I woke to the screams of stress and anger I hide in side my mind.. My little sister is peering over me looking concerned and a little worried she smiles a little "another nightmare eh?"

I nodd and push her away in order to drag my lanky legs out of bed to go over to the bathroom, I close the door and lock it I can hear my sister pacing she always needs to go the second I enter the bathroom urgh. I sit and scroll through my phone .... Don't judge, don't tell me you don't go to the toilet and get annoyed because you forgot your phone, anyway, I go onto my news feed which is filled with goodbye messages from Friday I'm moving to a new place, new school , new house , new friends .... New me ?

Most kids would hate to move they would complain about loosing their friends and social life but me I see it as a fresh start I'll be the new girl for a little while but I can build myself a new life and learn from my mistakes ..

I rinse my hands with lemon scented liquid soap and grab a towel out the lower cupboard and dry them as I place it onto the towel rail as I open the door I'm winded by Molly charging into the bathroom she doesn't wait for me to leave before she , yenno .

I return to my room finding my mum she had made my bed and opens my curtains and windows bringing in the heat from the scorching sun . She had also placed a bag onto my bed with a card next to it, I peer at the scruffy hand writing it's from the only reason I don't want to move tom he's my best friend I've known him since it was two our mums are really close so I will still get to see him but a five hour drive away I don't think the trips will be often enough .

My mum leaves the room meeting at a cross-roads with my sister , I look back to my bag and card I open the envelope with great persuasion trying not to rip it because 1. It is pretty and can be put into my upcoming mood board 2. It can be another memory.

It Is a hand made card not the best but it's not bad it the thought that matters the card read.

BUT ITS GOT TO BE SAID IM REALLY GOING TO MISS YOU

GOOD LUCK FINDING A FRIEND ANY WHERE NEAR THE

SAME STANDARD AS ME ;)

MISS YOU

FROM TOMMY

PS. I HAVE THE OTHER ONE

I open the bag confused by the end of toms message , inside there is a framed photo of me and tom in action ( water fight ) last summer his mum most of took it . There is also a phone case with our favorite cartoon on it and last they is a alive necklace with the white half of a ying yang , he must have the over half ... Someone's been watching a little to much mulan I get Molly to clip the

Friendship necklace onto the second looses setting it dangles down over the hem of my vest top.

Molly and I sit quietly on the edge of the bed , Molly decided she wanted to do my hair as it was an excuse to sit on my bum a little longer I allowed it she took a will to decide but in the end she did an ... Okay job she had ragged my tats out of my hair and attempted to curl it then had put one of her flower clips in. I looked in the mirror as she stood glaring waiting for my response,

" aliiiii do you like it , please say you do because I want to be a hair dresser !"

Molly wanted to be a pirate yesterday then the day before she was a doctor but I played along and said it was fabulous and gave her some pennies for her great work.

Molly left the room she was in a good mood now and was hyper so maybe she won't bug me as much in the car journey, I grab my hair brush and brushed lightly to make the curls softer as not all my hair is curled I must say it doesn't look that back but it doesn't help my face. The draw squeaks as I open it , inside is my collection of arts to change my face I slap on a base coat of foundation layer up my mascara then my baby lip cherry flavour followed by my Pepsi vanilla lip gloss. I only put makeup on when I can be bothered but I need to make a good first impression in my new life...
