Song: Welcome to New York by Taylor Swift

One month before the funeral
Marco's pov
            I am laying in bed scrolling through Instagram. I come upon a photo of Nessa. She has been missing for over 4 months.
This has been very hard on me. Nessa was my closest friend. She always could make me happy, even if she did cause my jaw injury, it was her fault.
"Marco, you almost done packing?" Carlos asks opening my door
"Yeah" I answer
"Thinking about Nessa again?"
"Yeah, I try not to but she pops up everywhere."
"I know it's been hard, but you can get through this." Carlos says and smiles at me before walking back to his room.
Today Carlos, Mahogany and I are moving to New York State . My parents live there and Carlos and I don't have work here. I also agreed to it because I feel like I need to start new.

After a few hours we are completely ready to move. We will be renting our house out, just incase this doesn't work out good. We all drive to the airport. We board the plane. Since Mahogany didn't book her flight at the same time as us her seat is far away from Carlos and I's seat. I let Mahogany have my seat cause I don't care. I sat down towards the back of the plane. I have the window seat. I say by to Cali, pull out my headphone and put on my music.
A few hours later I feel a tap on my arm. I look over and see a girl next to me who I didn't even notice. I take off my headphones and she says "hey, I dropped my pen by your foot could you grab it?"
"Sure" I said and picked it up.
"Thanks, I'm Lily. What your name?"
"I'm Marco, nice to meet you. Are you just visiting New York?"
"No I live here. Are you?"
"I am moving to New York."
"By yourself?"
"No, with my brother and his girlfriend."
"Oh, well it's pretty great here. What do you do for a living?"
"I am an actor mostly. I also dance some. What do you do?"
"I'm also an actor! How come you your moving from LA? Isn't that the dream for actors?"
"Well, my girlfr-best friend passed away and my brother and I need a new start."
"What happened to your girlfriend?"
"Well, She wasn't exactly my girlfriend. Just my best friend, but we were on our way to that...I guess I should just say my best friend cause I don't even know if she was into me. Anyways, her and her twin sister dropped me off after a party and disappeared. That was four months ago and we have no signs of her."
"That's too bad!"
"We are now in New York. Enjoy your day." The loud speaker said.
"Well, I hope you and your brother enjoy it here."
"Thanks, could I get your number, so I have some one to talk to and I'm not constantly third wheeling?"
"Yeah of course!" Lily said as we waited to get out of our row. The crowd cleared and we both went our separate ways. It took me a while, but I finally found Mahogany and Carlos thanks to Mahogany's hair.
"Finally i found you" I said once I reached them.
"How was your seat? Thanks so much for letting me sit with Carlos."
"Mine was fine. I met a girl who was also an actor."
"Ooohhh" Mahogany squealed
I just ignored it. Her doing that reminded me of Nessa because every time I would mention Nessa's name she would squeal.
"Let's go find mom and dad" Carlos finally said. We went outside and found mom and dad waiting for us.
"I'm so glad your here!" Mom said. We got in the car and went to settle into the house.

Three weeks later
Still Marco's POV
            Tonight I am going on kinda a date with Lily. We have gotten closer and she is really sweet. She reminds me of Nessa in a lot of ways. I'm not really into her.  I don't think she is really into me, we are just friends. I want it to stay that way, but I also need to get Nessa off my mind 24/7. I need to move on and realize I am going to date other girls eventually. I trust Lily with just about everything and she trusts me. I have told her all about LA and she tells me all about her friends from North Carolina where she used to live.

The deal with this chapter is I forgot that Marco was supposed to move to New York when I wrote the last chapter so this is a weird in between chapter. Sorry.
Thanks for reading this! 💜💜💜
