Luna's POV
I watched as Zion walked out of my house. It's like a a part of my life walked out of that door. But oddly enough, I felt free. Like a huge weight was taken off of my shoulders. I walked over to where Ollie was laying. I sat next to him and ran my fingers across his back. "It's time for us now Ollie. Just you and me" I said, feeling content with myself. I loved Zion since I was 18. But over time, we grew apart. In the end, I think all that was left was the hurt and loneliness. I fell hard for him and I think that's what screwed me over. Because the harder I fell for him, the more of a chance there was of getting hurt. I think if he didn't send those messages, it was a blessing in disguise. I would have never left this city. I know I wouldn't have accepted the job offer. This is it, this is where I am set free. To do what I want and to be happy. He has a baby on the way, he has Mya. I know she felt threatened by me. I'm not the one to talk shit but Mya was insecure about her relationship with him. And for that, I feel sorry for her. She won't find true happiness if she continue to lives this way. I do hope she makes him happy. He needs that. He probably doesn't deserve it but in some fucked up way, he does. I heard my phone ringing, knocking me out of my thoughts. 'New York' the caller Id read. I swiped right to answer the call.
Hello?
Hi, is this Luna Smith?
This is she
Hi Luna, this is Amanda from Metropolitan Museum I was calling to ask if it was okay if you could come down early. We need you sooner than we had anticipated. We are willing to pay for your flight.
How soon are we talking?
Tomorrow night. I know it's short notice but we need you soon.
That shouldn't be a problem. I would have to find a way to send my belonging there. But other than that, i should be good to go!
Wonderful, we'll give the movers a call first thing in the morning. Your things would be picked up by noontime.
Okay, great. I'll hear from you soon right?
Yes Luna, I'll call tomorrow. Sorry for the late notice! Can't wait to see you!
Likewise Amanda. Bye
End of call
Wow, okay. I need to let my friends know. I quickly texted the group chat and asked them to come over as soon as possible. This is crazy, this is my last night here. And then I'm off to NYC. I'll be doing what I love most. I'll be in a new place, with a fresh start. I will be closing a chapter of my life and opening a new one. After all the hardship, I will be okay. Here's to new beginnings.

"Okay so what's going on?" Kyra said as she sat down. The pm boys were here, Kyra, and Gilinsky were here. Clearly confused on why I asked them to be here. "So I received a call earlier...turns out I'll be leaving tomorrow night. They need me sooner so this is my last night here." I said with tears in my eyes. Edwin ran up to me, embracing me in a hug. I didn't care if I was crying. I'm leaving my best friends here while I go to the other side of the country. "I'm gonna miss you stormy. So fucking much" Edwin mumbled. I gave him a squeeze and held onto him. "I'm gonna miss you too Eddie." I whispered. "Let us hug her Edwin" Austin whined. I pulled away laughing and looking over at my friends. Each of them held a sad expression. Austin was next to hug me, I could've sworn I felt him cry. He wouldn't admit to it but I know he is. Hell, I'm crying like a baby right now. One by one, I hugged my best friends. We shared memories and stories of one another. Kyra had brought out the white wine and white claws. Music played in the background, while we laughed with one another. This was the best way to end my chapter here in LA. This is a night I won't forget. A night that I will cherish for as long as I live.
