“Leave it with me; I’ll figure something out,” he promises. I’m oddly glad to be off the hook. It’s also nice not to have to be the one planning and juggling and overseeing everything.

Once again, I find myself grateful that Baxter is such a huge part of Raven’s life. If things go to plan, we’ll be in each other’s lives a lot more too, because I don’t plan on fucking things up with Raven again. I’m not leaving. No, it’s time for a new plan; operation put things right with Raven. Needs a catchier name, but I can work on that later. For now, I just need to make her fall in love with me once more.

I just have to figure out how.

Charlotte’s Diary

31/08/21

Agh! I can’t believe that today is moving day! Baxter has, of course, taken care of everything, and all Phoenix and I have to do is supply the Yorkie bars as he drives the van to our new home.

I’m glad to be moving, excited to be starting university in a week, but a little sad that we’re going to be so far away from Baxter now.

But I have to focus on the positives. On to new adventures.

Edinburgh University offers the best course for me, and a change is as good as a rest...is that right? I’m not sure, but I’m going with it.

So today we go; the first step in changing our lives for the better! I never could have got here without the endless hours of studying when Phoenix was in bed, the many many part time and work from home jobs I took on in the past year, and of course, Baxter’s subsidised accommodation.

But it’s time to stand on my own two wobbly, nervous feet.
