Millie's POV

"BOARDING SCHOOL?" I scream.

"Millie keep it down, Ava is sleeping!" My mom says. "Yes, boarding school. You've came home drunk too many times, and then you go and kiss Jacob. You have been rebeling from me since you were like 14. Now you are 17 and you still can't control yourself, so yes. Boarding school."

"MOM YOU CAN'T JUST SEND ME TO BOARDING SCHOOL BECAUSE I COME HOME DRUNK A FEW TIMES!" I yell, forgetting about Ava.

"I think I can! I'm your mom." She plops my suitcase in front of me. "Here. Pack your bag. This is me telling, not asking. You leave in two days."

What the heck?! Boarding school? How could she do this to me? Sure, I have come home drunk a few times, but it was on accident. I shouldn't be sent to boarding school. Plus, only two days to say goodbye to my best friends? I break down crying, and fall onto my bed, tears running down the sides of my face. I don't even bother to wipe them away. I pull out my phone and text mystery boy again.

Girl: so my life just got even worse!

Boy: what happened now?

Girl: my mom came into my room and told me that because ive been so "irresponsible" lately, im going to boarding school

Boy: oof. Im sorry. Although, its really not that bad as long as you get a good roommate.

Girl: i wish i were coming to where you live so i could be your roomate lol

Boy: thats funny because i actually am getting a new roomate soon.

Girl: dude i wish

Boy: me too... im a bit nervous to see who it is. Hopefully it's not someone too bad.

Girl: right?!

Boy: i have to go to bed. Gn :)

Girl: gn, gonna go pack :p

Okay, so I guess I have to pack now... This is the worst!

I turn on my TV and turn on my favorite show "Grey's Anatomy." Once I finish packing, it's about 2am. I get into bed and fall asleep.

I wake up at 11am and texted all of my friends in a group chat.

Mills: guys can we meet at the park in like 20 minutes? I need to talk to you guys, it's super important

Saids: sure, is everything ok?

Caleb: of course

Mills: bring tissues

Saids: are you ok mills?

Mills: just go to the park

Caleb: Ok

I get dressed into a maroon sweater and some blue ripped jeans. Then I slip on some boots and walk to the park.

When I get there, Caleb and Sadie are already there, talking. Caleb's arm is around Sadie. Gosh, I wish that could be me and mystery boy. If he was here, all my problems would be gone.

"Hey guys." I say.

"Hey, Mills. What's wrong?" Caleb asks, Sadie nodding me to keep going.

"Why would you assume something is wrong?" I ask. Sadie holds up the box of tissues waving them in my face. "Oh..."

"So what's up?" Sadie asks.

"Okay, please don't freak out." I say, knowing they're gonna freak out. These two are my best friends.
