My parents were getting a divorce, out of the blue. I didn't know what to think, I didn't know what to say. I was so worried it was my fault, but at the same time I felt relieved that they didn't have to put on an act anymore. I love my dad and I love my mom, but if they are happier apart, that's what they should do.

Moving to a new place is always hard, especially for me. I'm not very good at making friends and I have a low self-esteem. The only things about me that I like is my blonde hair with natural platinum blonde highlights, and my bright blue eyes that change to green when I cry. I'm 16 and I have never had a boyfriend. I had one best friend that had been with me for 8 years but she left me because she thought her boyfriend was cheating on her with me. She went to all the popular kids, who had been asking her if she wanted to be part of their group for a long time. She was so beautiful and kind, with jet black hair extending to her midsection, and beautiful dark brown eyes that were so dark they were almost black. As a straight girl, I would say she was quite hot. Her name was Amy Kate.

Until that fateful day. We were 14 and she was drunk. She came to my house in the middle of the night and she was calling me names and being a bitch in general. I was so surprised and her attitude was scaring me. She told me she was coming in and I just let her come in because I thought she needed help, so I gestured her into the living room. She was being loud and freaking out, but I wasn’t worried because my parents were out for a week on a business trip.

She sat on the couch and patted the spot next to her so I sat down. She then told me how much she loved me and I just smiled and told her I loved her too. I thought she meant it in a friendly way. I was wrong she moved in so close, and kissed me on my lips, I backed away. Terrified. She started crying and I comforted her telling I’m sorry. She told me if I’m truly sorry I would kiss her again. I told her I couldn’t do that. That made her so angry, she forced herself on me. I’m forever scarred. Never able to trust again.

A week later the police knocked on my door and asked me and my parents to come to the station. When we got there they took my mom in first, then my dad, then my brother, my sister and finally me. As I went in the first thing they asked was “Are you aware of the recent discovery of Amy Kate’s death?” I felt my heart drop. Even though she had raped me, I still instantly burst out crying. “Do you have anything to do with the murder of miss Kate?” Said the investigator. I just stared at him and shook my head while still crying. He left the room for a few minutes and came back with a box of tissues. “Is there anything you would like to tell us?” He asked gently, trying to avoid making my cry again. I opened my mouth about to tell him about the night. Then I quickly stopped. Realizing my mistake he asked me “Miss Lola. Is there something you know about happening to her or you?” He emphasized the last part. I shook my head. 

A month later, the some investigator came to my house and asked to speak with me. “The case is closed, we found the murderer.” He said slowly. I felt a wave of relief. “The person who murdered Amy Kate...” He paused for a second, “… Is Amy Kate. It was a suicide.” I stared at him my jaw dropping.

From then on I separated my mind from the world around me. Blocking everyone out. In a way the move was good because I could try to start over again. To think, I, Lola Belle, am going to move to England with my mother and my siblings. I would miss my dad but I wasn’t super close to him. I silently wished myself good luck as we boarded the plane. When the flight attendant announced we could turn on electronics, I turned on my iPod and plugged in my earphones, and the 11 hour flight flew by as if were 4. Music is my life, my day, my night, my breath of fresh air, my one true love. In my book nobody came above music. 

As I got off the plane I breathed in the London air determined to start a new life
