Maya's POV:
*Present day*

I sat in the kitchen eating lucky charms and looking at the photographs i took while in Mexico, god i miss it. "You okay honey" my mom says coming in with a tired look across her face, "i'm good mom, what about you?" i ask, already knowing the answer, "i'm fine, just tired from all the packing" she says sighing. I'd be lying if said i wanted to move, i get withdrawals if i'm away from the city to long, my whole life is in the city, my school, my friends, my home, my life. Moving to California will be a huge step for me, as much as i don't want to leave, i know i have to, i need to get away from the stereotypical New York teenager life that has surrounded me the last few years, drugs, alcohol and sex won't get me anywhere. However, even though i was moving in a few days i still didn't know if i could leave the life i made in New York behind, even if leaving is for the best.

"when's dad home?"i ask, "he'll be working late again, you know sorting out his transfer and such, so i was thinking we would order takeout" mom says not looking up from her phone, "can we order pizza?" "sure whatever you want honey". Another thing i'll miss, New York pizza. i called in the pizza at out favourite place downtown, while i was waiting for it arrive i thought i'd set the table in the front room, i decided to put on Dirty Dancing as it was mine and my mom's favourite film.

The pizza finally came and me and my mom was digging in with slight chats in between. "so.. how was mexico, we never really got to talk about it" i cough a bit, i didn't know what to say and i didn't really want to talk about Ryder. "It was good, just need time to get away from the city" even though i didn't think i'd be coming home to an all of a sudden move but you know i'm not complaining, i thought to myself. i bit into my slice of pizza, "i know you did honey and we're happy you made that decision on your own. Anyway, was there any cute boys?" i nearly choked on my food, "Maya, you cant hide it, don't you think i saw your Instagram story, which by the way sounded like there was a British boy in the background of most of them" she added "shit" i said under my breath. "So what was he like" she asked, its like she knew i couldn't stop thinking about him since i got back, i began to tell my mum what a magical spring break i had, obviously leaving out the intimate details. "well Maya, he sounds amazing, if you two was supposed to be together he'll find a way back into your life," i hope your right.

Me and my mom finished off diner, leaving a bit left for my dad for when he gets in, i said goodnight and went to my room. i started looking through Instagram, watching all the little videos you see on the explore page. i sat in bed thinking about my new life in California. What if i don't like my new school? I've lived in the city my whole life and the fact i have to move toward the beach makes me feel uneasy, I've never stayed away from my home for more than two weeks, so how am i going to do it for the rest of my life?
