This whole week was pretty great! I made friends and also got closer with them. The one friend I got closest to In Particular is miku. She's becoming my best friend actually. Though miku had been growing more and more well how do I put this, odd. She often looked disgusted with herself and honestly just not ok. I tried to ask her what's wrong but she always would say she's fine which is a total lie. I wish she could trust me enough to say what's wrong cause it pains me to see her like this.
But in other news it was finally the party. I was hyped this whole week and so was Len. Mom didn't care and dad wasn't even here ever since that encounter. I brought my sketchbook,my pencil pouch,clothes, and my phone (of course). Len packed his clothes, phone, and his bear. We ended up walking there and We both were the first ones to show up (how embarrassing) and then gradually everyone came.

"Ok let's watch a scary movie!"Meiko said all creepily. miku flinched and was scared but she tried to hide it as if she were trying to impress someone. I wonder who? "We're gonna watch paranormal activity!"she announced and popped in the movie. I really don't like that movie. It's a cheap production made to grab a quick buck people who like horror. The only scared are jumps cares and that's very cheap and lame. Me and miku shared a couch while Len and kaito sat together on the floor alongside Meiko and Luka. Teto took a whole couch. Miku squeezed me which I didn't mind at all. I looked up at Miku and she had dug her head into my shoulder.its kinda funny how she was taller than me but yet was a big baby. Teto screamed so loud that the neighbors came by to see if she was ok.

As the movie was over Everybody was knocked out. I turned off the tv and the lights and I noticed miku starting to shake a bit. I don't think though it was from the movie to be honest. I mean it wasn't that scary."You ok?" I asked her. "This might sound bad but can you sleep With me?"she asked looking a bit embarrassed. This must be a dream! I nodded sheepishly and she had her arms out waiting for me to walk over to her. I snuggled close to her and dug my head into her neck. She wrapped her arms around me and honestly it felt so right. I could hear her heart pounding though. I pat her back trying to comfort her but I guessed she was knocked out too. I Couldn't help but ponder. Why was she acting like this? Is there a reason? I just can't put 2 and 2 together. I'll think this through In the Morning. I sighed and then dozed to sleep.

I woke up to find Miku's warmth gone. Disappointed I stretched and I heard lens voice from the kitchen. I walked over there and I saw Len and Miku sitting at a table chattering. "Hey."I said rubbing my eyes not caring if I looked like a mess. "Hey Rin."they both greeted me and I went to grab a cup of milk. "Gumi is really moving back?"Len looked over at Miku and she nodded. I froze when I heard her name. Gumi used to be my best friend.

"Haha beat you again Rin!"a young gumi exclaimed and i crossed my arms annoyed. "This isn't fair."I exclaimed. "I won fair in square."she said smiling with her brace face. Gumi just beat me in Mario kart and she cheated I know she did! "I hate you."I said to gumi. " I love you too kagamine."she responded and laid on her carpet. "You have to meet the new girl who just moved in she's so cool!"gumi said changing the subject. "What's her name?"I asked curious. "I think it was miki or something. she just moved here with her mom from Japan."gumi said happily. "I have to go though maybe another time."I said packing my stuff. "Ok kagamine see ya around."she said as she walked me out of her house "bye!"I exclaimed skipping back home.

"Rin used to be best friends with her."Len said and I snapped out of my day dream. "Really?"Miku said and I turned back to face them. "Yea we hung out a lot."I said rubbing the back of my neck. "Nice,same here."Miku smiled and patted the chair right next to her. I sat on the chair and the three of us talked. I felt a pang in my stomach as I glanced at the teal haired girl. I honestly really wanted to cuddle with miku again. Like I can't forget that moment it keeps on replaying in my head and agh I wish it could happen again. Like that moment I felt all my problems washed away and it felt so right too. I'm just being stupid agh. I know I can't date anybody else after my ex. I have a fear I'll just be hurt again. But Miku was different. She would never hurt me or even a fly. Well would she? Everybody gradually woke up and started to leave.

Me and Len walked home and opened the door. "Hey."I said and my mom walked over to us. "You guys had fun."she asked and we nodded. "Have you seen your step father lately?"she asked us and my I felt ill by the mention of him. "No I don't care."I mumbled and my mom glared at me. "Don't talk about him like that. He works very hard everyday to care for you guys."she said and I cringed. I didn't say anything after that cause I couldn't break the truth to her yet.

The rest of the day me and Len helped clean the house. As we finished dad came home sober and so was mom. This isn't a good combo. "Where were you?"my mom pressed on. Me and Len escaped to our room and locked the door listening from the other end. "I was out working" Derrick said lying through his teeth. More like working out your dick. "We haven't paid the rent for this month! Honestly how are we gonna provide for this family if your never here!"she pressed on. "I'm working"he Lied once again. "You need a better job then cause honestly your income isn't helping cover anything!"my mom yelled. You mean you need a job? I heard a slam and I just curled into a ball not wanting to her what was gonna come after that. Len hugged me and attempted to comfort me. I hate this place I hate him I don't get why mom is even with him still! She doesn't even love him my god!
I started to get filled with anger and sadness and then got up from len's grasp. He gasped and crawled into his bed squeezing a pillow. I went to my bed and covered my head with a pillow. The fighting continued and there was a slam in the front door. Wow I wonder who left? I rolled my eyes and then got down from my bed. Len was asleep. You know what?! I'm done! I'm running away! I thought to my self. Not thinking clearly I packed my stuff and ran out of the house not caring if anybody was home.

I ran as far as I could and then tripped over a crack. "Fuck"I muttered and I scrapped my knees. Not able to walk any further I sat against a tree. Full of anger and sadness I finally broke.What am I doing?! How did I come to this?!

"Rin?"

I looked up and I saw Miku with a worried expression on her face. Agh I don't want her to worry about me. She bent down and hugged me. I hugged her back and she sat next to me. "What's wrong Rin?you can tell me anything I won't judge..."she said holding both of my hands. I looked up to her and I spilled out everything. Pretty much my whole life story. She gasped and hugged me once again. "You're safe with me right now.."she said softly and I believed her. I felt that feeling once again in my stomach. That fluttery feeling.

This isn't a phase

This isn't temporary

I know I love her.
