Chapter 1. Newbies in town
I hate moving. I cant stand it! But, who can? Today, is a very suckish day because my family and I are moving…..again….this is the 10th time we have moved. And today is hopefully the last time we ever move.
"Haley, are you even listening to a word im saying?" I turned to look away from the window of the car, only to find my mom staring at me questioningly.
"Sorry." I mumbled
"I was saying that your new high school is coming just on this next street we're fixing to turn on." just as she said that, we turned on the street, and I saw a very nice looking building. There was a big sign which read "Hollow Bastion High". It looked very nice and…big….
"Dad, you promise that we aren't moving anymore…Ever. Again.?" I asked my father.
"Nope. Not anymore. We're staying here for good." Oh thank god!
"Great, I was wondering if we were ever gonna stop traveling the world!" I turned to face my older brother, Squall, who had an amused grin.
"Look, everyone. Were finally here!" I looked out the window as we stopped, and saw a very nice two story house in front of my eyes.
"Welcome to our new home!"

After a couple of hours of unpacking everything, we could finally relax. I laid down on my bed, and stared at the ceiling of my new room. I couldn't believe that we would be staying here for good! YAY! NO MORE MOVING! I was jolted out of my joyfulness and celebrating when I felt something jump on my bed.
"So squirt….?" I opened one eye to stare at my brother, who had made himself quite comfortable on my bed.
"What 'Squall'?" I smirked evilly. He hated being called Squall, which is his real name. Instead, he preferred Leon. When he started calling himself Leon, our mom got so mad! She went on about this whole thing where if your parents give you a very noble and unique name, you should use it, but he didn't stop calling himself Leon, so she gave up on it. I call him Squall just to annoy him, or when im really mad at him.
"It's Leon." He corrected me. "And I was wondering what you thought of this place?"
"I like it."
"Hn."
"What about you…? What do you think about this place?"
"It's ok…Kinda nice." Of course…Leon was all about short and unenthusiastic answers. Every place that we've moved to that I've asked him how he feels about, its always been 'kinda nice.'
"Ok." I replied, picking up my pillow and hugging it to me.
"So…what'd you think about our new school?"
"I think it looks pretty nice…and big…" I added in the last part with emphasis. Tomorrow was the day that we would start our first day of school, along with all the other kids here in Radiant Garden.
"Hn."
"Why, are you nervous?" I looked over at him, a smirk gracing my face. Instead of saying anything, he grabbed my pillow that I had been hugging, and hit me with it, before running out of my room.
'I'll take that as an unknown answer.'
The next morning:
'BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP'
"Ughhh," I groaned as I moved my hand to my nightstand, feeling for my noisy alarm clock. I slammed my fist down onto the snooze button as soon as I found it, and sleepily crawled out of my bed. I grabbed my clothes that I had sat out for the day, and made my way to the bathroom, running into a wall a couple times on the way. After taking a nice hot shower, and washing my hair, I got dressed and dried my hair, tying it up into its usual messy ponytail. I was wearing jeans and a purple shirt decorated with pretty designs on it (I'm bad at clothing descriptions, so don't judge me!). I exited the bathroom, only to find my brother standing in front of the door, glaring at me. He looked awful in the mornings. I didn't bother to piss him off. I walked past him, giving him entrance to the bathroom, and walked downstairs to find my mom cooking us breakfast.
"Morning sweetie!" She chided happily as she flitted around the kitchen with her cooking.
"Morning mom. What're you making?" I asked, taking a seat at the table. She placed a plate in front of me, along with some silverware.
"Eggs and bacon, along with some toast." She placed the following on to my plate, and I immediately began munching down on the food. I was finished within five minutes.
"Well, I think I'm going to go early so I can find my classes." I concluded as I took my plate and dumped into the sink.
"You're not going to wait for Squall?" I wanted to snicker at how she easily calls him by his first name still.
"Nah, besides, when he gets in the bathroom after I do, he never gets out. Besides, he'll just make us both late."
"Well, ok. Have good day! Love you!" My mom shouted from the kitchen as I walked towards the front door, picking my back-pack up as I moved towards the door.
"LOVE YOU TOO!" I shouted as I opened the door, but turning back around to face the stairs. "HAVE FUN BEING LATE TO SCHOOL 'SQUALL'!" I heard something like angry yelling coming from my brother upstairs, as I exited my house, and began the short walk to school.
A/N: So, I hoped you guys liked it enough to give it some good reviews! LATER TATERS!
