Max's POV

I stood in a room full of ugly brown boxes. They held... My life. Okay, so that was totally soap operaish, but still. I was allowed to be dramatic when I was moving away from my home state and all of my room was in boxes or the moving truck, right! My home state was Washington. Forks, Washington actually! And no to all you crazy fan girls. There are NO vampires. Just me, my school and friends. Oh and my boyfriend. He is actually my ex-boyfriend now. We both agreed that long distance stuff didn't work. Especially when you are moving to freaking Arizona! What? Are we going to have a house in the middle of the freaking desert! I knew I was being a drama queen but seriously? Arizona? I took a deep breath. My mom walked into the room and looked around with a bright smile.

"This is great! The movers will get all of your stuff and will put it in the truck!" I glared at her. Her smile wavered a bit. "Come on Maxi! This is a great opportunity! We'll live in a great neighborhood! Our house is beautiful. Your father is paying for it so of course it's big. Your room has a balcony!" The glare slowly melted off my face. My father was a rich doctor so he made lot of money. So he was good for something. Lets just say we didn't really talk. But to with him paying, our house must be awesome! "A balcony, hu?" I said slowly with a small smirk. Staying mad at my mom was impossible! My mom giggled. "Yes! It's huge!" she exclaimed excitedly. "It even has an indoor swimming pool!" I laughed at my moms excitement. Sometimes she could act like such a little kid. But that definitely wasn't a bad thing. Suddenly my talkative little sister burst into the room. She was my best friend in the whole world, but sometimes her perkiness was... blinding...

"Oh my gosh! I can't wait for tomorrow, Maxi! We'll have a whole new town to make great new friends in! It will be awesome! Oh! And I know how disappointed you are but I bet you will find you a new sexy boyfriend in this town! And the best friends you have ever had! Like in a book! And maybe even a sense of fashion-" Ella rambled, but I cut her off. A sexy boyfriend? What the heck? She had a big imagination. Or maybe she just needed something to talk about. I swear sometimes she just talks to hear her own voice.

"Ella I swear, that was so random! And I have a great sense of fashion!" I said defensively. My mom and Ella snorted. I rolled my emerald-green eyes at them. "Okay, so maybe you have a sense of fashion but it's so... rebelish!" Ella exclaimed, her chocolate colored eyes shining. I creased my eyebrows at her. "Ummm Ells, is 'rebelish' even a word?" I asked her. She shrugged, her straight as a board brown hair flipped off of her shoulder as she did.

"Well relish is a word!" my mom piped in. "Uhh? Well duh mom! But what does that even have to do with anything?" I told her, laughing at her in my best 'you're strange' voice.

"Well... It sort of sounds like rebelish," my mom defended herself.

"Oh my. I take that back! We'll never make friends with a mom like her!" Ella cried dramatically, joking. "Oh yes... You have such a hard life. Me cooking cookies every five seconds, living in a mansion, having a rich father, oh I just don't know how you live!" Mom said sarcastically. "It's hard... But we deal," I said shrugging, "Oh... And mom... Um your five seconds is up! Where are the cookies?" I asked eagerly. "They're downst-" she started, but Ella and I were already gone.

Later that night I lay in my bed. I looked out my window to see the dark clouds cascading over the never-ending sky. The stars danced, lingering in place, but still shimmying all the same. The pale yellow moon radiated light into the dark abyss. It was beautiful. I then saw. The clouds growing thicker and thicker, until suddenly I heard the steady tip-tap off rain splattering on my window. Some people hated rain. Infact, MOST people did. I however, was different. I loved rain. I loved how it slowly came down from the huge, dark clouds, landing gently on your skin, soaking your hair, body, and clothes. I love how you could look up and see all of the tiny droplets slowing down, whirling towards Earth in slow motion. I loved how the next day the fragrance still lingered on the air. I loved how all of the grass and trees looked greener. What can I say? I was a Washington girl at heart. I sat up from my pallet on the floor. My bed had been taken to the moving truck. I looked outside in the blur of the tiny droplets falling around and then did what I loved to do the most. I sang.

If the rain comes down they run and hide their heads They might as well be the rain comes, if the rain comes When the sun shines, they slip into the shade (When the sun shines down.)And sip their lemonade (when the sun shines down.)When the sun shines, when the sun shines.I then took a deep breath as I knew my favorite part was coming on. I was ready to pour my heart out into the steady beat made by the geniuses know as the Beatles. I heard the rain growing stronger, as if my music was helping it to be more powerful. I then exhaled into the I don't , the world looks fine.I can show you that when it starts to rain,(When the rain comes down)Everythings the same (when the rain comes down)I can show you, I can show I don't , the world looks you hear me, that when it rains and shines,(When it rains and shines)It's just a state of mind?(When it rains and shines.)Can you hear me, can you hear me?If the rain comes they run and hide their rieht edih dna nur yeht semoc niar eht fI (Rain)(Rain) -
