I Think About You

Chapter 1: Moving Day

Laura's POV//
I was walking home by myself, again. Vanessa was busy with play practice or something and I was stuck walking home alone. I was walling on the sidewalk and texting Amber, my best friend.

Laura: Ugh, have to walk home...AGAIN!!

Amber: Haha, have fun Laur 😉

Laura: You're such a buttsack

Amber: "Buttsack"? That's new.

Laura: You bet your Jeep it is

Amber: Alright, Laur, talk later?

Laura: duh

Laura's POV (again)//
I was still walking and I was about 5 yards away from my house. I checked my weather app and it was 104 degrees, I was sweating A LOT. I got to the house and started searching for my keys. I found them and unlocked the door and walked inside. I froze. "What is this?" I pointed around myself at all the cardboard boxes and the empty living room.

Ellen: Oh honey, we are moving!
Laura: Aren't we going to wait for dad to get back from Italy??
Ellen: No sweetie, I have to tell you something, your father isn't coming back.
Laura: Wh-What? Why?!
Ellen: Well, we have decided that we are going to visit him rather than him visiting us. You know his work is permanently there from now on so we will visit him, since we're coming back.
Laura: *sighs* Okay, but why are we moving? What about my friends? Where are we moving? Why is this so sudden?
Ellen: You'll know why at dinner
Laura: What about my friends?
Before she could hear me, she went back upstairs to finish her packing. I was so confused. I pulled out my phone and texted Amber. Couldn't my family move AFTER the school year?

Laura: Hey

Amber: What's up? You usually do your homework right after school.

Laura: I'm moving.

Amber: Stop it Laur, you're so funny! "Moving" hahahaha

Laura: I'm serious, we leave in a week to I don't even know where, I'll know by dinner.

Amber: Wait. REALLY?!?😢

Laura: Yeah A, I have to run, but I will tell you where at 7

5 Hours later
Laura's POV//
I moped downstairs when mom called me for dinner. Nessa was already sitting at the table playing on her phone and mom was setting the table. I sat down and looked at my lap. In the middle of dinner mom FINALLY brought up the moving subject. "CALIFORNIA?!" I screamed and spit out my water.
Vanessa: Yeah, I'm going to be on "Switched at Birth"
Ellen: Isn't that exciting?
Laura: No...I mean yes...no I mean no. I don't know it's bittersweet. Nessa, I'm so proud of you for getting a part in a TV show, but what about my friends? California is 3,000 miles away from Maine.
Ellen: I'm sorry Laura, but V couldn't pass up this opportunity. Besides, you'll make PLENTY of friends at Beverly Hills High School.

MOVING DAY//
Laura's POV//
We just arrived at the airport and I already hate it. California was the opposite of Maine. Maine was quiet and calm and relaxing, but Cali is stress and stardom. We soon got into the taxi as it took us to our new house. That's the only thing I like about this move, the house. It's a gorgeous modern stone house that was 10 times larger than my old house. It was located on top of a large hill with a pool. I walked inside and couldn't believe it, I actually liked this house. "I CALL DIBS ON A BIG ROOM" I stated since I never get a big room.
Ellen: Don't worry Laura, you and V will have the same sized rooms.
I bolted upstairs and looked at all the rooms and started unpacking. Maybe California won't be that bad.
