The Girl Who Moves

Chapter 1

           As I was running down the street I knew I couldn't be late for dinner my mom would kill me. I ran in the door and I had just made in to sit down before Mom got out into the dining room. That was close I would be grounded and wouldn't be able to see Chole. Which would suck cause she is the only thing keeping me alive in the hell hole I call home. As Mom sits down she says "Peyton what was so important you were almost late for dinner?" My mom doesn't know about  Chole and I don't plan on telling her. Yeah, what a bad kid I am for not telling don't remind me. I look around and see my dad is not there so instead of answering the question I say "Where is Dad?" Mom looks around to my two little siblings. Yes, I have two siblings they are twins and younger than me by two years.

Oh, shit I forgot to introduce my self the name is Peyton Reynolds, I am sixteen and live with my mom and dad. My Mom is a nurse and well my Dad is in the military. That means I move around allot and well it sucks being the new kid. But I have lived in Madison for six months, two weeks and three days. And well my Dad is saying since it is going to be my Junior year in high school we should stop moving around so much. But I highly doubt that it will happen.

Mom looks at Charley and Matt and says "We can talk about after dinner. Now Peyton why were you almost late to dinner?" Oh my goodness I hate this house. I look at her and say "I was at the park and I lost track of time." Yeah, yeah I am lying but what should I tell her? Tell her that I am at my best friends house. When I know Mom hates me getting close to anyone because it is harder to move and she says we only need our family. I didn't realize that dinner was over until Mom says "Peyton your dad is talking to you."

I look over at my Dad who I didn't realize came in and say "Yes father." Yeah, I am a smart aleck but my parents deserve it. They have been moving me around since I was eight. They moved me away from my best friend and the rest of my family. Dad looks at me and says "Peyton we are going to be moving in two weeks. So say goodbye to your friends." I can't believe actually I can this is just like them. They get my hopes that I won't be the new kid my Junior year but that is not the case! I get up and say "I have one friend and I am going to stay with them! But have you thought about Charley and Matt? Charley, she has just made a best friend! And Matt he has been flirting with somebody for a week now!" I didn't give them a chance to say anything before I got up and ran up the stairs.

I might have been too loud because Matt looks at me and says "Are we moving again?" I look at him and say "Get Charley and come to my room, Okay" He gives me a smile and says "Okay I'll get Charley." I walk over to my room and start packing an overnight bag. After my bag is packed I call Chole. Chole answers the phone by saying "Peyton kiddo why are you calling me?" I sigh and say "I'm sorry but can I stay the night at your house tonight again?" "Yeah, but you have to explain why. Okay, kiddo?" She couldn't see me smile but Chole says "And you better let me video chat M and C." M and C are Charley and Matt they share a phone right now so that is what my contact name is for them. Well, the called me after Mom and Dad were arguing and needed out of the house and they met Chole and fell in love with her a platonic love. I finally answer her by saying "Fine bubba but I have to talk to M and C first so bye." I hear a chuckle and she says "Okay bye kiddo."

Matt and Charley walk in and sit on my bed. Charley speaks up first and says "I heard you yelling. Are we moving?" I can see M and C don't want to move but we didn't have a choice not yet at least. When I am eight-teen I am getting custody of them and moving them back to where they want. How am I going to pay for it? Well, when my grandma died she left me some money and it should cover it. But I told my aunt about it and she said she would put money towards it every month. I look at them and say "Yes but listen two years and we will be down with this shit. I promise okay MC?" I call them MC when I make a promise it is what I called them when we lived in fort lewis. Matt looked up at me and says "Yeah but I hope it is here because Adam is starting to flirt back and I don't want to lose him." I look at Charley and she says "Yeah I am not leaving Rachel to hanging in our last two years of school." Matt looks up and says "Rachel was my friend first!" I met Rachel and she is nice but when I made the joke that they are MCR she started laughing and said: "No one can be MCR they are too good." I knew that she was good for my MC.
