A better place

Chapter 6

Clarke P.O.V.

I feel like a shit. Everyone suddenly started to make fun of me, even the new girl. I started to think that maybe Octavia was my savior? No, she choose Raven over you, she's not a real friend. Maybe I should call Finn? No, I can't talk with him, he's not the person that gives you an advice.

,,Sweetie, please come downstairs!" My mom shouts, from the living room.

I come downstairs, and I see that mom and Marcus is really nervous. ,,What is it?"

,,Well, you know.. We were thinking and..."My mom starts to struggle.

,,Just spit it out" I say.

,,Me and Marcus are going on vacation for two months, I'm so sorry, but we can't take you. You have to go to college." She finally says.

,,Okay, when are you leaving and will I be able to bring my friends home?" I don't have friends right now, but just in case I still ask.

,,So here is the bad part, well we will rent our house to a couple with a child, until we are back. You will have to live in a college dorm. I'm sorry Clarke, but we decided that you should meet new people."

How does she considers this as bad news? I'll probably have a nice roommate, and I'll be able to stay in parties as much long as I want. ,, Mom, I think this is good news. I really should meet new people. Also ,I know that you both need a break from work."

* two weeks later*

My mom helps me to get my bag in my room.

,, I will miss you so much Clarke. But I promise time will pass quickly, and you will be able to come home. I love you baby." My mom seems like she's tearing up.

,,It's okay mom, don't cry. Just have a great holidays with Marcus. I will miss you too. I promise I'll call you every day." I say with a fake smile, to calm her down.,, I love you too mom. Now go home and get some sleep. I don't want you to be exhausted tomorrow. Mom kisses me in a cheek. We hug and say goodbye to  each other. And then she leaves.

I don't have a roommate right now, but I'm hoping that I will have one later.

Well, if I want to have friends again, I should probably start with Octavia.

Clarke: Hi, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. Would I still get the chance to be your friend?

Octavia: Hello Clarke it's been a long time. I actually missed talking with you, so yes, you will get a chance.

Clarke: Okay, so what do I have to do?

Octavia: You know what.

Clarke: Talk to Raven?

Octavia: Yes, you have got smarter in the past two weeks:).

Clarke: I know ;). What if she won't talk to me?

Octavia: Well, that will be her problem then, not ours.

Clarke: Okay I'm going to text her now. Bye.

Octavia: Bye!

I have Raven's number since the seventh grade, so I call her.

,,Hi, this is Clarke.''

,,I know, what do you want?" Oh, god this is going to be hard.

,,I want to meet you and talk, I am really sorry for everything that happened in the past, and I want to become friends again" I hope I won't regret this.,, I understand if you don't want to talk with me, but I really need a friend right now."

,, Yep, I could use a friend now too, but how do I know that you won't kill me" She says. I really missed her jokes.

,,You don't" I respond.

,, Well then I'll meet you in hell. I'm going to pick you up in ten minutes. If you won't stand near your door when I get there, you will walk. Muah." She's ready to hang up, like I used to do, but I stop her.

,,I don't live in my house right now, so just tell me your room number and I'll to come to you".

,, You live in the same dorm as me now? That's so cool! If everything goes fine with us then me, Octavia and you will be able to hang out together."

,,So it better go fine, right?" I ask.

,,Yep,it better" Raven snaps and hangs up
