suspicion over nothing??

i lay my head on masons chest as we watched his choice of movie this time I thought it would be terrible but turns out not everything he likes is that bad,
"maze?" He mumbled as I lay there
"You awake or sleeping?"
"shh mase sleep."
"okay" he held me keeping me warm

"Maisie?"
"mhm"
"why weren't you answering my calls."
"oh I'm just busy"
"what are you doing"
"eh I'm uhm rearranging the living room
that's it."
"okay I'll text you later"
"mhm"
I ended the call.

The streets of london puddles in the holes the council never fixed, the people who got dogs regretting it being forced to walk in the rain, the people late for their Ubers, the children running with their mums to the shops hiding from the rain
Life it was so strange how could I be stood here now breathing seeing all the lights around London
I pulled up my hood and started walking til I would
the cafe I promised to meet my grandparents in.

CARRIES CAFE

the sign bold with lights around the name to brighten it I walked in and pulled my hood down.

"mai"
"granny" she pulled me into a hug
"I missed you sweetheart"
"I missed you aswell both of you." She released me From the hug as I wrapped my arms around my grandpas shoulders as I spoke
"my Mai-zee" he spoke making a smile spread across my face.
"how've your been sweetheart"
"eh good"
"you don't sound to convinced."
"you guys know about Jackson?"
"yes we're so sorry he treated you like that."
"I'm better now it's alright."
"sweetheart we're moving back to Florida in around 3 weeks."
tahts when my smile dropped the penny dropped that's why I've been invited out for lunch, I thought maybe one of my 5th cousins had passed or something but no my grandparents are leaving.
"what why?"
"there's more for us there london and Manchester was never really are spot your mother loves it here but we never did"
"but you guys can't leave how am I supposed to tell you I need to talk over a call when your like 8 hours behind me."
"we will work it out it will be perfect we can buy you your tickets to see us and you can visit us all the time!" I broke my heart knowing my grandparents were gonna leave like this But I had to be happy this was important to them and they were happy.
