Chapter One~
I sipped my pumpkin spice latte, scrolling through my Tumblr. Looking at the time on my laptop I sighed, realizing I had to get home or my mother would kill me for being late, especially since I start school at Jackson High tomorrow. I ran a hand through my blond hair, and closed my eyes. I really didn't want to go to school, but then again who does? I just hate being the new kid. The new senior. The new everything kind of.
If I had a choice I'd stay back at Ridge way High School. Even with all the fake bitches there. Pulling myself out of my thoughts I gathered my things and quickly put my laptop in my backpack. Slinging it over my shoulder I grabbed my latte and started heading out the door. I was just happy my Mother bought a house close to a shopping center, so I only had to walk about ten or fifteen minutes back home.
I plugged my head phones in and tugged my black french cuff black trench coat tighter around me. Even though it was the beginning of October it still seemed cold to me. I put on "Miss You" by Ed Sheeran, he's been my idol since he first came out. Walking along the sidewalk I zoned out thinking about Jake. Jake was my ex, a recent one as well. I broke it off because he just became a total douche bag to me since August. I really didn't know what had gotten into him until I checked my Facebook account. Maria, a popular girl at my old school, had been spreading rumours to people that I slept with a lot of people and blah blah blah. Which was all lies. I didn't wanna lose my v-card to just anybody! But Jake believed every single word she said. He didn't break it off though which surprised me.
He just fucking changed his relationship status to In A Open Relationship. Which pissed me off. First he doesn't even let me tell him how much of a bitchy liar Maria was and now he goes and changes us to an open relationship? I got so mad I changed mine to single and he called me saying he understood and all this shit. I loved him. I thought he trusted me you know? But I was wrong. Oh well, I won't let anybody hurt me like that again.
I walked up my stepped to my door and looked at my house. It was actually really cute. It was a light gray two story house, with a red door, and a dark gray fence in the back. I twisted the door knob and it opened, walking in I saw my Mother and my brother, Dylan, sitting at the table eating dinner. I muttered under my breathe. Great. Now she'll be pissed I'm late for dinner. I walked in and dropped my back pack gently on the couch, and took off my coat. I mother shook her head at what I was wearing, which was skinny jeans and a blue colored long sleeve t shirt. I shrugged at her, she always wanted me to look smart. I just don't like putting in effort. I mean whats the point? If somebody likes you they should like you for who you are not what you look like in my opinion.
I sat in my chair at the table and my Mother just stared at me. I wanted to raise my eyebrow and say "Can I help you with something?" but I bit my tongue to keep from speaking. "Next time be home before dinner starts," was all she said before turning back to what looked like chicken and rice. My brother just frowned at me and mouthed "Dad called". I instantly understood.
My Father divorced my Mom three years back. He found this young 26 year old girl and I think you get the point. My mother was devastated. She hasn't talked with us really anymore sense. Which I don't find entirely fair. It's not our fault Dad walked out! Hell, she should be even more protective with us or something. Dad usually only calls when he wants her to let him see us or if he's drunk and decides to wanna hurt my Mom all over again.
I stopped liking him the first time he called drunk. Dylan had started High school last year, and Dad called to ask him how his day was and then he asked for Dylan to give the phone to Mom. I don't understand how he could be so calm while being drunk talking with Dylan but he was. Then he just blew it at Mom. Making her lock herself in her room for almost a week.
By now I guess I'm used to taking care of myself, and my dog Sam. He's a Siberian husky, and everybody always says they're jealous that we have one. The thing is though that I got Sam for my birthday around the time Dad left, so I had nothing to do with him for about a month. But then I gave in to his cuteness and he became my dog. He usually sleeps with me, and just goes with me everywhere. He hated Jake. Guess I should have listened to him, huh?
I left the table and ran up the stairs into my room and quickly jumped into my trundle bed. I absolutely love my room. It was a teal color with wooden floors. My furniture was white and I had a mirror by my closet and it just looked all sorts of beautiful. I quickly pulled out my phone and scrolled through my twitter. Don't ask me why I have an account because I don't tweet anything. I just like knowing what my favorite celebs are doing or something.
Scrolling through most of my news feed I quickly gave up. Nothing new seemed to be happening with anybody. Nothing that would keep me out of my own thoughts. And the one time I wanted it too! I rolled out of my bed and walked over to my computer. Turning it on I quickly jumped onto my facebook. Changing my about me I logged off only to find myself dying of boredom. I was about to log off when my email notification popped up. I smiled already knowing who it was. My best guy friend Gage Myers usually only talked to me through email. Don't ask me why but he just perfers that or something.

Hey! So I heard you made it to Newport alright! You need to ride some waves for me out there or at least learn to LOL! By the way I asked Rosa out last night at the party. She totally said yes! I miss you Lilybean! Come back to Arizona!
I laughed at his old nick name for me. I decided I'd reply later seeing that it was already 8 o'clock. I still had to take my shower and go to bed early since tomorrow would be a WONDERFUL day!
Well atleast I hope it would be.
