'Will you go to italy with me' These words have been stuck in my head for days. I have to say yes, I agreed to the deal. I really want to go and stuff. But. What about my mom. I will miss her and she will miss me. I have to tell her a lie. The school will probably go tell her anyways. How do I do that?
I decided to text Harry if he got an Idea of what we could do. Just lying to everyone is not that cool. The truth will come out anyways. Maybe he has an idea. Maybe that could include a lie. He's too clever for a lie. Maybe it's a good lie.

I cant stop thinking about it and it doesn't take long for him to respond.
"We should tell the school we both are going on a family business trip and we tell your mom that you're going on a school trip. Easy" hmm. 'Easy'. I guess that's the only way to do it. Will I be happy about lying? No. Will I do it anyway? Yes. I actually do lie a lot and I hate it but we always have to get out someway. Lots of thoughts are going through my mind. Should I tell Kate? Or Melanie? When are we going there? Is it too soon to pack my bag? Will harry bring someone? Is this some weird kidnapping? Wait. What if it's a trick? Never could that happen. Also if it was I would go run away at the right time.

I decided to pack my bags and tell everyone lies. Harry told me it's for the better and he also told me the date. We're going in 1 week. Which is the week my mom will be working even longer so she wont mind. I'm going to school tomorrow and I will say that I have to go on this trip. Harry and I will only be gone for a week. He told me a lot of stuff about where we are staying. We will live in his house he bought there. He is interested in Italy aswell. There was a forest near us. It should be really big and you can go on walks for hours and it wont get boring. It's going to be so exciting and sad at the same time. I will try to get my thoughts on all the good things. I should rather sleep now and get ready for my lie. Going to sleep is so relaxing after today. Just laying in my bed made me go straight up to sleep.

'Hey can you help me?' Not again...
