Untouchable

This post is for teenagers that are 14-18. It is an experience that some kids within this age group experience in scenarios common to the one in this post. Enjoy....

Everything was a blur to me that day. It started off fine, we were all at a party hanging out and then it got out of control…I never imagined I would try it, but somehow I was persuaded into trying it. It was out of control, it was crazy, and it was unreal.

The party started unusually early, my girlfriends and I were excited because our crushes were going to be there. Everyone was drinking and then out of nowhere some random kid I had never seen before pulls out a huge bag of coke. Everyone was doing it; I was scared because I knew my turn would soon come up. I didn’t know how to say no, I didn’t say no.

I was afraid I wasn’t going to snort it right, that everyone would laugh at me, but I didn’t have a problem. Just after two minutes my body became numb and my emotions were running. I felt extremely happy, and I felt in control of everything. At that point, nothing could upset me; it did not cross my mind that what I had done was wrong. I was on top of the world and no one could ruin my high. The party had gotten out of control and a neighbour had called the police, not the greatest thing when almost everyone in the house is high on drugs.

Before I knew it, my two friends Jake and Felicia grabbed me and ran out the back door through the connecting alley. It was raining outside and the cold rain felt relaxing on my bare arms. Everything was blurry, the lights were more colourful then they usually appear for me. All I could see was the rain and whoosh of our legs moving. We were running fast. My heart was thumping so fast I thought it was going to pop out of my chest.

I wont ever forget this night, the colours, the blur, and the running we did. It was memorable, but something I will never do again. However, the feeling I got was indescribable, something that I’m afraid to think of because it makes me want to go back to it; Go back to the night where I was running with the ice cold rain melting against my heated body.
