Chapter 1: Brand New
Lizzy's POV
I woke up to my mother shaking me.
"Time to get up."she cooed in her british accent. I yawned and stretched. Searching my surroundings I figured out the plane had landed. 'Hello America' I thought as I stood up to grab my carry-on bag. Sighing I got off the plane with my mother.
"Your father will be here soon, why don't you wash up?" She asked me gently.
My mother was a beautiful woman, the complete opposite of me. She had Beautiful black hair that she tied in a bun with a colorful ribbon that matched whatever she wore. Her eyes were light blue and she had a flawless face.
Me on the other hand, looking in the mirror in the bathroom, I knew as ugly. I had long, messy black hair that I kept in a ponytail. My eyes were dark blue and my face was full of acne and dirt that I could never manage to get off.
In the bathroom I scrubbed my face with soap. I know to get rid of acne you need some special product but I could never afford them. All the money I worked for as the breadwinner of the family went toward food. On holidays my bonus' were toward cheap presents for my parents. We were the lower class. Everything changed a last month. Mom won the lottery. She bought two tickets from London to California, a ticket from D.C. to California, and a house in a small town. We left as soon as my father got off duty from the United States army. We were to meet at the airport then go to our new home as a family.
There was one problem. My mother wanted to move closer to my dad's family. So the house she bought was right by my aunt's house. My aunt lived with my dad's ex wife and her twins. My dad had made those twins, so I have two half-siblings. My mom really didn't care. She is a very calm and quiet person so she hardly ever argues, but she refused to chose another house.
After washing my face I walked out to my mother. She was waiting silently with our bags. Finally a large group of people came in the lobby, only one person caught my eye. He had black hair, dark blue eyes and wore a army uniform. My mother got up and ran. She loved him and me more than anything else in the world. He wrapped his arms around her, lifting her off her feet and spun her before kissing her. I got up and ran over too. He embraced me in his arms and kissed my forehead. I was always 'daddy's little girl'.
We left on foot. We went to a car shop and spent the rest of our winnings on a black car (we didn't care for the name) that had five seats and took off to our new house. It was old, yet it looked brand new with a fresh coat of dark blue paint. The designs on the house was a black.
We walked in to see new dark brown hardwood floor. A white couch sat in the middle of the room behind a medium sized flat screen T.V. A white coffee table with matching side tables for the couch and T.V stand was also in the room. The kitchen had traditional white and black tile. The counters and cabinets were black with a white marble countertop and white sea backsplash.
The house also had two bathrooms and a large room dedicated to two computers.
My room was my favorite. I was in the attic. There was a winding staircase leading to my room, windows following the stairs up. My room had white carpet and a ledge where my bed was. In the far corner there was a desk where I sat my my laptop and my phone. The back of the large room there was my blue drums, guitar, bass and keyboard. All were second hand. My walls where also painted blue and filled with posters. Against the front wall there was a vanity. Next to the vanity was a ledge with windows that opened to the roof. The ledge had a blue cushion that opened for storage.
When I was done searching. I went to talk to my parents.
"Don't forget you start your new school tomorrow." my father said.
"Don't forget you start your new job tomorrow." I told him. He leaned forward and kissed my forehead.
"Get some sleep." he told me. I left to go upstairs. I changed putting on a blue nightgown. As I laid down in my new bed I had sweet dreams of my new life.
