Dawn's POV

"Dawn time to wake up," Dawn's mother said shaking my sleeping body lightly.

I opened my sapphire blue eyes and looked up at my mother. I sighed and rose up placing my bare feet on the floor.

"I'm up," I said obviously still sleepy.

My mother nodded her head and walked down the stairs to cook breakfast. I walked slowly to my closet to get my outfit for the first day of school. I then walked to the bathroom door, opened it, then entered closing the door behind me.

First day of school. Let's see how it goes, I thought.

~Thirty minutes later~

I walked out fully dressed with a towel wrapped around her blue locks. I checked myself in the mirror. I wore a pair of ripped jeans, a white short sleeve shirt with a denim vest over it, and little black zip-up boots.

I walked over to my floor length mirror and unwrapped the towel from my blue locks. I ran a black brush through my hair and slid a white headband into my hair.

I skipped happily down the stairs, showing that I was now well awake. I sat down at the table and waited for my breakfast.

"Here you go Dawn," my mother said placing my favorite breakfast before me.

The white glass plate held oran berry pancakes. My mother also placed a glass filled with orange juice. I happily ate her food in a time period of fifteen minutes.

"Well mom I gotta get going. I have to catch the bus. Don't forget to send my stuff for my room to the campus," I said dashing up the stairs to get her bag and other necessities.

I grabbed a one-shoulder bag that was black and slid it over my head. I the dashed down the stairs two at a time nearly falling at the last second.

"Love you!" I shouted running out the door and slamming it shut.

Well goodbye living with mom; hello living on campus again, I thought.

May's POV

Beeeeeep!

I groaned and slammed my hand on the off button on my alarm clock.

Ugh school why did it have to come? I don't wanna go. Hmm maybe a few more minutes of sleep won't hurt, I thought.

I made an attempt to return to sleep but failed to do so. It was all good until I heard the running of feet down the wooden hall.

"I got the bathroom! YES!" my annoying little brother's voice rang.

I shot up and ran to my door and opened it quickly. I looked down the hall toward the bathroom and saw the door closed, as well as heard the sound of running water.

"UGH!" I cried closing my door.

I walked to my closet and pulled out my outfit for today. My outfit consisted of a red shoulder-showing shirt, gray jeans, and red sneakers. I was also adding some shining ruby earrings and the necklace that was styled for a guy with an emerald in it. I smiled and looked at the necklace that I have worn every single day since the day it was given to me.

I grabbed the outfit and walked toward the bathroom door. I kicked it since my hands were full.

"Hurry up Max before you make us late!" I yelled through the door.

"I'm done so hold on," he replied.

I heard the sound of feet moving on the tile floor and then the door opened to reveal my annoying little brother. He wore a yellow shirt, tan shorts, and yellow sneakers. He had decided since he was in "high school" now he wasn't going to wear his hair all neat, so his hair was messy and all over the place.

I personally think he copied Ash's hair style since Ash is sort of like his role model. That or he is trying to get the girls to notice him, but hey I could be wrong.

"Oh yeah shower duh," I said remembering what I had to do.

I walked into the bathroom and closed the door.

~Thirty minutes later~

I was finishing the last touches of my hair and when I was satisfied I opened the bathroom door. I hurried down to the kitchen so I could eat my breakfast.

"Morning mom. Morning dad," I said sitting down and starting on my breakfast.

"Morning," they replied sipping at their coffee.

"Oh mom and dad. Did you send our stuff to the campus?" I asked realizing I didn't know if they had or not.

"Yes May. We sent them yesterday. They should be on campus already," my mother replied since my father was looking at the newspaper.

Max who was drinking his milk nearly choked when he saw the time.

"We gotta go! The bus is about to be at our stop in like five minutes!" he shouted at me.

"What!" I cried in panic.

We both jumped up and hurried up the stairs to get our school bags. We were running out the door in thirty seconds flat, hurrying to the bus stop.

Leaf's POV

I rolled over in my bed and the next thing I know, I'm getting a painful awakening.

"Ow!" I cried as I hit the floor.

I groaned and got up off my wooden floor, rubbing my tailbone.

"That hurt," I muttered looking at my door since I heard footsteps.

"Are you alright Leaf?" my mother asked worried.

"Yeah I just fell off my bed," I said embarrassed by falling off my bed.

My mother laughed and walked back down the stairs.

Greatttt. It's fun laughing at your parents, but when they laugh at you... Not so funny. Oh joy I gotta go to school with my butt bone hurting, I thought.

I grabbed my outfit for school and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

~Twenty minutes later~

I walked out feeling refreshed. I wore a pair of gray short shorts, a white loose top, white sandals, and a belt hanging loosely around my waist. I added my necklace I had made when I was younger and pulled my hair into a cute french braid.

