Ellie Point of view

5 Months After.

I was sat with my best friends Natalie and Amy, both really sweet yet nothing like Sophie or Lola. I hadn't talked to Charlie since I left to go here, I liked it here though. I missed Charlie more than anyone, he's probably forgotten about me now.

Charlie didn't call or anything, text, email. Nothing. Maybe he was waiting for me to. I still kept in contact with Leo, he let me know that Charlie was fine. Leondre was dating Lilly now as well. I was really happy for them both. Brad was depressed because of the Sophie thing. More upset then me. I did feel a bit bad for him but not that much as I already got over it.

Charlie not calling or anything was upsetting me because I knew he'd either forgotten about me or expected me to call first, and I wouldn't be first because it would make me seem like it's all I've been thinking about for five months.. I know it's been on my mind for five months but I couldn't let him know that.

I always thought about Charlie, I couldn't go an hour without thinking about him, he was just on my mind 24/7. I think about Charlie more than Brad thinks about Sophie, more than I think about her really, I wish I didn't leave him now. I can't go back though. My mum has a great job she loves, I have friends here, Yet they don't compare to Charlie.. See! Anything I think about somehow relates to Charlie! Charlie this Charlie that! I feel like yanking out my hair but then I'd just think about Charlie's hair or something!
I still feel bad for just leaving him but it was for the best.

"Ellie?" Amy said. I jumped out of my thoughts.
"Have you seen this video?"
"Of what?"
Finally, Hopefully a cute video of a dog singing with a fish or something will take my mind off-
"This song some kid wrote, it's gone viral."
I already guessed what the video would be now.
She showed me and I saw Charlie singing the song. The song he wrote for me.
I smiled, Natalie laughed, "Ellie! I called dibs."
I laughed as well. "I think I know him"
"Sure you do." She laughed.
Yep. I sure do. Crap. Now he's never gonna get out of my head..

The last bell went and I walked out, got everything out my locker, then stuffed it in my bag. It's Summer! I ran home and ran down the street, So excited I almost got hit by school busses a few times..

It's Summer! I opened the door to see my my smiling.
"Ellie!"
"Yep!"
"We're moving back to England."
My sugar rush came to a halt.
"You're kidding, right?"
"No, I said after a term I could move back. Don't you want to see your old friends, Leo, Char-"
"I don't want to move back there! What about Lola."
"I hear she's nice now."
"That's because I'm not there."
"You can be friends again!"
I thought for a minute.
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why is it always one extreme to another. Moving countries, moving again. Making friends with Bullies!?"
"We're moving, whether you're going to Winterbourne or not."
I stormed upstairs, What would Natalie and Amy do when they see I'm gone?!

"I'm not going Mum. You can't make me."
"You're going on that plane!" She was dragging me across the airport floor by my legs and everyone stared at me. My dad was carrying my bags and I then had and Idea.
Would I get out Of this if I screamed the word, 'Bomb'?

Probably not. That would make things worse for me.
She carried on dragging me then lifted me up. She sat me down on my seat and I gave her the silent treatment the whole flight.
"You're really embarrassing me, Ellie."
One hour to go.
I stayed silent.
"People were filming you having a huff."
I laughed.
"No, It's not funny, You were acting like a five year old."
I rolled my eyes.
"Bomb!" I shouted.

Everyone looked at me and I was taken to the back of the plane. When it landed me and my parents were taken in a room.
"Did you think that was funny, Young lady?"
"Yes. Yes I did."
"Ellie!" My mother shouted.
"Why did you say it?"
I thought it was Funny.
"I don't know."
"You don't know? Well you could've made everyone on the plane panic."
"Now you are very lucky. We have searched all of you and your bags and you aren't carrying anything you shouldn't so we will let you off this one time, but if that ever happens again. Then there will be consequences. Do you understand."
"Perfectly."
"Good," "You can go now."
I got out and mum and dad looked so pissed.
We got off and into a taxi which drove us home.
"It's your fault. I told you I didn't want to go."
"I'm really angry at you."
"Aren't you going to punish me."
"No, I think that five hours of security searching all our belongings was enough punishment."
The long drive was just an awkward silence. All you could hear was angry breathing from my mum.

I opened the door and saw my old house. Exactly where everything was. Wow. Aunt Barbara did a good job of keeping the house where everything was. I ran up to my room.
Same old desk, same picture frame of me and Sophie. Another with me and Charlie. Old sheets of paper and crappy old stories I'd written.
Same Cupboards and draws with letters in, then the letter Sophie gave me.

I laid on my bed and just looked around. I did miss it a lot. Not as much as I missed Charlie.. See! Everything and anything I think about revolves around him.
I got dressed and went to sleep..

I woke up and got a few texts.

Leo: Are you here yet? Call me when you get here! X

Me: Yes. Do you want to go to the park or something?

Leo: Oh, Really sorry El. I just remembered I told. Charlie I'd see him today. Unless you want to come?

This was my chance, My chance to see Charlie after five months of just thinking about him nonstop.

I looked at my phone and got another text.

Leo: He's single. ;)

Me: So what time are we meeting?! X

Leo: Come in an hour. X

I jumped out of bed, put on my favourite clothes, put a bit of mascara on, put my boots on, brushed my hair and grabbed my phone. I ran downstairs.
"Wow! Where are you going in such a rush?" My dad said placing his newspaper down.
"To see Leondre. And Charlie!"
He laughed and I ran out. It was really sunny today. I ran down to the park and he wasn't there. Wow. I was early. I looked in the tiny mirror on the children's slide and checked my hair looked okay.

I felt so excited and I didn't want to come off desperate so I just ran and ran. After running around the big park several times I sat down.

I saw someone walking, two people actually..
