Madison:

"IS THIS EVERYTHING?" my mom questioned as we continued to pack. "It doesn't seem like enough" she told me and I told her "I am getting new clothes there when I get in better shape, so I only need a few weeks worth of clothes" I told her, knowing that it wasn't going to be easy to lose weight but I am.

"Sweetheart, Rose!" called my father and my mother and I made our way downstairs as we each grabbed a suitcase, her carrying one and me carrying two. We made our way down the stairs, which felt like forever until we reached my father who was in his study. "What are you packed for, we going on a trip?" he questioned and I let out a laugh.

"No papa, I am going to stay with Aunt May in England for a while" I told him and he raised a brow "Why are you going there?" he questioned "I am going to get a fresh start for a while, away from those kids at school" I said and he sighed "They've been bullying you again? I told you to let me handle it" I cut him off.

"Papa, it's fine, this will be good for me, I will be back my senior year to come back to school, I just need a year to get myself together" I told him and he hugged me and I nodded "I knew the day would come where you got sick of those fuckers" he said and my mom looked at him "Jay" she scolded and he mocked her "Jamie", she stuck her tongue out.

"Now that you have come to your senses, here" my father turned around and unlocked one of the drawers kept on his desk and pulled out a little box. Opening it he handed me a card and some money.

"Here, this card has a lot of money on it, we've been saving this for when you wanted to use it, the money is just in case, since you will be there for a year" he told me.

I nodded, giving him a hug and he kissed my forehead. "Now your mom and I will drop you off at the airport in a while, well as soon as you call May and let her know, you can take our private jet from there, so we don't have to worry about buying you a ticket" he said and I nodded. "Now go call May and come back here so we can go" he said and I nodded.

Walking with my bags I took them to the door, setting them down. Pulling out my phone, which I didn't bring to school in case the kids try to rob me, I opened it with my face ID, I have the newest phone thanks to my dad having an extended branch of his company for phone's. Clicking on her name I held the phone up to my ear.

"Hello?" I spoke 'Madison, is that you' I heard her cheerful voice on the other side of the phone and laughed a bit "Yeah, it's me Aunt May" she laughed 'Well what is it you need?' she questioned and I rubbed the back of my neck. "Well I was wondering if I could come stay with you for the rest of this year and junior year?" I questioned and she spoke 'Of course sweets, is this about those kids at your school' and I groaned.

"How did you know" she laughed 'Well when are you coming?' she questioned "Well I planned to leave now, and the ride is about 9 hours, so I should get there around 4 or 5 in the morning" I told her, doing the math in my head, 'Of course you can come, I am finishing up this job, then I'll go home and prepare a guest room' she said and I spoke "Thanks Aunt May, love you" she giggled 'Love you too' and hung up.

My whole family is pretty wealthy, my aunt being a fashion designer and all. I walked back to the study and saw my mom and dad talking, probably about this whole drop everything and move to England thing.

"She said yes" I said and they nodded "Well then it's time to go" my mom said and we made our way to the limo. Climbing in, I set my bags in the trunk and we began to make our way to the airport, singing along to whatever was on the radio.

Once we arrived, my mom and dad helped me take my bags to where our little private jet station thing is at and gave the bags to the guards as we went through, who took them to where I am guessing is the jet. Holding me by my shoulders my dad spoke.

"You be careful out there" he told me and I nodded "Remember we love you and write us postcards and letters every once and a while" he told me and I nodded "Of course papa" I said and he looked at me and gave me a hug "I am going to miss you mija, but the year will be over before you know it and you'll be back" it sounded like he was trying to convince himself that, but I just nodded along.

He turned me around and clamped something on my neck, it was a gold necklace with a clear ball, and when I picked it up I could see earth. "To remind you we are on the same earth when you miss us" he said and I nodded, tucking it beneath my shirt. "Five minutes" the pilot said and we nodded.

I gave my parents one last hug before walking into the jet "Bye mama! Bye papa, I love you guys, see you in a year and some change!" I waved before I stepped on the jet and heard them laugh and wish me good luck and told me that they loved me too, and I swore I could see my mom crying.

I sat down in my seat and leaned back, plugging in my headphones and sorting out my music for a while before we took off. When we finally took off, I leaned my head back, looking out of the window of the city I loved, but despised at the same time. Sighing to myself, I got more comfortable in the recliner chairs and kicked my feet up.

Staring out of the window I spoke "Good bye Florida, and hello to new beginnings" I finished and sent out a prayer of good fortune as I felt the turbulence. I leaned my head back and closed my eyes, listening to great music and allowing the slight shake of the jet lull me into a nice deep sleep.
