Jade's POV

My stupid alarm clock woke me up at six o'clock in the morning. God I hate that sound so much it is annoying.

"TURN THAT THING OFF NOW BEFORE I BREAK IT OVER YOUR HEAD," yelled Ry at the top of her lungs, i cringed waiting for the sounds of my angry brothers and sisters waking up, but to my amazement no one actually woke up. How is that possible?

I ran down stairs and to the coffee maker and made 10 cups of coffee, I'm the only person in this house who drinks coffee, but trust me by the time I leave for school it will be all gone.

Then I run up stairs again and take a shower, by the time I got out and my hair and make up is done it is already 6:25, so I run to my room change grab my bag and run back down stairs to pour my cup of coffee and then go to my car.

I wait for awhile, but Stevie still hasn't come out. I pull out my cell phone to see it is already 6:40.

I run back inside and up the stairs grab a cold cup of water and walk to the side of Stevie's bed.

"WAKE UP STEVIE J GRANGER," I yell at the top of my lungs, while pouring the water over her head.

"WHAT THE HELL, WHY DID YOU DO THAT?" yelled Stevie, trying to get the water off her face.

"It's 6:40, you over slept, I had to wake up some how," I answered with a shrug, it wasn't that big of a deal I've done it before, but she was much more dramatic today.

"And 'Stevie wake up' wouldn't work," grumbled Stevie getting out of the bed and walking to her dresser.

"Well I figured since you couldn't shower now I would help you freshen up a bit."

"Your weird now go to the car I will be there in ten."

i ran down stairs and poured the remaining coffee in a huge thermos because i most likely won't be coming back inside and I walked to my car and waited, sure enough she was out within ten minutes. She didn't even shut her door yet and I was off speeding down the road, I'm surprised I haven't been pulled over but I really don't care we have to get to the school fast. I drive up to the free way but don't get very far; the traffic is moving very slowly, this is terrific.

After forty minutes of traffic and me yelling a Stevie we pulled up to her school at 7:40, ten minutes late when I'm normally ten minutes early. This is not going to be a good morning.

I rush back home to pick up the next car load of kids and start to drop them off, thanking God that I decided to make Carson, Avery, Lily, and May walk to the bus stop so at least they won't be late.

I got Will to school a couple of minutes after the bell rang but Will's bag wasn't fully packed, you know for a genius he can sometimes be rather stupid, "Will run as fast as you can, tell the teacher that you are sorry we had a bad morning, and please make friends, actually talk to people, love you now go," I said as he was finishing packing the car and getting out. I saw him enter the gates of the school and took off. Two schools down three to go.

As I was coming up to the school I reminded Jim and Brett to make sure their bags were ready so they wouldn't have to do what Will had to do. And to my surprise when we pulled up the bell hadn't rang yet so they would make it on time, "Bye, be good love you." God I am starting to sound like their actual mother, i need to stop that.

Now to the pre-school, when we pulled up I had to park the car and get out this time because I had to actually bring these two in. I grabbed their hands and walked into the small school and towards Ms. Wood's room, their teacher for the year. As I was walking down the halls I saw just about every room except Ms. Woods. Ms. Magic, Ms. Apple, Ms. Rainbow, wow these pre-school teachers have very cheesy names. Finally I came to the correct room, when I walked into the room there was a bunch of screaming children running around the room, thank goodness Seirra and Noah aren't like that I think I would go crazy at home.

When I found Ms. Woods she was talking to a huge group of parents, don't they have work or something, "Hi Ms. Woods I am so sorry I had to interrupt," not really, " but I have to get to school, so these two are Noah and Seirra, and I will be by after school to pick the up, if you need anything they both know my number," I quickly rushed out what I say every time I bring one of my brothers or sisters to a new school and started to leave until. . .

"Jadey, don't leave," cried Seirra, tears running down her face. Great should have know one of them would stop me.

"I have to get to school, Noah will be here the whole time and I will be by after school," I said in a rush, I didn't want to leave her while she was crying but I had to get the others to school.

"Promise," whined Seirra, holding out her pinky for me to grab with mine.

