Beep beep beep.
I groan and slam down on my alarm clock. Today was the day that me and my mom move halfway across the world... Yeah, so fun. Note the sarcasm. I dont really want to leave. Im just happy here in Arizona. But nope, my mom had to take up the offer in Australia. Sorry, im Skylar. Im 17, 5', have green eyes, and brown curly hair that goes down to the bottom of my rib cage. Back to the story. I stood from my bed and slipped on some black leggings, and a white tank top, and i put a black flannel over the top of my top. I put my hair up in a messy bun and slip on my black toms. I walk downstairs to see my mom stressing out and making sure everything was packed. She smiles gently at me but ignores me after. I sigh and grab a tea from the fridge. I grab my phone from the counter and scroll through instagram. I smile at the pictures that my friends had posted the day before i left. I feel tears falling down my face and quickly wipe them away. About 10 minutes later I hear my mom call me. "Skylar, it's time to go" She says gently. I nod my head and go grab my bag with my laptop, phone charger, and other stuff i would need on the plane. Our bags with clothes were already on their way to Australia with our furniture. I step out of the house and turn back to look at it one last time. "Bye memories " I mumble to it and turn around, walking to the car. I put my bag in the back seat as my mom's friend, Andrew, was driving. My mom climbs into the passenger seat and buckles her seat belt. I copy her actions and Andrew starts to drive away. They start a small conversation while i put my earbuds in my ears. The song Somethings gotta give by All Time Low blasts through my ears and i rest my head on the window.------ 2 hours later ----------
"Sky..." I hear someone whisper and feel someone shake my arm. "Sky come on..." They whisper again while groaning. I hear more mumbled voices before someone grabs me by the waist and throws me over their shoulder. I shrug it off and hold tightly onto my bag and they carry me into the airport. People give us weird glances and when we have to go through security check, Andrew puts me down. He hugs me and I put all my stuff in the basket. I walk through the metal detector and walk back out once im cleared. My mom goes through and as soon as shes done, we walk to our gate number. We wait about an hour or 2 until we can board the plane. We stand in line as everybody hands in their tickets. Me and mom get up to the front of the line and hand the lady out tickets. She gives us a smile and we walk through the corridor type thing. We board the plane and wait another 30 minutes. Soon enough, we are asked to turn off all our devices and we take off into the sky. When we are allowed to, I put my ear buds back in and rest my head on the seat. Green Day's Time Of Your Life floods my ears and I slowly start to fall asleep. The last thing I see is a patch of clouds before I fully close my eyes... Night
