Something To Wish For

Why did this have to happen? I think about it everyday. Why was I the only one? They all are gone. They have been for a year now. And now, in just a couple days I am going to have to go to court with the person who did this to me. It is all a nightmare. I lost everything on that day. I didn't like all the attention afterwards. Nothing will ever fix this. Ever.

I am pretty sure you are wondering what happened by now. I can't tell you yet because you don't know me. I'll tell you who I am and what I am up to, and then maybe just maybe I will tell you.

My name is Maggie West. I am 14 years old and a freshman at Montgomery High. I have dirty blonde hair, green eyes, pink full lips, I am 5'5, and I weigh 113 pounds. I play club, school, and junior Olympics volleyball. I have 3 brothers named Jack, Marcus, and Brady. We are all two years apart- Marcus and Brady are twins and are older then me. I have a boyfriend named Michael- we have been together for 3 years now. <3 I love him so much.

My parents are divorced, and have been for 8 years. It took some getting used to in the begging, but I'm okay.

I live in Katy, Texas- probably not for long though, my mom never stays in the same place for long. My apartment is fine compared to other places I have been. My room is average, dinning room average, living area average, it all just works for a busy family like mine.

I still have scars from that day. I think that I might still have a bullet that they removed from my chest. No one talks to me about it, maybe because they think that I can't take it. They may be right about some of it, but I am strong, and they know that. After what happened to me and most of the people I care about my mom, my brothers, and I moved two city's over. But people still know what happened. No matter where we go people always look at me in the pitiful way you look at a crying baby. I don't think that they know that they have that emotion when is happens, but they do and I pisses me off.

I am not one of those typical girls with a chip on her shoulder that acts a certain way just for the attention. I don't want any attention. All I want to be is another face in the hallways of hell. It worked for a while. Then there was a year ago at our graduation party.

I still don't understand why he did it. We were just sitting there. Everything was in slow motion when he did it. I don't know if he was drunk, high, or he had a problem with us. We would never do anything like what he said we did. Why did he save me? I didn't know him. Why didn't he do it to anyone else? It doesn't make sense. He saved me...

Sorry this chapter was so short. I promise that the neat one will be longer and better.

Love y'all❤️
