Collision

Chapter Three

(EDITED)

"I..Isl...Isla.." I heard a voice attempting to pull me back into reality. A woman's voice, though it didn't sound familiar.

"Isla!" She said again in a slightly louder voice, yet it was soft and kind. I groaned, ugh why is she waking me up at this time. Wait...what time was it?

"Noo, let me sleep," I said, it came out like a scared whisper. Why did my voice sound so weak?

Weak...then the sudden headache came back that I felt like someone had loaded tonnes weights on me. I was numb, my head was under the impression that I had been smacked with a brick and was just giving me unnecessary pain.

My eyes remained closed as I forced my hand up to my head to try and stop the painful siren. It took a few attempts before I managed to lift it up. Why did my arm feel so heavy?

I can't be in bed, I remember getting up this morning. Bacon. Lily. I saw Drew today and Sam. We had.... erm.... maths? I think?

Oh, what's going on?

Suddenly I remembered feeling something strange, but it was happiness. That wouldn't make me...make me? I tried hard to think for a second.

My eyes flung open as memories came flooding back. I remember walking into class with Sam and laughing because...well he's clumsy and has two left feet, my mental self-rolled her eyes thinking about what he did.

Wait. Something didn't add up right. I clearly sat down in my chair, I'm supposed to be in class, why am I lying down. Where am I? I looked straight at a white ceiling and moved my eyes in front of me.

There were posters on the wall with moving pictures of people performing first aid procedures. I looked to my right and saw a little woman stood observing me while writing stuff down on a clipboard she wore a light green dress with a small white apron tied around her waist, she had a light green nurses hat on. Nurse? Why is the nurse here? Why am in the nursing wing?

"Welcome back Miss Reid," She spoke in a bubbly voice once again. I was confused.

"Wh.. What..wh... Why?" I tried to get words out but my throat felt like a dry cave. It seemed that she noticed this and giggled.

"Its okay dear, you only fainted, but on your fall, you hit your head giving you a minor concussion," She laid all this news on me while rushing over to one of the cupboards which were on the left side of me.

Fainted? Why did I faint? How long was I out? All these questioned flooded me at once. I opened my mouth slightly to begin speaking only remembering the pain of the process then closed it again. I looked at the nurse, she was rummaging and obviously trying to find something in the cupboard.

"Oh, fiddlesticks!" She shouted, clearly not finding what she was looking for, then looked at me then smiled, "I'll be right back love, just stay here" Before I had the chance to try and say something she left leaving me and my thoughts alone.

I'm trying to remember what had happened to me, I have all my memories right until I sat down with sam and then....then..I felt something.

Yes! That's it, I had this feeling. I think, it was like strange happiness, but how would a thought like that make me "faint" nothing seemed to add up.

Suddenly I realised how tired I was like I hadn't slept in a week and my head still hurt. Why was I tried I literally had been sleeping for god knows how long, but that didn't matter I knew sleep was beginning to overcome me and the thought of it taking away my pain made me want to have it more. My eyes were just about to close when the nurse barged through again startling me awake.
