~*~*Serena~*~*
I seriously hate moving around, you can't ever get attached to the people you go to school with. I can't stand moving around, but maybe there's some good into it. I mean, like the last school I went to I was labeled a geek; I have no clue why, it's not my fault im kind of smart. Anyway, im living in Tokyo and attending Crossroads Junior High in a week. I hope they will like me.
~*~Hairdressers~*~
As I walked in the salon, I had a sinking feeling in my chest. I was going to cut my long, beautiful blonde hair to just under my shoulders. Worst of all, I was going to dye it too. I have to do this, I thought mentally; otherwise they will never accept me.
"What would you like, miss?" A kind woman by the name of Runetta asked me. I looked up.
"Um..i would like to cut my hair just a little over my shoulders and dye it strawberry blonde." I swallowed. My dad is sure going to be disappointed, but my mom, I don't know, I think she always wanted me to cut it. Runetta looked at my hair and gasped.
"My, my good gracious!!! Your hair!!! It's so beautiful!!! Why on earth do you wish to cut it??"
"Well, it doesn't matter, it will grow back in a year or so, but I don't want to talk about why I want to cut it." I said to her, hoping not to hurt her feelings. Runetta gave me a half smile and nodded understandingly.
"Then I'll do it."
"Thank you very much, Runetta." I said graciously.
"No problem."
~*~*An hour later~*~*
As I looked in the mirror to see the person staring back at me, I smiled. Runetta beamed happily.
"You look gorgeous!!!" I looked in the mirror again, she's right, I thought, I did look good. But I didn't look like me, I couldn't recognize myself anymore and I wouldn't be surprised I wouldn't be able to find myself, not even if my life depended on it. Oh well, mom's going to like this, for sure.father.im not so sure.
~*~At my house~*~
"Serena!!!! What did you do with your hair!!!!! You look sooo different!!!!!! You're beautiful!!!!! My my!!! I must take you shopping sometime!!!" My mother said to me and I walked in the house. I shrugged, mom wanting to spend time with me?? Ya right. She hated me before.. go figure. She was always proud of my little brother, Sammy and took him everywhere and making me stay home by myself.
"Im shopping by myself, as I always have." I said to my mom. Her eyes dropped and went up to me. She hugged my stiffly, and went for the maid for her request for supper.
"Yeah, Serena, you do look good, for some strange reason." Sammy was always talking like this, first a compliment, then an insult.
"Shut up, Sammy before I beat you to a pulp." I glared at him evilly. Sammy shrugged and left the room. I saw my dad look up from his newspaper and his mouth dropped open as if he was going to say something but instead he stood up.
"Serena, you look nice. But you do realize I love you no matter what you do. Ok????" Finally some nice words, but only from my father, not my mother. Mother was always a power-hungry person. It was on of the reasons why she married my father, he was rich. Our house was quite large, it was a mansion and well, really big. My father owned a company that made really expensive shoes. It was actually quite popular, but I didn't tell anybody that he owned it. It would make me popular instantly; something I didn't want. I wanted to earn popularity instead of getting it instantly.
"Thank you daddy." I went up to him and hugged him. I saw him look at his watch and he sighed. I knew that he had to go to work for a bit.
"I'll see you in a bit, I'll try to be back before supper, ok, sweetie??" I nodded as my father went out the door.
~*~Supper~*~
"Serena, you must want a tour to go around Tokyo. I've arranged someone to meet you tomorrow and show you around-even your school. Ok?" My father said, a tour in Tokyo, how fun, I heard that Tokyo was great for it's sushi, but then, everyone knew that. I love sushi.
"That's fine." I managed to squeak out. Please, please, please don't let him to be some old man who can't talk without stopping. please, please please, life be fair on me for once!
"His names Andrew." Ahh, Andrew, what a nice name. Please say that he isn't old!!!!!!
"Ok." I said.
"He will be picking you up around 10 k?"
"Yes father." I said and we ate the last of our meal, and I went to bed.
~*~Next Day~*~
"Miss, the person who is showing you around is here. By dear-he sure is handsome!" Lily said, her green eyes sparkling. Though she was a couple years older than me, we got along really well.
"Thank you, Lily. He better be cute!!!" I said as cheerfully as I could. Mornings were NOT for me, as for other people. I got up and got dressed as fast as I could, spending the most time on my hair, then grabbed a piece of French toast Lina made of me. I ran out to the car awaiting me and opened the door. I almost dropped my toast.
"You're Andrew??" I managed to squeak out. He was sooo CUTE!!!!! With his blue eyes and blonde hair. oh baby!!!! Im so lucky!!!! He is a TOTAL hottie!!! I kept thinking this till I snapped back to reality.
"Yes, I am Andrew." His eyes were twinkling, almost smiling.
"Oh I see!" I blurted out. Not cool, not smooth. I have to work on that!
"Yeah." Andrew said. We drove in silence for a while but we only talked when he was telling me where everything was. After an hour or so, with me trying to start a conversation, but not succeeding, I gave up. It was soon after when Andrew asked me if I wanted to go inside the arcade where he worked. I graciously accepted. I could meet other people here.
~*~Andrew~*~
Her eyes, they are silver, she's not wearing contacts, either.
~*~Arcade~*~
I walked into the arcade with Andrew, the oh so loud chatter of the arcade stopped. They looked at me with curiosity and I clutched onto Andrews arm harder.
"Amy, Lita, Raye and Mina, this is Serena." Andrew said. Amy had blue hair with blue eyes, Lita had brown hair with brown eyes. Raye had almost red hair with purple eyes and Mina, who was slurping up the rest of her milkshake, had blue eyes and blonde hair, which was now longer than mine.
"Hello." Amy said politely.
"Hi." Lita grinned.
"Nice to meet you." Raye said, with a smile playing her lips.
"Wow!!! You're pretty!!!" Mina burst out.
"Thank you, Mina, and hello to all of you guys." I said as politely as I could.
"Would you like to sit with us?" Mina said.
"Um.." I said, glancing at Andrew. He nodded.
"Sure." I said as I sat down.
"So where are you from?" Amy asked curiously.
"Well, you name it. I've been to Edmonton, France, Scotland, Italy and Germany. But I just came from Monaco."
"Why do you move so much?" Mina asked.
"My fathers job." I said briefly. We all sat in silence.
"Sooo." Raye said, trying to break the silence.
"Ah...Im going to get a drink, I'll be right back." I said
"Want me to come with you to get drink?" Lita asked
"Um. Sure, but you don't have to come if you don't want to. I don't mean to be a bother." I said.
"Nonsense, we like you. And I want to have an excuse to talk to Andrew." Lita grinned.
"Ok." Me and Lita went up to the counter and Andrew asked what we wanted. While Lita and Andrew chatted while he was making my smoothie, I was sitting by myself.
"Excuse me, Andrew, but how come the girls got introduced to this fine being standing before me but I didn't?"
