Chapter 1

It was a late Florida afternoon and Ellie Nash was walking home from a long day at school. This morning, when she was at breakfast, her parents said they had big news to tell her when she gets home. She was wondering what could this "big" news be about. I guess I'll soon find out she thought.

When she got home, she was surprised to see that her mom was sober. Wow, she thought. This must be some pretty important news if her mom was actually up being a mom for once. This made her more curious to find out what the news was. Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait until dinner to when both of my parents will be here to hear what it is, she thought. '

After greeting her mom hello she grabbed a snack and headed to her room to do the large amount of homework she had gotten assigned throughout the day. It wasn't until 5 o'clock that she came out of her room, homework finished and all for dinner.

When she walked to the living room she saw her father, Colonel Nash. He had been in the army for as long as Ellie could remember. She walked up and hugged and kissed him.

"Hi Daddy," she said. "How was your day?"

"Fine," he replied, "How was yours?"

"Fine," Ellie said. "Had to stay afterschool to make up an english test which I know I did well on but other than that it went well."

When all was silent, Ellie heard her mom called "Dinner's ready!"

"Okay," both she and her dad replied.

Tonight, Ellie and her family enjoyed their family time together since it was rare that her dad could come home for it.

Halfway through dinner her parents told her they had an announcement to make. Okay, so this was it. She was finally going to find out what this "big" news was. Her father opened his mouth but then closed it as if he was worried to tell her. Her mother then proceeded to speak instead.

"Ellie," she said. "This morning I told you that there was something your father wanted to tell you, well..." she said while grabbing her husband's hand as if to give him courage to speak. So with an encouraging smile and squeeze to his wife's hand, he proceeded to speak.

While all of this was happening, Ellie was getting worried. How big was this news? What could be so bad about it that her father needed the support of her mother just to tell her it, she thought.

"Ellie, honey," Colonial Nash said "I got some good news... I got a better job within the army. One that lets me come home more."

Ellie smiled happily and interrupted him when he was about to finish the most important part. "What?" she exclaimed. "That's great! I'll get to see you more!"

"But," her father said.

Ellie's smile faltered. "But what?" she asked.

"In order for me to do this job, I've been relocated," her father said finally after a long sigh.

Ellie's face fell. No she thought. No, not again. Moving again, no. How could they do this to her?

"What?" she shouted angrily. "No! I don't wanna move! This is the longest we've stayed in one place. Please don't make me pick up and move again, please."

She begged but her dad proceeded apologize and told her what a great opportunity it was for the whole family. But Ellie didn't want to hear it and ran to her room not acknowledging her parents' calls to her.

She was doing it again. Great, just great.

Hope you enjoyed the first chapter! Please review! We accept ALL criticism. Thanks!
