"Good morning New York City! It's 6:00 AM on this Wednesday morning."
"Oh shut up!" Bella Montez yelled at her alarm clock. She smacked the snooze and turned over back into sleep.
"Raine, you have got to get up!" Gabriella yelled into her daughter's bedroom. Bella let out a huge groan. "NOW! I swear honey, you are…"
"Just like my father. I know mom. And I honestly couldn't care less. I mean I've never even met the man…yet you always compare me to him. The way I eat, the way I brush my teeth. Gah is it ever going to stop?"
"Save the drama for the stage sweetie. Right now, just get out of the bed, and get ready for school." Gabriella said and then she went into her bedroom to get ready for work. The Montez women lived in a penthouse on the fifty-first floor of a NYC sky scrapper. Gabriella was a successful lawyer and Bella, commonly known as Bella, was the girl every eighth grader at East Manhattan Middle School wanted to be. Smart, popular and athletic with a singing voice that made her sound much more than her 14 years. Her blazing blue eyes and golden brown curls added gorgeous to the list. An hour later she was dressed, as she waked in she saw her mother doing dishes at the sink.
"Ready for spring break?" Gabriella asked as her daughter sat down with an apple.
"More than ready. What are we doing? Can we go back to Miami…or maybe shopping in Montreal? Or this year we could go to Paris!" Bella said with a smile. That smile fade when her mother turned to her with a frustrated look on her face.
"Bella, I have to do some work this year in Atlanta, so I was thinking you would go see your Grandmother in..."
"Mom, I can't go to New Mexico for the whole spring break. What would I do there? And doesn't Gramma work all day? Remember what you're always telling me about being home alone to much?" Raine said, trying her hardest to get out of it.
"Raine, you didn't let me finish. Janet Blackwell has to go to Atlanta too and she needs a place for Tyler to stay. So I asked her if she would let him go with you and she agreed." Gabriella said, hoping that she hadn't ruined her daughter's holiday too badly. "I'm sorry honey, we can go Paris and Miami this summer. We'll take two weeks for each! How's that sound?"
"I guess it'll be better with Tyler there. And two weeks in Paris sounds much better than five days!" Lorraine said. The doorbell rang. "That's Ty. I gotta go. Bye mom." She said as she quickly gave her mom a hug and grabbed her bags.
"Bye honey. Do you have your basketball stuff? Your script?" Gabriella asked worriedly.
"Yes mother I have everything. I'll see you at the game!" She said as she hurried out the door.
"Hey Bella!" Said Tyler Blackwell. He and Raine's Bella's mothers had been best friends since Gabriella started at the law firm when Lorraine was three. Tyler had been in all of her classes since kindergarten and the two had been friends since before they could dribble a basketball.
"Hey Ty, let's go." She said as she shut the door to her home.
"So are you ready for the state championship? When is it?"
"Tyler, I have been ready for that game since I was five. And it's right after spring break. But there won't be a state championship if I can't win tonight's game." She said as they walked into the elevator.
" You will, don't worry. What about the science exam today?" Tyler asked with a smirk.
"Now that…I don't think I'll ever be ready for." She laughed. The two teens got off the elevator and stepped into the lobby of Lorraine's building. They walked across the huge room and outside onto the streets of New York City. Bella took a deep breath. "I don't think I'll ever get tired of this smell!" Tyler laughed.
"What? The smell of a polluted city? I think I could." Bella rolled her blue eyes and giggled at her friend's bluntness.
"I know, but I love New York so much!" She said serenely.
"All right Bella, stop smelling the smog and let's get to school. We don't want to be late. Get the taxi." Tyler told her. She nodded and stepped onto the street corner.
"TAXI!" She yelled. Five cabs stopped instantly and she smiled. She opened the door and let Tyler in before she slid in and shut the door. "East Manhattan Middle." She told the driver who grunted in response and started driving. Before they knew it, they were stepping out of the cab and onto the school grounds of the school.
"All right Montez! Good hustle!" The coach called while Raine ran down the court, her sandy brown curls were flying in her face, but she couldn't brush them away. She didn't have time, if she won this game for her team, they would be playing in the state championship. But if they lost, the season was over. She quickly faked right and sprinted to the left for the last shot. If she got this one, they would win by one point. She shot the ball up and prayed that it would go in. The crowd started counting down the seconds, and Lorraine just stood there and sucked in the moment. This was what she lived for. The cheering of the crowd and the adrenaline rush she got when she was on the basketball court. The only thing that topped it was being on the stage belting a song out. She looked at the audience. She saw her mother's face and beside her were Janet and Tyler Blackwell. Those people had been her family since before she could remember and she loved them for being at this game. There was just one person she wished could be there. She wanted him to be standing in the stands screaming for him the way her mother had done. She wanted her father. She had everything else she could ever want. Tons of friends, she was the captain of her school's basketball team and was already guaranteed a spot on the high school varsity team in the year to follow. She could sing and act, and she was considered to be smart by all her classmates and teachers. But her father was missing from that picture. He was the only thing she yearned for. Raine was pushed out of her daydream when the crowd started screaming wildly. She heard the buzzer go off and before she knew it, she was holding the district championship trophy in her hands. She had done it. Her team was going to state.
