Kim's P.O.V

Flashback
"No leave me alone!"
"Oh Kimmy Kimmy Kimmy, don't fret. It's ok I'm here for you"
"No your not just let me go home!"
"But I'm not finished with you"
"No, please, don't!"

I shot up panting. I didn't recognise this room.
"Kim babe your late for school" My aunty said
"Ok, a fresh new start." I thought to myself
My names Kimberly Anne Crawford but you can call me Kim C.
I moved here last week, this is my auntie's home in Seaford. I moved from L.A for an unmentionable reason. Usually I would hate moves but this time... I couldn't be happier. A fresh start.

I rolled up my blind to let some light it but it was of no use! I just saw another window.

I got into the shower as memories flooded through my head. I washed the dirt off my skin and I shampooed my hair. I rinsed it and repeated. I poured cream over my body as I slipped into a towel. I walked to my room and plugged my iPod to the doc. I was about to take my towel off when I noticed a boy, my age brown shaggy hair working out through the window into another house.

"Don't know him, so I don't want him to see me naked" I muttered I walked to the blinds and I was in the middle of pulling it when it got stuck. He met with my eyes and smiled at me and I smiled back. He gave a confused look as I realised I was only wearing a towel. I pulled the blind a bit faster as he chuckled. I waved as I pulled the blind completely. Which meant the whole room turned dark.
I turned the lights on as I thought
"I want to be someone else. Someone different. I want to be noticed and I want things to change."

I opened the door to my walk in closet as I walked around. There was nothing here that would get me noticed. So I walked downstairs.
"Aunty?" I said
"Yeah sweetheart?" She asked
"Can I borrow some clothes, some makeup, some shoes, some jewellery and your curling iron?" I asked casually she raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, I get it. You want to be Kim C. Not Kimmy Crawford?" She asked in realisation
I flinched to the word Kimmy
"Yeah" I sighed
"Go ahead my lovely" she said

I ran upstairs and I walked into her room. My aunty was awesome. She was about 24 and she was the most fashionable person ever. I felt more comfortable around my aunty than my own mother. Because my mom never let me date or go out with boys whilst my aunty acts like a child and she lets me live my life the way I want. She told me she trusts me to make my own decisions because I'm a smart girl who she believes in. Think of me as cruel but I think I prefer her to my own mother.

I strolled through her walk in closet and picked out a black blouse. It was kind of see through so I had to wear a black vest underneath. I also took some really pretty black heels.
I looked at her makeup wardrobe and took mascara, eyeliner and lipgloss. Nothing too heavy.
I also took out some really pretty small silver drop earrings, a necklace that matched and a charm bracelet (which was mine I just loved it so much I placed it in her jewellery box).

I walked back and picked out my own short shorts and got changed. Once I was done I opened the blinds to see the boy wearing his shirt. I spun around not wanting to be seen gawking and walked back to my aunts room. I picked up her curling iron and dragged my feet along the carpet to my room again. I bent down to plug it in and stepped in front of a full length mirror.

I growled in frustration at my now wavy not curled hair as my aunty ran upstairs. My aunt ran upstairs with hair products and placed it on the desk.
"Don't worry babe I have it taken care of!" She said as she got a bottle of something and sprayed it onto her hands. It came out like foam. She covered my hair with it and massaged my scalp.
I looked at my watch. 30 minutes left, that should be enough time.
She pulled out the hair dryer and plugged it in and dried my hair.
"Why do you need to dry me hair it's ready dry." I said
"Because the foam I put in your hair works when it's dry." She said
"Why do I need the foam?" I asked
" because it helps with the heat." She said
She unplugged the hair dryer and threw it onto my bed. She then covered my hair with heat started to curl my hair.
One by one it passed my shoulder as my long straight blond hair was put into perfect ringlets. I looked into the mirror and didn't believe it was me. Usually my hair would be tied up or straightened by a flat iron but I looked different. My fringe was put into a quiff and only the bottom of my hair was in curls whilst the middle was perfectly straight. Usually I would have been a bit upset that only the bottom way put into curls but I liked my new look.
She sat me onto the makeup stool and grabbed her makeup bag. She started off with putting a bit of blush onto the top of my cheeks. She then put gold eyeshadow onto my eyelids. She coated and re-coated the mascara and liquid eyeliner. And ended up with putting a bit of red lipgloss onto my lips. I opened my eyes and I was shocked. I honestly didn't recognise myself. My aunty grabbed my camera and snapped some pictures of me. With the remaining three minutes I had left I uploaded the pictures on Facebook.

