~Your POV~

"Mom! I can't find my phone charger, do you take it again or.....something....." I yelled through the apartment.

I saw my mom and my older brother sitting at the table. Oscar (older brother) looked really upset.

"Y/n, honey, come sit." My mom said.

I walked slowly towards them and sat next to Oscar. He hugged me like never before.

"Mom, what's going on?" I asked.

"Listen, um, I got a job all the way in Hawaii. It's the chance of a life time." She said.

My jaw dropped. I can't leave queens. Not now. Not after just moving here a year ago. That's not long enough.

"Mom, we've only been here a year. That's the shortest we've lived in a home. Why can't we stay longer?" I asked.

"I can't control when I get a new job or where, y/n. You have to understand that." She said.

"But....I love this place. It's the first place that I actually made friends here. The place that I wasn't called 'the new kid' at school. I enjoyed that. Midtown high is the one school I actually like being at. How can you take this all away?" I asked, "I don't want to be selfish right now. But I know Oscar feels the same way."

"I know he does. I know you kids have many friends here, but this is the job that I've dreamed of having for a long time. I would really love it if you guys would accept it." She said.

"Look, I know I'll be forced to move away. But don't expect me to be happy about it." I stood up and ran to my room.

I texted peter.

Me:
Hey I need to talk to you
about something...can I come over?

Peter😘:
Yeah of course

I shut my phone off. I put on some sneakers and I left my apartment. I walked out of my apartment building and walked to peters building.

I climbed up the stairs and arrived at his apartment door. I knocked and may answered.

"Hey y/n. Peter's in his room doing some homework." She said.

"Ok thank you." I said.

She smiled. I walked inside and walked to Peter's room. I knocked on his door.

"Come in." He said.

I walked inside and saw him sitting there shirtless at his desk. He was working on some gadget of his again.

"Peter we need to talk." I said.

"Yeah one sec." He said.

I sat down on his bed.

"Peter I really need to-"

"I said one second." He said.

I sighed.

"Ok, peter it's really-"

"Can you just give me a minute!" He yelled.

"I need to tell you something really important!" I snapped.

His head jolted up. I fidgeted with my thumbs.

"Your fidgeting. Shit. What is it?" He asked getting up and walking over to me.

He sat down next to me. He wrapped an arm around my shoulders and held me close.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

"W-well my mom always has a new job, and we're constantly moving states and-" I stopped trying not to cry.

I held my face in my hands. I started crying again thinking about leaving peter and everyone else.

He let go of me and grabbed my arms gently.

"Babe, everything will be ok. Just tell me." He said.

I looked up to him with red puffy eyes. It felt like I had been crying for hours.

I looked down at my hands.

"Look, my mom got a new job and it's the job of her lifetime but that means....I-I have to leave queens and move to Hawaii." I said.

He froze for a second. He took it all in and took a deep breath. His fingers ran through his hair.

"When are you moving?" He asked.

"Wednesday." I said.

He held his face in his hands now.

"Babe, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen like this." I said.

"So you expected this to happen?" He asked.

"Yes But-"

"But what? Why didn't you tell me this before that you were going to move!" He yelled.

"I didn't know-"

"You just said that you knew this was going to happen! You could've warned me before this happened!" He yelled.

"I didn't know-"

"Oh my gosh. You knew. You knew all about this but didn't bother to tell me until last minute." He went on and on.

I kept thinking about what it'll be like without him. I curled up in a ball and cried again.

He didn't notice until like two minutes later. He sat down next to me. He held me close again.

"I'm sorry for going off like that. I don't know what got into me, I just got so frustrated with everything." He said.

I looked up and wiped my tears away.

"I expected I was going to move but not this soon. I didn't know I was going to move next week until earlier this night. I didn't know any of his was going to happen so soon. I wanted it to never happen. Even though we only live in an apartment, it's the best house over ever lived in." I said.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and leaned on his shoulder.

"Everything will be fine, ok? Both of us with stay strong and keep living our lives." He said.

I nodded.

"I can't really do that, but I'll try." I said.

He chuckled.

"Me too, y/n.....me too."
