"Mom! That's SO not the point!" I flew up the steps, taking them 3 at a time, into my room slamming the door with as much force as my little 90 pound body could manage. i can't believe she would blow up like that! and she didn't even want to hear what i had to say! that's so unfair! "Uhhhhh!" I jumped onto my bed and grabbed a pillow to scream into. "Alexzandria Paytah Shaw! Get your behind down here right now before i paint it black and blue!" I rolled my eyes and glared at my door refusing to move. "Mom i think she's a little too old for a spanking." my little "angel" brother George commented on yet another one of me and my mother's fights. Smart ass! "George Richard Shaw! This does not concern you!" Nice mom, maybe you should yell at the goldfish, too! "Yeah, shut up George!" I throw my pillow at the wall that stands between our rooms.

"Alexzandria! front and center! NOW!" I grabbed another pillow of my bed and screamed into it before rolling off my bed and loudly yanking open my door. I stomped down the stairs to find my mother standing few feet away from the bottom of the steps, pointing in font of herself. I rolled my eyes before planted my feet at the bottom of the staircase, refusing to follow her directions. "I'm not a fucking five year old! Alex, not Alexzandria."

My mother rolled her eyes at my last comment before she spoke. "We were not done talking! I-" "Talking? Don't you mean yelling at me?" questioned her. She narrowed her eyes at me before continuing her rant "No, now as I was saying before. What yo did to that girl-" I stopped her before she could finish. "What I did to that girl? What I did to her? What about what she did to me?! HUH!?!" "You pushed her down the stairs!" "Two stairs! She punched me my fucking face! I'm not just going to take the fucking shit!" "You watch your mouth when you're speaking to me young lady!" I rolled my eyes at her and chuckled. The glare on her face disappeared only to be replaced by a sly smile. My smirk quickly turned into an annoyed and slightly confused scowl. I stayed silent, waiting for her to speak again. "Instead of punishing you by taking things away, I'm going to do something else." Why the hell would you punish me for self-defense?! Stupid dumb ass bitch!

She held up her finger, signaling me to wait right were I was. She walked to her door and slide into her room. I rolled my eyes for felt like the millionth time today and walked over to the couch. I picked the remote up as I sank further into the sofa and turned the t.v. on to MTV. "I'm counting to 20 then leaving!" I warned her. 1....2......5.......9.....12......19....- my thoughts were cut short as she glided back into the room with an envelope in her hands still wearing that dumb as smirk. damn! i should have counted by 5s or 10s. She walked over to me still fucking smiling and stood in front of the t.v. I growled and turned the t.v. off, hopping that I play along the sooner she'll be done with this. She cleared her throat and began. "I've been thinking this over for awhile, and now I know my answer."

She held the envelope with a smile and nodded her head towards it.I rolled my eyes, grabbing it from her, and opened it. I gave her a confused look as i pulled out a single, first-class ticket to Washington. "What the fuck is in Washington and why the hell is there only one ticket?" I asked calmly. What? Is she so stupid that she forgot to get one for her? and...wait...she's not planning on going. but did she plan on me going? "Your father's in Washington." her smile faltered little. "No, he's in South Caro-" I paused mid-sentence, realizing the true meaning of her statement. "That's my punishment?! You're sending me to live with him!! I can't believe you! It was one stupid little fight!" I threw the ticket down onto the coffee table and crossed my arms over my chest stubbornly and glared at the wall above her head.

"It's not just that one fight, but the back take to the teachers, the superglue on the door nobs, spray painting the gym doors, and how about the electric razor?!" I chuckled as I remembered when I had brought the electric razor to school, at first, it was just so I could give max a haircut. But then that bitch just had to get on my nerves, so her braid ust had to pay the price. Although it was kinda fun running around the classroom, giving people bald spots when the sub wasn't in the room. so much fun! And now all of the fun and joy will be gone cause my mom's a bitch! Uhhhh!

My mother scowled at me and picked up the envelope and put the ticket back into it. "You're going to leave your father until you straighten out. You're going to go to school there and going to do what ever the hell else he tells you to do! Now get your ass upstairs and get you shit! You're leaving Friday!" I stared blankly at her for a moment. She was pointing to the stairs with one hand and holding to envelope out with the other. "But tomorrow's Wednesday!?!" "NOW!" I growled at her and screamed, snatching the ticket out of her hand and ran up the stairs to my room, slamming my door. I jumped onto my bed as something fell off the dresser beside the door.I lifted my head and saw that it was a picture of me and Brinda.

Damn! I have to leave all of my friends, my school, my life! wtf! oh my god! I'm in the middle of my sophomore year! And now she's making me move?! Start school in whole different place?! I want to graduate with all my friends in to years. I'm suppose to be Phoebus class of 2012, not someone random high school in WA that no one cares about. This is the worst year of my life! How could she do this to me, and I know my dad was a part of this somehow. There's got to be a way to get her back! I wish I could just shred- I stopped mid-thought and started smiling before my mom opened my door. "Don't even think about shredding the ticket, your father bought it, and he can get another one. all I have to do is call." And with that she was gone along with my smile. I hopped off my bed and snatched my phone of the dresser. I opened up the messages and started a new message:

i forward it to all my friends and grabbed the biggest suitcase i could find from the hall closet. I unzipped it and put it on my bed, and went to my bathroom to get my shampoo and conditioner, straightener, razor, hair products, and dropped them all into my green plastic toiletries bag. I was about to walk into my closet when it hit me. The emergency credit card! platinum! $5,000 max! well, it is going to be a lot colder in WA then it is in VA. And i might need a jacket. Or two and new pants, and shoes, and oh! sunglasses! Aw, i feel sorry for my mom's bank account. he he, not. I smiled as i grabbed my wallet and shoes before running down the stairs.

"Hey mom! What's going to be my new address. I want to tell some of my friends." I pulled out my phone and text the address to myself and started to walk towards the back door. "Where are you going?" "Jessica's she's got my favorite jacket!" I slammed the door clo