"Promise," I replied hooking our pinkies together. Jade West doesn't do pinky promises for just anyone, only Seirra, Lilac, Noah and Molly, but don't tell anyone it will ruin my rep at school.

I immediately ran out of the room and to the car, turned on the car and its 8:25, great school starts and 8:30. I sped to my house and honked the horn and six teenage girls came running out of the house holding their school bags and various instruments and art supplies.

"What took you so long," complained Junette.

"Everything."

When I started to pull out of the alley I heard a little voice crying wait and two little blonde three year olds running out of the house in their pajamas. Oh yeah I was supposed to find a babysitter, great now what am I supposed to do.

"Jessica, open the car door and buckle them in," when the door was open fully Lilac and Molly climbed in and got in their booster seats, I really need to stop bringing those things everywhere with me one of these days someone will see. I sped off down the road to Hollywood Arts guess they get to come to class with me today.

We all walked though the doors to the school and the hallways were deserted. When we walked passed my scissor locker I open it really quick and put in my thermos of coffee, and then I took them all to Lane's office to grab our schedules.

"Hey Lane, sorry we're late one of my sisters over slept," I said as we walked through the door. Only two people in the whole school know I'm in the foster system, Lane and Principal Ikner. I didn't want them to know but it's kind of hard to hide when your parents look absolutely nothing like you, and you don't have the same last name.

"It's no problem," he said as he turned in his chair rubbing his hands, he probably just put on lotion, he has an obsession with that stuff.

"So here are all of you schedules," he announced, handing them out, "and who are these to little ones," he questioned looking down at Molly and Lilac.

"Two of my sisters, I forgot to get them a babysitter yesterday. Can I take them to class?"

"No, I will watch them it's no problem."

"Are you sure?" I questioned, he nodded his head yes so I continued, "Molly doesn't talk, but she likes playing the piano so maybe you can take her to the black box to play and Lilac has asthma so watch her for that and loves to hear stories, so maybe tell her one."

"Ok no problem, go to class. All of you have Sikowitz first so hurry."

So we all started to class, and my favorite teacher, most of the time.

Cat's POV

It's 8:58, and school starts in two minutes. I can't believe I'm a senior already. Everyone is here except my best friend in the whole entire world, Jade. She didn't come to the beach yesterday either and I was sad because I wanted to make a sand castle with her. Tori offered to make it with me instead, but it wasn't as fun.

We all have Sikowitz first period together again; well maybe not Jade we don't know that yet. I hope she's ok, I really miss her.

The bell rang, "Yeah school!" I shouted, but everyone else groaned, I don't know why, do they not like school?

When we got in the room we all grabbed seats together, I saved a seat for Jade between me and Beck. Then Sikowitz climbed through the window like always, holding a coconut. I like coconuts and mushrooms, but Tori yelled at me last year in Yerba when I said I liked mushrooms, so I guess I'm not supposed to like them, but there so good.

It's been ten minutes of Sikowitz talking about random stuff and Jade still hasn't come.

Then I heard a noise in the back of the room and the door opened, Jade was there with six other girls I don't know, a ball suddenly whizzed by and hit Jade in the face.

"OW SIKOWITZ, WHY DID YOU DO THAT?" Jade yelled, the girls behind her were laughing, that's not very nice she just said ow that means it hurt and they just laugh!

"You came in late, don't come in late and you won't get hit with the ball."

"I was in Lane's office, and I have an excused tardiness," Jade complained rubbing her cheek.

"Oh why didn't you say so?"

"The ball was already coming my way."

"Who are the people behind you," Tori decided to ask, probably trying to save Sikowitz from being pounced on by Jade, she looked mad.

"What's it to you?" asked on of the girls, she had auburn hair with black highlights, electric blue eyes, pale skin, and she dressed a lot like Jade, but she looked scary.

Jade gave the girl a glare, probably trying to get her to be nicer, people don't think Jade is nice but she is always nice to me, "My mom's friends kids, they just got excepted this year," Jade explained, while walking over to the chair I saved for her, sitting down and putting her legs on Beck's lap.

"New students come up here and tell us a little about you.

