I wake up the next morning to the sound of my alarm going off as Emily lays silently in my arms.

I quietly remove my arm from under her head as I get up from the bed and make my way over to my closet.

I take out my red floral dress that came about mid-thigh and my black flats.

After taking a shower and getting ready, I wake Emily up and get her dressed so that

I can go straight so school after dropping her off at Austin's parents house.

I make my way down the stairs with Emily cradled in my arms.

Before even getting half way down the stairs I hear my parents arguing about money.

"I don't see why you even own that music shop! It's not doing anything for us, just making us pay more money that we don't have!"My mom yells.

It seemed that all they fought about was money.

We've been in this slump lately and it's really overwhelming them.

I pick up my backpack and make my way out the door with Em, walking next door to drop her off.

I knock on the door and Mrs. Moon soon answers, smiling widely. "Emmy!"She squeals, taking Emily from my arms. We go inside and I set Emily's baby-bag on the ground.

"Mommy will be back after school."I kiss her cheek, ready to leave out.

"Thank you Mrs. Moon."

"It's no problem at all."She says, still smiling.

I nod, making my way for the door just as Austin comes down the stairs.

"Ally, hey!"

"Oh hi Austin."I turn back around.

"Need a ride to school."He asks, making his way over towards his mom and Emily.

"No I'm fi-"

"C'mon I don't bite."He chuckles, giving Em a kiss on the cheek.

"Fine, but we should go now."I tell him.

He nods, grabbing car keys from the hook near the front door and heading out of the house.

School seemed to go by fast today. Usually it felt like everything was in slow motion but today it was the opposite of that.

Before I knew it, the bell rung signaling next period.

I didn't rush to back my things into my bag since I had lunch next.

I decide to just carry my bag with me instead of putting it in my locker like I usually do.

Making my way to the lunchroom , I see Cat along the way and she tells me about how her brother thought his head fell off.

Sometimes I worry about this girl.

We sit at the lunch table where Jade, Trish and Tori are waiting for us at.

"What's for lunch."I ask, looking at the three.

"Some kind of mystery meat?"Tori scrunches her face up in disgust.

"Looks like I'll past."I sigh.

I engage in conversation with Trish for a while until the whole lunchroom's attention is on someone who yell's 'excuse me!'

It was no other than Lexi, standing on top of the lunch table trying to get everyone's attention.

"This can't be good."Tori groans.
