Lucy's POV

I quietly walked down the stairs hoping mom would be home. Usually she leaves for work around 6:30 on Mondays. I sighed in content as she was still in the kitchen drinking coffee.

"Mom can I talk to you?" I said while looking at her.

"Sure sweetie." She smiled. I smiled back before sitting on a chair in front of her.

"I was wondering..if you don't mind. You know you always wanted me to study in LA instead of Nebraska and I always denied it right?" I asked. I wanted to go in LA and start my life a fresh and forget my past, that was the only thing that could help me.

"Yes?" She asked now clearly interested since she had put down her newspaper and coffee.

"I...I want to go to LA." I sighed whole looking down. I didn't know if it was the best decision for the future but right now it looked like the best thing to just get away from my problems.

"Are you sure honey? And if you don't mind me asking why the sudden decision?" She asked clearly surprised.

I sighed sadly thinking it was finally time to tell her about the break up. It's not like she cared anyways so what's the worse that could happen.

"Please don't get mad at me but...Jack and I broke up." I looked down. I was surprised I didn't cry for the first time.

"Is that why you've been skipping school and ignoring all your friends?" She asked.

"How did you know I was ignoring my friends?" I looked up quickly and raised my eyebrow curiously.

"Clarissa came over asking to talk to you and asked anything was wrong since you were ignoring her. I told her you weren't home since you didn't even talk to me so how would you to talk to her." She explained as I nodded understanding. I'm glad she lied to her since I didn't want to talk to anyone before but I think I'm better now since I've planned everything.

"So can I go to LA?" I asked eagerly.

"Well if you really want to go then why not. I will talk to your dad as soon as I can and then you'll be able to go but it might take a while. I'm glad you've made the choice." She smiled.

"Thanks mom." I genuinely smiled before hugging her which also surprised her since it had been long since I had hugged her. We had always been so distant. The only thing I did was talk to her. I wished her a good day before walking upstairs. I had one job done and I know had to fix other things with my friends before leaving and Alex...I needed to break up because I knew this long distance relationship wouldn't work out. It was gonna be hard since I think I actually liked him but it's for the best. I laid back down on my bed thinking what I should do the whole day before looking at the clock. It was 6:25. School started at 7:30 and I still had the time to get ready. I could just spend the few days left at school to get my mind off things and then leave Nebraska. That would be perfect. I smiled as I got up from my bed to get ready for school. I still had the time to shower so I did so before wearing casual clothes and doing my makeup. By the time I was done it was 7:03. I could eat a little breakfast then leave for school.

I was actually really nervous to go back to school. I didn't even know if Clarissa or any of my classmates would even talk to me. As I sat down in the driver's seat of my car, I thought about Jack. I would have to see him at school. Probably with another girl and at this idea my heart started beating faster. I needed to stop thinking about him. I started my car before driving at school. Once I got there, I parked the car and got out walking inside quickly.

I looked around realizing that it had been a long time since I had come to school. I had kind of missed school as weird as it sounded. I walked towards my locker and saw Clarissa at her locker which happened to be right beside mine. She was alone since that's how it always had been. Clarissa and me were just two. We had no other friends. As I got closer I gently tapped her shoulder after looking down. I regretted it so much that I ignored her. She had always been there to support me.

"Lucy!" She exclaimed before hugging me. I hugged her back while smiling.

"I'm so sorry." I apologized. She pulled out of the hug before looking at me confused.

"Why?"

"I've been ignoring you and being rude to you. It's just that I've been having a rough time and I didn't want to talk to anyone about it." I ignored eye contact with her while thinking about Jack. I really did hope I didn't see him today. I wouldn't be able to last the whole day.

"It's okay I understand but what was the reason? If you don't mind me asking." She looked at me curiously.

"Jack and I...broke up." Right after I finished that sentence she hugged me and said 'I'm so sorry' but it wasn't gonna help. It had been more than a month and I still was stuck thinking about him even when I'm dating Alex. I didn't understand why he even was in my mind when he was a jerk.

"It's honestly okay. I also need to tell you something important. Please don't freak out." I said afterwards.

Right as she was about to speak the first bell rung. I told her that I would tell her at lunch since we didn't have any classes together at the first 2 periods. I needed to tell her as soon as possible that I was leaving so I could spend time with her. I was gonna miss her so much but I needed to get away from him. I took my Math books and bid her goodbye before walking towards the class. I was glad I didn't have any classes with Jack since he was a senior and I was a junior.
