Becoming One

Look whose back in town

"CHRISSSSSS wake up you snoring butt! Its the first day of school and your going to be late!!!!" My older sister, who was recently married, yells at me from her room. My eyes flutter open as i take in my surroundings. My new surroundings. I move my body to the side and look at the alarm clock. 8:10. SH**. Im gonna be late. As i get ready I take out a silver linen box from under my bed and opened it.

A picture of my best friend Luke Hemmings hangs up on the inside of the lid. I add another number card into it, 2 and a half years. Thats how long I havent seen him for. He just vanished, without a say. He was everything to me. But now hes gone. I close the lid as a single tear trails down my face and I tuck the box under my bed. I wear a white fluffed out blouse, casual black jeans, Brown leather boots and a Bethany Mota necklace. I make my auburn hair into a messy bun and grab my bag as I head to my moms room. She has a severe sickness so she cant get around. Shes asleep and looks at rest, I gently kiss her on the forehead and exit her room. I head downstairs and my little golden retriever, Hawaii, barks as if to say hello. Luke gave me her on my 13th birthday. My sister was already downstairs making pancakes and laughing with her husband. Andrew, he was the sweetest thing alive. "Hey there cupcake" he says as he puts down a plate of pancakes with honey infront of me. " just the way I like it , thanks" I say with a smile. I quickly shove the pancakes up my throat and leave. Under the hugs and kisses I spot my dad waiting in the car. For me I guess.

I head down the driveway and head down the driveway ditching him. My direction is in the direction of the bus. Perfect. I guess he saw that because he gets out of his car and jogs after me. " Honey, I thought you forgave me" he says. F u. " dont call me that, or else I will punch you." I say quiet simply. " excuse me " he says as the bus strolls in. " look I made a mistake everyone does right?" "Stfu, and stay away from me " I yell at him as tears flow down my face , and I enter the bus. He looks hurt, but who cares not after what hes done.

The school looks beautiful . But its a mess with all the kids trying to make their way to there teachers. So I find my group of friends and collapse. " omg chris that outfit is so chic" my frenchie friend , Bella says. "Thanks" I say with a smile. She moved here with me to comfort me of the loss of Luke. Shes the best. "Hey Chris, so how bout that date of ours?" Drake an annoying yet playful jock at this school says. " F off you know I dont date". And its true im 18 but I dont date. Ever. "Fine you'll regret it" he says as he walks off to pin another girl and harass her.I take out a bag of chips and munch on them as i scan the clearing for someone else to talk too. And then I see it. The blue lip ring. I gave that to him on his 14th birthday. It cant be. No its not. But then I see the tattoo he got on his wrist, it was my name in an infinity sign. And right away I know its him.
