Living with the Masons

Chapter 2

I walked in some heads turned my way, but they quickly turned back to what they were doing.

"Hey gurly!" my bestie, Samantha, said, appearing at my side.

"Hey..." I said.

"Why so mopey?" She asked. Samantha was always happy. Sometimes it bothered me how happy she was with the life she had, while I would to anything to change mine.

"Life fucking sucks" I groaned.

"Oh, there's Liam, gotta bounce. See ya later" Samantha smiled. Liam was her boyfriend. He was super sweet and absolutely gorgeous, everything a girl wants.

I walked through the long hallway till I found my locker. I unlocked it. I grabbed the things I needed and headed to my first class.

In class I sit behind this boy named Taylor. He super cute and sweet but he's never been interested... or noticed I was alive. Plus he recently got a girlfriend so there goes my last shred of hope.

My classes went by in a blur. I linked arms with Sammy who had her other arm linked to Liam's and we headed to lunch.

I grabbed a salad and some potato chips. We sat down at a table with Liam and Sam's friends were. none of them really like and a few of them send me a glare so I get up sit at a small empty table in the corner.

From:Bæ<3

Are you okay, boo?

Sam texts.

To:Bæ<3

Yeah I'm okay. You enjoy lunch with Liam.

From: Bæ<3

You sure?

To:Bæ<3

Yep

I set my phone down and continue to eat.

I watch Taylor and his girlfriend, Abbey, together and it kills me to know that he'll never be mine... His girlfriend turns around with a glare, I look away.

~~~~~~~~~

The rest of the school day was pretty shitty so i didn't feel the need to share it with you. I headed to my locker to grab my book bag. I walked out to my car and threw my bag in the back seat. I sat in the front seat thinking for a second. Is this all that I get? Is this how my whole junior year is going to go?

I stuck my keys in the ignition. Letting out another sigh I started on my way home. I decided to stop at the mall.

The first I saw when I walked in was Victoria's Secret. I bought a couple of new bras and panties before heading to wetseal. I got some tanktops.

I went to a few more stores, bought a few more things and then headed to my car.

~~~~~~

I walked in the front door and took my shoes off. I took my bags upstairs. Sitting at my desk, I opened my backpack and started on my homework.

"Dylan!" my mom called. I trotted downstairs and met my mom in the kitchen. I sat down at the table.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Well, um... You're going to be staying at my friend's house for a little while. She-" my mom started to say.

"Friend? What friend?" I asked. Why would she send me to her friend's house? What's wrong with being here? Sure I hate my life but still...

"My friend, Kara, and her husband, Mark, have agreed to let you stay at their house" mom stated.

I was very confused as to why she would want to send me to a friend that I've never even heard of. "Why? I've never heard of or met a Kara or Mike"

"Cause she doesn't want you, nobody does. So she's shipping you off to some unknown friend so she doesn't have to deal with you." Ashley smirked.

"Ya know I've tried to be nice to before, I've tried to see things from your perspective, but I can't stick my head that far up my ass" I replied.

"Bitch" she mumbled.

"Slut" I mumbled.

"GIRLS! THAT IS ENOUGH!!"my mom screamed.

Ashley stormed out of the room and up the stairs.

My mom began again. "As I was saying, Kara and Mark live in Chino Hills, California (maybe I'll meet Cameron Dallas😉). And you leave in two days." She handed me the tickets. "Your flight is at 6:30"

"Why are you sending me to your friends' house? Is what Ashley said true? How long do I have to stay there?" I asked.

"No, of course not, sweetie! I just feel that you need a fresh start, you and your sister don't get along, you get teased at school... I just feel like... I don't know..." She stuttered a little bit. "You will be staying for as long as you need, so pack everything in your closet"

"Why can't I stay with dad?" my parents are divorced. They got into a big fight one night and he slapped her. Don't get the wrong idea, my dad is a good guy, but him and my mom just aren't right for eachother. My dad moved but I don't know where, my mom doesn't want me to know.

"You know I don't trust him..." my mom whispered.

"Well I do! Don't I get a say?! It's my life, not yours, I should be able to choose who I want to spend it with!" I yelled.

She gave me a stern look. "You are not going to your father's, that's final."

I shot out of my chair, making it screech across the floor. I went upstairs to start packing.

~~~~~

I had packed everything, except the stuff that I would need until I boarded the plane.

I decided to go over to Sam's house to tell her the news.

I walked through her front door when I got there.

"Hello, Dylan" Sam's mom greeted me.

"Hey mom" yes, I call Sam's mom, mom.i ran up to Sammy's room.

"DYLAN!" Sam screamed.

"SAMMAY!" I screamed back.

"What's up?" she asked.

"I'm moving... to California, I guess." I said.

"WHA-" she started.

"Shhh" I said, putting my finger on her lips. "let my finish." I cleared my throught. "well, my mom says I need a fresh start, so she's shipping me off to her "friend's", that I have never heard of, house."

"Can I scream now?"

I sighed "Yes"

"WHAT?!! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING! YOURE MY BEST FRIEND! HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO GET THROUGH THE REST OF HIGHSCHOOL WITHOUT YOU?!!!" Sam took a deep breath before she burst into tears. "I need you, Dylan. You're my best friend."

"Sammy... You have no idea how bad I feel. I really going to miss you... More than anything." I started crying too.

"You're my best friend..." She said again.

"You'll be fine without me. You have Liam and we'll talk all the time." I knew Sam would be fine without me but I didn't if I would be fine without her. She saved my life... (that's a story for another time)

"No! I need you, Dylan... I need you..."

We hugged eachother and cried for what felt like ages.

"Hey girls-what's wrong?" Sam's mom asked, coming into the room.

"I'm moving..." I choked.

"Oh sweetie... I'm sorry for both of you."

We spent the next couple hours eating ice cream and watching movies.

"I should get home. See you tomorrow." I sighed.

"Bye, see you tomorrow." Sam said.

I drove home and went straight to bed.
