So sorry I haven't updated! But... no one's reviewed anyway, so... This is in Luke's POV right now.
I turned on the radio.
Sk8ter Boi by Avril Lavigne was playing.
Hewasaskaterboy,shesaidseeyalaterboy,hewasn'tgoodenoughforher… I winced and changed the station.
Now LittleLove by Syntax was playing.
(This song means a lot for the story so I'm putting all the lyrics.)
Sometimes we all war and cry
Sometimes we all kill and die
Sometimes we are running blind
Sometimes only pain we find
Yep, I thought. Sometimes only pain I find, at least.
I see you climbing mountains high
I see you paint vanilla sky
I see them scream I see them cry
Or I hear them scream and cry. Bryce attacking Olivia's friends, I heard it all through the cell phone.
I hear the old souls asking why
With a little love, with a little pain
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
I hope we're gonna work it out…
Breathing out a broken breath
Breathing up until the death
Breathing eyes they're shut but wide
Breathing on the other side
Teaching right is right to fight
You'll die tonight
With a little love, with a little pain
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
With a little heart, and a little soul
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
Mama had to say goodbye
Daddy's crying he never cries
Sister try to hold your face
Brother young the human race
Flying to a dangerous land
Remembering strength his fathers hand
Landing here to chance his fate
Arriving home it's golden gate
With a little love, with a little pain
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
With a little heart, and a little soul
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
Children dying for our war
Politician warm behind closed door
Blood red is the common law
Children crying how much more
Feelings move a deeper thought
Feelings are so so distraught
Feelings I see blood red sky
Feeings of just why oh why oh why
Since when did Syntax write songs about my feelings?
With a little love, with a little pain
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
With a little heart, and a little soul
Gonna work it out, gonna try again
Sometimes we all war and cry
It wasn't just the lyrics, it was the tone too. I couldn't really stand this song anymore.
I turned off the radio and got up. I was going to go check on Olivia.
I walked into the hospital and waved at the nurse. "No change," she told me before going back to whatever she was doing.
I walked in and saw Holly sitting in one of the beds. I immediately felt guilty and came over to talk to her for a moment.
Rowley waved at me, and so did Greg, Patty, and Trista. I waved back and sat down on the bed next to Holly's.
"Holly, I'm really sorry this happened."
"Oh, it's OK. All you did was lietomeandaskmeoutwhileyoustilllikedadifferentgirl!"
I jumped back. "Um… I've got to go!" I blurted as I dashed back to Olivia.
Nothing had changed. The nurse was right. Olivia lay there looking exactly the same as ever.
Then, something changed.
Olivia opened her eyes and looked straight at me.
She asked, "Where am I?"
Then she frowned. "No. What I want to know is, whoam I?"
I'm so mean, aren't I? Not updating, then giving you a short chapter, then giving you a cliffhanger... Geez. No wonder everyone's not reviewing.
