Fractured Love

Chapter 3

I had imagined and planned out my senior year all summer and that plan began with an amazing first day, what was not in the plan however was my parents deciding to move me to a small town in Utah. Cause let me tell you the one thing that will absolutely ruin your first day of senior is being the new girl.

I managed to avoid Jonathan and Kyle for the rest of the week. Our only exchanges consisted of awkward looks that occurred when they saw me around town. At least seeing Kyle doesn't hurt as much as seeing Jonathan does and besides even if Kyle and I where on speaking terms it's not like I would be able to tell him how much seeing Jonathan hurts me because Kyle never knew about us.

I know it is such a cliche, the girl hiding the fact that she dated her best friends brothers, gives real The Kissing Booth vibes but just like in that movie Kyle and I had a rule that I would never date his brother and if he found out I broke that rule he would lose his shit.

"Lily wake up or your gonna be late" I hear my mom call out. "Lily you better be out of bed if not you can't blame me and dad when your late" I hear her call out again five minutes later

"Jesus mom calm down I'm up," I yell back with my eyes still closed.

I get up for the first day of school looking like crap. It's different sleeping here, cause in New York I had gotten so used to the traffic and noise throughout the night that it became some sort of a lullaby for me but here it is completely silent throughout the night and I'm struggling with it.

I rummage through my wardrobe which is now full after my mother forced me to unpack my boxes. I pull out a blue v-neck cropped sweater, a pair of black ripped skinny jeans and a pair converse. I tie my red hair up into a messy bun and make my way downstairs expecting my mom to have a nice breakfast prepped like she usually does on my first day of school but when I get down there I see nothing on the table, the kitchen doesn't even look like it's been used and there is no sign of my mother.

"Morning darling," My dad says giving me a kiss on the head and walking past me as I stand at the bottom of the stairs.

"Uh dad, where's mom?" I ask.

"Oh your mother had to head into work, you know it's her first day too," My dad says. Mom had gotten a job as the head of communications at the mayors office, she had been working her ass off for head of communications at the mayors office in New York for years but they constantly overlooked her which makes me understand why she took this job.

I make my way to the kitchen and grab myself some breakfast, I sit there eating as my dad is walking around trying to gather everything he needs for today. Dad's got a new job as well, he was able to score a teaching position at the high school which is another score in the con column for this town because in New York there are dozens of high schools meaning that my dad could teach at one and I could attend a completely different one but there is only one high school in this town which means not only am I the new girl but I'm also the new teachers daughter.

"Hey dad we gotta go or we'll be late" I yell out to him. Another down side is that I can't even drive myself to school because I don't have me license and I know it's strange for a seventeen year old to not have a license but growing up in New York city you never needed one, I can literally just get the subway everywhere.

I have dad drop me a block from school because walking into school with your parent stops being cool after kindergarden. I have mixed emotions whilst approaching the school, on one hand I am nervous and upset about having to start over but on the other hand Clover Falls high is an all new social scene for me to conquer but if the girls here are anything like Jon's girlfriend then it might be harder than I though to conquer the social scene.
