Coming home

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

I am leaving today. No more Springsville. No more Layla. No more Carly. They had come to say goodbye though.

I hugged them and we were all crying. I was wearing my new boots and dress and the accessories. I was about to get into the car when Carly gave me a little box. It had a little locket in it. I noticed that Carly and Layla was wearing one too and as I opened it I saw a picture that me and them took a few weeks ago at the carnival we went to.

Their locket had the same picture in it. "So you will remember us." Carly told me with a smile.

"How could I forget you? Besides, I already have the boots." I replied giving them a hug.

"Come on Sydney, we need to go." my mum said. I nodded.

This was it. I am leaving, not coming back for a while. "You can come and visit and I will do the same." I told Carly and Layla and they nodded.

I got into the car and dad started the engine. The weather was too unpredictable for me to ride my bike all the way today so it was being moved for me. We started to follow the last moving truck and I waved to Carly and Layla until we turned a corner. Tears were falling down my cheeks. Rose Hill all over again.

I put my headphones on and the world of music took over me. My favorite song came on.

Five hours later we had stopped for the seventh time because yet again my little sister Chloe needed the toilet. She was eight and she was drinking lemonade the whole way here. Only an hour to go. I told myself.

We set off again after she had done her buisness.

We were moving into our old house. Did I mention that Danny lived next door and our windows were about as far apart as the length of your arm? No? Well I have now.

Soon enough we were turning down the street and I was beginning to feel exited. I don't know why, I just am. My favorite song came on again.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tired of all the troubles they been wasting my time,

I don't wanna fight gonna leave it behind,

Taking on fate now I'm ready to fly,

I'm in the middle of starting over,

Back to the beginning gonna hit rewind,

Chance to do it over get it right this time,

Life gives you penny's turn them into dimes,

I'm in the middle of starting over.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The lyrics remind me of the situation I am in right now.

I got out of the car, headphones still over my ears, music blasting Pierce the Veil out loudly as I took them off and let them rest round my neck as my mom said something to me.

Then I saw him. I saw Danny walk out of the house.

"Hey mum," he shouted. I heard a faint "yeah" coming from inside the house. He looked at me and the trucks and our car.

"Whose moving in next door?" He asked. He doesn't recognize me, this is brilliant. I walked inside the house after hearing his mum reply. She doesn't know we are coming back either. Ha.

I walked into my room with one of my boxes in my hand. It's a three floored house. So is Danny's. There are four bedrooms downstairs and my bedroom is massive because it's in the loft. The whole loft space is my bedroom, same with Danny's house.

This bedroom is four times the size of my bedroom back in Springsville. I smiled. I started to bring up more boxes. When I had the last box up in my room I noticed that dad had brought up my wardrobe. I started putting my clothes in it.

It was getting quite hot in my room so I opened the window. Danny had his window open too.

I put my music on.  Wild thoughts was on by Rhianna. Mom and Dad can't hear it from the loft which is good because they hate some of my music. Some they sing along to but others they dont or cant. I have a very large music range.

"Can you shut up please?" he said. It made me jump. "I didn't mean to startle you" he said. "Or maybe I did." he added.

"So why are you back?" He asked. "No friends in the other town? Nobody like you?" He asked. "Because I don't" he added.

I turned around. "If you don't like me, then why are you talking to me?" I asked with a smirk on my face. I went to the window and was about to close it before I had another thought. "And I don't see why you hate me, I haven't done anything" I said. I closed the window, smirked and flung the curtains closed.

I continued to unpack after turning my music up a little louder and smirking.

*Dannys P.O.V.*

I can't believe she's back. The same girl that I used to play with. I remember the look on her face when she told me she was moving. I also remember the look on her face when I walked away. I don't know why I walked away. I just couldn't talk to her.

She broke me. Then and there.

My heart was broken.

She was leaving.

She called and texted but I didn't reply. I just couldn't bare to talk to her.

I wanted too, but I hated her so badly. She just got up and left.

It's amazing how quickly someone can just do that. She didn't know it but I watched her pack up. She was always crying. I noticed how she always texted me then kept checking her phone.

She came round and I told my mum to send her away. I didn't want to see her. I loved her. Then she left.

I can't believe that when she came back I couldn't recognize her. I just saw her as new material. Someone I hadn't dated yet. But them I realized it was her and I had to speak to her. I just did. Even though I was a little horrible, I still talked to her, heard her sweet voice. Her little smirk.

I didn't realize how much she's changed. She's become more confident. She's completely changed. She's wearing more revealing clothes too. That little summer dress and boots looks perfect on her. 

She's got rid of her braces, no more glasses either. Not only did Sydney betray me, she changed, I've lost her.

Little Sydney is gone, welcome older Sydney.
