Okay, listen up! This story was originally made by BlackSwanGirl, but she is currently taking a break. So now I have taken over! All chapters past chapter 2 are written by me! Sorry if the style is different. Updates will be frequent. Thank you again BlackSwanGirl! (I DO NOT OWN CHARACTERS.)
Chapter 1: Packing
Sophie stared at her dresser, wondering which shirt she would need the most.
She checked her phone. New York was supposed to be cold. She took the cream colored shirt, folded it neatly, and placed it in her suitcase.
She had almost enough clothes.
Sophie was turning sixteen next week, and her big birthday present was a three week trip to New York. She was going with her best friend, Fitz, and her parents. They left the next day.
Sophie glanced out her window. It was almost dusk, so the last rays of sun seemed to filter though her window, shining the perfect amount of light into her small room.
There was a knock on the door. It was Fitz, with his own phone. He was filming.
"I'm documenting everything," he explained. "Starting five minutes ago."
Sophie laughed. "Okay." She grabbed her own camera to take a picture of the sunset.
She closed the curtains, smiling. She couldn't wait for tomorrow. She flopped onto the bed, looking out her other window. Fitz still had the camera focused on her.
"Alright," she said. "That's enough filming for today. Let's play some monopoly."
"Yes!" Fitz said, pumping his fist in the air. Monopoly was their favorite game, and they had an ongoing tournament. Sophie had won the last game.
The pair sat down on Sophie's wooden floor as the sun fell behind the buildings.
"I'm gonna win." Fitz said.
"I'd like to see you try."
