We are NOT moving to New York

i wake up the next day with a small smile on my face.

I must have had a tremendous dream because i never wake up smiling, but here on this Monday morning i am smiling all happily when i wake up.

I swing my legs over the side of my bed, slipping on my yellow emoji slippers.

getting up and walking to my bathroom, i quickly shower and blow dry my hair.

I then dress in a black crop top and low hanging white ripped jeans.

i then throw my hair into a sassy bun and put a white bandana in my hair.

Once i am satisfied with my look, i do my makeup and slip on my converse before making my way down the stairs.

I nearly jump in the air like a scared cat when i see my brother leaning against the counter with a smile plastered on his face.

"Hi!" he says and quickly runs to me hugging me tightly.

"Hi"
 i say softly hugging him back tightly. "how are you?!"  i ask squeezing him hard to me.

"I'm good the trip was mainly work what about you?" i de-tangle myself from him walking to the kitchen. "oh you know the babysitter you sent to watch over me? yeah well.. I didn't need it" i say walking to the fridge and grabbing two water bottles.

"well did you make friends at least?" I give him a look that says 'Shut it' He put's his hands up in the air.

I laugh and throw a water bottle to him. "so when did you get here?" i ask while sitting down at one of the stools.

"Meh about an hour ago, And sis just know i will never leave you like that again" He says dramatically. I roll my eyes and take a big gulp of my water.

"Well you can plus i know that usually means you have another business trip to go to. "

He smiles sheepishly. "yeah about that i have like something to talk to you about, and you have to know i am considering this very carefully..." i raise an eyebrow as he trails off.

"considering what?" He sit's down in the stool next to me. "sis, My boss found a better paying job out in New york, and it would be a great opportunity for you to make friends, and start a new life." i drop the water bottle in my hand and it splashes everywhere. 

"Y-your A-actually c-considering it?!" i sputter angrily. "well yes for many reasons." He says squeezing my knee. I push away from the table. "Well you can go out to New York by yourself. I will just get an apartment or something i am eighteen."

"But i don't want to move out there without you, your my only family left." He pleads me with his eyes.

"should have thought about that before you decided to move." I rush up the stairs and to my room where i slam the door shut. I look around my room at the clock that rests on my nightstand.

4:45Am it reads. I grab my phone and dial the first person's number that came to my mind.

"c'mon pick up pick up" I grip y phone in my hand tightly and flop back onto my bed staring at the ceiling.

"Hello?"

his sleepy voice fills the phone. My heart clenches as i realize how terrible this idea was.

"Hi sorry did i wake you?" i bite my lip as i wait for his response.

"No, i was just erm studying... What's up?"

"I just need to talk to you. If you want to of course."

"sure, when and where?"

"Now and my favorite cliffs, bring your swim suit."

"But it's like 45 degrees outside!"

"Just do it"

"fine"

I throw my phone in my bag and slip on a black bikini that shows my cleavage and a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt. Slipping on a jacket i grab my phone and shoving it in my pocket. before walking to my window.

I pry open my window, sticking my head out to look down at the ground. It's pretty far but there's a tree in front of my window. That i can jump onto and easily climb down.

I count all the steps before i jump and at what time to jump before climbing onto the slippery roof.

I run and jump into the air, Adrenaline surges through me as i latch onto the tree with all my might.

Once i have had time to catch my breath i stand on one of the branches walking across it til i get to the other spirally branch.

i look down at the ground and back up holding tighter to the tree. "gotta jump i guess" i whisper to myself before jumping off of the tree. My hair flys behind me before my feet hit the ground. 

A jolt from my landing causes me to fall onto the ground hard. "Ow!" I yell quietly before getting up and making my way towards the cliff.

When i get there i am the only one here. I set my bag on the cliff before i slip out of my jacket, t-shirt, jeans, and shoes.

I pry my bandana off my messy bun throwing that in the pile of clothes. The cold soaks through my skin and chills me. Burr! I sit on the edge of the cliff pulling out a cigarette.

Just as i am about to smoke Erick walks onto the cliff. he spots me before he sets his bags on the cliff next to mine and shedding his shirt and shoes.

"so what are we gonna do?" he asks walking up to the cliffs edge, standing next to me.

"well have you ever jumped before?" i ask smirking.

"Nah, why are we gonna?" He asks i see a look of panic flood his eyes as he tries to act cool in front of me.

i smirk and walk to the beginning of the cliff where i run and finally jump off the cliff. i soar through the sky as adrenaline fills me and the wind ruffles my air.

Suddenly i am plummeting to the water. I cut through the water going to the bottom of the lake.

I stay under the water until my lungs constrict needing air and the coldness of the water chills me to my bone.

Coming up out of the water i take a big gulp of breath and smooth the wet hair out of my face. Looking up into the early morning i can just see a tiny figure. I do a thumbs up and a big smile.

Suddenly i hear a masculine scream as he comes plummeting into the water. I chuckle as he comes up to the surface.

i splash him with the cold water before swimming away towards the edge of the cliff. Erick comes up behind me grabbing me by my waist.

I squeal as i suddenly feel myself being dunked into the water. I swim under the cold water and  climb onto his shoulders. He spins me around. "WOOOOO!" I yell holding my hands up.

I can feel his hands gripping my upper thighs and holding my to his shoulders so i don't fall. Despite being cold i feel warm with him under me, his warmth radiating from him.

I smile and look into the early morning sky letting the moon shine on me providing just enough warmth to see the cliff above me.

I sigh in contentment. This should never end..
