Voided Soul

Halloween Heart Break.

I got out of bed with a scowl on my face. Yesterday I got stuck in the principals office- elementary school detention- for scratching someone on the face, making them bleed for the 27th time since starting 4th grade. My grades have gone down and my parents say I will fail the 4th grade but I know they don't allow that.
It was Saturday, and tonight was halloween. I went outside to meet with Jackson, Abby, and Cash and check out their costumes while I went as myself. Abby was a fairy, Cash was Chucky, and Jackson was a ninja. Jackson seemed a bit off but he didn't say anything. We went back inside and waited to trick or treat then went as a group and we hung out when we got back.
I sat on Jackson's bed, watching Cash and Abby play video games. He grabbedmy hand and I looked at him confused. "Hey... uh... I'm moving..." I felt my heart skip a beat. "W-What!? Where!? When!?" He looked down. "We are moving to Mexico for a few years. We leave Friday..." I stared at him, eyes wide, tears forming. "What!? No you- you can't! Jackson I need you! I love you!" He shut his eyes tight. "I'm sorry... it's not my choice. We have 5 days to spend as much time as possible together." I looked into his sad eyes, I fought to hold back tears. I hugged him and cried into his shoulder.
Over the past 5 days, we did everything together. We spent and hour outside, throwing a rock, trying to break it in half and we did. He gave me the big half, and he had the other.
We met in the circle to say our final good bye. I toughed it out and didn't cry and hugged and kissed him good bye and I went to my room, shut the door, and sat in a corner, crying until I fell asleep. I refused to eat anything and my grades were terrible. I refused to talk to anyone and sat alone at lunch and recess.
   Finally, after a week of staying in the corner, I got in my bed and layed down. My dog came into my room and I cried into his fur and he layed next to me. For months I cried myself to sleep. The thought of Jackson breaking my heart.
