(A/N: Hey guys! This chapter IS NOT finished but because I'm about to log out and make a new account, I don't want it to go to waste! Love you guys! Byeeee)

There's only one problem now...

Where do I go?

I pulled out my phone and scrolled through my contact list. I decided to call Christina. She was like a second mom to me.

She finally picked up after the third ring.

"Hey Christina!"

"Oh hey, Lavender! How's it going?" she asked excitedly.

"I'm doing... good. I was wondering if I could spend a few nights at your place...?"

"Yeah, sure, of course!"

"Thanks, Chris, see you in ten,"

I hung up before looking around, and started walking. Corbyn and Christina don't live too far from home. Sadly, the band is on tour, so it's just Christina and their three year old son, Ryan.

Ryan can be quite the handful. He's super energetic and smart. You'd think he's on a sugar rush 24/7.

After a slow 5 minute walk, I arrived at Christina's house. It wasn't too big or too small; just right for the family of three.

It had about 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, a big pool and even a jacuzzi.

I knocked on the door and waited a minute or two before the door swung open, startling me a bit.

"Hi Lavy!" Ryan yelled, jumping up and down in excitement.

"Hey Ry! I haven't seen you in a while."

"Mommy was making late lunch, wanna come in?"

I replied with a nod and closed the door behind me. We walked- well, I walked, Ryan ran- to the kitchen. We found Christina with oven mittens on, taking some chicken nuggets out of the oven.

"Sup Chris. How're you holding up?"

"Hey Lav, I'm doing good. Ryan's just really busy."

"This lil' guy's a handful, isn't he?" I ruffled Ryan's hair playfully as he tried to hit my hand away. I giggled and turned my attention back to Christina again.

"I got into trouble again..." I hung my head in shame. I heard Christina sigh in disappointment.

"Lavender... " she trailed off.

"Why don't you go eat inside, Ryan. Please?" Christina said looking at Ryan who was trying to listen in on our conversation. He nodded before making his way to the next room.

"Alright, what did you do this time, Lavender?" she asked once Ryan was out of the room.

"Just got into a fight with Alex The Raccoon again,"

Christina and I had given all the Wanna Be's in my school nicknames. We called Alex a raccoon because she tried doing some weird makeup look that totally flopped and just made her resemble a raccoon.

"Lavender, I told you to try and avoid her. She's just an attention seeking parasite. It's not worth your time to get all worked up." she said softly as she took a seat next to me.

"I know, I know. I got expelled, by the way."

"Lavender!!" Christina yelled out in both anger and surprise as she sort of playfully hit my arm.

"Sorry...?" I said sheepishly as she shook her head.

"Well, I'm sure Gabbie already yelled at you or something so instead I'll be the cool aunt ask you if you wanna go binge watch Teen Wolf and eat a bunch of junk food." Christina said standing up.

I replied with a "Sure" and got out some snacks as Chris got a few pillows and a blanket.

We ended up watching TV for about 4 hours. I helped Chris make some dinner and soon after eating we all went to bed.

[ the next morning ]

Sunlight burned my eyes as I internally wished that someone would close the curtains.

I rolled out of bed, groaned, closed the curtain and got back into bed to try and get some more sleep.

Sadly the universe hates and I obviously couldn't fall back asleep. Great.

My tummy rumbled as I decided it was best to get some breakfast before I die of starvation.

I jogged down the stairs as the smell of bacon and eggs filled my nose.

I entered the kitchen, seeing Christina dressed, in front of the stove as she cooks some bacon.

"Morning Chris," I said loudly, now fully awake because of the scent of food.

My stomach rumbled some more as I sat down quickly.

"Jesus, you scared me!" Christina said as we both started laughing a bit.

"Breakfast is almost ready. I made some bacon, eggs and toast. I even bought you some fresh bagels on the way home." she added excitedly.

My grin grew as I said "Wow, sounds great. Thanks."
