"Mom, hurry up you're late!" 

"I'm driving as fast as I can honey, what do you wan- oh my god! I just about crashed into someone! Sorry mam, I'm just in a rush."

"Just, please get here as quick as you can. Please? I'm freezing my ass off."

I hung up the phone and stuffed it in what felt like a ten pound backpack. Jesus christ, they expect us to do this in one day?

I saw Grayson walking down the hall and ran up to him with a smile. 

"Hey Gray, all packed and ready?" I cheered.

He didn't look up a me, he didn't reply either.

"Hello? Hey? Wanna come back down to earth?" I waved my hand in his face.

"Kayla, I can't talk to you anymore." He said.

I laughed, "We don't have time for this, or else we're gonna miss the movie c'mon let's go." I tugged his arm.

"Seriously Kayla stop! I'm not kidding I can't hang out with you anymore!" He pulled away.

I frowned. "What do mean? Did I, did I do something?"

"No I just..It's hard to explain okay."

"Don't worry, you don't have to be scared. Just come out and say it, you can tell me." I spoke in a soft tone.

He sighed. "Look, we're not those little third graders anymore. We just don't fit and it's just awkward. I'm a whole different person now and people like me don't hang out with people like you."

"Wow, don't act like we weren't just laughing about how everybody takes everyone else so seriously at this school yesterday." I felt my eyes getting heavy.

"That's over now. You're just..kind of a loser." 

I was at my breaking point right then.

"You know what? I may be a loser, but you're a fucking jerk!" I yelled.

I ran out of the building with tears coming out of my eyes and rolling down my cheek. I don't need him. I don't need him at all.
