(Summer POV )
I woke up this Saturday morning kinda happy. I don't know why but I felt a little more..... alive.
It was 7 in the morning and by the sounds of it everyone were still asleep. I would be throwing all types of fits because I have to start packing but there's no point. It wouldnt change anything. We're leaving on Monday and Friday is Christmas. So I have to hurry up to move AND I won't be around some of the people I love on Christmas. I got up and took a shower letting the hot water loosen my tense body. I have a lot on my mind right now. Me having to pack all my stuff in not enough time, moving houses and unpack my new room, having to redecorate, Then moving schools,changing teachers. Im well known in my school and I have to get to know all these new people. Then I have to get to know the new area I'll be living in. But why am I moving? My parents say its because of this 'great offer' but I didn't even know they were looking for a new house. Let alone one in another state ! What about college ?? And the most questionable thing is ...will I remain hidden? All the other problems I could get over but this last one... its my main worry.After I got out the shower I threw on some simple old but comfortable grey Areopostale sweats and a white tank top. My hair was a little damp so I pulled it into a ponytail. Then I pulled out my new laptop. It was a good one too and fresh out the box. I logged onto Pandora 'Chris Brown Radio' and began to pack. I guess I got wrapped up in my music while packing because I didn't notice my mom walk in as I was singing,
"Treasure ! That. Is. What. You Are. Baby Your. My Rolling Stone If You Make M-"
I turned around to see an amused looking mom leaning against my doorframe with her arms folded.
I quickly turned down the music.
"Sorry" I mumbled, slightly embarrassed.
She chuckled.
"I came in here to tell you that you should start packing but looks like your a step ahead of me" she smiled.
I stood up from where I was marking " Summ's Books" on a large box and looked around. Just about everything was packed. The only hint of decoration was the butterfly wall stickers I have yet to take down and my closet still had some clothes in it. Only the cute stuff and uniform for a week. Yess I sadly wear uniform.
"Yup I'm just about ready to go" I answered sighing. Then I checked my watch. 4 o'clock. Wow time rolls by fast. And I haven't eaten all today with an exception of a fruit cup around 12. The thought of food made my stomach growl.
" hungry?" my mother asked
" Yeah .Can you make me a sandwhich please?" I asked
"Sure" she answered turning.
"But before you go , I almost forgot . This ring fell out my jacket pocket . I must've accidentally grabbed it or something. It's yours right ?" I handed it to her
"Ouch !" She instantly dropped it
"What's wrong ? " I asked picking it back up , my brow creased in confusion
"U- Umm I was jus- I just must've got shocked or something" She tried to explain. I nodded my head letting her think I believed her lie but that just sparked my curiosity more.
"So it's not yours ?" I asked
"Huh?" she asked as I just obviously pulled her away from her thoughts.
"Umm n-no." she stammered
" Can I have it? I've never noticed anyone wearing it. " I reasoned and I could tell she was having an I internal battle with herself as to if she should give it to me or not.
