Her mother woke Peridot up pretty darn early, 6am to be exact, their flight left at 9 but it took a long time to get ready. A few shouts from her Father, her mother just quietly getting ready. And Peridot just tiredly packed the rest of the stuff. She didn't even know what was even going to happen with the stuff in her home, it was all just material stuff but still, they worked hard for everything.

The flight was only about four hours long, Peridot slept the whole flight because she really didn't get enough sleep at home, but when they arrived Peridot immediately noticed the difference. This place was C O L D. And she Hated it already.

It took a while to actually haul in a cab, Peridot just cursed mentally the whole way, she was even able to see her own breath, which she just didn't consider normal. Her mother tried to reassure her daughter and surprisingly it worked, her father was silent the whole way, which was a new record for him, maybe he did wanted the best for them? When they got to the new house-- well apartment building Peridot couldn't help but feel… Small? Well she was generally a small person, only being 4'8, but emotionally small this time. This was all new to her so she couldn't help but actually be afraid of this change.

The inside of the apartment was pretty small, living room right where the kitchen is, at least it had two rooms though. Peridot would have thrown a riot if she didn't have her own space. But everything seemed good so far. Her parents went out to get some food so she had the whole space to herself for at least an hour or so. There really wasn't much to explore though, the space was pretty small, but at least they weren't sleeping on the street, that was good. Her exploration was interrupted when she heard a faint knock, who could that be? Her parent left only a few minutes ago so it couldn't possibly be them. Peridot hesitantly opened the door, looking up at the strange slender woman on the other side. She raised a brow, who even was this? When Peridot opened her mouth to say something the woman extended her hand out at her, a friendly smile plastered on her lips.

"Why hello there child! May i speak with your parents?" Peridot's eyebrow twitched, if looks could kill, this stranger would certainly be very dead.

" I'm 17, and my parents are out for a moment. What do you want?" the woman's smile sank, an apologetic expression quickly taking over. "Oh i'm sorry! It's just you're so…" the woman looked down at Peridot for a moment, examining the person in front of her. "W-well it's nice to meet you! My name is Pearl, and i'm your neighbor." Peridot just listened in silence, they moved in only a couple hours ago and they already had a nosey neighbor? Great.

" I was surprised when i saw people moving here, this isn't the fanciest of places but i'm glad we have someone new! What is your name? " " Peridot, nice to meet you" The teenager said in deadpan, this stranger didn't seem much older than her. Skinny, very tall, short peach hair and sky blue eyes. She seemed interesting, to say the least.

The visit with the girl only lasted for about half an hour, Peridot learned that she was a senior, a massive nerd, a ballet instructor and that she was studying engineering. She was here for a short time and she already spoke to someone, which was good because Peridot was a very antisocial person, and Pearl was kind enough to actually give her cookies so, she won her over. The thing she liked more? They both were going to the same school, Peridot is a junior but she at least didn't have to be completely alone on her first day. Once they said their good bye's Peridot headed back in and passed out, it had been a long day and even if it was still kinda early she was tired. Her mother didn't waste no time, tomorrow Peridot was going straight to school. There was no escaping it, Peridot thought it was a pretty rushed move but staying here alone while her parents probably argue? Yeah no, she rather go to school.
