Never would've thought- Colby Brock

1~saying goodbye

"I'm going to miss you so much em" emily is your best friend in Kansas, you've known each other for a very long time now. "I'm gonna miss you so much more Beth " she said "I can't believe I'm leaving you I feel so bad" I sigh.

"I know but I will come visit I will make my mom buy me a ticket, so don't feel bad it's not your fault" she smirks.

I start to ugly cry "stop crying you'll make me sadder" she starts to ugly cry too. "I can't help it you bitch" you said jokingly. My mom knocks on the door. "Come in" you say wiping your tears. She came in and said  "I know it will be hard but you will be able to visit each other" giving us both a soft smile.

"I have to start packing" I said while getting up and gathering my clothes from the floor. "We are leaving at 8am tomorrow honey" my mom said "is it ok if em spends the night her dad will pick her up from here tomorrow?" I ask my mom. "Of course she can, well goodnight don't stay up too late I love you both" she smiles "we love you too mom thank you and we won't" she nods in return and closed the door.

I start packing all my clothes since I already packed all my posters and things like that. After that me and em laid down next to each other talking.

We didn't really have anything to talk about but we just needed to talk to each other before I leave. We soon fell asleep talking about the most random things we could think of.

*Time skip to morning*

"Beth, em time to wake up" my mom says while slightly opening the door. We both look at each other since we are sleeping on the same bed. We both start tearing up.

I sigh and rub my eyes. I got up and so did Emily. Me and em have been friends since 5th grade and we are leaving each other now it's obviously gonna be hard. We finished getting ready and head out to the car, my moms already inside. Me and em just look at each other for a minute and start to cry.

"Beth love you so so much" is all she could say before tightly hugging me goodbye. I just look at her and say "em I will call you every night I promise I love you so much" as I start to ugly cry.

I get into the car and my mom starts to drive to the airport. We talked about how hard it's gonna be to leave but it's for the better.

I felt all the emotions sadness, excitement and anger. I couldn't get over we are leaving. i've lived in Kansas my whole life, i'm scared for the change. We get to the airport and get through everything fine, I text Emily letting her know we are there and safe.

Me and my mom got some snacks and Starbucks. After about 30 minutes later we got onto the plane.

It was gonna be hard to leave but it's for the best. You knew you were an introvert so you were scared for meeting new people. You were dreading going to a new school but you had to. You were going to miss your hometown but your also exited to move. You've only ever been in Kansas your whole life so a lot was going to change.

*time skip to being there*

We got there it was around 2 because the time difference. We got a cab to go to our new house I put my AirPods in a put on "honestly" by lil peep.

It took around 45 minutes to get there. I kept seeing palm trees and really pretty views. We finally got to the house it was pretty big house like most of them here. it was very different from my old house.

We walked in and it was really nice. Big windows, really big rooms and a nice staircase leading upstairs. It was definitely a modern house.

There were a couple of rooms so my mom let me pick what I wanted first. I of course picked the one with the my own bathroom. I started school tomorrow since it was Sunday today.

I texted Emily to let her know I made it here safe. I started to unpack my clothes and hung up some of my posters and albums. sighing at a photo of me and emily i hung it up close to my bed.

I got bored of it and decided to go on a walk to see more of the neighborhood. I told my mom that I was going out she said "ok be safe honey love you" while smiling "love you too" I said back.

I walked outside closing the door behind me. I went on the street and put my AirPods in. It seemed peaceful I liked it here.

I knew it was going to take awhile to get used to it but for now it seemed ok. I saw girls my age walk past me and whispering I didn't really care I'm used to it.

Me and Emily back at our old school were the 'weird quiet kids' that literally no one liked.

I saw a cute little coffee shop so I went inside. There was little cute posters, it was crowded so many people where there.

I got just a frappe I just got the first one I saw. It was actually pretty good. Prices were expensive as fuck though. I payed and went outside. I found a park and I just chilled there on the swings on my phone for a little. I realized it was getting kind of late so I headed back home.

*time skip to home*

I changed into my pajamas since it was 10:00pm. I brush my teeth and hair then wash my face. I put my speaker up not too loud to wake my mom.

I played "change" by deftones. I went on snap and insta before jumping onto my bed.

I laid in bed, staring at my ceiling. I was getting nervous to go to a new school and meet new people because I'm introverted and don't like meeting new people.

I started to overthink. What if people don't like me? What if I'm the 'annoying new girl'? What if I'm dumb to everyone there? I couldn't stop.

That's why me and em got along so well we got each other. We didn't like hanging out with a ton of people. We like just being ourselves and we couldn't do that with anyone else.

We didn't really have friends so leaving each other was like breaking up with someone. It was a terrible feeling.

I FaceTimed em and she picked up almost right away. I was happy to see her face again. We talked for about a hour I asked how her cat was of course.

I told her about how big the houses where here and how I got the nicest room of course. I fell asleep waiting to see what tomorrow will bring.
