This week has gone by fast already. School starts tomorrow.
Aunt Jules was right, my car came yesterday just in time.
"Are you excited for school tomorrow?" Aunt Jules questions.
"I'm honestly nervous, I hope I make at least one friend," I say.
"You'll make plenty of friends! You are so lovable" she says squeezing my cheeks.
"Thank you, Aunt Jules" I smile.
She winks at me "Anytime stells"
We're on our way to the gym for a little bit, we decided to sign up as it could be a way for me to let my frustrations and anxiety out.
She knows about my other coping mechanisms and wants me to try this out.
I also start therapy with my therapist on Wednesday.
This time it's a lady, her name is Dr. Clair, I'm nervous about a new therapist.
I hope she's nice to me, I hope this works out.
"What do you want to do first?" Aunt Jules asks as she looks around.
"Let's go on the treadmill!" She nods and we head to the two unoccupied ones.
We start slowly by walking and with every song that plays we level up and go faster until we're running.
We're there for two hours, and at 8 pm we head home.
"So what did you think about it?" She asks, looking sweaty.
"I think I like it, I also think it'll help," I say hopeful about this.
"Good, whenever you get the urge to do things to yourself that you shouldn't be doing. You can head over to the gym" she says pulling into the driveway.
She parks it and we head inside, my room has my bathroom and so we go our separate ways to get ready for bed.
I do my shower routine, taking my time.
Once I'm done, I head to Aunt Jule's room.
I find her sitting down on her bed reading a book.
"You know what I realized while I was showering," I say getting her attention.
"What's that?" She questions curiously.
"Coleson always finds his way back to me," I say quietly, "but what I don't understand is why? If he's not good for me, he's a criminal" I said laughing slightly.
"The universe is weird like that, maybe you guys are meant to be but it's never the right time"
Maybe she was right, maybe it's never the right time with us.
We continue talking for a little and then I head to bed.
Tomorrow is my first day of school!

My alarm goes off at exactly six am, I click snooze and decide I'll wake up the next time it goes off.
The next alarm came away too quickly for my liking, but I get up nevertheless.
This school year is going to be different, this time no one will know who I am.
I'm allowed to be my old self again, I'm going to try out for cheerleading and everything will be okay again.
I pack my gym clothes for tryouts and head out of my room once I'm done with everything.
"Good morning stells" Aunt Jules says greeting me.
