Chapter 2

"... We will going on a 3 day field trip to Vancouver, B.C. next week. Pack everything you might need. That's it. Class dismissed." Everyone quickly shoved all their books in their bags as the bell rang.

I was in last period. Art. I love this class. We would go to different places in the world to view their artwork. The last one we went to was in Africa. It was quite interesting.

After I walked out of the classroom, I went to my locker and put everything in the locker. I walked to the gym, where the dance was held, with Skylar.

"So. How was school today?" She asked me. "Boring as usual. We're going to Vancouver next week for art." I said. "I really should've signed up for art. I mean, you're traveling the whole world!" She said using hand motions.

As we walked into the gym, there were blaring lights everywhere. The place was covered in pink and red. I quickly ran up to Tyler with Skylar behind me. "Well I'm going to leave you two lovebirds be." She said winking before walking away.

"Hey babe." Tyler said to me kissing me on the forehead. "Listen. I gotta tell you something. I'm not feeling erm, the way I felt before. I think we need a break." He said to me while eyeing Holly up and down.

I rolled my eyes. "What a lame excuse. You just want Holly don't you?" I said.

"Or you could put it like that..." He said rubbing the back of his neck. "Bye." I said to him before I walked away and went to Skylar.

"OMG are you okay? I saw what happened." She asked me as I walked out of the gym. I just shook my head.

"It's ok. I'm moving to another school in a few weeks anyway." I said. Well, it was correct. I would be moving to the opposite side of Florida. I would start a new school and a new life.

"I'll be back at the dance,k? Call me if you want." She said and went the opposite way.

I walked home and it started raining. Oh great, I thought. I ran the rest of the way. "Why are you home so early sweetie?" My mom asked. "Oh, I was tired." I said, avoiding eye contact.

I went to my room and took out my diary. I always kept one since grade 6. It became a little habit of mine. I flipped to a blank page and started writing.

Feb. 14, 2013

Well, I got dumped today. I knew this day was coming. But getting dumped at the valentine's dance? Not cool. I wish I could restart my life and never fall for him.

Holly is probably jumping over rainbows now. Tyler is single. She'll probably hit on him, get the fame, and dump his poor heart. I have warned him. Not that he ever listened. Oh well. His loss.

"Honey, I want you to start packing you room. We'll be looking at the new house tomorrow after school." My dad shouted up the stairs.

"Alright dad." I shouted back down. I took out a few boxes from the closet and started putting all the junk that is useless to me.

After 5 minutes, I decided to pack for the trip to Vancouver. It'll be the last trip I get to take in art class. When the next one comes, I'll be at a different school.

~Dinner Time~

We sat at a big circular table for dinner. Me, Carter on the right, then dad, and mom back on my left. "We have big news about the move." My dad said.

"We are moving because this house is very small. It isn't big enough for another baby." My mom said patting her stomach. Did I say we will have a newborn baby? Well, now I did.

"Also, I found a job at a radio station that twice as much as I get now. As a cop like me, you don't het much money." My dad announced.

"We are bringing Pepper, right?" Carter asked nervously. "Of course we are." My mom said exchanging glances with my dad. I don't think they remember about him.

I crossed my arms. "What school am I going to? Let me guess. Some lame school that doesn't know about me?" I said crossly.

"Now now. Don't use that attitude on me. I'm pretty sure they will know you once you befriend some of them." My mom said sternly.

"Excuse me. But may I be excused?" I pushed my plate away and without waiting for their answer, I left the kitchen.

As I walked back up to my room, Pepper pranced right on the heel of my foot. He followed me into my room.

"Pepper, what would you do if your complete life was taken away from you?" I asked my dog, who only ran back out the door to find Carter.

I changed into my pajamas, which is basically a t-shirt that says "Cupcakes Rule My World" and shorts. I crawled under the covers, and fell into a deep dreamless sleep.
