We packed the last of the boxes into the truck before I turned to face Luna, Summer and Eleanor, who were happy for us but were sad that we were leaving.

"I don't want to go yet either but this is the way it is" I said knowing what they were thinking.

"You'll be fine, I mean at least you don't have to move schools as well" Luna shrugged, trying to lighten the mood.

I nodded before pulling everyone in for a group hug.

"Well I guess we'll see you next year" I said, pulling away.

Yes next year, now that we had fished exams we were on our summer break and that usually meant that I would spend time with Luna but due to 'chances' things have turned out differently this year.

"Summer, Sapphire. It's time to get going" Dad's voice was heard from behind us.

I turned and followed Summer as she made her way into the car.

This Summer may be a little different than I anticipated it.

We pulled up at the new house and jumped out the car and saw the beautiful house in front of us. I was actually quite big.

We followed our parents through the beautiful garden and to the front door.

We stepped through the front door and were shown to our bedrooms.

I walked into my bedroom and widened my eyes at how large it was. It was twice as big as my last room and my last room was huge, it had a bigger window, double doors and so much more head space.

I mean without all of my furniture in it felt really big but I think even when everything was still in here it would be massive.

I left my new bedroom and headed back downstairs, avoiding my parents because I really didn't want to face them right now.

I cannot believe they would just make the decision to move without one asking if we were ok with it and two telling only a week before we were actually going to be moving.

I met up with my sister who was sitting on the step at the back porch of the house.

I sat down next to her and placed an arm around her shoulder.

"It just feels awful" Was all she said and I knew she was referring to the moving.

"Yeah I know, but we'll get used to it eventually" I replied, sighing.

"You might but I don't know if I will, it just doesn't feel right" She said standing up and walking inside not even looking at mom and dad as she walked passed.

I took my phone out my pocket and realised that I had netball training in half an hour. I needed to call my netball friend bonnie and tell her what my new address was.

I texted her my new address since she already knew I was moving but she needed to know what my new address was.

After sending the message I slid my phone back into my pocket and headed upstairs to grabbed my netball training uniform from my netball bag upstairs.

I changed and slipped on my new shoes I brought the other week when I was shopping with Luna and Summer.

(Netball uniform on the side ---->)

I then felt my phone go off in my pocket. I pulled it out and saw it was a message from Bonnie.

We won't be long, we are actually right around the corner from you guys now. At least 5 minutes away.