"Cute," I said actually pleased with my appearance today.

I walked down to the kitchen to find both my parents stirring their coffee.

"Morning," I said.

"Morning Leaf," my mom said.

"Morning sweetie," my dad said.

My mother glanced at my outfit.

"Don't you look cute today," she said with a smile.

"Mom!" I exclaimed slightly embarrassed.

My dad laughed at my embarrassment. I huffed and popped a pop tart into the toaster. After a short wait it popped up and I pulled it out.

"HOT!" I cried dropping it on the counter.

"That's why you wait a few minutes dear," my mom said.

"Yeah yeah I know," I said breaking the pop tart into two pieces.

"Leaf we are sending your stuff to campus today," my dad said taking a sip of his coffee.

"Alright. Will it be there before tonight?" I asked placing a piece of pop tart in my mouth.

My dad nodded his head at my question. I finished off my pop tart and walked up to my room to get my school bag.

"Bag and jacket," I said grabbing the bag from my computer chair.

I glanced around for the jacket, but couldn't find it.

"Where did it go?" I asked myself panicking.

I dropped my bag at my door and looked for the jacket. I checked in my closet, my drawers, and the chair buried with stuffed dolls.

Don't make fun of me. I like little Pokémon dolls. I ran down the stairs and entered the kitchen.

"Have you seen my jacket?" I asked fixing my sandals.

"You hung it on your door hook," my dad said glancing at me.

"Thanks!" I cried and ran back up the stairs.

I tripped at the last one and fell on the floor. I stayed like that for a few minutes then got up after the pain had subsided. I grabbed the black jacket and my bag and headed toward the front door.

"See ya!" I shouted to my parents before I rushed out the door and began a speedy run to the bus stop.

Rocky's POV

I woke up to the sweet smell of the beach. I got up and headed to my closet to get my outfit for school.

Yippee school starts today. Haha yeah right. I'm so not excited. Let's see what will happen today,

I pulled on my closet handles, but it wouldn't open. I tried again to no avail, I then yanked on the doors breaking one handle off and the other came open and whacked my forehead.

"Ow! Es estúpido armario puerta! Pedazo de basura! ASA armario estúpido va y se rompe. A continuación, vaya y me golpeó en la frente," I said holding my head.

(Translation: Ow! You stupid closet door! You piece of junk! Stupid closet handle goes and breaks. Then you go and hit me in the forehead.)

Yes when I get mad I start speaking a different language. I dropped the handle in my hand and looked through my clothes searching for an outfit. I grabbed an outfit and walked to the bathroom to shower and prepare for the day.

~Twenty-five minutes later~

I came out of the bathroom all refreshed. I was wearing a bright green shirt, a pair of black knee length shorts, with bright neon green knee-high socks with the word "ROCK" on them in neon pink, and my high tops. I pulled my hair into a ponytail and added a clip with a skull on it. I left my bangs down, but styled them so they were above my eyebrows.

I walked out of my room and walked down to the kitchen. I pushed open the door only to stop in my tracks. In the kitchen I found my father and Nikki—who was to become my "new mom"— together. I glared at her and what they were doing. They were kissing in the kitchen and I just scanned to see what they were wearing.

Nikki wore a pair of shorts with a loose top on. Her hair was in a low ponytail, but it was falling out. My dad wore his sweatpants and his shirt; his hair needed brushing.

I decided to go back up to my room and call my mother. I closed my door and picked up my smartphone that was red and dialed my mother in the phone application. The phone rang two times before my mom's voice replaced the ringing.

"Rocky!" she exclaimed happily.

"Hey mom!" I said my eyes watering.

"I miss you sweetie," she said.

"I do too. When can you come visit?"

"I don't know sweetie. My work is keeping me pretty busy. Your father probably doesn't want me anywhere near him..." my mom said, trailing off.

"I start school today," I announced.

"Aww my baby's in tenth grade now," she replied.

"Yeah. Mom I'm going to call you a lot while I'm at school since I'm living at the dorms on campus."

"I can't wait. One sec Rocky."

My mom talked to someone off to the side. I heard her start speaking a different language and I could make out this: "What? When? But- fine." She said more, but she talked too fast for me to comprehend it.

"Rocky," my mom said, returning to her phone.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"I gotta go. Work is calling,"

"Alright."

"I love you."

"Love you too mom."

The call was ended. My door opened and Nikki stood by the door. I faced her with a glare.

"Ever heard of knocking?" I asked coldly.

"Rocky your father said get up," she said.

"Umm did you not notice I'm dressed?" I asked smiling sweetly.

She glanced at me and an "oh" came from her.

"Well I guess you can come and eat breakfast," she stated.

"Uh-huh I'll be down later," I said getting up and shutting my door in her face.

