Bye stuck up parents Hello All Time Low

Change

I haven't been able to sleep through the whole night in two weeks. Every time I close my eyes I see him. I miss Jake more than anything but he hurt me. I throw back the covers and walk to the bathroom. I cannot let him control my life. I turn on the hot water and step into the steaming liquid. I don't even reach for the soaps. I just stand there and let the liquid run down my body. Relieving stress as it pours over me. I stand there going over everything that happened in my head. I thought he loved me. There was no hint of him truly being that kind of a guy. Where was that guy hiding? Was I just to blinded by love to see him for who he truly is? Sometimes love does that to you. It blinds you from the bad and the ugly. It makes situations seem less severe. Thats where love gets dangerous. I reach for my shampoo and lather up my hair. I let the shampoo sit as I stick one arm out of the shower and turn on my ipod dock. The room is automatically filled with G-Eazy. Recently i've been very into him. I wash out the shampoo and follow up with conditioner. After lathering up my body with soap and singing along to some All Time Low I rinse off and get out. I grab the nearest towel and attempt to dry my hair a little. I wrap the towel around me and go to my closet. I don't think we are going anywhere today so I don't have to look good. I grab my black skull tank top and a hot pink bra. Putting them on I also reach for matching panties. I search for skinny jeans that I like but then I look outside. I kinda wanna go for a walk today and it's super nice out. I ditch the jeans idea and grab some plain black tights. I put them on and pull light jeaned high waisted shorts out of my drawer. I quickly put them on and look in the mirror. This looks okay i guess. I see a red flannel out of the corner of my eye and i'm hooked. I put it on and grab the nearest beanie. It's black. I honestly think it's Jacks but oh well. I put it in my pocket and sit down infront of my mirror. I straighten my hair but curl the ends. I apply mascara, eye liner, and some gold eye shadow. I put the finishing touches on my outfit and put on the beanie. This is a different look for me. I kinda like it. I think I like this better than my neon jeans. I need to make some changes, im ready for change. Without a second thought I run to the closet and stuff all my neon colored things into a garbage bag. I tie the bag and quickly run down stairs.
"Roni what are you doing?" Alex asks looking at me confused as he sips his coffee. I silently walk past him and out the back door. I walk to the trash can and throw it away. This is the start of a new beganing for me. I run back inside and back up to my room. I grab my wallet and cell phone and again silently leave the house. I am done with the person I was. I walk to the nearest hair salon as my phone vibrates non stop. I walk in to see a young looking woman with black wavy hair.
"Hello, how may I help you?" She asks sweetly.
"Hello I would like-
----------------------
I walk out of the salon looks different. A good different though. I began my walk home. Everyone is going to be so pissed that I left without a word but oh well.
I take a deep breath as I walk onto the porch.
"Im home" I yell as I walk in.
"Veronica where have you-" Jack starts yelling but stops quickly. "What did you do to your hair?" He asks smiling.
"Well lets see I got it dyed back to Black and put some blonde streaks in it. Then I got extentions put it so that my hair is to my lower back. Do you like it?" I ask raising one eye brow.
"I love it." Jack says smiling. Relief automatically washes over me. This is a whole new me.
"Well sweetie happy birthday" Jack says throwing his arms around me in a warm embrace. I had completely forgotten my own birthday.
"I have so much planned for you. Well the guys and I each do. We are going to take you on separate mini birthday things. We couldn't agree on a solid plan so this is the best we got." He says chuckling nervously and rubbing the back of his neck.
"I can't wait to get started" I say reassuringly and kiss his cheek. For once in two weeks I'm actually kinda happy.
