Girls toilets- G block:
Anna is putting mascara and eyeliner on. Her friend is watching her efforts to glam her self up.
Anna: I don't know how to make myself any more noticeable! I've tried everything, I mean, I'm everywhere he is all the time!
Friend: Maybe you need to approach him now? Wait for him by his car after school and say hi or something. I'll see you later, I need to get to class. She leaves with out a hug or good luck, not very close friends, shows Anna's loneliness. 
College car park:
Cameron is already leaving college before Anna gets to his car to wait for him. In a desperate attempt to get him to stop so she can say hi, she stands in front of his car just as he looks at a text from Jake and so doesn't see Anna and hits her. As she roles out the way of the car he drives off not even realizing what he's done. She ends up dying.
Next day- car park:
Cameron in the car park driving trying to find a space listening to his CD. As he drives over the place where Anna got knocked down, his track changes half way through a song to 'Bring me to life.'
Cameron: Why do i have this song? It's shit! He changes the song back to the one he was listening to before, it then again changes back to 'Grenade'. Didn't know i had this song on my CD. Starts singing along to it. It cuts out and starts playing 'I don't believe you'. He try's to find 'Grenade again but it's not on his CD. He parks the car and gets out to go to G block. 
Boy's toilets:
Cameron is walking down the hallway towards the toilets. He walks into the disabled toilet in G block and goes to the toilet and then washes his hands. He looks up in the reflection and see's Anna behind him in the mirror. He jumps and turns round but there's no one there. He checks the door to see if he locked it and it's locked. He goes back to washing his hands, looks down and see's red coming off his hands, he looks for the source of blood on his hands or arms but there is none. He try's washing his hands with more soap and washing vigorously but it doesn't work. There's a bang on the door and Jake calls through. 
 Jake: Hey hurry up, we've got lesson!
Cameron: Jumps but opens the door Jake, don't ever do that again, scared the life outta me!
Jake: You look like you've seen a ghost or something! Laughs.
Cameron: I can't get this blood off my hands! I'm not bleeding either. He lifts his hands to show Jake. See?!
Jake: Mate, there's nothing there, look, dry your hands and we'll go play footie or something. Cameron takes the paper towel from Jake and, looking dazed, dry's his hands, looks down and there's no blood or red anywhere, just water. He looks in the sink for any sign of blood but there's nothing. fade-out.
