CH. ONE
Chris sat down on the school's stage, waiting for his friends to arrive. He impatiently looked at his watch for the ten-millionth time. Finally, two kids-a boy and girl- came over.
"It's about time." Chris grumbled.
"Sorry." Lucas "Luke" said.
"Well, if we're gonna win Battle of the Bands, we have to practice." Chris said.
"Yeah, yeah." Luke said. He got behind his drum set.
"So, what are we practicing?" Allie asked. She picked up her cherry red guitar and slung it over her shoulder.
"Uh…Falling For You by Taking Back Sunday." Chris replied. He picked up his metallic blue guitar. Allie smiled at him and got ready to play. Chris blushed, but smiled back.
"OK, 1, 2...1, 2, 3, 4!"
Chris: This drowning sorrow is shaking me
More than it ever has before
The road signs reading bitter end
Leave me suspect of a crime
Chris: The city air chokes me today
More than it ever had before
I'm nervous to feel deserved
By these street signs anymore
Luke/Allie: Are you
Going to
Chris: Be waiting up when i get home
Luke/Allie: We'll stay up all night
Chris: Getting drunk and watching sunsets on our porch
All: Falling for you
Falling for you
I fell for you
(I'm falling)
Falling for you
(I'm falling)
Falling for you
I fell for you
Chris blinked, trying to clear his vision. He shook his head and kept singing.
Chris: These empty feelings question me
Of who I think I've become
Mind is ticking life away
Asking if you are the one
Luke/Allie: Are you
Going to
Chris: Be waiting up when i get home
Luke/Allie: We'll stay up all night
Chris: Getting drunk and watching sunsets on our porch
All: Falling for you
Falling for you
I fell for you
(I'm falling)
Falling for you
(I'm falling)
Falling for you
I fell for you
Allie walked over to Chris's microphone and they sang together.
Chris/Allie: I'm dying to explain my heart
To you now
I'm dying to explain my heart
To you now
There's so much on my mind it's tearing me apart
There's so much on my mind it's tearing me apart
She went back over to her own mic.
All: Falling for you
Falling for you
I fell for you
(I'm falling)
Falling for you
(I'm falling)
Falling for you
I fell for
"We did great!" Luke said. "Chris, are you OK, you seem a little off."
"No Luke, I'm fine." Chris insisted. Suddenly his vision blurred and he couldn't keep his balance. "I'm…fine."
Chris fell over and collapsed on the stage.
"Chris!" Allie cried. "Chris, what's wrong? Are you ok?"
"I can't feel my legs." he whispered. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Allie held his hand.
"Luke, call 9-1-1." Allie instructed. Luke took out his cell phone and called for an ambulance.
Several minutes later, Chris loaded onto an ambulance on a stretcher. He was rushed to St. Hope's Hospital. Allie and Luke got their parents to drive her to the hospital. Chris's parents were informed and they went to the hospital too.
Everybody was scared for Chris' sake, especially Allie.
