Eight Years Later

"Good Morning, Peyton! Are you excited for your first day as a junior?" my mom, Aletta, said. I don't exactly know how I'm her daughter. She had olive skin, and dark brown hair. Her eyes are dark brown, and she's Italian. My dad's name is Mateo, he's got black hair, and hazel skin. His eyes are light brown, and he's Hispanic. I've got blonde hair, and bright emerald green eyes. My skin is always a perfect beach tan.

"I'm super excited! I can't wait to see Alexa and Breanna!" I said. Alexa and Breanna are my best friends. Alexa's got black hair, and bluebell eyes, and Breanna's got brown hair, with rainbow highlights, and brown eyes. They have a strange theory that I was kidnapped when I was a baby, and sent to live with a new family.

I quickly ate my breakfast, and went into my room to pick out my outfit for the day. I picked a green to blue ombre top, and a pair of light blue capris. I shoved on a pair of black converse, threw my hair into a ponytail, and grabbed my bag. The doorbell rang, so I grabbed a piece of my favorite ribbon, and tied it in my hair while getting into Bree's car.

"Oh my gosh! Girl you won't believe what happened while you were in New York this summer!" Lexi said, as soon as I was seated.

"Let me guess. Drake is cheating on me with Claire?" I said, although I wasn't expecting to be right!

"No way!" Bree said, "How did you know!"

"I knew I should never have started dating that no good, dirty, rotten-" I said, but then Lexi cut me off.

"Okay, we get it, you don't like him. You're breaking up with him today, right?" She said.

"I broke up with him this summer. Over text." I said, suddenly very proud of myself.

"Ooh, somebody's savage!" Bree said. She pulled into an open space in the school's parking lot. It's amazing how fast time flies when you're catching up with your bestie's after not seeing them for two months. We were walking in, when I caught someone's eye. It was a kid I'd never seen before, but, still, it felt like I knew him from somewhere. He had sandy blonde hair, and his skin was almost olive. He had eyes that were a brighter blue than Alexa's.

"Jared?" I whispered under my breathe. I was unsure why I'd said that, but then the moment was ruined because Bree and Lexi had noticed I was no longer walking with them.

"Girl, what's up, you seem totally out of it!" Lexi said.

"Would you girls mind helping me with something really quickly?" I said.

"Sure!" they both said enthusiastically. I led them over to the group of kids that the 'Jared' boy was with.

"Hi!" I said, "Are you guys new here?"

"Yeah, would you mind, maybe, showing us around?" said a boy with the same hair, and eye color as mine.

"Sure thing! I'm Peyton Johnson, by the way." I said. The boy who had spoken was named Parker Jackson. The rest of the kids were all twins. There were two boys with blonde hair and an almost olive skin tone. They both had bright blue eyes. There names were Jared and Jaden Grace. The Zhang twins, Ruby and Sammy, had dark brown hair, and a medium brown skin tone. Their eyes were a mix between brown and gold. May and Zoë Castellan had light brown hair, and extremely pale skin. They had blue eyes, and were Jared and Jaden's cousins. Last, there was Carter and Esperanza Valdez. They both had an almost golden color to their hair, and they had perfectly tan skin. They had, very bright, brown eyes that perfectly complimented their hair, and skin.

"Hi, I'm Lexi!" Lexi said.

"What's up, my name's, Bree!" Bree said.

"What classes do you have" I asked Parker. He had all AP classes, ranging from AP Physics, to AP English. The only thing he didn't have AP was his elective, building design.

"I've got AP Physics with you first!" Bree exclaimed. I could tell the moment she saw him, she was in love. The others had first with either me, or Lexi, so when the bell rang they headed off with us. It was really awkward, seeing as how they were all dating each other. Jared seemed to be the only one in the group without a significant other. When I asked him about it all he said was, 'My heart belongs to another.'

Sorry! That's all for today! I've been having trouble coming up with a second chapter, so I'm sorry it's so short! I would love it if you would leave ideas for the next chapter in the comments! I hope I will be able to get over this writer's block and be able to have more frequent posts! This is also my first time posting something like this! I usually just write for fun, so I really hope you like it! Also here is a list of who's dating who!

Jaden and Esperanza

Parker and Zoë (much to Bree's despair)

Sammy and May

Carter and Ruby

Jared will have a love interest eventually, but you will have to wait a little while for that!
