A/N So, this is my first story here on Fanfiction and I am really excited to be breaking out with the Princess Diaries! This story will be the first in hopefully a long series of Michael's thoughts through all of the books because I really love his character and just want to do a lot of writing from his point of view! I would love it if you all reviewed so I know how my first story is going, since I am new here I am not sure how good I am at fanfic writing yet, and feedback would definitely be appreciated. I hope to be updating once a week if not more frequently, but I will promise at least a chapter a week, and more if I write them more quickly.
Disclaimer: I am not Meg Cabot and do not own any of her lovely characters!
Wednesday, September 24, G&T
A new school year, a new me! Wow that sounded ridiculously cheesy….and not even remotely true. I am not going to start keeping an online journal to reinvent myself, only to appease my parents. Since I have been graced with two psychologists in that area, they want to make sure I am communicating my feelings somewhere since I won't talk to them about my life. So this beats having to have awkward conversations about girls with them I guess…oh who am I kidding, I am going nowhere with girls.
I mean obviously I wish I was, or at least going somewhere with a very specific girl. Though from the looks of it that is never going to happen. Just move on Moscovitz! Shockingly enough I have been telling myself to do that since sophomore year, and I still haven't been able to. Oh Mia…seriously if she knew I had a major crush on her she would probably be extremely freaked out since I am her sister's older brother, by three years! I probably look like such a creep to her and Lilly. That is why I hope they never find out and I can bear this aggravating love in silence. Wait did I just say love? Shit. Guess my crush has deepened a bit over the years. But enough about Mia, I totally have other things to talk about!
My kid sister just started high school with me this year, and boy hasn't that been a massive pain in my ass. And of course the administration considered her "gifted" because she runs her own television show so now I am stuck in a class with my freshman sister as well as with this virtuoso kid who will not stop with the violin. Despite being a massive dork though, he seems like an alright guy, just needs a guiding hand to teach him how to survive high school. Wow look at me, going all soft and mentor like my senior year. Maybe it is a new me!
Okay. I am going to stop embarrassing myself to…myself. I really need to get out there and start living a real high school life or something. Or just continue to watch Star Wars and Terminator movies all the time, maybe hang out with the Computer Club, or my favorite – walk around my house when Mia is over without a shirt on. Maybe one of these days the sight will cause her to leap into my arms and proclaim her love. Or not. But she does seem to enjoy the view since she always blushes and starts talking really fast whenever I do that. Score one for Michael Moscovitz! I am done now. Time to go introduce myself to the violin kid, see what his deal is.
Wednesday September 24, After School
So turns out the violin kid's name is Boris and he is extremely accomplished for his age, not to mention being quite smart. After talking to him in G&T I really like him, we could definitely be good friends. Having more musician friends is always good, especially if I do decide to start a band one day (if I ever decide to pursue that along with my academic studies). I am going to ignore the fact that he thought my sister was a dream come true, maybe his synapses were misfiring or something. At least he isn't planning on going after Mia, and if he wants to date Lilly, more power to him because it will take some nuclear materials and a very strong heart to put up with her levels of crazy. Anyways, Mia might stop by later on her way to the store for cat litter. She is such a dedicated pet owner, she loves Fat Louie as much as I love my dog Pavlov…just one of the many reasons I think she is the best, she really cares about her animal! Not that buying cat litter really shows that…but this one time Fat Louie swallowed a sock and you should have seen how concerned she was! She jumped into action right away to get him to the vet and then spent days worried about his health. It was really cute of her. Wow that was off topic. Maybe I have been neglecting to release my emotions lately and mom was right. Dammit I hate when my parents make better judgments than I do. At least now I have a place where I can talk and no one else can see or hear, it is quite comforting to know that no one will know my intensely weird secret.
Wednesday September 24, While Mia is here
Okay, so Mia just got here and I can hear her and Lilly talking in Lilly's room. Not like I am eavesdropping or anything, we just have thin walls and they have really loud voices! At least Lilly does. I don't know why I am justifying myself to a journal, but it feels like the right thing to do. Oh, they just started to talk about guys. Normally I wouldn't care a lick who Lilly was interested in, but I want to have hope for Boris, poor kid already seems besotted with her. And open conversation on? Ah. Josh Richter. Of course. I really hate that guy. I know he is my classmate but he is such a sleaze. I wish Mia had better taste (namely me) but really she could do much better than an asshole who mistreats everyone, not only his girlfriends. But in her opinion Josh Richter is much different (as if she even knows him).
Mia: "Josh and Lana were making out by my locker again today…why do I have to see them suck face every afternoon?"
Lilly: "Probably because they are the typical high school alpha male and female and feel the need to assert their sexual dominance in front of the rest of the pack, I mean school?"
Mia: "Lilly. Josh is more than just the typical high school alpha male. He is a super sensitive guy when he isn't around Lana! She is the evil one in this situation, Josh is obviously just really misunderstood."
Lilly: "Okay, now I know you have lost your mind. Let me remind you, Mia, that you have barely been around Josh when he was alone for less than two minutes ever in your life, let alone enough time to discover his true personality and the fact that he is misunderstood. You are confusing his sensitivity with his hotness. While I will admit he is quite gorgeous for a male coming from Albert Einstein that doesn't change the fact that he only shows behaviors of the so called "popular kids" and really doesn't have a thought in his brain."
(Hey she can speak for herself, I think I am quite good looking! Though I guess since I am her brother I don't count in the pool anyways. But she is right. Josh doesn't have a thought other than to get laid and get booze…How he is managing to get grades as good as mine I really do not understand.)
Mia: "But remember when we went into Bigelows and he was buying cologne! He looked right at me and said hi, staring into my eyes like he was looking into my soul. How could there not be a sweet sensitive guy hidden inside there?"
Lilly: "Because he probably had heat stroke and was confused. Face it Mia, Josh is not a smart choice of guy to be chasing after. You would be much better off dating someone who shares your interests, or could at least hold an interesting conversation. I highly doubt Josh Richter cares about saving the whales nearly as much as you do."
Mia: "Well I still think you are wrong, but while on the subject of boys who hold an interesting conversation…"
(Please say me, please say me, please say me. Wow I am seriously pathetic.)
Mia: "What interesting guys do you have your eyes on Lilly?"
Lilly: "As the freshman year has just started and we are in a new pool of classmates I do not feel qualified to make an opinion on that just yet. Though there may be one guy who hasn't completely repulsed me yet. Maybe there is a small amount of hope for the socio-economic class we are thrust into here at AEHS."
At this point Mia tried to get a name out of Lilly, but Lilly being Lilly refused to give it up. Just like my sister, to withhold information so she sounded more important. I wish she would have said Boris though, I want that dude to be happy, even if it is with my sister. Maybe then the violin music won't be so depressing in G&T.
At least I have finally found one thing about Mia to not like. Her interest in Josh Richter is somewhat sickening, and I really hope he never gets his claws into her. She is so pure and sweet and innocent, she does not need the likes of him invading her life. And of course I say that from a purely brotherly standpoint…oh who am I kidding myself? I am just jealous. Maybe if I try to go out with someone else this wouldn't be as much of a pathetic issue. Eh…I'd rather write a new song. I think I will go work on that now, and the best idea for a title just came to me! Tall Drink of Water and no it's not about Mia…mostly…okay it's probably going to be about Mia. But maybe song writing will help me get over her.
