Chapter 4

 

By Melissa

 

Charisma sat in English class as she tapped her pencil on the desk boredly.  All her teacher, Mr. Evans, did was talk, talk, and talked more.  She thought he talked more then a woman!  Charisma stared at the clock and sighed.  Another half an hour with this teacher was too long.  He never really got to the point of his talking so the class just sat there while he talked for the whole two periods.  She put her head down on the desk and covered her face with her arms.  She lay there for a second and closed her eyes, not prepared for what she was about to see.

She saw Nick, AJ, Howie, Kevin and the chunky man in her dream from before.  They were talking about something.  It had to be serious because Kevin looked like he had tears in his eyes, and so did Nick.

"How could you make us perform during Brian's heart surgery?  That's a time he's gonna need us there for him!" Kevin almost yelled.
       

"Don’t you dare raise your voice to me! You’re performing, and that's final," the chunky man said as he walked out of the room leaving the four guys sitting there mumbling swear words under their breath.  The dream started to get darker as she was being taken to another part of the dream. It got brighter as she noticed she was in a white hospital room.  She turned around and saw Brian laying in a hospital bed and a woman with blonde hair sitting in the chair next to the bed.  She looked a few years older then Brian and she was holding his hand.  She had to be his girlfriend because she knew Brian didn’t have any older sisters.  She saw a doctor walk into the room as Brian and his girlfriend looked at him.
       

"Are you ready for your surgery, Brian?" the doctor asked, as Brian nodded slowly.
       

"I love you Leigh," Brian said as his girlfriend kissed him.
       

"I love you too Brian," his girlfriend said as the nurses came in and were getting ready to wheel him into surgery.  They started wheeling his bed out of the room and down the hall as Kevin, Howie, AJ and Nick ran down the hall.
       

"Hold on a second!" Howie yelled, as they stopped wheeling Brian's bed down the hall. They all ran up to the bed as her dream started to get dark.

"Charisma, wake up," the girl sitting next to her, Christy, said, as she lifted up her head.
     

"English is over," Christy said as Charisma nodded and got up, grabbing her books.  She started to get scared as she walked out of the room.  What kind of surgery was Brian having?  Was he going to die?  Was that why she didn’t get to see the rest of the dream?  She walked down the hall thinking about it as she went to her next class.
