sorry for any mistakes and don't be triggered that i wrote in only lower case ;))
first chapter = background so you could skip and still be fine (i always get bored at the start of books so i understand the struggle)
*beep beep*
the familiar yet unwelcoming song of my alarm blasts through my dreams harshly pulling me back to reality. i enjoy sleeping - as any teenager does. it gives me a sense of somewhat of a "calm before the storm."
that is - until i wake up and realize that today is... wait for it... moving day. yay *said with as much sarcasm as i can muster at this early in the morning.*
"GET UP LOSER AND GET YOUR LAZY ASS OUT OF BED"
the screaming this early could only mean that the house was on fire or my best friend, lily had come over. lily has always been a morning person which had struck me as impossible to understand.
it takes her to physically drag me out of the bed to get me up but this doesn't stop her.
"everything is already packed into the truck"
her frown is noticeable on her face so i pull her into a tight hug.
i am not one who cries but in this moment i couldn't help myself. i understand why we are moving. now that my mom died and my brother is off the college, my dad received an amazing job opportunity. but it still hurts to leave all of my friends and anything i had ever known behind.
i was very popular at my school here and had been on the varsity hockey team since i had started the high school. i loved my girls and was heart broken to leave them all. especially because i was voted the junior captain but now that i am moving, that position was given to lily.
"ladies ladies let's get going"
my older brother, nathan who just so happens to flirt with any girl breathing so rudely interrupts our miniature pity party.
"lily don't cry that i'm going to college, you know i'll find a way over if your parents ever leave you home alone"
lily throws a pillow at his dumb face and he reluctantly leaves the room. we look back at eachother and begin our final walk through the house and into the car which will take me to the airport.
"so i guess this is when i'm going to say goodbye to my best friend"
"don't worry, we will facetime every night and i can visit in the summer"
we both lean in for one last hug before my dad, nathan and myself pile into our car which would be followed by the moving truck.
lily - who was the closest thing to a sister to me that i will ever had finds herself in a fit of tears as the car pulls me away from her and the rest of my life i am leaving behind. i quickly find it hard to breath and process everything.
