A/N: Hello all! This second intro will be on the Cabbie family! Sorry for not updating in so long!
Disclaimer: I own nothing except for my OC Emma.
"Emma! Emma, come look what you got!" Cat Shapiro screamed to her fourteen-year-old daughter. Emma Jane Shapiro bounced happily into the room, her curls bouncing from side to side. She smiled widely, exposing a single dimple on her left cheek. It was a normal, hot day in Los Angeles, so she wore a simple, pink T-shirt with faded blue shorts.
"What is it? Is that a letter? What does it say? Um, congratulations… Hollywood Arts…" she gasped. "I got accepted? Yay! I got in Hollywood Arts! Best day ever!" She would have continued if her fifteen-year-old sister Roxanne hadn't walked in.
"What's with the screaming?" she asked. Roxanne (she preferred to be called 'Roxy') Kandy Shapiro was the second child of the Shapiro family. She was, in most people's views, attractive. Her dark brown hair went just past her shoulder blades and she had a curvy build. Her eyes were a very kind light brown and her skin was somewhat tan. Standing at 5'8, she was significantly taller than her sister. And just like Emma, she was very simple with her clothes. Mainly she just wore a T-shirt and jean shorts. She actually hated clothes that revealed too much skin.
She, like her older brother, already went to Hollywood Arts. She got in by performing a dance routine, but she was passionate about acting as well. Because of her talent, she somehow got into the popular crowd. The only problem is that she doesn't know it yet. She tries to be modest, but it doesn't work, what with all the plays she's been in. And for being so popular around the school, she's no stranger to the boys. Many ask her out, sometimes more than three a day. But she gets really shy with them and mostly she isn't interested. Especially with the hot guys. For some reason, she really likes the unpopular average guys better.
At most times, Roxy is a real sweetheart. She's kind, caring, and a very loyal friend. She loves her family to pieces and wouldn't even think of giving them up for anything. She thinks her dad is overprotective, but she doesn't blame him. Her mother can be a bit of an embarrassment, but she loves her anyway. She just doesn't show it much.
"Roxy," Cat started. "Your sister just got into Hollywood Arts! She'll be going to school with you and Riley!"
"Oh cool!" Roxy exclaimed. "That means we're all in the same school! Congrats sis!"
"Thanks," Emma smiled. "Oh! Where's Riley? RILEY! RILEY! GUESS WHAT?"
There was a sound of rushed steps, then Riley James Shapiro, the first and only Shapiro son, came tumbling down. His long, brownish chestnut hair swung in front of his deep brown eyes and thick eyebrows. The seventeen-year-old pushed it back with frustration and eyed his family.
"What is it? Who died?" he asked. His buttoned down shirt was wrinkled and actually missing a couple buttons. His dark wash jeans were slightly frayed. The only thing in place with his appearance was the wooden cross around his neck.
Riley was six foot one and completely towered over Emma and made Roxy look small. He was slender and basically a 'pretty boy' at school. Though once you get to know him, he can be a crazy freak, which makes him fun to hang out with. He could be annoying to some people because of his short attention span of three minutes and his inability to follow even the simplest of directions.
Riley can be serious if he has to be. If anyone hurts his friends or his family, he won't be afraid to break some bones. He'd happily do it, in fact.
Riley very much enjoys singing and playing the bass guitar. He made it in Hollywood Arts by singing a song while laying the tune on his guitar that he cherishes.
"No one died silly!" Roxy exclaimed.
"I got into Hollywood Arts!" Emma yelled.
"Sweetie," Cat spoke. "Could you drive her to school every day? I mean, you are going to the same place."
"Sure mama," Riley walked up to his mother and kissed the side of her head. He may not look like it, but Riley was a total momma's boy. His favorite thing of all time was his mother's hugs.
"Thanks. Oh, I'm so excited! My babies are all going to be stars!" Cat put her hands to her mouth and started tearing up. "My children are growing up so fast!"
At this moment, Robbie Shapiro came out from his home office and slid in the room to join his family.
"I hear a little someone has just been accepted into the best school in the entire universe," he said with excitement. Emma raised her hand and bounced up and down.
"Congratulations kiddo! You know, that's where your mother and I met." He crossed over to the other side of the room and put his arm around his wife. Cat giggled.
"Dad," Riley sighed. "You don't need to tell us about that." Riley had a very strange relationship with his father. Robbie always wanted Riley to get into puppets and all that weird stuff. But to be perfectly honest, Riley hated puppets. They freaked him out. Robbie and Riley mainly disagree on nearly everything.
"Well it's true," he laughed.
"Eeek! I'm so excited!" Emma cheered. "I get to go to school with you guys and other talented people!"
"Cause you're a talented people too," Riley joked with his sister. Roxy laughed and gave her brother a random hug. Riley loved his sisters so much. He wouldn't let anybody hurt either of them because that's just how he roles.
Emma smiled widely and jumped some more. "Yay! I'm a talented people!"
A/N: Weird way to end the chapter, I get it. But I wanted to update today. If anybody thinks I messed something up with their OC, just tell me. But please don't be mean about it! I'll try to update soon!
