This sucks. One day I was just minding my own business and next thing I know, my whole life is down the drain. Everything just turned bad and she's making me write it all down. My therapist, I mean. She says that if I write it all down, my life may go back to the way it was before. Before...Well, you'll see.
Before that night I had everything, the perfect boyfriend, the family anyone would want, and the best friends in an amazing school. Even my future was planned out perfectly. I could have had anything I wanted.
We had just moved to a new house far away from the place I used to, in New York. The house I was born in. Of course I thought it wasn't going to turn out well. It never does for those girls in the books and movies when they move. My parents said I could make new friends and the school they found was great. I refused to believe them.
Anyway, we were unpacking the boxes in the new house and the neighbors, well, it seemed more like the whole town (since it was so small) came over to welcome us with potato salads, Jell-O, and all the stuff that I never knew people actually gave to new neighbors. Only one family, the ones directly next to us, stayed to help us unpack.
Once we were finished with most of the boxes downstairs, my parents ordered pizza for everyone and told me to take the son upstairs to start on my room, so they could talk.
He and I walked up the stairs to the room on the end, mine, which had boxes coating the floor. He sat in the middle of the room and motioned for me to follow.
"I can't believe they actually trust me up here alone with you." He said smiling, "Normally my parents are all gay and think I'm going to rape any girl I meet."
I laughed. Most guys that I meet are quiet and refuse to talk to me. This was a nice change, and to know that he lives next door... I thought to myself, this place may not be as bad as I thought. Then again, I was here only for a few hours.
"Yah, my parents are normally really bad with me and that sort of stuff too," I said lying. You see, the few (more like one) friend I had was a girl, so I couldn't even think about asking a guy to come over, but I didn't want to come of as a pussy. I mean, this place was my chance to actually become someone.
We talked for hours, unpacking my boxes and making the place look somewhat like a real room. As we were finishing up, his parents came upstairs to take him home. Just as she was walking out the door, he said, "See you tomorrow," which reminded me that I had school the next day.
After they had left, I got changed and ready for bed, though, I new sleep wouldn't come easily that night. I mean, it was the first day at a brand new school with new kids and everything. It's terrifying, especially with the old reputation that I had. That, of all things, I didn't want to pass on to this school too. I wanted to be just like those girls on TV who had millions of friends, the ones whom everyone loved. You know, the popular girls.
As I thought on, I drifted slowly into sleep, only to be woken a few hours later by the scream of my alarm.
