Ok. So. Yea. Um. I have been crying for the past week. I'm officially done with high school. I graduated last Thursday. I was so excited, the reality hit me. No more high school. It's done. It's over. I didn't realize how much I was truly going to miss that place. But it's been a week. I've been spending time with my sisters. Monica went home today. I told her I'll call her before I leave tomorrow. Oh yea, I'm leaving for Duke tomorrow. I'm still packing up my stuff but I am on a break with Fernanda. We're in front of the garage. Messing around making some weird ass videos on that app that everyone has. (Video above) ⬆⬆
We just finished making a video and we're laughing our asses off.
"Ali." She's says after we quiet down.
"Yea? " I look at her.
"Why are you leaving early? " I frown.
"Because I want ti get settled in. If you miss me too much, just call and if Youdesperetly miss me, you can fly down and see me. Sí. " I ask.
"Sí."
"Wanna make some more videos? "
"Yes."
"I still can't believe your leaving for North Carolina tomorrow. "
"I'll be back. I don't know how often but I'll be back. " I smile.
"Come on. "
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm in NY room closing a box and taping it when Fernanda comes in.
"So u was watching some videos and I found this. " She hand me the phone. I look down at the screen and blush.
"Oh my god. Is Alejandra blushing? " I slap her shoulder.
"Get that away from me, I look terrible in that. I have to finish packing anyway. "
"Boring." She says and walks out. I live the box and grab another one. I start putting more of my stuff un ut. Then 5 minutes later. My phone rings. I look at it to see its my mom.
"Hello,. " I out it on speaker and start packing, again.
"Hey, I need you ti come down to the office. I want you to model some of my wedding dresses. "
"Now? "
"Yes. Be here in 20 minutes. "
"Ok." I grab my purse and head out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey, you're mom said to send you to the fifth floor. You modeling today? "
"Apparently." I say when i walk in to the building. The secretary, Lisa, has worked here since my mom started the business.
"What are you modeling today? " She says as she types something in the computer.
"Wedding dresses. "
"Ooh fun. She knows your here, you can go on up. "
"Thanks Lisa. "
"Your welcome dear. " I go and press the button on the elevator. I press the 5 and wait. Once the doors open I step out and into a empty floor with racks if clothes in one side and backdrops on the other. Mom was pulling some dresses and moving them. She carefully takes one off a maniquun.
"Hey mom. "
"Hey honey. Ready? "
"Sure."she takes the dress off of the maniquun and help me into it. I get situated and she ties and zips it up. She quickly has a stylist GIC my hair and put in a veil. After about a half hour we are done and ready to take some pictures.
" Come stand over here. "I do as said and move over ti the other side if the room. Mom fixes everything and steps back for the photographer ti take some photos.
" Awe ¡Estás tan hermosa!No puedo esperar hasta que tú y Blake casarse."(Hiney you look beautiful! I can't wait until you and Blake get married.) I look at her.
"¿Quién dice que nos vamos a casar?"(who said we're getting married?)
" Nadie ha dicho de ti.Ya lo sé."(no one has to say. I already know) I scoff.
"Whatever." I go ti change out of this dress. I model four more then I'm done. I get my stuff and walk out to my car. I start it and drive home.
When I get home I shut the car off and go inside.
"Hey dad. " I say when I enter.
"You dine packing? "
"No."
"Then go finish. " I run upstairs and set my bag down. I sit in my bed. All the memories I have of high school. My dad and sister. Just how much I've changed throughout these four years. I see my guitar. I haven't played that one in a while. I grab it and go sit in the living room.
"There's a place that I know
It's not pretty there and few have ever gone
If I show it to you now
Will it make you run away
Or will you stay
Even if it hurts
Even if I try to push you out
Will you return?
And remind me who I really am
Please remind me who I really am
Everybody's got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody's a picture perfect
But we're worth it
You know that we're worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?
Like a diamond
From black dust
It's hard to know
It can become
If you give up
So don't give up on me
Please remind me who I really am
Everybody's got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody's a picture perfect
But we're worth it
You know that we're worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?
Don't run away
Don't run away
Just tell me that you will stay
Promise me you will stay
Don't run away
Don't run away
Just promise me you will stay
Promise me you will stay
Will you love me? Ohh
Everybody's got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody's a picture perfect
But we're worth it
You know that we're worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?"
"Second thoughts? " Blake asks from the doorway. U turn.
"No, just remembering things. I kinda miss my old house. It had alit if memories. " I slightly chuckle.
"We6ll always have those memories. All we can do is make new ones. Then when we're 90, we can look back in all the fun times we've had. "
"I'm leaving at 8 tomorrow. "
"At night? " He looks at me warrior.
"Morning. We're driving. "
"Whose we? "
"Me and Dustin. He wants to drive me. It'll take a day and a half but I'm going to pay for his plane ticket back. "
"Then let's spend tonightogetheer. "
"Ok."
