"So sleep over this weekend??" My best and only friend Liliana asked me. She had baby blue eyes and glasses with waist high dark brown hair and fair skin. She was taller than me but skinnier too, she was wearing black and white chucks with an oversized grey sweatshirt and skinny jeans. They were more like regular jeans compared to her. She had her rainbow zebra printed cased phone in her hand when a Derpy Hooves notification went off. "I brought you a letter!" Her phone sang.

"Ugh Chase shut up!" She turned her phone off. "So sleep over or not?"

"You know my parents bailed on me this week, I don't know if I can afford a person staying over when I live alone now, Lil." I responded while getting dirty looks from snooty people.

I gave them looks right back. Like I care what those douchebags think.

"Skylar, you know you can live with me right? My mom will be happy to take you in. You can't just live by yourself for two years, you need a job to pay bills and stuff." Lil said worriedly.

"Whoa, Lil you used my whole name, you're totally serious about this." I said while putting one earbud in and turning on my favorite song by Ghost Town.

If I die before I shine

I hope my soul will finally find

A heart that beats as fast as mine

In search of something worth my time

A place to rest

A place to hide

From all the mess i've left behind

This occasion calls for something more than just another

Washed up broken hearted lie

This occasion calls for something more than just another

Waste of all my time

She's so hard to find

Yet I watch her all the time

Ain't nothing to us lately

Maybe we can make a movie

I'll be your king and you my queen

I'm just the dreamer type

Let's take it one scene at a time

And I hope it feels right when i'm holding you tight

Damn, I want it bad

Now you know I want you bad

And I hope it feels right when i'm holding you tight

Damn, I want it so bad

This occasion calls for something more than just another

Washed up broken hearted lie

This occasion calls for something more than just another

Waste of all my time

This occasion calls for something more than just another

Washed up broken hearted lie

This occasion calls for something more than just another

Waste of all my God damn time

"Sky! Are you listening?!" Lil yelled at me causing me to leave my little music fantasy.

"What? Yeah, totally." I said obviously lying.

"What did I say then?" Lil stopped in the middle of the hallway and crossed her arms. Her blue eyes flickering for me to answer the question fast.

"Technically I didn't lie, I was listening. Just not to you." I said before I even thought.

"Damn it, Sky. I was saying, I don't think it's a good idea for you to try and live alone. You're only seventeen and have been babied and spoiled your whole life." She said still standing in the middle of the hallway.

I looked around to see lots of other students looking at us. "Go somewhere! This isn't your business!" I yelled at them. A few left but the stubborn ones wouldn't. They looked at me as if I wasn't going to do anything to them, which totally wasn't true. I cracked my knuckles and flinched at them making it look like I was gonna come at them and they all darted. "Haha, wimps."

"SKY!" Lil yelled to get my attention.

"What Lil!?" I yelled back at her.

"So what are you going to do?!" She said and finally started going down the hallway again. She knew if we missed the bus we would have to walk home, and home is like an hour away on foot.

"I'm gonna go home, eat, go on youtube and watch ma dudes, then sleep." I said totally serious. "And if that doesnt work I can always get kidnapped by One Direction like those girls do in fanfics."

"Ok, fine if you don't want me to help you, I won't. Just know I'll always be here if you need some okay?" She said the entire sentence nodding her head around making her waist length dark brown hair sway.

"I promise if I need help I'll call you. Okay?" I said while pushing the squeaky doors open to the exit of our high school.

"You have to Pinkie Pie promise, that you will call me if you need help." Lil said.

I sighed but did it anyway. "I, Skylar Anderson, cross my heart hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye promise that I will call you if I need help with anything." I said while doing the hand movements that go with it.

"Good, I'll see you monday. Maybe sooner." Lil said while giving me an enormous hug.

"God, Lil, I'm not moving across the world, you don't have to hug me so tight. Plus I can't breathe." I said with a strained voice.

"Sorry, I just want you to be safe, Sky." Lil said while finally letting go of me.

"I'll be fine, I- Is that my bus??" I saw the numbers that looked like mine and panicked. It took a corner and I saw it was mine. "NO WAIT!!" I yelled while taking off running. I waved my arms around. "STOP! PLEASE STOP!" I yelled. It started to accelerate and go faster to where I couldn't catch up to it.

"Son of a bitch!" I yelled and stomped my foot. Looks like i'm walking home.

"Sky, I'm sorry! Do you want to ride my bus??" She asked me.

I sighed. "No, I need to think so walking will be fine."

"Oh, ok be safe!" She yelled while running to the door of her bus.

"I will!" I waved at her when we could see each other through the window and she waved back. We kept waving until her bus pulled out until I couldn't see it anymore.

Looks like I have an hour to think about my life. Starting now, and I started walking through the field towards the closest intersection that leads to the train tracks.