With that I went downstairs as my aunty handed me a Paul's Boutique bag.
"New start, new personality, new bag!" Sh said I laughed and kissed her cheek and walked out the door with an apple.

I walked out to see the boy I saw through my window walking out the door. He was wearing a black V-neck and some chinos. I was about to lock the door when he walked up to me.
"Hi I'm Jack." He said with a smile
"I'm Kim!" I said playing with my apple
"So your new right?" He asked
"Yeah I moved in with my aunty my parents are still in L.A." I said walking along as he followed me
"Cool, L.A that's a big move." He said
"Yeah, it was a really long plane ride" I said he chuckled
"Why the big move?" He asked
"Nothing really" I said lying through my teeth "it's just I thought it would be better If I lived with my aunt... I kinda prefer her to my parents" I said
"Why?"
"Because they're over protective. No dating boys, no going out till after 9:00pm."
"Bummer" he said
"Yeah but now everything's gonna change!" I said really chirpy
"It is, Seaford is an amazing place." He said
"So what school do you go to?" he continued
"Seaford High"
"Same that's awesome"
It was a comfortable silence until I spoke again
"Why can I see your room through my window?" I asked
"Oh our rooms are literally opposite each other, what I don't understand is why they didn't put it on another wall" he said as I laughed
"Yeah, remind me to close my blind when I change" I laughed
"Your telling me? A boy? Well you can tell me to remind you but, knowing our species... I probably won't!" He stated as I giggled
"I have a feeling we're going to get along" I said
"No kidding!" He replied
We walked up to an amazingly colourful school
"Wow, this school doesn't look like a prison" I said
"Hence the word school" he said
"Thank you for walking me to school" I said
"I'm not finished yet, let me walk you to the office" he said as he showed he wanted me to link arms. He walked me into the school and I could feel the eyes on me as the hallway went completely quiet.
"Please tell me their looking at you" I whispered
"No their looking at us" He said
"Why?" I asked again worried
" because they're shocked at an extremely hot girl linked with my arms." He said whispering in my ear
I blushed a bright red as he dragged me through the room as we talked. Still with eyes on us.


"What do you have Jack?" I asked
"Umm... Monday... Period 1…I have Dance with ms Ainscoe " He said pointing at a door
"Me too!" I smiled
"Why so happy to be with me" he smirked
"Someone I know why do you ask?"
I said
" Oh nothing just sounded like a crush" He said cockily
" You realise you called me extremely hot" I said
"I did, so?"
"Oh nothing!"
"come on let's go in!"
"No!" I said
"Ok I'll make you!"
"I'd like to see you try" I said crossing my arms around my chest
He picked me up bridal style and I kicked me legs whilst laughing
"Jack put me down" I said laughing so hard
He walked into the room and everyone was looking at us. Shit.
"Jack put me down!" I whispered as he did. I straightened my top and sat in an empty seat as Jack did the same.
"Ok welcome to dance everyone. New year new partners. This year we will have girl boy partners because we are going to do the waltz. Since this is a very intimate dance I have assigned you with a comfortable partner. Boyfriends and Girlfriends
Donna with James
Kelsey with Eddie
Julie with Milton
Grace with Jerry
Hannah with Tyler
Ace with Dean

And finally Jack with Kim" Ms Ainscoe finished
"Me and Jack aren't dating" I said
"Yeah we're just friends" Jack said
"Didn't look that way when you ENTERED the room" She said
Ooops
"Ok move your chairs to the side and stand opposite your partner. Girls on the red line and boys on the blue."
She said we did as we were told. I stood in front of Jack.
"Girls grab your skirts/dresses/shorts/jeans whatever and curtsy."
We did as we were told
"Boys put your hand out,girls grab it and step forward, after girls grab their shoulders boys grab their waist"


The rest of the lesson went pretty quick.
"Ok guys homework, practice with your partner on the routine but make or better. Make it more classy. Best two get a prize." Ms Ainscoe said
As me and Jack walked out the room.
