So Ive had been off that island for almost a month now. You know I thought my life would change for the better after that but boy was I wrong. It started right when I got off the plane. You see everyone met there own parents and they were all ecstatic. But I looked around and all I saw was my social worker walking towards me. At that moment I knew my life would once again be flipped upside-down.

"Cody Jackson…. Long time no see" she said. I rolled my eyes. Just when I thought my life would have started back on the right track this happens. I mean I was getting used to my new foster home but I guess they just couldn't handle me. Just like every single other one Ive been to… but then it hit me. Melissa. Oh my god, what was I going to tell her. On the plane we told each other our real feelings about each other and it was official we were dating. But who knows where ill be going now. It could have been five minutes away but what if it wasn't, what if it was hours and hours away.

That was all I could think about. The whole time I was contemplating on whether I should tell her or not. I guess I made the wrong decision though because the next day I was on a flight to Miami, Florida.

I NEVER TOLD HER. Nothing I told her nothing. I didn't even have a cell phone to call her from. Oh and my new foster family was too ignorant to let me use the home phone. So I sounded like I ditched Mel, the only person Ive ever trusted. Now im here with nothing. Well I do have only one thing, a picture of Mel. That's it though.

I swear if I could go back and change it all I would. But now im stuck here with people I despise and no life. Let's see there's my new foster mom, Cathy, foster dad, Richard, and my 'sister' Carrie. She's 17 and a little princess to her mommy and daddy. I don't even know why they would want me. Probably just for the attention.

Let's see they live in a huge mansion, they spoil their 'little girl' and are SNOBS. They don't care about what or how I feel only about all the attention they've gotten since I arrived.

A whole month I have been here wasting my time. School sucks, I have no friends like usual. But that isn't surprising. The people here are all rich and self centered. I mean I told myself that I wouldn't stereotype anymore but it is just so hard. I just want to go back to Hartwell. I miss Melissa and I miss my friends.

God I just want to hold her in my arms once again.

Then the day came when my life really did turn upside-down. It all started when Richard woke me up really early. He said I had a 'visitor'. I was really confused but I got dressed fast and went downstairs. As I walked through the doorway and saw who was sitting in the comforter I knew exactly who it was…….

so theres my first chapter. it is really short and there will be longer ones to come. please review and tell me what ya think. thanks...
