Rebellious Love
SS by Samantha D

Britney's POV

         I just don't understand how my life completely change in so little time...I mean, I thought we were so happy as a family but...they faked it and even though they say "No" to me it feels like that. Now that my parents are finally divorced, I have this burden that I want to release but don't know how. My Mom wants to move and I don't want too...I want everything the way it was before. My life is here and this is where I belong. I don't know why my Mom wants to move to New York...I mean out of all New York! That's like a huge dramatic change that I will have to make and no one seems to mind what I think! My dad seems to have no say and I never get to see him anymore. My world no longer has sense. I'm about to lose my friends and everything that I have here. I hate everything that has happened and oh God I hate my parents! I'm only 16, I just want to die, and what's worse is that I can't do anything to change their minds and I just have to go but "No, Bryan gets to stay!" I just need one more year and I'm done with High School but my Mom still wants to move. "Brit, finish packing...I don't hear anything, now move it!" my mother screams, "I am!" A knock interrupts me from putting the final piece of clothing in my fourth and final suitcase "Mom I'm done-" a smile is evident by now "Hey LL!" God how I love my cousin but my thoughts betrayed me as I know that I will not see her no more. "Hey Brit" sadness is visible not only in her eyes but her voice and I just can't do this "Hey I'm done and I have to get going but..." but before I can say anything else she hugs me tightly and I begin to cry. My Mom soon comes and tells us that we have to go. I turn to look at LL and we say our goodbyes. As soon as I come out of my house I see all of my friends standing with gifts and flowers in hand. I thank each and everyone for everything and then I see Reg; even though we broke up, we remain friends after all of the drama that went around. He hugs me and tells me that he'll visit me and that everything we'll be fine...somehow I want to believe him. As I leave I make a promise to myself and that is to never open up to people because sooner or later they leave and you end up hurting them and yourself. "Britney I'm sorry baby but it will all be ok you just wait and see" my Mom tries to reassure me and all I can say is "I don't think so but whatever" she just looks at me as though expecting an apology but I just turned around and put on my headphones. My Mom has officially ruined my life and I will ruin hers. A smile spreads across my face maybe if I'm all bad we'll just have to come back. "Here I come, New York" I whisper.
