NEW CHAPPY
Chapter 1
The Horrible Day
Joe’s POV
I ran in the lawn on a cold winter day. It had snowed the night before and now there was a white blanket around the house. My best friend, Jasmine, was over at our house. She smiled and throw a snowball at me. I threw one back, and it landed in her brown, long hair. She laughed and floated back on the snow.
I ran over and fell next to her, well tripped and fell. We made snow angels. “I don’t want to go back to school! I love snow days!” Jasmine said. I got up, and helped Jasmine to her feet. “Who does?” I asked. She shrugged and smiled. We ran off into the house and drank hot chocolate.
“Hello, kids,” my mom walked in. “Hi, Mrs. Jonas,” Jasmine greeted. “Hey, mom.” We talked and laughed. Mom left and we watched TV and went on Twitter. It was kool; none of our friends had a Twitter so it was just us. Mom and Dad walked in. “Jasmine, do you think you could head home?” mom asked. I shook my head. Jasmine was my best friend, and I cared for her. The thing was, her mom was a drug addict, and her father always beat her. She only told me, trusting me.
But my parents knew, he had gone to jail for a while, but was still allowed to be with her. And she comes to school with bruises, a graceful girl. “Um, do you think it would be alright if I could stay here?” Jasmine asked slowly. My mom nodded and my dad said, “ok, but you will have to sleep on the couch.” She beamed with joy. I smiled.
We were both 15. Kevin was 17, Nick was 13, and Frankie was 11. Jasmine ended up sleeping in my room while I slept on the couch.
When I woke, the snow was all melted. I walked into the kitchen and Jasmine was already dressed. “Good morning Prince weird hair,” she greeted me, kindly I might add. “Thanks Miss wannabe know-it-all,” I said, petting the top of her head. She laughed.
Most of the day passed of nothing. We decided to go to the roller rink and chill. Nick and Kevin came along, too. It got really muggy in there, so Jasmine and I went outside for a little while. We were talking when a car with really loud music passed by on the road. They looked suspicious, there were three of them. One of them had a bottle in their hand.
One guy popped his head out and… the rest went by really fast. I gulped. My hear beat got faster as the boom came. It struck Jasmine in the chest. “JASMINE!! DAMN IT! NO!!” I screamed. Kevin came out, but stopped by the entrance by the entry guy. Then, I felt a sudden flash of… nothing. It didn’t feel like nothing. It hurt like heck. I knew I had been shot, too.
