I walked quickly upstairs from the basement, carrying a load of laundry into my parents bedroom. They said school was gonna be starting soon-yeah, I already knew that. But then they gave me an option to either go to normal school-regular friends that know me, teachers from past school years, and no one that gets my fanfics.
Or...go to Internet School. Friends I barely know, new teachers, and everyone that understands my fanfics. I sat and waited for them to say 'We were kidding!' or 'April Fools!' as the holiday was just around the corner. But they never did. They meant it?!
"Okay, seriously though-" I heard my friend Kelly-one of my 'in real life' friends start. "-why would you want to go be with people you barely know? I mean, come on Amanda-"
"Die. I've told you, Kel. I respond to Die and that's it." I quipped, and sighed. "Look, I don't see the problem with it. It would be nice to hang out with people that understand me!" I threw the clothes on the bed, and turned to her.
"I'm not trying to crush your dreams here, 'Die'. But I think you should stray away from this site. It's like any other place on the internet-if you get lost, you're screwed over for the rest of the time you're there." she crossed her arms defensively, and I sighed with annoyance.
"You haven't even read my fanfics. Why? Because I haven't showed them to ANYONE else besides Fall and DT7."
"Who?" she responded, confused. "'Fall' and 'DT7'? Who are these people?!"
"Fernando and Edward..." Fernando-my boyfriend and Edward-our lifetime friend from back in elementary. "Their YouTube names."
"They have fake names! Let alone YouTube, they use them on other sites too! And you!" She pointed to me. "Your name is 'Amandie'!"
"007...your point?" I answered.
"You shouldn't have a false identity!" She shouted at me again. "It's unhealthy!"
"No it's not. I don't want people calling me by my real name. That's why I use Amandie as my false name. They call me Die." I argued.
"It's not good, Amanda-"
"AMANDIE007. How many times must I repeat it?!"
"Many, because I don't care! It's not good to be called someone you aren't."
"GAH! KEL! Even Fall-" I started.
"Fernando! That's his name! Real name!" Kelly screamed.
"GAH STOP IT THIS IS SO STUPID." I walked forward into the wall, and did a face-wall motion. I then repeatedly hit my head on the wall, trying to calm myself down. "Look..." I turned to her, leaning against the Salmon-Pink walls. "I don't care...I honestly have no choice, as well. I either go to HS, or to the Internet School! I wanna go to both, but...I mean, come on. I can't!"
"Obviously you can't. That's why you should go to a school where your Brother and Sister went! They know the school, they could show you around." Kelly protested.
"Jonathan is at work all the time, and Megan lives in freaking Nevada..." I facepalmed, and sighed. Whilst doing this, a knock at the front door signaled Kelly's mum. "I'll see you around, okay?"
"Wait. Tell me where. Which damn place are you going." Kelly just about begged.
I stood up, and smiled. "You'll find out on the first day of school. Okay?" I then grinned, knowing that I wouldn't get her reaction until I see her later into the school year.
But I wouldn't even see her. The Internet School has dorms, so I'd be living with friends. Internet friends. People that understand me, understand my world outside of everyday life, understand what I write.
"Thanks for being vague, Amanda...see ya around." Kelly then left out the door, and I slipped down the wall into a heap of shakes.
"Dammit...how am I gonna handle this...how..." With head in hands, I fell asleep with my back against the wall and head held in my arms.
~~~
"Okay. So, I just-" I stuttered, looking about the room with confusion. "What am I supposed to do again?"
"Just sign the papers, honey." My mum called from the kitchen, me being in the dining room. "And then you'll be set."
"O...Kay? Sure. Right. Gotcha Mum." I smiled, and she looked at me from behind her glasses.
She always got annoyed with me when I went 'British' on her, saying things like 'Mum' and 'Colour' and 'Favourite' or even 'entre' and 'centre'. Literally, it's just spelling stuff and speaking it the way the Brits do. I don't see a problem.
"Amanda, just do it so you can get going to the school." My mum sighed and got back to her taxes.
"Where's the school, anyway? You haven't told me yet." I signed a bunch of the papers and put them back together into a pile.
"California." She answered, and pointed to a large orange envelope. "Put it in there and seal it. We'll be moving you to California in about a week, so you can get to know the town better."
"Wha-okay." I grinned, knowing Slate lived in California. "Does it have dorms? Since you say I'll be living in there?"
"Yes. It's like a college dorm." My mum stood up and sealed her taxes into an envelope. "Okay, now get packed so you're ready."
"Sure, but let me just call Tanaia, Rebecca and Cassie. I wanna know what they think of this." I ran off into my room, and pulled out my cellphone. Dialing Tanaia's number, I smiled as she picked up.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Tanaia. It's Die." I grinned, hearing her laugh.
"Oh hi, Amanda! How are you?" She seemed to bounce about on the other end.
"Well-" I began to explain to her everything. School, Kelly's reaction, and all that. "-so, what do you think?"
"I think that it's your choice! But I'm gonna miss you if you go!" She smiled. "Call me every once in a while, okay?"
"Will do." I nodded, and hung up. "Now Rebecca-" I continued to call my crazy friend, who in turn have me the same reaction as Tanaia.
"And now, Cassie-" I proceeded to call my friend that lived in Pennsylvania, who I explained the whole thing to.
"Awww...all the way in Cali?! Lucky!"
"Dude, I'm gonna be in school. Not much else really." I answered.
"Well, have fun!" She then hung up, and I fell back onto my bed. "Two friends say 'Have a great time!' And the other two say 'I don't think you should go...'...dammit!" I threw my phone into my bag and fell asleep then as there, with visions of friends waving goodbye and visions of friends facing away from me, wishing I had chosen something else.
Or...go to Internet School. Friends I barely know, new teachers, and everyone that understands my fanfics. I sat and waited for them to say 'We were kidding!' or 'April Fools!' as the holiday was just around the corner. But they never did. They meant it?!

I'd be all 'WELCOME TO CALIIIIIII' if you actually moved here
It'd go just like that
