Chapter 1: CeCe

Its just the begining.

"Mom I promise that when we land in California that I will put on sun screen." CeCe groaned at her mothers annoying bickering. "Rocky is waiting for me down in the taxi."

"Okay CeCe but remember when you get on the plane to buckle your seatbelt."

"Okay but can I ask why you won't get us a limo, since we will be gone for four years." CeCe tried to beg her mom at the last minute for a better ride then some stinky cab driver.

"CeCe its already time for you to go, plus if we get you and Rocky a limo now you'll miss your plane." Her mom resorted to her daughter's complaining. When her and CeCe got downstairs everybody was ready for them to go. "Okay everybody its time for the girls to leave."

CeCe looked around at all the people she may never see again, sure she was happy that she was getting her big chance, well other than Shake It Up Chicago, but that wasn't going anywhere.

When she and Rocky got in the cab, of course after leaving teary mother, sad brothers and fathers who were trying not to cry. CeCe looked back at everyone and gave one last wave goodbye. When they drove off CeCe looked at her bestfriend with a sad expression.

"Rocky i'm really going to miss everybody." I looked at Rocky and she was on her new laptop her parents just bought her. She looked back up at me.

"Of course CeCe, they are our family, but then its a new adventure and you never know what's out there for us." I smiled at her.

"Thanks Rocky."

"Your welcome CeCe, now look at the school's website its so beautiful."

"What part?" I asked

"The science lab!" She squealed with joy. Really? The science lab.

"Ummm Rocky you do know the only reason we got in this school was because of dance, right?" I really hope she got this right.

"I know that its just tha-"

"ALRIGHT LADIES OUT OF THE CAB WERE AT THE AIRPORT!" We grab our bags and ran out, since we didn't want to waste our california money on him. "HEY COME BACK HERE!"

We laugh at that old pathetic man, we agreed last night that we aren't going to be paying for anything in Chicago for a long time. "Okay CeCe now all we have to do is let them check our tickets and see how long we have to wait."

When we walk up to the lady at the desk and give her our tickets she looks all suprised. "Is there something wrong miss?" Rocky asked a little worried.

"Oh no ladies it's just that you are the last two to get first class tickets." FIRST CLASS.

"Wait wait wait, are you sure that's right?" Rocky looked panic.

"Rocky of course it's right, our parents did buy the tickets, they must of been the ones to get the first class." I resorted back to her. Thanks mom but you couldn't cut just a little extra for a nicer ride, oh well there are good things and bad things.

"Well since you lucky young ladies are in first class you get to wait the exculcive lounge with the other passengers in that department." We squealed and raced over to the better part of the airport.

When we got in there it looked so classy and elegant. "Wow CeCe look at it in here." Rocky was just smiling with joy when I looked over at her.

"I know Rocky we should totally ride this way all the time." I told her back.

"Yeah but without the rude cab driver." I nodded. We sat in there for about twenty minutes before we heard our plane being called, we even got to leave before everyone else.

"CeCe stop taking pleasure in other people's misfortune." Rocky scolded me.

"I'm not, i'm just taking pleasure in my fortune, now Rocky let me enjoy by taking a nap and can you wake me up when they ask what we want for lunch." I didn't let her her finsh because I sliped on my sleeping mask and naped away.


"CeCe wake up."

"Is it time for lunch." I asked all sleepy like. She punched me in my arm after that. It didn't hurt.

"Ouch! Why did you do that." Well I have to put on a show.

"Were in California." She squealed. We are?

"Wait so I missed lunch." She looked at me like something was wrong. Well DUH! Of course something is wrong I missed lunch.

"Really CeCe. Lunch, well if you look outside you will see that this more important than food." She didn't give me a chance to speak before she pulled me over to the window to see a view of a life time. "See CeCe I told you it was amazing." I just couldn't say anything, I was speechless.

"We are now landing in Hollywood, California."

"Were here Rocky, were finally here.''


We pulled up to the school in another cab. But this time with a nicer driver who we paid this time. This place looks amazing.

"Man Rocky why is this school so much more prettier than our old one?"

"Maybe because this is a high class performance school."

"Then how did we get in a high class school, performance I got though." Rocky sighed and shook her head at me, that's when a older girl came up to us.

