Charli's Daughter (a high school AU)

From New York to L.A.

  "Charlotte can you come help with the boxes?" My mom says as she picks up two boxes from the living room. 

  I walk downstairs and grab three boxes that are labeled "Char's room decorations" and walk back up to put them down in my room. Once I sat them down in my room I looked out the window. "It's beautiful here isn't it?" Mom says while she walks into my room.

  She walks up to me and then said "I used to live in LA once until I saw that I had way more opportunities in New York. That and I wanted to get away from all the people here."

  "Including my father?" I questioned while still looking out of the window. 

  "Yes, including your father as well." She said while straightening up my room.

  I had always wondered why my mom never talked about my father that much. Some people have told me rumors around why they didn't stay together but I never really listened to them. The most ridiculous out of the rumors that I had been told was that Chase had cheated on my mother with Addison Rae my mom's old ex-friend. She apparently had a child with him as well. Which could NOT have been true cause I bet everybody would talk about it and do you know how hard it would be to hide a whole CHILD. Like where would they put them? The closet? Although, I had never actually checked whether or not they actually had one. I was too scared too..."Well, I just wanted to see how you were doing with unpacking up here. We only have a few boxes to unpack left, and then we'll be done with most of the house." she says before giving me a thumbs up and then leaving the room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After unpacking ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

  "Well now that we're done with unpacking, do you want to go out and eat somewhere?" Mom says after putting the last piece of decor onto the mantle of the fireplace. 

  "Sure, let me just go up and get my phone," I say before I run up the stairs. 

  Once I got to my room I took a second to admire the view from my room then quickly got my phone and once again headed back downstairs. I was wondering if after we get food we could look around the town. I've never really been to LA before except for that one time my mom had to go here with me for a brand deal. I was only 6 then so I don't really remember anything. "Alright, now that you're here I want to ask you something. There's a really good cafe place down the street that we could go to. Do you want to go there or somewhere else?" She questioned while picking up her purse and walking towards the door.

  "We can go to the cafe. I don't really care where we go I just want food." I answered her whilst closing the door behind me.

  Once we got to the cafe we were greeted by a server named Ethan who seemed about my age. After we got our drinks and had gotten seated we started talking. 

  "How do you think your first day of your new school is going to go? When we met your teachers yesterday I thought they were nice," she said before taking a sip of her drink.

  "I think it'll go well. I don't know about people knowing that you're my mother though. People will probably stare at me or try to avoid me if they know you're my mom." I admitted to her.

  It's nothing against my mom it's just I don't know how well people will take it if I say that my mom was the most popular person on Tiktok ever. Once we ate our food and paid I suggested that we could go out around the town. We hit a few shops and got some new clothes and stuff for school. When we got back it was already 10 o'clock and time to go to bed. I took a shower and headed to bed.
