A/N: Thanks for all the very kind reviews for last chapter, I couldn't believe that the first chapter went so well especially since I'm not a very good author, I loved every single one of them, here's the second chapter, enjoy! :)

Shout outs for reviewing last chapter, thank you so much for 16 reviews, I was not excepting that, it's double what I excepted, I don't think I've ever gotten 16 reviews for a first chapter in a story so thank you so much!

PS: Sorry if this chapter is quite boring, I promise starting from next chapter things will get more interesting. :) (Also some of my guest reviews take FOREVER to appear on fanfiction, call me crazy but that's what I've been seeing for my story).

Ater getting the text my mum had just sent me, so many thoughts went around and around my head that I could hardly concentrate in one thing, what if my mum was announcing for another baby? Or what if she was fired from her job? Or it might be good, she might have gotten a promotion. Gah! I don't know.

I began walking outside the school, for once without Riley.

"Maya, why didn't you wait for me? Aren't we going to the subway together?" Riley asks me.

"Yeah, of course," I reply, making a small grin to show her I was fine so she wouldn't ask any questions.

I didn't like to talk about my mum to anyone, not even Riley, it's just too depressing for me, I usually don't want to talk really, I want to express how I feel by drawing.

Riley and I walk together to the subway, as usual, Riley's stop is first even though we live on the same building, my mum had sent another message right after the first one saying to meet her at the shop she works at and not at home.

"Bye Maya, are you sure you don't want to do your homework with me?" Riley asks.

I nod,"Yeah, really it's fine."

We wave goodbye and I wait for my stop which is about 1 minute away.

Time goes quickly and when the subway doors open, I walk out and go to the shop my mum works at.

I try to spot a blonde girl who's hair is tied up in a ponytail, who is obviously my mum. I find my mum quite quickly and walk up to her.

"Hey Maya!" my mum greets, hugging me.

I felt really weird the moment she hugged me, it was a horrible hug, her hands were all cold and weak.

"Hi mum," I mumble, still angry at what she did to me just yesterday.

"Brighten up the mood. I have exciting news!" my mum exclaims, grinning cheerfully at me.

I raise an eyebrow.

"And what is the "exciting" news?" I ask.

"You're having a new father and to top it all off we're moving!" my mum shouts, squealing happily.

"What?! I don't want to move and I don't want a father!" I cry, trying to hold back the tears in my eyes.

"You've always wanted to know who your father was, you can now!" my mum replies, one hand on my shoulder, the other one by her side.

"Since when do you care about what I want?" I ask rudely and then I walk out of the store.

I can't believe I'm moving, how am I suppose to tell Riley, for once I can't speak at all, for once I'm not confident at all, for once I feel like hiding in a little hole and never coming out of it.

I walk back to my mum's apartment and put my school bag on the ground, as usual I wouldn't do my homework but this time, I actually did because well I didn't know what else to do.

After an hour, Riley calls me.

"Hey Maya, what are you up to?"

"Oh just doing homework."

"Seriously? Maya Hart is doing homework? Why?"

"I don't know, just bored."

"Then that was a waste of me doing extra homework, anyway, do you want to hang out today?"

I think about it carefully as much as I didn't want to decline to Riley, I was horrible at secrets and if we hung out for the whole day, I wouldn't be able to hold the thing about me moving and I'd suddenly blurt it out. However it's a chance I will take, especially since I have been so mean to Riley today.

"Sure why not? I'll meet you at your apartment."

I walk upstairs to Riley's apartment and knock on the door.

Riley didn't open it, her mother did.

"Hello Maya, Riley's just in her bedroom, she'll be in the living room in a moment so just take a seat on the couch while you're waiting," Riley's mother explained.

I nod and walk in and sit down at one of the couches.

Riley's dad comes running in.

"I heard the news! Maya, you did your homework?!" he exclaims.

"Yeah...," I reply awkwardly.

"A miracle has happened! I am so proud of you!" Riley's dad responds.

He runs up to me and gives me a hug, I feel really awkward but I like that he cares about me. I really don't need a father, I have Riley's dad.

After 2 minutes, Riley walks in.

"Hey Maya, so sorry I was taking so long, was just proof reading my homework, do you want to head to the park because I would love to go there?" Riley asks.

I gulp, the park is right next to where my mum works at, so I'd keep thinking about the news and I'd blurt it out. However, since Riley wants to go and has always been there for me, I'll take another risk for her.

"Sure," I respond.

We walk together to the park and I try not to make eye contact with my mum since I could see her so clearly in the shop.

"Is something wrong Maya?" Riley asks me.

"No...Of course not!" I assure.

"You're acting really weird lately," Riley continues.

"Trust me it's nothing," I lie.

That's it, I can't lie to her like this, she's my best friend, I have to tell her that I'm moving.

"But I have something to say, could we sit on the bench?" I ask.

"Of course, what is it?" Riley responds.

We sit at the wooden bench, it was ugly brown and incredibly dusty. Behind it was a garbage bin so the smell of the bench was disgusting and caused such a stench, so many people sat on that bench before Riley and I, I could nearly smell the people's scent that had just sat before us, about 5 minutes ago.

I find it hard to tell her what I wanted to announce but I end up mouthing the words.

"Maya, speak!" Riley instructs.

"Uh...Where do I start? Umm yeah I'm having a father and I'm going to another place," I mumble, she doesn't hear a word I say because I'm just mumbling softly.

"Maya, speak s-l-o-w-l-y," Riley replies.

"I...am...m-," I respond.

"Not that slow," Riley interrupts, her hand on my shoulder, her eyes looking at me.

"Fine, I'm moving," I explain.

A/N: So hope you liked it! I know this chapter (and the other chapter) wasn't very long so if you want you can chose from these two options, either you want me to make my chapters longer (which are once a week updates) OR I update twice a week with the same length, though I prefer the first one so I have more time to work on chapters and proof read them and make them perfect. :) so tell me in the reviews or PM me! :) I'd love to hear all of your opinions!

See you all next time! Can we hit 24 reviews with this? :)
