Bella Deangio

My name is Isabella DeAngio and this is my story.

Monday August 27th

Senior year starts in two days. I am torn between the need to finish high school and being scared to move on with my life. I've just finished packing all of my stuff. I'm so glad I don't have to do this on my own. If not for Max I wouldn't be able to do this. I still can't believe they are shipping me off to boarding school...

As Bella pondered what to write next about her best friend, she could hear her parents downstairs. They were at it again. Apparently there were mixed feelings about her leaving. She knew that her younger brother Ty was the most affected by the change. As though on cue, her adorable brother appeared in the doorway.

"So you're really leaving me all alone with them?"

"You know I would rather stay here, with you. Continue trying to take over the world." said Bella mischievously.

"Yeah, I guess. Promise to email me like a gazillion times a day?" Ty said flinging his arms out for emphasis.

"I promise. You know I'm going to miss you so much. Are you sure you don't want to sneak into my closet and keep me company? I promise I will try to sneak you food at least twice a day." teased Bella.

...The end of my life has officially started. I'm on my way to hell. Sitting next to Ty as he stares out the window at the passing outdoors, I have realized that I can't leave him. What are my parents thinking? I mean, I know that I should have the best education that I can get but cant they send Ty with me?...

"What are you thinking about Bella?" asked her mother.

"About how you are ruining your children's lives" Bella mumbled under her breath.

"What was that sweetie?" her mother asked turning around in her seat to face her daughter.

Isabella plastered an unbelievably fake smile on her face and looked her mom in the eye, "Nothing Mother."

Then she made sure to put a definite end to the conversation by turning her full attention

back to her journal. What she did not notice was the sad look on her mothers face.

...I guess a part of me understands what she is trying to do. After everything that's happened in the past month, maybe it will be nice to start again fresh. Hopefully no one will know about the accident here. I know it wasn't my fault. They all told me I couldn't have done anything to save him. I still wonder why I am here and not him though. It is so hard to miss someone as much as I miss him. I will remember that day for the rest of my life...

His name was Adrian. He was the most wonderful boyfriend I could have ever dreamed of. It all happened on our 9 month anniversary. I knew I should not have told him while I was