I sighed and sat on my bed thinking back to that night my dad announced he and Nikki were getting married.

Flashback

I had just left the beach and I was heading back to my house. I stopped by my backdoor and dusted the sand off my dress and emptied it from my heels. I pulled the door open and stepped in clicking as I did so. I walked to the kitchen and pushed the door open and poked my head in.

My dad looked up with a worried expression which quickly changed to an angry expression. I walked in and sat down at the table waiting in the silence. I glanced at Nikki who looked upset.

"Rocky outside now," my dad ordered in a stern voice.

I slid the chair back and walked outside. I waited for my dad to come out and while I waited I rocked back and forth on my heels. The back door slammed making me jump and look up.

"Hey dad," I said.

"Rocky," he said.

"Trouble?"

"Big time."

"Sorry?"

"Rocky why did you act like that?" my dad asked me.

I was silent and thought.

"I told you why," I said knowing he was about to yell at me.

"I have no idea what you said! You and your mother do that and I never know what you two are saying!" he shouted in frustration.

"Exactly. It's better that you don't know."

"Rocky!"

My dad yelling at me didn't bother me. I got yelled at a lot since the divorce happened. I wasn't the nicest girl when it happened.

"Yeah?" I asked a smile tugging at my lips.

"This is not a laughing matter young lady."

"Alright.

"Rocky why?"

"It's better if you don't know dad."

"I am your father so you tell me now."

"No I can't."

"Did you insult Nikki?"

"No," I answered truthfully.

"Rocky."

"What? I didn't dad."

"Fine then don't tell me. You are grounded though young lady. Please Rocky just try to accept Nikki, you might find something in common with her."

"No promises."

I then walked back in and up to my room.

End of flashback

I sighed and thought some more.

"He didn't even let me tell him I had a boyfriend," I muttered.

My mind traveled back to when I still lived with both of my parents.

Flashback

I came in from school one day. I had a great day, but it was ruined quickly. I heard screaming coming from my parents' room so I dropped my bag at the door and walked to my parents' room.

"Mom dad I'm home," I said.

They didn't hear me though. My mother was yelling at my dad and what she was saying was not very nice.

"I have no idea what you are saying!" my dad yelled.

My mom just continued to scream and yell in her other language. My dad then walked over to the night table and opened the drawer. My mom stopped her insults and looked at him.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"This," he said holding up a paper.

"Good. You got the papers. Let me see them," she requested.

My dad walked back over and tossed it on the bed that my mom was standing by. She picked up a pen from the table beside her and signed it. She then gave it back to my dad.

"Rocky," they said at the same time.

I looked at them. I was confused and scared by the way they were acting even though I was fifteen.

"Rocky you might have noticed that we haven't been acting right the past few months now," my mom said.

I nodded my head. It was true, they had been fighting for months now.

"Well we decided that it is best if we get a divorce," my dad stated just like that.

"What?" I asked.

"We are getting a divorce," my dad repeated.

"You are going to live with me," my mom said.

I was about to say something, but I got interrupted by my dad.

"No she's living with me," my dad said.

Soon they were at it again. I just walked out of the room and went to my own room.

End of flashback

I snapped back into the real world to the sound of footsteps coming toward my door.

My door opened and Nikki was back once again.

"You better hurry. The bus will be here soon," she said.

I just nodded and started getting my stuff together into a handbag.

Flashback

After the divorce I was forced to live with my dad. I wasn't taking it easy. My dad was out of the house for hours after a few months. During the first few months I wasn't a good child. I broke the rules, didn't listen, did some stuff I shouldn't have, but I did no drugs or anything of that nature, I promise.

"Be home by ten," my dad told me when I was going to a party.

"Whatever," I muttered and walked out.

I arrived back at the house by midnight.

"I said ten," my dad told me austerely.

"My bad," I said dully and walked to my room.

That day was one of the good days. Most of the time my dad and I would yell and fight.

End of flashback

I walked to the front door and then stopped.

"Dad did you send my stuff to campus?" I asked.

He appeared from around the corner.

"We don't have the money to send it. Here's some money so you can buy the stuff you need," he said handing me a wad of money.

I just nodded a little confused and left.

"You don't have money to send my stuff, but you can give me a wad of it. I just don't get that," I muttered as I walked towards the bus stop.

I felt my hands shake and I couldn't take it anymore. I stopped and collapsed in the sand and cried. The flashbacks this morning were too much for me, calling my mom was too as I miss her so much, and then seeing my dad and Nikki kissing didn't help.

I stopped crying, but I stayed in the sand. I opened my handbag and pulled out a small mirror, wiped my face with some wet wipes, then speedily applied light green eye shadow. I put that away and got out some green eye liner, applying it carefully but quickly. I placed everything back into my bag and hurried to the bus stop before I got left behind.
