Hiding the Cracks

Liz's POV

I storm out of the living room and slam my door. LONDON?! WHY ARE WE MOVING TO LONDON?! Are they trying to ruin my life! I pace around my room trying to calm down. After a while of calming down I sit on my bed. I stare at the ceiling and try to think of the positives of moving to England. Lets see: No one will pity me, I can change myself, HOT BRITISH GUYS! James always wanted to go to England. I feel tears prick my eyes as I force myself not to cry. I look back on everything and remember Deni's note. I open my special box and take it out. I then read over one of the last pieces of her I have.

Dear Lizzy,
I'm sorry I am leaving you like this. I just can't take anymore of the beatings. I miss my mom and now I will be able to be with her. I don't want you dwelling on me! You have to live your life and do the things that I couldn't do. I know we've been through some fucked up stuff but I want you to try and flip it all around. I know how smart you are and you aren't as bad as people make you out to be. You need to stop wasting your life partying because its not going to get you anywhere but in trouble. There are bad people that go to those things. I want you to promise me that when the time is right you will change your ways and be the smart beautiful girl I know you to be. Sorry if this sounds harsh but I only say it because I love you! you the greatest friend I have ever had. Change your actions but not your personality. I love you and I will always be watching over you!

Take care kid!
-Deni

As I trace over her beautiful signature I notice the hot tears running down my face. I wipe my tears then decide that its time for a change and this time its going to be the right one! With that last thought I fall into a deep sleep. I wake up looking at the clock next to my bed. It's 9 pm. I slept for 3 hours. I actually didn't wake up in sweat and tears like the usual. I had flashbacks of good memories with Deni. I notice a smell that I haven't smelled in a long time. It was the smell of James' favorite dinner. I walk out into the dining area to find my mom, brother, and dad getting ready to eat. I sit down at the table and wait for my parents to set everything down. I start to plate up my food and eating. There was a silence throughout the air. other than the sounds of forks and knives hitting the plate, no one was talking. I was the first to speak up. "So when do we leave?" I asked without looking at them. "We leave on Friday. the movers will be here on Wednesday." I nod my head acknowledging what she had said. After I finish my meal I go back to my room and start packing my things since the movers come in 3 days. After about 2 hours of packing I go to sleep and ready myself for school the next day.
