A/N WOW! The replies for TDP went CRAZY! I'm starting off the story now & don't fret if you don't see your character. I'm still sorting through a HUMONGOUS PILE of Reviews & PM's for this story. Your character might make it in as a minor character, a transfer, or even a teacher if I feel compelled to do it. =) Anyways, I've kept you guys waiting long enough. Without further ado, the first chappie of TDP.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the TDI/A characters nor do I own any of the TDP characters.

Kat POV

The beginning of the end.

Seriously, that's what this huge, tan-ish looking bus was. The beginning of the end. My parents had insisted that "Oh, the McClain Academy in Southern Miami was one of the best in the country!" And myGrandparents, "The McClain Academy is the best & most prestigious school in the WORLD! It will straighten you out." Even my perfect little sister, "Oh Man! I would kill for the chance your getting! You'll learn somuch & maybe come back normal!"

Yea, cause we all want that to happen.

Who wants a daughter with 4 misdemeanors & 2 expulsions? Obviously not my family. So they jumped at the chance for me to have a scholarship to the "All-Exclusive, All-Expenses Paid, Year Abroad." I meanseriously? It was in Florida. Not somewhere cool like London or Italy.

I took one last look at our yellow & green, arts & crafts house. It would be the last time that I'd see it. Well at least for a year, anyways. I had already said good-bye to my family, stripped my room down to the paint on my walls & the wood floor, now standing on the steps of my house, watching this bus pull up. Now the hard part, saying good-bye to my friends.

They had come to say good-bye to me & I'd truly miss them much more then my parents. Pat, Jon, Jay, & Ally. These were the people who I'd been with since the beginning, & now I was leaving them. They had my whole highschool experience so much more liveable. Pat & Jon had the most issues with me leaving. I was in a band with them called False Solution. I was the lead singer & bass player, but with one decision our band had been basically screwed. Thanks mommy.

I gave them each a huge hug before I faced them. "Guys, this isn't the end! I promise I'll text you everyday & I can web chat you all with my laptop!" However, even I knew it wouldn't be the same. I gave them all each one more hug, saving Pat for last.

Pat and I had been dating for the better part of 3 years. He was my JFK, and I was his Marilyn. (Ok in retrospect not the best nicknames…) & now we were being separated. For a whole year. Have I mentioned yet how much this whole deal blows?

"Ok I promised myself I wouldn't make a huge deal out of this but, I'm really going to miss you, & I love you so much & I'm going to stay faithful because I know you will do the same for me…and…I." Pat seemed to be struggling with his words; the glimmer of tears in the corner of his eyes basically broke my heart.

I put my hands on the either side of his face, starting to cry myself. "Look ok so were separated by like 6 states right? I promise to you I'll be out & back into your arms before you know it." Tears were streaming down my face as he wrapped my arms me & I him. He looked down at my face and said "And if you can't handle it there all you have to do is call, and I promise all of us will get down to that hell hole and kidnap you"

I looked into his eyes, and realized how much I'm going to miss seeing his face everyday and just started crying harder, gripping him tighter. It was just us in our own little world, and no one could ever ruin this mom-

"HONK HONK" A big black man at the wheel slammed the wheel again & open the door and yelled "Hey, delinquent detach yourself from lanky, so we can go!"

Pat grabbed my luggage and threw it under the bus. I started to walk for the bus, but Pat grabbed my arm & pulled me back to face me. "I will never stop thinking about you, don't let them for get us." He them pulled me into the most passionate kiss we ever had…only to have the angry man honk the horn again. I let go of him & climbed up the steps of the bus, & plopped down into the first seat I saw. As we pulled away from everything I loved, Pat raised his hand in good-bye & I felt a single tear slide down my cheek, I truly knew this was the beginning of the end

A/N Ok so i know it's short but i wanted to put a first chapter up. I'm already done with the next chapter but i'm going to wait til tomorrow to put it up. That chapter will be very long & have everyone on the CAST LIST on it. If you submitted later or wasn't on the original cast list, DO NOT PANIC. I may but you in as a transfer later in, or a minor character. Kat is my own App, and i mainly used her because i needed a starting point. I won't be using her POV for a while, because i want to write in your character POV or in 3rd person. =) Also if you wish to know what Pat looks like google a picture of Michael Cera from SUPER BAD. He was a guy i used to like & i felt it approprite to use him. ALSO! Please guys if you want you character to be romatically attached =D to someone look through the cast list of TDI/TDA or the new "students" & PM ME WHO YOU WANT. If you send me a review, i'll give your character a zit. Lol no not really, but it's easier for me to keep track of everbody this way. Thanks guys. so you should now the dril by now. Review or PM if you've got ideas you feel compelled to share & give me your thoughts. With that, see you tomorrow. Peace. K
