Hayden Matthews loved her old school in Georgia. She was popular, everyone loved her, she was the captain of the lacrosse and soccer teams at her school, she had amazing friends and grades. Everything for her was perfect. But that all changed the day she found out she was moving.

The day was perfect for Hayden. It was mid-April, with only a month or so left in school. The formal for the 9th graders was on Friday, her long-time crush Brian,star of the school football team, had just asked her on a date and to the dance, and the lacrosse team had won their game and was going to the state championships.She felt like nothing could bring her down that daybut boy was she wrong.

She had just gotten home from her lacrosse team's victory dinner and was in an amazing mood.
Mom. Dad. I'm just going upstairs to take a shower okay? Hayden called.
Can you wait a few minutes honey? We really need to talk to you about something. Haydens mom said. Why don't you come into the living room and sit down with us.
Hayden walked into the living room, worrying more ever second.
What's going on? she asked as soon as she sat down.You guys are really freaking me out. Are you getting a divorce or something? Did someone die?
No Hayden. We love each other very much and we aren't getting a divorce. And no, no one died. We have two different things to tell you. her mom said.
Fire away! Tell me already! Hayden was starting to get very impatient.
Okay Okay. Hayden's dad said with a laugh. Well the most important news first. Were going to have a baby. Your mom just found out yesterday.
OH MY GOSH! MOM THATS AWESOME! I have always wanted a little brother or sister! AH THIS IS AMAZING! I'm so excited! Hayden jumped up and down and ran to hug her mom and dad.
Were so happy that you're happy about this! It makes all of this a whole lot easier. Her mom said.Okay honey. We still have one more thing to tell you so sit down. Her mom waited until Hayden had sat down to tell her the news.
Hayden honey, your dad got promoted.
Dad that's awesome! Hayden said happily.
Yes it is awesome honey. But there is one thing that has to happen. We have to move.
Well it's fine with me as long as I am still going to the same school. Hayden said, oblivious to the fact that her parents meant outside the state. Even outside the country.
No honey. You aren't going to be going to the same school. Were moving to Toronto. That's in Canada. Hayden's mom said.
Hayden sat there in silence. All the happiness of baby news drained out of her.
When do we have to move? Hayden asked.
Well, your father and I are going up there in a few days to look at houses. Once we buy one, he is going to go stay in it while you and me stay here and pack up stuff. We can stay until September, which is when you start school there. So you have the whole rest of the school year and summer to be with your friends. Oh Hayden, we know this is hard on you now, but it'll all turn out fine. Everything is going to be better up there with your dad's promotion. We can still come down here once in a while, and during holidays your friends can come up and visit us. Hayden? Her mother finished.

Hayden couldn't say a word. She just sat there as tears started to stream down her face.
Oh Hayden, her mom reached for her.
Hayden resisted, and ran up to her room, where to tears really started.
