Forever Is a Long Time.. I woke up in a bed I haven't slept

Forever Is a Long Time..
I woke up in a bed I haven't slept in, in nearly a month. It was scary at first because I didn't realize where I was, but then I remembered I left my sister to come back to Miami. I slowly got out of bed and made my way to my closet. My mom wasn't home, I couldn't hear the coffee brewing in the kitchen. I figured she went out somewhere, but I'm not sure where. I shrugged and pulled out a romper with a oversized white cardigan and some brown gladiators. I got dressed, did my make-up which consisted of just some powder, eyeliner, and mascara, and I just scrunched my hair into my perfect beachy waves, and softly toutched my anchor necklace that lays on my neck perfectly. My father gave me this just about a year ago when he was diagnosed with cancer. I wear it everyday because it has always reminded me of him and I feel safe where ever I go because I know he is always with me. I clumped down the stairs and made myself a bowl of cereal and turned on the news. 6:57. The sun was still rising, I took a peak out the window onto the beach right outside of my house. Beautiful. I missed it here, a lot.
I finished my cereal and picked up my bag for school. I started to walk towards my car, but I got a text from my friend Mia

Mia: Need a ride?! I'm heading your wayy

I really was fine driving but I haven't seen Mia in a while so I was excited when I saw her name light up on my screen.

Me: Yeah sure! I haven't seen you in forever girly(:
Mia: OMG I know! You disappeared to Rhode Island over the summer! I bet you've changed so much!

Ohh right, I forgot to tell Mia about my 'change' I doubt she will even recognize me. At this point, I really didn't care. I just didn't want to see everyone at school today stare at me and whisper and says things like 'oh my gosh is that really Lucy?' I'm just not in the mood. I didn't know what to say to Mia so I just said..

Me: You'll be surprised aha
 
She replied in a heartbeat.

Mia: Turning onto your street now(: I'll honk!

Me: Haha okay, I'll run out!

I quickly ran inside and got some money for lunch today, and my student ID. I took a glance at what I looked like last year and threw it in my bag with discust. All of a sudden I heard a horn beep and stormed out of the house grabbing my keys.
