AN: Hi everyone! To those of you who have already been reading, I'm just updating this prologue with an author's note. So, nothings been changed, just me rambling at the beginning.
This is my very first fanfic. I got the courage to put this story up after thinking about it forever. Like the summary says, this story follows the story of Isa, or Bella. She's been through quite a bit in her life. Her mother is emotional and has taken up the hobby of running around the country and living somewhere new ever since Bella was 8 years old. As you read, you'll get the back story to all that, but Bella has inherited this trait from her mom and has been running as well, either from herself or others. Which has resulted in her changing her name from time to time.
The prologue is just insight into how Isa thinks about the world in general. After the prologue, the story picks up in Isa's present day.
I hope you enjoy it!

PROLOGUE
No one ever tells you life won't be as easy as it is when you're young. When your parents take care of the things you don't even think of; when the lights never go out, and when the phone is always on when you need to gossip about what happened at school that day, or when you can turn the shower water on as hot as it can get until it turns cold. No one really prepares you for the negative life occurrences like death, depression, and betrayal. No one seems to make it clear that relationships are trials that don't always reach a happily ever after with 2.5 kids and a white picket fence. Well, maybe everyone is still hoping for that one true love thing to be…well…true!
Still, life isn't joy rides, pep rallies, and make out sessions forever. Adulthood or Reality is what they call it. Childhood is a dream land where the only concerns are finding the next thing that makes you happy. Reality is…well…reality, is crap.
