9 You're leaving....

As I step into the school hallway I look around for Izzy.

This is normally where Izzy and I meet but she is no where in sight.

"brrr" my phone vibrates

I check it and it's a text from Izzy, it reads " meet me in the rest room"

something must be wrong , we only meet there when we have to talk about something that involves crying.

I hurry there and I'm immediately pulled into a hug by Izzy

she starts tearing up and I have to ask,

"what's wrong Izzy".

" my parents", she sniffles

Izzy's parents have been having a lot of problems recently maybe that's why she's sad.

" Did they fight this morning?"

" no Beth they're actually trying to work things out"

"isn't that good news, why are you sad"

"it's good news but because they're trying to work things out, they feel they need a fresh start in a new environment in a new country and I have to go with them Betty I'm moving ", Izzy cries out louder,

wait a minute...

fresh start...

new country....

moving....

Tears start to flow out of my eyes too.

I may never see Izzy again.

It may look like we are overreacting but we have had only each other for a really long time and I'm not sure if you've noticed but we're not the most social kind of people so this move would affect both of us really well. I can't imagine coming to school and not seeing Izzy , it wouldn't feel right at all.

we release ourselves from the hug , sit on the floor and rest our backs on the wall

we look so weird sitting on the rest room floor.

Don't worry about the dirt , our school cleaners do a really good job of keeping our floors clean, plus it's still early so no one has messed it up yet.

" when are you leaving " I clean my tears away

"this saturday" she whispers

"what, and they're just telling you now, why? " I scream.

" apparently they were waiting for the right time to tell me " she rolls her eyes at the 'right time'

"And this is their definition of the right time, the same week that they're planning to move. I think I need to have a word or two with those parents of yours "

"cool down Betty , but if you look at it in a way it could be the universe's way of telling us that we need to expand our social lives and make more friends"

"maybe you're right, we should go to class now, I'm having Mr Napoleon"

she stands up and drags me up.

"Bye we'll talk during lunch"

"okay"

I go through one hallway while she goes through another

I can't believe I lost track of time , I'm like 15 minutes late for maths and what's worse is that the teacher is really strict .

I increase my walking pace that it's like I'm running .

"I'm so sorry " I apologise after I accidentally hit someone causing the books in his hands to fall , I automatically bend down to help him pick up his books ,when I'm done I stand up to give him his books just to see a smile on Zach's face , "could this day get any worse" I whisper

"what was that" he asked still smiling

"nothing" I try not to blush this boy is just so cute the way his eye kinda shines as he looks at me , his blonde messy hair

not to mention his sparkly brown eyes don't ask me how brown sparkles just look at Zach's eyes and you'll know and don't get me started on his lips, even on just a pair of blue jeans and a shirt he still looks so good.

As much as I'd love to stay and chat I'm still late for a certain Mr Napoleon's class.

"sorry I've got to go I'm late for class "

I start to run again I think I hear him shout "we'll talk during lunch", but I'm probably hallucinating because someone like Zach wouldn't want to sit with me during lunch when they're so many hot girls who he could sit with.

" Mrs Clinton you are late for this class why don't you just go out there's only twenty minutes left for this class " Mr Napoleon shouts as I open the door to first period maths

I try to beg but he cuts me short and doesn't allow me to enter the class.

Just great what am I supposed to do for twenty minutes.

I wish Izzy was here.

"hi" someone taps me behind , could it be that a wish of mine has finally been answered .

I turn around and see Jake .... well wishes still don't come true but at least if I can't have my best friend here might as well have former best friend here.

"why aren't you in class ?" he asks

"I came late so I got kicked out, why are you not in class?"

"I don't have a class right now , I'm having a free period"

"why do I find that hard to believe"

"maybe it's because you have trust issues"

"I do not"

"yes you do"

"no"

"yes"

"no"

"yes"

"ok maybe a little"

"yay I win " he says and has this goofy childlike smile on his face making his blue eyes look brighter.

"I see you haven't changed at all".

"so where's the music room in this school"

"it's this way follow me, I'll show you "

I lead the way and he follows behind.

"here we are, welcome to the great Hensworth academy's music room" I open the door slowly to create a dramatic effect.

our music room is actually nice, there's enough space and a lot of instruments , the only problem is most students prefer doing other things than spending time here.

"wow it's pretty cool" Jake says as he walks in and sits on the piano , I sit beside him.

He starts playing it and I look at him in shock , the Jake I remember didn't know how to play any instruments except for the drums.

"I didn't know you could play"

"they're a lot of things you don't know about me "

I start to laugh "that sounds like something I've heard in a movie"

he just looks at me and smiles ,still playing the piano,

"why did you learn how to play"

"it's a secret"

"why " I ask

"why"he also asks , which is confusing

" why why"I ask why he said why

"why why why" he replies proving that he still hasn't changed .

"what is wrong with you" I burst out into laughter.

.... .. ... ..

classes , classes and classes , finally it's the time I've been waiting for...

Lunch time.

"Izzy today is Tuesday so we have approximately three days to go"

"yeah we have to make the most of this last days together" Izzy suggests,

"Izzy maybe this isn't such a bad idea, you have a chance to actually start over, to be whoever you want to be"

Izzy looks at me and smiles

"I'll miss you" she says

"I'll miss you too " I reply

"who's leaving" Zach asks from nowhere as he, Jeremy and Jake sit down at our table,

Izzy and I exchange confused looks

"who's leaving" Jeremy asks again probably because no one answered the first time.

"I'm moving away" Izzy answers.

" woah so how are you girls spending your last days together" Zach asks

"that's what we were just thinking about before you guys came here", I reply and blush a little as he smiles at me.

Jake notices and chuckles

" I'm throwing a party at my house this night , if you guys don't have anything to do you can come over "Jeremy says ..
