked him the phone. The breathing sounded familiar.
"H-Hello?" I asked shakily into the phone.
"How does it feel to have your mother raped?" I heard a raspy voice say.
"What? Who is this?" I asked. I was starting to get worried.
"Your mother is gone, Olivia…" he said.
"Who the hell is this?!" I said into the phone.
"Bang, Bang, Bang, your mom's dead." He said.
All of a sudden I hear screams…my mom screams. I start screaming.
Troy's POV
Mrs. Darbus was talking about the theater and all of a sudden we hear screams. I looked around and so did everyone else.
"Where's Ms. Montez?" Darbus asked looking around. I looked at her and then ran out of my seat. I rant into the girl's bathroom where the screams were coming from. I look under the stalls and I see a girl on the ground thrashing. I crawl under it and see Gabriella. She was sleeping.
"Gabriella!" I kept screaming. I was shaking her, but she wouldn't wake up. She kept screaming "No! Mommy! Daddy! Help me please!"
I unlocked the stall door as I saw Sharpay come in.
"Get, Mrs. Darbus in here!" I said to her. I held Gabriella in my arms as she still kept screaming and thrashing.
"Gabi, it's me Troy. Your ok, everything is ok." I whispered into her ear as I rocked her back and forth.
Mrs. Darbus had walked in.
"Is she ok?"
"I don't know. She was screaming and thrashing around, but that's it." I said looking up at my teacher.
"Ok, let me go get the principle and nurse." She said walking away.
I hear sobbing. I looked down at Gabriella. She was still sleeping, but the tears were coming.
"Gabriella, come on wake up." I said shaking her in my arms. All of a sudden she opened her eyes.
"Where am I?" she asked shooting up out of my arms.
"In the girls' bathroom. You fell asleep." I said to her.
"Do you remember anything?" I asked her.
"Remember coming in here to go to the bathroom….and answer my phone." She said looking at me.
"Gabriella last time I checked your phone was in your bag." I said to her.
"It was a dream…" she said looking at me.
"Well a daydream." I said to her.
"A daydream…" she said standing up. As soon as we stood up the principle and nurse and Darbus walked in.
"Are you alright?" The nurse said running over to Gabriella.
"I'm fine; I think I just fell asleep." Gabriella said to them. Something was going on with her. Ever since yesterday.
Did it have something to do with the LeMez girl? That's when she started acting weird.
"Are you sure you want to go back to class?" The principle said.
"Yeah, I was just a little tired, um it was a nightmare is all." she said
"Ok." They all said. Gabriella and I went into Mrs. Darbus's room and got our stuff as the bell rang. We had free period…
"Hey, are you ok?" the gang started crowding around her. I could see she was getting frustrated with all the questions.
"STOP!" she yelled all of a sudden.
"I'm going home, bye." She said heading to the stairs and went up to the office.
"Is she ok?" Taylor asked.
"I don't know, but I have a really really bad feeling." I said looking at the spot she was just standing in.
Gabriella's POV
What is happening to me? I asked myself as I walked into my house. Once I closed the door I looked around. Everything was smashed and on the floor. I went over to the phone and called the police…
I hung up and wondered where Callie was.
"CALLIE?!" I screamed into the houses.
Nothing….
