Thanks soo much for all the nice reviews. They really mean alot :)

Here's chapter 14. Please read and review (:

The week so far had gone had gone pretty fast. It was now Friday and Holly still didn't know about Matthew leaving. He wanted to tell her but couldn't. He knew he would have to tell her sooner or later. He had decided that he was going to get her to come round to his tonight and then he would tell her. His mum had said this morning that he needed to hurry up and tell her as she would have to inform the school tonight.

Next class was science with Mr Mead. Holly was already sat down when Matthew came in. He sat down beside her. When the lesson started Matthew took a deep breath and began,

"So what you doing tonight?" he asked.

"Nothing, why?" she said.

"Do you wanna come round to mine and we can get a take-away and watch a film."

"Yeah, sounds good."

"Ok, great. We can go straight after school."

Holly smiled.

The end of day bell sounded and floods of kids fled the grounds of Waterloo Road. Matthew and Holly walked hand in hand out of the gate and walked to his house. They had stopped at the shop on the way back to get some sweets and chocolate. They got to the house and put the stuff in the kitchen. They got a take-away menu from the cupboard and rang for a pizza. About half and hour later the pizza arrived. They put the film on and ate the pizza. They had chosen to watch Paranormal Activity.

Here we go, he thought.

I have to do this.

"Holly can I talk to you about something?"

"Yeah sure, what is it?"

"You know the other night when I had to go home early?"

"Yeah,"

"Well my mum told me something and well…" he paused. He was trying to think what to say next.

"Come on Matthew spit it out!"

"Ok, were moving to Australia."

Everything went silent.

"What?" Holly said, very confused.

He took hold of her hands.

"I'm moving to Australia. My dad has been offered a better job there."

"When do you go," she said trying to hold back the tears.

"Tuesday. Today was my last day in school."

"Well, you've not started packing or anything!"

"I know, we are packing up this weekend and then we are gone,"

"What you can't go, what about us?"

Tears came pouring down her face.

"I don't know,"

She got up and ran out the room. He ran after her.

"Holly, please."

She didn't say anything. She just ran off. She ran down the road and all the way home. She left her self in. Rachel and Adam heard her and came into the hall. They saw she was upset.

"Whats wrong sweetie?" Rachel asked.

Holly ran into her mums arms. Rachel looked over Holly's shoulder at Adam. Rachel looked at him.

"What's up with her?" Adam mouthed to Rachel.

Rachel shrugged her shoulders slightly. She guided Holly through to the living room and sat her down.

"Holly, what's wrong?" Rachel said softly.

"It's Matthew. He's moving to Australia!"

Rachel hugged Holly tighter. She knew how much she loved him.

"Come on lets get you upstairs yeah." Rachel said.

Holly nodded. Rachel took her upstairs. She sat her down on the bed and tucked her in. Rachel kissed the top of her head.

"Night sweetheart,"

Rachel left and came down. Adam met her at the bottom of the stairs with a big glass of wine. Rachel smiled.

"You read my mind!" she said taking the glass off him.

They went into the living room and cuddled up together on the couch. Rachel buried her head in his chest.

"Don't worry Rach, she will be fine." Adam said reassuringly.

"Adam she really loved him,"

"I know but she's a tough kid, she will get through it and were here."

Rachel sighed.

"You wanna go up?" Adam asked.

"Yeah, come on."

They locked up and went to bed.

That night Rachel couldn't sleep. She was so worried about Holly. She was tossing and turning but she still couldn't sleep. Adam felt her tossing and turning in his arms. He woke up.

"Rach what's up?" he said sleepily.

"I can't sleep, I'm worried about Holly."

He began stroking her hair.

"Just try and forget it for now and we will sort it tomorrow. Yeah?"

"Yeah, thanks Adam."

She snuggled up in his arms and eventually fell asleep. He had held her tight in his arms and kept stroking her hair until she drifted off.

The weekend went pretty slow. Holly stayed locked in her room on her computer. She hadn't eaten much and Rachel being her usual self was starting to worry about her daughter. Adam kept reassuring her but Rachel couldn't help but worry. It was late afternoon when Rachel went up to Holly's room. She knocked on the door. There was no reply so she just went in. She found Holly sat on her bed on her laptop with her earphones in. She hadn't even acknowledged Rachel's presence. Rachel sat down on the end of the bed. Holly took one of her earphones out.

"How are you doing?" Rachel asked.

"Fine," Holly said.

Rachel knew her daughter well and could tell when she was lying. She decided not to push her.

"Ok, well I'm always here if you ever need to talk."

"Yeah, ok." Holly said as she put her earphone back in.

Rachel sighed and left the room. She went down and sat with Adam. She snuggled up to him on the sofa. He kissed the top of her head. Holly remained in her room the rest of the day. She didn't come down for tea. Rachel had taken her a bowl of her favourite macaroni up but she didn't touch it. Later that night Rachel and Adam were cuddled up in bed together. Rachel couldn't sleep. She was worrying about Holly. It wasn't like her to be so anti-social and not eat anything. Rachel lied awake for ages staring into space. She eventually drifted off when it came to the early hours of the morning.
