~ Brooklyn's POV ~

*flashback*

"Oh my gosh! How much longer do we have to sit here? I want to go home!" My best friend Sydney is sitting next to me complaining. Did I mention we're currently sitting in school, last period of the day?

"Syd calm down, there is like 5 minutes left and then we can leave." The last 5 minutes of my history class, I was very, very antsy. I just needed to go home. My mom texted me last period saying that she had big news to tell me!

*ding ding*

The final bell rang signaling I was free to go. I quickly scooped up my books and ran to my locker in a rush, wanting to get home to know this 'big news' my mom had for me. I grabbed my bag and walked to Sydney's locker at the other side of the school like I do everyday so we could walk home. Our houses were on the same street just around the corner from the school so we had to walk everyday, sigh.

"Syd, hurry your ass up! I need to get home! Come on hurry hurry hurry!"

"My god Brooklyn, why are in such a rush?! im almost done." She mumbled some very. colorful words under her breath thinking I couldn't hear her. Well joke's on you Syd! I have ears. Us as seventh graders, very descriptive vocabulary we have. I know, bad ass.

"Just hurry up, I'll tell you on the way."

It usually takes about a 15 minute walk to get home, but since I really wanted to get home, it took a little under 10 minutes. I don't know why, but I had a good feeling of what I was about to hear. That is until I actually found out...

When I got home, what my mom told me, yeah I wasn't very please about it...

She told me that we were moving. To where?Mullingar, Ireland because of my mom's job. Oh the joys of moving, she thought sarcastically. I currently live an ocean away from there in the wonderful lands of Ohio. Pretty far, I know. But anyway, I was so mad I ran upstairs to find my room empty, everything already in boxes. How peachy. I was told by my mother, who by the way im not to happy with at the moment, that we will be leaving tomorrow morning. Yaaay... That leaves me not to long to say good bye to all of my friends.

You're probably wondering why im only talking about my mom? Simple, im an only child and my dad left us when I was only one years old.

So what's on the agenda for when I wake up tomorrow morning? I get to hop on a plane for a 13 hour flight to Ireland. (A/N: i really dont know how long it takes to get there from Ohio, but if any of you know, please let me know and i will change it!)

"WHAT?! Brooklyn you cant leave me! Please just don't leave! What will I do with out you?" Tears stream down both of our faces. This is going to be harde than I thought. To leave my home, my best friend, boy am I going to miss this place.

"Syd, im so sorry, I really don't want to go but I have to..."

"Promise to skype me, text me, call me, when ever you can?"

"I pink promise." With that, we linked our pinkys together and she engulfed me into the biggest, tightest hug ever. God, im going to miss her. I cant leave my best friend.

It's now 10:30 at night and im walking home from Sydney's house in tears. I really don't want to leave. What will there be to do in Ireland? Will people like me? Are they going to think im weird? Will I be able to actually make friends let alone socialize? So many questions, I just don't even know what to do. Guess we will find out in 18 hours when I arrive in my new town. 5 more ours till I have to leave. 4:00 am flight, oh joy. On the bright side I can sleep the whole way there.

18 hours later, here I am, in Mullingar. Today is Saturday and I was told im going to be starting at my new school on Monday. Honestly? Im really nervous of what people will think of me. A school full of kids with Irish accents, and then there's me. A boring American accent. Im already missing Ohio and all of my friends, hopefully I will make new ones here. Guess we will have to find out, now wont we?
