The New Girl
Sharpay Evans was on her way to California as she looked out her car window. Her parents were making their family move because of her dad's job. Sharpay wasn't too thrilled when she heard about this. I mean, who would be? Sure, her old life wasn't the most exciting thing in the world, but she still didn't want to give it up.
"Are we almost there?" Sharpay huffed.
"Yes, we are about 10 minutes away." Her mother answered.
'Finally!' She thought. She noticed her reflection in the car mirror staring back at her. She has chocolate-brown eyes that could make any guy melt to the ground. Her long blond hair lightly fell over her shoulders. She started to imagine what her new California life would be like. There was the beach at least. That was definitely a plus. Just then, Sharpay was snapped out of her thoughts when she felt someone tap her arm.
"What?" She turned to her twin brother, Ryan.
"I can't believe their making us do this." Ryan complained.
"Tell me about it." Sharpay took a deep breath and continued looking out the window. "This sucks."
About 10-15 minutes later, the family pulled into a circle driveway.
Their mother turned around to face Sharpay and Ryan.
"We're here." She gave them an encouraging smile.
"Whoopee." Sharpay whispered under her breath. She slowly stepped out of the car and took a look at her new surroundings. Their new house was actually pretty big. It was a beach style house and had a big balcony towards the top. Maybe that was her new room!
She could only hope as she hurried inside. Before she could sprint upstairs, her mother stopped her.
"I know this is hard honey, but I appreciate you being so reasonable about this. That's why you can have the room with the balcony." Her mother said with a warm smile.
"Really?" Sharpay was starting to cheer up. "Thanks mom!"
She ran upstairs to look at her new room. She felt a small, hesitate breath escape her as she turned the doorknob to reveal what looked to be, a decently-sized room. Who was she kidding? This room was huge! Maybe things were looking up…
Sharpay slipped outside onto the balcony and noticed the beautiful view.
"Wow, you can see the ocean from here!" She exclaimed.
Her eyes scanned over the identical houses that followed the view. The sun was setting which created a slight shadow over everything. Just as she was about to walk back inside, she saw a boy dribbling a basketball outside. From what she could tell, he looked to be about her age. She could make out some shaggy brown hair and a well-tuned body though. Maybe moving here wouldn't be so bad after all…
