Yay, I'm starting a new fic! Haha, I've written three stories...
Chapter One
"SiSi, when're you coming back?" My little seven year old sister, Alexis was sitting on my bed, swinging her legs as I packed my things in my bag.
"Yeah, SiSi," joked my only other sibling, twelve year old Daniel. He was helping me pack. I rolled my eyes. When Alexis was little, she couldn't say my real name, Sierra, so she called me SiSi. Obviously, the nickname stuck, although Daniel always made fun of my nickname.
"Well, it matters. If I become a popstar, then I'll come here in a limo, on your birthday maybe. If I don't get signed, then I'll walk the way here," I joked, pushing my black bangs out of my eyes.
"Sierra!" I looked up to see Alexis' eyes widen. "But we live in Florida! No way can you walk here from California!"
"Oh, did I say walk? I meant swim," I replied, teasing her even more.
"Really? I know you're in a swim team, but isn't that far?" I've been on the swim team for eight years.
"Lexi, when you're sixteen years old like Sierra, you think you can do anything." Daniel laughed at how Alexis believed everything I said.
"Alexis, I'm just joking, don't worry," I added, assuring her that if my family went on a cruise ship, they wouldn't see me swimming in the ocean.
"Sierra, where do you plan on staying?" Daniel asked, curious. "Are you staying with Uncle Nick? He lives in Sacramento, after all."
"No, I'm staying by myself, in a place called the Palm Woods, I think. It has a famous pool."
"Lexi, wanna help me pack?"
"Sure, as long as you don't swim back to our house to visit us."
I had gotten off the plane in LAX and rode in a taxi. I was currently on my way to the Palm Woods, the home of the future famous.
I heard my phone ring and saw that it was my mom, so I picked it up, guessing that she wanted to check on how I was doing. I was right.
"Mom, I'm fine," I said, sighing. It was the fifth time my mom had called since the plane landed.
"Really?"
"Yes, mom. Really. I promise I won't go and get arrested or anything. Please stop calling me, please? I love you and everything…" On the other end of the line, I could hear my mom sighing, contemplating on if she should say yes or no.
"Fine. But, remember not to spend all your money at the same time, okay?"
"Okay, mom. I'll remember."
"Bye, sweetie!" When she hung up, I laughed. I just had to admire how my mom worried so much.
Once I stepped into the Palm Woods, I looked around, and immediately set my eyes on the pool. So that's the famous Palm Woods pool.
As questions were running through my head about my new home, I bumped into someone. "Sorry," I muttered. I bent down to pick up the things the person dropped, and realized that the person had luggage, too.
"Are you new here?" I asked shyly. I handed the boy his bags, and he nodded.
"Yeah, we came here to become a band."
"Um, who's 'we', exactly?" The boy pointed to the vending machine, where a boy with a helmet was busy putting quarters in the slot. Next, he pointed to a boy with brunette hair talking to some girls. He then pointed to another boy sitting by himself, reading books.
"So, what room are you guys staying in?" I stared at the boy with the helmet while I was asking the question and quietly laughed. He looked excited when he got the Fruit Smackers.
"We're in 2J. Have you gotten your room number yet?"
"No, I was just about to do that. So, see you soon, then?" The boy nodded, waved, and then walked over to the boy reading the books.
I headed to the lobby desk, and the man standing there rolled his eyes and crossly asked "What?" I patiently asked for my room keys, so he handed them to me. "2E," he said, "Down the hall from the hockey heads. Have a Palm Woods day!" I grabbed my keys and headed for the elevator.
"Home sweet home," I said as I opened the door. My room wasn't that big, but it wasn't that small, either. The room didn't seem that decorated, but if I added a few things, it would look fine. I wondered if that boy's apartment looked like mine. Wait…
Dang it. I never even got that boy's name! Jeez, how did I forget to even ask him?
Once I was done unpacking, I decided to go down and visit the famous pool. I put on a black and blue bikini and grabbed my sunglasses. I might as well go there, since I don't have anything to do, right?
Maybe I'd even meet those boys again…
So...what did you guys think? Was it good?