"Hi my name is Rachel Taylor, i'm one of the senior's here, are you two new?" Wow she was pretty.

"Thanks, my name is Rocky and this is my bestfriend CeCe, were freshmen." Rocky was awe.

"Rocky calm down, gosh we just got to this school and your already preasuring the senior's." Rachel laughed at us.

"You two are so funny, you both act just like my two best friends, Samantha Grace and Chelsea Malei." Rachel said.

"Really?" We said in unison. She nodded back at us and told us to follow her, first she took us to the girl freshmen dorms. When we got to ours they had three beds and a bathroom, the third bed already stuff on it but there wasn't anyone in the dorm.

"Your third roomate must not be here, also she will be your roomate up to your senior year." Rachel explained to us.

"Thanks Rachel that's really helpful advice." Rocky said taking in the older girl's words as god giving wisdom.

"Oh please, its okay if you just call me Raven, we'll be seeing alot of each other around school and I don't think you will like calling me by my first name." Raven smirked at Rocky. "Now if you are all settled in we look around the school some more or you can just stay in your dorm and chill."

"Oh no we would love to see the school, right CeCe?" Rocky and Raven then looked at me, why not.

"Sure I don't mind." I shrugged and walked along with them out of the dorm building, when we do though we see students everywhere, it was so cool they hand suitcases and the older kids had cars. There were even a few limo's.

"Cool." We said in unison again, but this time with more awe.

"So I see you like it, come on lets walk on some more and look around more." But before we can go another step two girls came running over to us dragging two other girls who looked about our age.

"Hey Rae look at the girls we have to show around." a girl that had dark brown curly hair and with light brown high lights and drak blue eyes said.

"Chels I was kinda busy, but since you are already here I want to introduce you to CeCe and Rocky, you guys this was the girl I was talking about earlier this is Chelsea Malei and the other girl over here is Samantha Grace." We both looked over to a girl with med-way wavy light brown hair and grey eyes. Me, Rocky, and Raven then looked over to the other two younger girls. "Umm who are they?" Raven asked confused, the girls didn't seem to mind though.

"Oh these two ladies are Jesselyn Oliver and Emaline Quimby." Samantha explained to us, both girls waved at us. "We were also wondering since we got everybody who we are showing around we thought we do it together."

"Sure I haven't show CeCe and Rocky around yet." I really hate the idea that we all join together because Raven and her two friends were talking about other seniors and what's happening this year. Its not that I don't like the girls but I don't wnt to lost around the school for the week.

I couldn't take it anymore and just walked off, shouldn't have done that now I was lost. "Man my first day here and i'm already going to be lost."

"Are you talking to yourself?" I turned around to see a guy with short black hair and hazel eyes, he looked a bit older than me.

"What! No! Ummm I mean that i'm just lost." My god this was embarssing.

"Where do you need to go." I thought that that was my chance and get a better look at him, when I did I saw that he had a black truck, like a pick up truck but bigger and better looking. He was taking his suitcases out and he had a guitar with him.

"Everywhere." He still had a straight face on.

"Okay, how come you don't have a junior or senior with you?" Think, think.

"She got food poisoning."

"Okay, well that's to bad but I can't show you around I need to go to my dorm and meet up with some friends, later... uh."

"CeCe." He smirked at me.

"Cool name the name's Zakk." After that he walked into the boys sophomore dorms.

"CeCe come on!" I turned around to see Rocky and the rest of the girls waiting for me, Raven and her two friends were smirking at me, and Jesselyn and Emaline were laughing but Rocky just looked annoyed.

"Sorry you guys!" I ran over to them and we finshed the rest of the tour.


We finally got to our dorm after eating dinner with Raven, Chelsea, Samantha, Jesselyn, Emaline, and all their friends encluding all the new freshmen we met toady, Rocky's cousin was here too, her name waas Rachel to but everyone called her Rach. Raven's brother was their to, his name Sean, he was friends with Zakk and some other guys named Giovanni, we also met our roomate there, she was friends Emaline, her name was Amisha Kapoor.

So now me, Rocky, and Amisha were going to our dorm, and Amisha was telling us about herself and how she got into the school.

All in all it was a pretty good day so far.
