Hey for some reason fanfiction wasn't letting me upload all of chapter four so I split in into two parts!
Finding A New You
Chapter Four:Part Two
Saturday Afternoon
"Hey sweetheart are you hungry?" Claire's mom asked her. It was almost 1:00 in the afternoon and Claire was barely getting up the reason was she spent the whole night chatting with Elli online.
Claire told her mom about her and Elli yesterday when her mom had come to pick her up and saw Claire standing outside with Elli and asked who he was.
"A little bit" she said. She sat down as she ate breakfast with her mom. It reminded of her when last year she lived with her mom. She really did miss her mom. She couldn't text her dad when he was at the store to buy tampons. That would just be gross and weird for both of them. Also she was sure if she asked him he would say no way.
Also with her mom she told her how to drive a boy crazy and how not to sound desperate. She loved when her mom told her about her past relationships and told Claire her mistakes.
"I'm going with Christy to the store want to come?' her mom asked. "I don't think I have that much energy to go with you and Christy shopping today" she laughed. Christy was her mom's best friend from high school and when those two shopped they shopped like crazy looking for the best deals. Claire thought that the saying shop until you drop came from when her mom and Christy shopped. Last year Claire brought one of her friends to go and when they got home they were so tired they fell asleep on the ground by the front door.
"Alright then I'll be back later then. Don't throw a party while I'm gone" she winked. "That was one time in eighth grade!" she shouted as her mom headed to the door. "And my I still can't find one of my right shoes" she laughed. "Bye mom!" Claire said as her mom left.
Claire sighed as she went upstairs to take a shower. She got dressed and blow dried her hair. She really didn't feel like staying home when it was so pretty and warm outside. She took a walk around the neighborhood when she saw Greenland High School. The school looked clean and well kept.
She did sort of miss it but she liked it at Apollo. She sighed it was November the semester ended in two months and it looked like her Dad was pleased with her behavior. She knew her Dad told her when the semester ended he would transfer her back to Greenland but she started having second thoughts.
She didn't want to leave Elli and none of her old friends had talked to her since she left.
Suddenly she heard footsteps behind her. Claire turned around quickly to see a familiar face.
"Claire is that you?" the familiar person said.
"Ben" she breathed out.
