A/N: Hey guy, my name's Aqua. This is my first story, so if it sucks, I'm so sorry. Anyway, Iggy, do the disclaimer!

Iggy: Aqua doesn't own anything.

Me: Right. Now on with our story!

Chapter 1

Max POV

"Max, come on, we're going to be late!" my younger sister, Ella, yelled. Oh, you must be wondering who I am. My name is Maximum Ride, but anyone who calls me something other than Max will be kicked into next week. I live with my mom, Dr. Valencia Martinez, and my younger sister, Ella. I used to live in warm, sunny California, but today I am moving to Phoenix, Arizona. Yay. (Note the sarcasm.) I was in the car, listening to my IPod.

Hey there, Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there, Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there, Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there, Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah, I can promise you
That by the time that we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame

Hey there, Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there, Delilah, here's to you
This one's for you

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

Ah, The Plain White T's. While I listened to one of my favorite bands, Ella was interrogating Mom on what the new house would look like, which room would be her's, all that jazz. I just sat there, listening to a new song by a band I never heard before, called "The Flock". They were really good. I decided I would have to look them up later.

TIME SKIP 3 HOURS LATER

Finally, after 3 HOURS, we arrived at the house. It was HUGE! Before the car even stopped, I was outside, running to get the first room. I saw a room with a balcony window, and instantly fell in love. "I call this room!" Ella came up and came into MY room. "Aw, Max, no fair! I want this one! MOM!" My mom came into the room with a smile on her face. "Sorry Ells, Max got here first. But the other room has the bigger closet." Ella screeched as I covered my ears. Man, that girl is loud! I asked mom if we could go to the paint store to paint our rooms, and she said yes. Ella and I talked about color schemes all the way to the store. I wanted different blues; she wanted different pinks and purples. Big surprise. I found 2 colors, called Ice Water and Nevada Sky. Ella found Plum Purple, Sunlight Sparkle, and Princess Pink. Way too girly for my taste. We got home and set to work.

3 HOURS LATER

I finished, and I got to say, it looked pretty good. The walls with my door and the balcony were painted Nevada Sky, while the other two were painted Ice Water. I sat on my bed thinking, 'This was a good day.'

A/N: Yay! Done with chapter 1! How was it? Iggy?

Iggy: R&R! She'll give you virtual cookies!
