Disclaimer: If I ever own the O.C. (which I don't), I would be in heaven... Stuff the freaking fact that I don't own this great TV drama series.
A/N: Hiya ppl! This is The O.C.-oholic speakin' here! If you have read my GREAT O.C. story (sarcasm), or dog tags' fantastic Xmen story, then you will absolutely adore this one! Drama, angst, and romance all mixed into one (I know the thingy doesn't say romance but stuff the 2 genre thing!). The truth is, Bec AKA dog tags and I are sharing the account, typing an O.C. story! I type this chapter, she types the chapter 2, so on so forth. Anyway, please review after you read, because Bec and I are hungry for reviews! Then next chapter, Bec will be hosting. She's a really good author and she's really weird, friendly, wacky, crazy, talkative, a Green Day/blink 182/The Living End stalker, so on, so forth – all the personality a best mate could have. Anyway, on with the chapter...
Explanation: Okay dudes, time to explain before the chapter. Luke decided to stay instead of leaving Newport in season 1. I dunno where the hell this story is set up but Bec and I will explain. So Luke is here, Ryan and Marissa aren't together anymore, Summer and Seth are a couple. Marissa wants Ryan back, but Ryan isn't ready yet. Luke is single? Girlfriend Julie? I don't know you'll have to ask Bec that. Caleb is already married with Julie by the way. Hmm... Done with the explanation. Okay, NOW starting the chapter.
Kaela Strachan looked into the old mirror to see her reflection. Straight auburn hair with black streaks up to her shoulder, penetrating eyes, perfect nose, perfect lips, long eyelashes, the left ear with 2 sleepers, the right ear with 2 sleepers and a silver stud next to them and pale skin. She had to admit, she was quite pretty. Did she look fine for Harbor? I traveled all the way from Canada to Newport so this place better be good, She thought. Does anyone have a family like me here? Evil step mom, abusive dad who's always drunk, no sisters, no brothers, no mother. It's kinda like Cinderella. Actually, not really. Kaela laughed at her imagination. What if I don't make any friends at Harbor since I'm such a rebel? Or too skinny? Nah, that wouldn't matter. She looked at her nails which were painted black. How old am I? 17 years old. or something like that. Kaela stepped back to see her full body. Baggy jeans, long sleeved top and a band tee over that. Very skinny, medium height, no muscle definition. Well, that's enough 'looking at myself' for me. I'm not used to this anyway. Tomorrow's the first day of Harbor for me. Hope I make new friends.
Kaela fell back on her bed, and looked at her photo of her mom and herself when they were young. I miss my mom, I wish I could see her, but she's dead, and I blame it all on dad. Kaela loved gazing at the photo of her mom and her, wondering why she died. She also loved blaming things on her step mom and her dad. Was anyone unfortunate as her? Did anyone suffer family problems this much? Does anyone feel like running away from home, far away from everything? She hasn't spoken to her dad for days. He never really cared about her, nor did she care about him. Okay, I better get to sleep, it's already 11:30. And tomorrow's school, my first day. I'm so excited, happy to be away from my step mom and dad at least for 6 hours, every day. She felt as if Harbor was going to be her…safe place maybe? Kaela was going to feel safe and secure, or not...
Kaela slowly opened her eyes. First day of school! She sang in her head.
So today, I'm gonna try hard on school work and making new friends...
A/N: Okay, just a quick little chap since I don't know what to write next, but chapter 2 is planned by Bec so it's gonna be HELL GOOD! If you want the next chapter, review now or we'll track you down... Cya. Till chapter 3!
