Tw: misgendering, deadnaming

I had spoken to trav about him taking the business over if I got the job and he was completely ecstatic to have an opportunity to run the business which was great because I wouldn't trust anyone else with it. We were gonna go in today to explain to the kids that I might not be there for much longer, so I got up early and ate a quick breakfast before getting my bag packed with some clothes and I put my martial arts uniform on as well.

"Trav come on!" I shouted from the front door, he always took forever getting dressed and it was quite annoying. When they came out I threw him a drink, "what's this?" "Breakfast, drink it fast or it doesn't taste nice" "bitch you think im drinking this.." "yes we don't have time to be making a cooked breakfast." He just whined and whined, before giving in and drinking it, he actually liked it, which shocked me considering they were a very picky eater. I drove us to the centre and there were a few kids already waiting outside "Hey guys come in well get a warm-up started. Jordan where are your parent bud?" She looked around "well my mum can't make it, she's got a sickness bug and my dad is just at the store." I smiled at her "No worries then, come get yourselves sighed in and go to the floor so we can wait for the others. Trav go with them set up a class, you're gonna be teaching them." He nodded and perked up with energy to get the kids hyped up. We still had ten minutes before the 10-16s class begun and we were still having people signing in. I sat at the office and made sure that if anyone needed anything I could give it to them.

"Trav it's 10AM start the class!" I could hear music playing, signalling he had started, we got a few late comers but they arrived so that was all that mattered. I joined in with the class and at the end explained that I wasn't going to be there for much longer if I got the job. The kids were upset about it but they understood that I couldn't be everywhere at once. We all had a big cuddle so they could say goodbye to me, it hurt having to say goodbye especially to the ones I had taught since they were 4. After saying goodbye I made my way to the staff locker room, someone had been in my bag, they had taken my mocking Jay necklace, I vegan to panic, I couldn't lose that necklace it meant too much to me. "Trav!!" I began shouting, feeling my chest become tighter. He ran in and saw me dropping to my knees "Syd what's wrong!" They cradled me making sure that I could breathe "my necklace... it's gone!" He cursed under his breath " we'll get it back. I promise.." he kept on reassuring me that I we would find it and decided to ask the kids to see if they might've seen something. A little girl, Sadie told us she had seen my boyfriend entering the locker room. "Sadie I don't have a boyfriend.." she nodded "Yeah you do.. Jeremiah" a pit grew in my stomach the second she said his name, I began breathing heavier, I grew angrier "syd- calm down. Think about the kids" I shook my head and left the centre. He had some fucking nerve to come in here and steal the thing that mattered most to me. I arrived at his and stacy's house, I knocked on as loud as I  could, he was home, I could hear him. "OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR!" He was ignoring me. So I called Stacy, I had fixed thing with her and we were friends again "stace. Are you home? No, right do you keep a spare key anywhere, Jeremiah has a few of my things and I want them back... thank you so much, okay by lobe ya" I ended the call and looked behind her post box and found the key. I opened the door and caught a photo of Jeremiah with another woman. "Sydney! Care to join us." He laughed, a devilish grin printed on his face. "Where is it." "Where is what?" "My necklace. I know you have it." "No idea what you're on about." I showed him the photo "you sure. I really hope you figure out where it is, I mean it wouldn't be the best for Stacy to find out that you're cheating on her after you promised you've changed." The woman he was with went white "You said you were single!" He shouted for her to come back and she stormed out. "The necklace or the photo gets leaked" he smirked "Emily. You ain't got the nerve" I laughed and clicked the share button, he immediately began to plead with me "you sure about that. The necklace. Now" he stood up and walked over to his room. Pulling out a lock box and a key, "No I'm opening it." I said holding on to my phone. He handed me the key and I opened the box to find at least 20 photos of me, ones that I had taken, ones he had taken and ones he had stolen from my social media. I picked up the lock box and began to leave. "Emily wait-" I stopped and turned around "you know that's not my name-" he laughed and I clicked the send button "NO!" "Oops- finger slipped" he ran at me and I ran from the house, jumping into my car and driving off as quickly as possible. I probably shouldn't have sent Stacy that photo, I didn't want to hurt her but he was asking for it. I got a text from her that read "what a fucking prick, just wait till I get home, thanks sydI thought he was cheating, now I have proof" I laughed at the text, thankful she wasn't angry at me.

I drove around thinking of ways to clear my life of Jeremiah and decided I needed a complete makeover. I knew exactly who to call. Fuck it. I need a new start I clicked dial and let it ring, placing it on speaker. "Hello." "Demi, hi. Are you busy?" "No, why" I pumped my fists, if there was anyone who knew anything about completely changing your looks, it was her. "I need a makeover, like a big one, I want to rid my life of my ex and I need help. I'd ask Izzy but the style I'm looking for doesn't exactly match with hers. Yours however, does." I could hear her laughing a little " where shall we meet." I almost jumped out of my seat, I was do excited "umm, meet my by curl up on main in 10 minutes" "I'll be there. See ya" the call ended and I changed my direction, heading towards the hair salon I had mentioned. This was gonna be so fun!!
