(The next day) Flora's P.o.v

I slept comfortably on my bed and got up to for another stupid school day. I turned on my speakers and connected my iPhone to listen to "heres to never growing up" by Avril Lavigne. I jammed in my room as i put on my white dress shirt, a red and black plaid skirt, black knee high socks and my white flats. put my hair on a side braid and pinned it around my head like a princess would. Rosa came by greeting me, she had a brand new rose pink collar around her neck with a brand new heart dog tag with her name on it. she was freshly groomed and everything, dad must be home. i ran to the kitchen and saw him making breakfast. Smells like...eggs and toast with strawberry jam!

"Hi dad!" i greeted hugging him from behind. i heard him chuckle, he turned around and hugged me properly. "hey sweet heart, how did you sleep?" he asked letting go. "good" i smiled. hes been out on business trips for a month, it was good to see and hear his voice again.

"thats good, your moms at a meeting so I'm making breakfast, here you go" he put everything on a plate and gave it to me. we ate together on the table. "say, why don't you say you skip school for today and hang out with your old man?" he whispered smiling. i laughed

"dad, i cant ruin my perfect attendance record"."But you do know that most art colleges don't look at attendance right?" right, i don't know why i make it a big deal. "you know what? I'm in, i haven't seen you in a month, so skipping school shouldn't bother me" i laughed

"great, change your cloths". i nodded and changed into a white sleeveless shirt ,a pink skirt that reached to the middle of my sides, brown wedges, and a yarn blue cardigan with small hearts on it, let my hair down, grabbed my Michael kors handbag and raced down stairs. "thats more like it" dad smiled. we drove off in his black SLR McLaren Roadster and drove all the way outside New York, the music was up high, we were listening to "TKO" by Justin Timberlake , the ceiling was open and both my arms were up feeling the breeze. it was so much fun so far, dad said he wont tell me where we are going, i had to wait and see, which was fine by me!

Benjamin's p.o.v

Flora wasn't in her seat first period. i glanced at her empty desk wondering where would she be. Mr.Boomer was giving a lecture about Pearl Harbor again while i wasn't listening. i got my phone out and texted Tyler, hiding behind the guy sitting in front of me

"Hey, do you know where Flora is today?" i texted. i saw Tyler put his backpack on his desk to hide his phone better.

"No, why? do you miss her? cx" he did not just go there.

"no man! I'm just curious! Do you know where she lives so i can check up on her after school?"

"ha! dude, your just making this too easy! anyways no, no one knows where she lives, no body here cares enough to find out"

"Oh, okay"

"if you really want to know, go check in the office after school or something".

"good idea" and that was the end of our texting convo.

I went through out my classes and hung out with Joshua in music, tyler in my two classes,and Julian and Tino in algebra. we all sat together in lunch eating our choices of food, i got spaghetti and a side of water and mangos, don't judge! Im crazy for mangos! I looked around the lunch room trying to see if Flora was around. i got my ear flicked by something "ow!" i complained turning back to the huys. they laughed

"give up dude, shes not here, and even if she was, she doesn't eat lunch here" julian smiled eating his pizza. i rolled my eyes

"yeah, she eats in the library, normally eating there isn't allowed there but the librarian loves her. she could get away with anything, i bet even murder" Joshua laughed.
