Before I knew it, it was May and I was packing for both tour, and moving to Cali.

I still haven't told Sophie. She's so excited to travel the country and perform, I don't want this to ruin that for her. Everyone knows I haven't told her, so they're going to try to not talk about it over summer.

The first show is in Pennsylvania and it's in a week and a half.

R5, along with everyone else, left Cali in the beginning of the week so they could travel to Ohio so Sophie and I can get situated on the bus before we leave for Pennsylvania.

It's pretty cool, they found us a band to play with us so we don't have to do an acoustic set. We're really excited about that.

We've also decided on our set list. They allowed us to sing 6 songs; so I picked two, Sophie picked two, and we both came up with two other songs and decided that those two would get switched out with other songs through the tour so we don't get bored of singing the same songs all summer.

Today is Sophie and I's last day of school. We decided it'd be best if we stopped going at the end of the week, than go for a half week next week. We've done all the work we're going to miss and have turned it in.

Some people in choir were jealous that we were starting a music career already because that's what they want to do. A lot of people have supported us too; there's a few who told us that they got tickets to the show downtown just to see us.

The end of the day was hard for me. This was going to be the last time I'd be here for school. It's kinda sad that all the people that I've grown up with, I won't be graduating with.

"It's crazy thinking that today was our last day of school and we're traveling the country with R5." Sophie says when I'm taking her home from school.

"I know. It's unreal. It feels like yesterday I was just finding out about R5 and wishing that I could be with Ross, and now I actually am. And I never thought I'd be opening for them."

"All of our dreams are finally coming true."

We listen to the radio and sing along the rest of the way to Sophie's.

Once I got home, I went in my room and started packing more stuff.

Half of my room is packed in boxes; most of my clothes are in bags for the bus, and the rest of the stuff is furniture that won't be taken apart to move until after we get back.

That's really how most of the house is. It's kind of crazy right now.

I haven't spoken to my dad since that day I blew up at him, and I honestly don't care. My mom told him that we were moving to Cali and he didn't care.

"Hey Chelsea, can you run to the store and get some butter?" Mom yells from downstairs.

I get my shoes on and grab my keys and head to the store.

Once I get there, I go right to where I need to go, and then check out.

I reach down and grab butter, and turn around without looking. I run right into someone.

"Watch where you're going." The lady yells a little at me.

I look up.

It's Rachael.

"Why don't you leave me alone?" I say back.

"Oh, it's just you. I hope you're happy, you're father's miserable now that you won't talk to him."

"Well maybe if you weren't so psychotic I wouldn't have an issue with either one of you."

"You're always going to be a selfish, spoiled little brat." She tells me. "You're worthless. No one would ever want to be with you."

"That's why I'm dating Ross Lynch."

"Who?"

"Ross Lynch. The guy who 'I supposedly mean nothing to and he would never like me.'" I say using the words she told me last summer when I told her I met him.

"He probably just feels bad for you. You two won't last long."

"You know what; you're not worth it." I say walking away from her.

When I get home, I go in the kitchen and give my mom the butter she needs to finish dinner. I tell her about my encounter with Rachael.

"She's pathetic." Mom says after I tell her.

"I know. I'm so glad we're moving to Cali so I never have to deal with either one of them."

After dinner, I finish packing some stuff. I'm trying to get all my packing done within the next couple days so I'm not rushing when we leave.

My phone rings and it's Rydel.

"Hey!" I answer.

"Hey! How's everything going?" She asks.

"Pretty good. I'm finishing up some packing right now."

"That's good! We should be there within the next two days."

"Awesome! I'm so excited!"

"So are we! I'm excited to see you and Sophie perform. You're going to kill it!"

"Hopefully. We've figured out what songs we're singing." I tell her.

"Ooh! What songs?" She asks.

"You'll find out soon enough!"

We talk for about an hour.

After I'm done talking to Rydel, I get ready for bed.
