~MARCH'S POV~

I wake up the next morning more tired than usual. I barely got any sleep last night. I know it's not the end of the world, but I love Matt, I don't want to move away from him.

I drag myself out of my bed and get in the shower. I wash up and then just stand there under the hot water, thinking. I think way too much in the shower.

The hot water starts to run out and it turns cold so I finally get out. I put on my black LOX tank top and white shorts. Mahogany is seriously my queen and I just got that shirt so I'm excited to wear it.

I put my hair in a messy bun and put on my usual eye liner and mascara. Then I find my black vans and put them on.

I go downstairs and eat breakfast really fast because I took a long time in the shower so I'm behind schedule. I text Matt that I'm about to leave and grab my book bag.

I walk out the door and walk over to Matt's house. He's already at the end of his driveway by the time I reach him.

He grabs my hand and kisses my cheek. "Good morning beautiful" he says.

I blush and say good morning back and we start the walk to school.

We talk about random stuff, but the whole time I'm thinking about how I'm going to tell him I'm moving. I don't want to tell him right now though because he seems really happy and I don't want to tell him first thing in the morning.

I finally decide I'm going to tell him on the walk back to our houses after school.

I can't focus in any of my classes all day. I keep imagining the conversation we're going to have when I tell him. I think of what I'm going to say and keep changing it. I'm so bad at this.

I imagine how he's going to react and what he's going to say and then think of something else to say because it's not the reaction I want from him.

I literally have no idea what to do in math. Seriously I've been thinking about stuff completely unrelated to math.

It reminds me of Matt's vine 'Me in math class everyday'

*raises hand* Yeah uh can I go home? I have no idea what's going on. Are you even in this class? I'm so lost. Hey, do you get this? *high pitched crying*

Finally the bell rings for math class to be over and I go to my last few classes.

Once they're finally over I go to my locker and get all my stuff. Then I find matt by his locker. Oh no. It's almost time to tell him... I don't know why but this is going to be so hard for me to say.

He grabs my hand and we start the walk to our houses. He starts talking about something funny that happened in one of his classes and I decide I can't tell him yet. There's not enough time to explain everything to him because we'll be at our houses soon.

I have to tell him though. I have to get this off my chest. So I invite him over to my house. Besides,we always go to his house, so it'll be a nice change.

We decide he'll come over around 5. It's almost always 5. We just always go to each others houses at that time. I don't know why.

We reach his house and we stop walking when we reach his driveway. He kisses me and says, "see you soon."

"See you soon" I say back and walk to my house.

I go up to my room and try to distract myself with social media. It actually works for a while and in no time it's 4:30. Still got half an hour.

I decide to go get some food. What I always do when I'm bored.

I find a pop tart and heat it up in the toaster. I love pop tarts.
