"order for alyssa." thank you jesus for getting me out of that awkward situation.

"i got to go." i said.

"what were you doing over here anyway? being nosey?" payton asked and rolled his eyes.

"nope, definitely not. i had to pee. can you not see the sign right there?" i pointed and rolled my eyes.

"oh." he said and shrugged.

"i'm going." i said.

i grabbed my drink and food.

i turned around and noticed anthony was there.

"oh, hi." i said half smiling.

"i'm sorry about payton. he's changed so much every since he started hanging around avani." he sighed.

"does he not know what she done?" i asked, my eyes brows lacing together.

"i guess not. id hope not anyway." he said.

"right. can i talk to you?" i asked glancing at his table where everyone was staring.

"yea about what?" he asked.

"not here." i said hinting to go outside where it was half as private.

he nodded and grabbed my hand, pulling me out the door.

"sooo, whats this about?" he questioned.

i pulled him into a hug, which he gladly hugged back.

he had a strong grip on my waist.

"i'll tell you now. but don't pull away from the hug. i dont want to see your reaction." i said frowning.

i felt him nod and kept going.

"i'm moving saturday." i said quietly.

i felt him freeze.

he pulled away and looked at me in disbelief.

"you're what?" he asked a little loud.

"shh be quiet. but i'm moving." i said looking down.

"why, and where." he asked picking my head up.

"i'm moving to california, and because my mom found out about some things and she's sick of it." i looked deep into his beautiful blue eyes.

"aly, what things?" he asked.

when i didn't answer her asked again, but more sternly.

"that i was being slut shamed, told to kill my self, and she found out i was cutting." i whispered the last part.

he pulled me into one of the greatest hugs he's ever gave me.

"aly, why would you cut. why would you do that to yourself." he asked. you know that voice where someone's about to cry and you can tell by their voice? yea that's what he sounded like.

it broke me.

"i thought i lost you all for good. i mean i basically did. and moving ain't going to fix that." i whispered. my voice was breaking too.

"you can't go to a new school, not with the way your anxiety is." he said caressing my cheek.

"im being homeschooled, my mom doesn't want this to happen again." i said nodding at myself.

"let me help you pack atleast." he pleaded.

"i've already finished." i sadly laughed.

"come on. there has to be something you haven't done." he said.

"when i came home from school today our house was fully packed. apart from my room." i frowned.

"then come to my house for the night. my mom is out of town for the week, we can play video games, it'd be great. i can't let you leave without spending time with me." he chuckled.

"you know that would just make the slut shaming worst." i said looking down.

"nobody gotta know, at all. it can just be us. i promise. you can get ready at my house in the morning and i'll drop you off to pick up your car." he said hopefully.

"you know what? fine." i said giving in. "only because i love you." i smiled.

"and i love you too."

"but for right now. i'm going to go home and get my things together while y'all finish up what y'all are doing, and i'll text you." i said.

"ofcourse. i'll see you later aly." he smiled hugging me.

"see ya." i hugged back.

i looked back as he was walking in. he acted very happy.

i looked through a window, and noticed that everyone from anthony's booth was staring at us.

i shrugged it off and walked to my car.

im actually so excited for tonight.
