CHAPTER TWO
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down
Lucas Pov
I am wakened up by the sound of my own voice, I soon notice that there is sweat running down my face
and I quickly realised I had another nightmare. I have had nightmares for years now but lately they had
been getting worse. I looked over at the red eluminated numbers on my clock that read 7:00am so I decided
it was best to get ready for the big day.
After I was dressed I walked through the kitchen to see my mum sitting with a coffee. She heard me come in
and signalled me to come and sit before I left.
"You had another nightmare I heard you" she usually didn't say anything but I knew that it bothered her.
"It was nothing" I shifted nervously in my seat
"Lucas I know it wasn't nothing what is wrong please maybe I could help" she wasn't going to stop I sensed it
so I decided I had to get out of there
"look i'm going to be late for school so maybe we could save the oprah chat for later" before she had a chance
to say anything I was all ready out of the door.
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
I managed to get to my locker without any problems but that was all about to change. I went to walk to my next class when I
accidently (yes it was accidental) shoved into a shoulder
"Hey watch were your going ass" He was medium height with black hair and had tanned skin and before I knew it he had pushed me
to the ground and walked away. I just groaned could this get any worse
"The bell has went get to class now!" I turned to come face to face with a teacher who looked like donatella versace. Weird I know
Apparently it could get worse.
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
But I know I'm on a losing streak
'Cause I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
15 minutes later I walked into class met my about 20 sets of staring eyes. God
"What time do you call this let me guess your the transfer" I was about to answer when a familiar set of mesmorizing eyes caught my attention. Brooke
"ANSWER ME" Mr chavez or asshole as i now refferred to him boomed so loud i nearly jumped 2 foot in the air. It definately brought back some bad memories
flashback
A 7 year old Lucas scott sat on the carpet drinking a cup of juice
"Dad I spilt some juice" He said as he casually walked in the kitchen on his way to get a towel. But suddenly his head snapped to the side and he realised he had been slapped the sheer force of it knocked him to the ground
"what was tha-" He didn't get a chance to answer because he was dragged up by his hair. Now he was screaming
"Do you want another hit" He didn't answer just continued bawling
"ANSWER ME DAMMIT" He lifted his hand again
End Flashback
I Looked back at brooke, I could see the concern in her eyes. I cracked.
"get your hand off me" I stared past him, I couldn't look into his yes if I did I would be out this school faster than I came in.
"What did you just say I am your teacher sit down Mr scott!" I didn't answer back or sit down I walked out.
I dont take orders
Not anymore.
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead
I stare at the basket in the gym for minutes holding the ball in my hand contemplating shooting. I used to play alot but Dan Put to much pressure on me so just to piss him off i stopped but trust me I got punished for disobeying him.
"You gonna shoot or just stand there and admire" I turn to see a raven haired boy smirking at me
"Look man im nathan james nice to meet you" He stuck his hand out to shake. Tentatively I shook it.
"Lucas scott" When he withdrew his hand and noticed a gold band on Nathans finger
"Yeah that is usually the expression people get when they see it. Im married" Alright don't really know how to respond. Hmm
"Yeah well thats is emm yeah great" Nice .
"well anyway the team has to practice so eh yeah" I nodded and slowly made my way to the entrance
"Scott I'll see you around right man" He smiled
"yeah maybe" If I am here long enough
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Sitting at the kitchen table while your mum gives you a lecture about your simply fantastic day is the perfect way to finish of a shitty day. Don't you think?
"They are giving you one more chance pleasee don't screw this up" Thats my life in a nut shell basically all i do is fuck everyhing up. Ask anyone.
My thoughts are interrupted when I see My mum hunched over in pain
"Mum .. Mum whats wrong whats happening" The panic in my voice is evident she is all I have. The only person love.
"I am fine just feeling nauseous i'll be fine I was at the doctors today they gace me some painkillers nothing serious"
She tells me to go to my room and get some rest but i can't help but worry. That is 3 times she has been to the doctors this past month. What is something is wrong.
What would I do?
'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead
But if you wanna show, just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
Now the drugs don't work

Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
I'm never going down, I'm never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more

No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
