A/N Sadly I own no characters except for Nina. The rest belong to Steve Franks and the USA network.

I jumped out of bed and smashed her hand into the alarm clock. "Lousy piece of junk…Why in the world did mom have to pick today to have them meet with some guy named Shawn? Now instead of going to Angie's sleepover I get to hop on a plane and fly myself over to Santa Barbara. Whoop de freakin doo."

"Ninaaaaa … get down here" mom shouted. Ohh mom. I just remembered how mad I am at her. I plod down the stairs, trying to figure out how I can contort my face to look the most miserable. "Oh Nina" that woman says," Your going to love Shawn. You might even find you have more in common with him than you think."

"Oh yes, I'm sure I have so much in common with a man who lives halfway across the country."

"You know what, I'm the mother I want you to be quiet and enjoy going to California like any other kid would."

"Fine, I'll just lose all my friends and be the only girl at school who wasn't at Angie's sleepover."

"Just get your stuff and go to the car."

Ohh I'm looking forward to this, missing the coolest sleepover in the world so I can fly across the country to meet a total stranger.

A/N I know it was wicked short but I promise the next chapter will be better. Please review. The Ginga Ninga