All six girls walked to the front of the room and stood in a line, the girl that looked like Jade went first.

"Hey, my name is Ryan; you don't need to know my last name because I most likely I won't like you. I'm a junior and I act, sing, dance, write, and play drums and guitar. I hate ducks, the sun, lullabies, October, mustard, babies, dogs, allergies, pink, people who wear pink," I think she would have went on for a long time but Jade cut her off.

"Basically whatever I don't like she doesn't like," Jade announced.

"Oh God, Jade did you clone yourself?" asked Tori, and Jade turned around and shot her a glare.

Ryan walked off the stage and came over and sat beside me, I got scared for a moment because she seemed a lot scarier then Jade, but then I remembered my friends would protect me, especially Jade and Beck.

Then next girl who went had red hair with a black headband on, and navy blue eyes, "Hi, my name is Junette Harris; I'm a junior and I act. I hate when people, mostly Ryan, tells ginger jokes, so please don't tell them."

She finished and walked of the stage and walked over to where Trina was sitting.

"Hey my name is Marie Greene," announced the next girl, I've heard that name before but I can't remember where, I don't know, but she has black hair that goes to her waist with gold red and silver streaks it, with a pretty gold tiara on top of her head, "I'm a junior and I dance, sing, act, write, and I play piano, flute, bass, and drums. I drive a red motorcycle that someone, Jade, wouldn't let me drive to school today."

"It's not my fault, complain to your mom about it," Jade replied with a smirk.

"Whatever," and with that she walked off the stage and walked towards the seat next to Beck, sticking her tounge out at Jade on her way by, and Jade just stuck her tounge out back and I giggled.

"Hey I'm Peyton Hills and yes my parents were Brady Hills and Kate Hills and yes they were murdered and no I don't want to talk about them, so don't under any circumstances bring it up. I'm a junior and I act and play the piano. Everything Jade doesn't like I don't, that's it," announced a really pretty girl with light brown hair and hazel eyes, she came walking towards Jade again, but took the seat right in front of her.

The second to last girl on stage had long dark brown hair and green eyes, "Hi my name is Milicent Kale, but most people call me Millie. I'm a junior and I love to play any instrument," just like Andre, they will get along really good, but when she walked off the stage she walked over to Trina and Junette. That's weird why didn't they sit with us, do they not like us, that's rude because they don't even know us.

The last girl on stage was dressed just like Avril Lavigne only she had bright red hair and green eyes, "Hey I'm Jessica Roads and I'm a sophomore. I love playing drums and acting. That's it really." She finished and walked off the stage and took a seat beside Peyton.

I wonder if all these girls are Jade's friends, I mean most of them walked over to her. Does she like them more than she likes me? Was that where she was yesterday? Am I going to lose my best friend? I decided that's not possible and turned back to listen to Sikowitz.

The next few classes passed by in a flash and soon it was already lunch time. I didn't have any other classes with the new girls because I was older than them and Sikowitz's class was for all grade levels, so I didn't get to talk to them.

We all went out to the asphalt café, but then remembered that since there were so many more people we wouldn't all fit so we decided to go the black box from now on.

On the way there we heard a noise coming from the room, it sounded really pretty like a lullaby. I like lullabies they make me sleepy. There so soft and make you so warm inside and wait Cat concentrate what were you thinking. Oh right the sound in the black box. So the sound was really pretty so we went to see what it was.

On the stage was Lane, and a little girl with short dirty blonde hair dancing around the stage, probably trying to be a ballerina, and behind the piano was another little girl with short blonde hair playing the piano.

Jade's POV

Shoot, my secret will diffidently come out now. Maybe I can sneak out before either one of them notice me. I slowly started backing out of the room closing my eyes as if; if I couldn't see them they can't see me. I was almost out of the door when

"JADEY," yelled a little voice, I opened my eyes and two little blondes were running at me and hooked their thin arms around my legs. I looked up and my sisters were glaring at me and my friends looked extremely confused.

Please review, alert, and favorite! Tell me what you think!

I'm leaving for Vegas tomorrow for a couple of days so i won't be able to update but i will be at the pool most of the time so I will be able to write.
