It was 4 years ago today... being taken way from school and I never got to say goodbye to my friends. I never got to say goodbye to Storm ...oh Storm was like a sister that I never had ( Which was true, I don't have a sister anymore, I have 2 older Brothers). We would always listen to Green Day, Blink-182, Good Charlotte, Fall-out Boys, Little Mix (she was a huge fan), One direction and Nivana, and jam out to them singing and playing our guitars...And then there where the boys, my Luke, Ashton, Michael and Calum. We all use to hang out, watch movies ,sing ,play guitar and drums as Ashton was a drummer.They were the best ever, they were funny, inmature and I loved them... Every single one of them. They were all an amazing bunch of friends,(I could never imagine life without them). Until my Father got that stupid job and made the whole family move with him. I wanted to stay in Austailia. My home in Sydney... not all the way to South Africa. The worst part about the move was I never got to say goodbye, we left immediatly.

I hated today so much, I remember begging to be able to say goodbye to Storm and the Boys, but no my father said we had to go. He practicaly forced my family to go. I hated him. I still do. He was a terrible father he knew nothing of what he was doing. I ignored him for the first 2 years not saying a thing to him. He didn't deserve to be spoken to after he had dragged myself and my family away to South Africa. My oldest brother Chris had a girlfriend he never got to say goodbye too. Chris and Bella where getting really serious. Chris ended up not talking to my father for 3 years and he would lock himself up in his bedroom crying himself to sleep and not eating. He would only let me and my seconds oldest brother Joshua in his room. Not even my Mother and she never did anything wrong. I cried myself to sleep pretty often to as I never had contact with Sstorm and the Boys. I couldn't bare them yelling at me for leaving and not being able to see them ever again.

I have been awake since 3am not being able to fall asleep again after the nightmare of me leaving today. I missed my really home and friends so much. But I was never to see them again. I deciede to go downstairs and get a glass of water and watch tv. I got out of bed grabing my glasses on my table next to my bed, and put my long blonde hair into a messy bun. I walked downstairs and as I got to the kitchen I notice a shadow sitting on the bar stool at the island.

"Chris..." I whispered walking closer to him, I notice his blood shot eyes and red tear stained cheeks. I was standing right infront of him waiting for him to look me in the eye. When he did he completely broke down into sobs.

"B-Brooke I...I m-miss B-Bella! I-i h-hate D-dad why d-did he have to t-take the j-job!" He sobbed with anger growing.

"I know Chris-" I was saying when I was cut off by Chris. "NO YOU DON'T...I LOVED HER!!" he yelled at me sobbing again. "Shhh... we don't want to wake dad and make him yell at us!" I whisper-yelled. "Dads not home he went drinking last night and hasn't came back yet." Chris said calming down.

We all knew my Father had a drinking problem and he got violent at times. But we did nothing about it because when we tried to help him, he would yell at us, say he didn't. Chris had finally calmed down and looked at me about to say something when the front shot open with our very drunk father stummbling in. He had left the front door open and made his way up the stairs to his room falling a number of times.

"I'm getting tired, I think I am going to try and sleep... you should try too we have a big day ahead of us today." Chris said making his way out the kitchen to close the front door. He was right I should try and sleep. As today was going to be a long day. So I made my way up to my room.

~~~~~Couple hours later~~~~~

I was woken up to Josh jumping up and down on my bed. "WAKE UP SLEEPY HEAD!" He yelled Happily. How was he happy? He knew it was the day we moved and he was happy something was wrong. I got up and he left. I shower and put on a pair of Black ripped jeans, a Sweater (Luke gave me), Combat boots (Michael bought me), beanie (Calum gave me), Batman bangle (Ashton gave), and last but not least a friendship Necklace Aislin bought us. I grabbed my bag and went downstairs, to the kitchen. My brothers were talking eating some Toast for breakfast. My mom was making some coffee for herself and my dad, who was reading the news paper. My dad got up and said goodbye. What I had notice was that my mom and dad barely talked any more and that he had never gave her a kiss goodbye and he always used to. I sat at the island and had a cup of tea until Josh and Chirs said it was time to go to school. We said goodbye to our mom and headed out the door to the car. Josh had called shot gun meaning I was in the back. "So Brooke I'm not taking you guys to school and I'm not going to work either, where ditching and we are going to do something together for once like we used to do in Sydney." Chris said keeping an eye on the road. I nodded my head knowing this could turn out two ways...

But one thing I didn't expect was how the day would turn out to be like...
