One second I was cuddling up in with my blankets and the next they're being ripped off me and the sunlight is blinding me. I groaned and turned over reluctantly expecting to see Grant. Instead I was greeted by the devil herself. My Mother.
"Rise and shine Cam, today's the day you start packing." She said before handing me my usual Saturday morning caffeine fix from Starbucks. I took it and smiled at her gratefully. That was before they came in. "Boys you can bring them in now!" she yelled. Then a lot of men came in with many boxes and crates I guess I would need a lot of them for all my stuff to fit. I sighed and got up which was a bad decision. I immediately sat up due to a head rush."Oh yeah here's some Advil for your headache" she fiddled in her Lacoste jacket before producing 2 Advil pills.
"How kind of you" I say sarcastically. She frowns then leaves and the men follow quickly after. I sigh then take the pills and change out of my pajamas. I change into my favorite juicy couture sweats since I don't plan on going anywhere. I don't even bother seeing what Grant is up to I just set to work on packing.
The next week of my life is hell. It's so hard packing all my stuff up and basically saying goodbye to the only home I've ever known. (A.N I would know I've moved a lot) I actually tear up a couple of times. Macey comes over the day before we're supposed to leave. She's spending the night we decided to get there a two weeks before school starts to "get to know the people and the area" as mom puts it.
The morning of the move arrives too quickly for my liking and moving vans are loading our stuff into 3 separate vans. I decided to wear my favorite beach sundress with plain gold sandalsand curl my hair (A.N pic at my profile) my mom is driving us there while some chauffeurs are driving our cars there for us. As I climb into our family car I can't tear my gaze away from our house which I won't see until Christmas break probably. To distract myself from crying I take out my IPod and put it on shuffle.
The car starts moving and all the familiar childhood places and their memories start flooding through me. The park where Grant would always push me on the swing, the ice cream place where everyone who is anyone always hangs out and my favorite the bowling arcade place where countless people used to have their birthday parties. I look out the window and see we're about to pass the beach. I gasp and tell my mom to pull over. I guess she thought something was wrong because she obliges. I rummage through my bag and find an Evian water bottle. I grab it and run out to the beach. It's not very crowded because it's still morning so I squat down and pour out the remains of the water bottle. I run over to where the tide is and scoop the sand and water into the bottle until it is nearly full.
There I think a piece of home with me always. I close the cap and walk back to the car slowly taking in my home. When I get to the car I show them the bottle and receive several eye rolls. Figures that they wouldn't understand. My mom informs us that it will take a couple of hours to get there. Macey pulls out her laptop and starts typing away while Grant settles down for a nap. I go back to my IPod which switches to the song Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson.
Grew up in a small town not really true
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
Trying hard to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me I did feel ignored and invisible sometimes
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I'd pray
I could breakaway
[Chorus]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chanceI will give Roseville a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved I'll never forget Ryan and Allison
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
[Verse 2]
Wanna feel the warm breeze I always used to here
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on an jet plane, far away (I will pray)
And breakaway
[Chorus]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
I won't forget all the ones that I loved
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
[Bridge]
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging with revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway
[Last Chorus (Different From Others)]
I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway, breakaway, breakaway
I fell asleep listening to my IPod. I was roughly shaken awake by none other than Grant."Hey Cam we're here wake up". That got me up pretty fast this place was nothing like Stony Creek. It seemed less sunny and kind of boring. OH I bet we'd change that, just then we pulled up to a beautiful mansion. It literally looked like a mini white house. Definitely big enough for 4 people heck we would be having a couple of parties here. (A.N please please look at profile pics this is my dream house). When we pulled up I quickly ran inside and picked the biggest room it was plain but I would accessorize it. There was a big vanity in the center and a bathroom in the corner and a huge oak wood bed in the middle.
Macey got the room on my right and Grant on my left. Since we got here early it was the afternoon here now, so we decided to explore the area. We quickly found our way to the garage and decided to take Grant's Lamborghini. He parked near a diner where a lot of people seemed to be at and decided to look around.
"I'm hungry let's get some ice cream" I whined. Grant laughed but agreed but sighed but didn't protest. Although she probably wouldn't eat. We walked into the diner called "Abrams Diner". I went up to the counter and asked"Excuse me do you sell ice cream here?"The old lady looked up from the cash register and answered "Oh no, but our dessert menu has specials" she said handing us a menu.
"Oh I see something special, I wonder if she's on the menu?" came a deep voice from behind me. I knew it wasn't Macey or Grant even. It was probably some local I thought but I cautiously turned around. And when I did I saw . . . possibly the hottest boy ever. This boy could give Ryan a run for his money. He had brown hair and deep emerald green eyes oh and his body was perfect I could tell he probably had a 6 pack of abs. definitely played football. Except I don't think the comment came from him he was with a friend who made the comment. I turned my attention to the boy next to him who was a couple of inches shorter with sandy blond colored hair and blue colored eyes, he had an ok body but I preferred to look at the brunette.
I realized we were just standing there so I decided to introduce myself."Uh hey, I'm Cammie, this is my brother Grant and my best friend Macey" I say politely while shaking their hands."I'm Josh and this is Zach" says the blond. "Cool well we just moved here today so we should go unpack we'll probably see you around before school starts" Macey says."Yeah here's my number maybe we could show you around sometime" Zach says before flashing me a smirk. Even though he's talking to all of us he's staring at me. Grant fake coughs on purpose and I quickly take the paper and head back to the car. Hmmm. . . I might give him a chance if his friend lays off the flirting.
A.N feel free to suggest anything, I'll try to update soon maybe this weekend!
