3 // black skinny jeans

  

Charlie's flicker her eyes to a warm sensation on her skin as the heat shines from her window, and down to her face. She push's herself up by her elbows and walk into the bathroom looking at her bed-head and she lightly brush it. She get changed into black skinny jeans and a white arctic monkeys top, and puts on her black vans. Charlie grab's her bag and skateboard, yelling goodbye to Alex and running out the door shut the door behind her, She skates down the road making a few tricks on the way. 

Charlie was at a loss of words and couldn't really deal at the moment, She missed her old friends from her old school 2 years ago but that was a different time and she knew that it was in a different circumstance but she felt different with them. Charlie walk though the halls gathering her thoughts and looking the floor and not the people in the halls, Like she says "Keep your head down" but as she looks up she gets smashed against her locker 

"Out of my way fagot" Juliet yells laughing

"WHORE!" they laugh walking away

Charlie was used to this, it was better than her old school but not perfect. Charlie only had the end of this year and then she can get the hell out of here, and thats all she wanted to do is to get out of Sydney away from the people and the place. But she didn't know where yet. 

She just wants this year to be over and she will miss Lia but she will keep in contact but charlie will never step foot in this town again, As soon as she walk of that stage she's gone... Charlie wants to get into a good collage so she is studding a lot and her grades have gone back up but it just that she can't let them go back down. 

Charlie has a plan and it all evolves around leaving this town for good. She thinks she wants to go to NYU on a scholarship but she also really wants to live in London and the university is amazing so she can just start over. Charlie can't stop thinking about Alex though, she will miss him but I can't stay here and Charlie has been the one looking after him but she need to think for herself as well. Charlie always thought about her future and if she had one. Charlie's mum started to call her,

"Charlie" charlie's mother Melissa 

"Hey mum" charlie sighs

"I'm staying here for month" Melissa says 

"Why am I not surprised" Charlie rolls her eyes

"Don't be like that charlotte" Melissa barks

"1) thats not my name and 2) you need to start being there for Alex" Charlie says 

"Charlie" Melissa warns 

"No, Not for me but for him!" Charlie yells

"I will be off at collage soon. and I don't want him to be alone" Charlie adds

"I was a great mother, I am a great mother" Melissa says to herself

"Sure, whatever gets you to sleep at night"  Charlie says before she hangs up

Charlie spent the day trying not to think about Alex and how he will leave yet take care of him, maybe he could take him with her but charlie doesn't have the money nor it to take care of a kid, let alone herself. Charlie's mom always pays for Alex just not for charlie, Alex goes to a private school, Charlie goes to a public school and It was alway like that. 

Charlie skated home like normal but stopped at coles to get groceries because charlie was making dinner like normally tonight. Charlie got home and walked up to Alex's room,

"Alex, mum isn't coming home for another month" Charlie frowns 

"Really??"Alex yells

"Sorry kido" Charlie gives him a hug

"Its fine Char" Alex hugs her back

"I really am" Charlie says

"I'm used to it" Alex sits on his bed

"Hows school" Charlie changes the subject 

"Alright" 

"Kids still picking on you?"

"Yeah, but its getting better" Alex smiles at charlie

"Good" Charlie smile

Charlie leaves Alex alone and walks up to her bed room because she wanted to have a nap before she studies and makes dinner. Charlie gets another kik message and assumes it's lia, 

  

Luke.Hemmo - Hey

Charlie1996 - What do you want?

Luke.Hemmo - I wanna ask you something

Luke.Hemmo - Don't ignore me

Luke.Hemmo - Charlie?

Charlie was confused about why Luke was talking to her, she is a nobody and if he knew who she actually was he would hate and run from her. Charlie jumped into bed and turned off the lights just lying there in the darkness in till she fell asleep.
