A Replacment

When will my life begin?

Hey! Hope you like my story so far, This chapter will introduce my OC. I hope you all like her!

Hi, my name's Nikki, cute name huh? Well, thats actually not my name, its my nickname, but I won't tell you my real name, its super lame, hey that rhymed! Anyway I'm fifteen, going to be sixteen tomorrow, yay! I live in a small orphanage by the beach, my favourite place in the world, where I love to go surf and collect seashells. Sadly I haven't been allowed to go there very much lately because the head of the orphanage, Ms Hilga thinks its a waste of time and has been making me stay inside to try and find something more useful to do. The only time I get to go to the beach is at 5:00, and thats only for an hour!

Which is where I am right now, doing chores, bored out of my mind wishing time would go by faster. At the moment I'm cleaning the incredibly gross bathroom, I live with like fifteen other girls and we all have one stinking bathroom! And they're not exactly clean girls, I'm the oldest so I'm the one that has to clean up the messes!

When I'm done cleaning...whatever it is thats on the mirror, I take a minute to look at myself. I'm not what you would call beautiful, and not what you would call ugly, just...pretty... I guess. I have olive toned skin, hazel almond shaped eyes, light straight brown hair that goes past my shoulders, with bangs that brush my eyebrows, an oval shaped face, small but shapely figure, small lips and small nose. As for fashion, you can usually find me wearing a cute one piece swimsuit, and my signature trademark, a long necklace made entirely of seashells that I made myself. I had a bracelet as well but I stupidly decided to surf with it on yesterday and lost it, oh well.

I suddenly get an idea, how about I make time go faster by doing what the characters in my favourite movie Wet Side Story would do: Sing!

7:00 a.m the usual morning lineup

Start on the chores and sweep til the floors all clean

Polish and wax, do laundry, and mop and shine up

Sweep again, and by then it's like 7:15!

And so I'll read a book

Or maybe two or three

I'll add a few new paintings to my gallery

I'll play guitar and knit

And cook and basic'ly

Just wonder when will my life begin

Then after lunch it's puzzles and darts and baking

Paper mache, a bit of ballet and chess

Pottery and ventriloquy, candle making,

Then I'll stretch, maybe sketch, take a climb, sew a dress

And I'll reread the books

If I have time to spare

I'll paint the walls some more

I'm sure there's room somewhere

And I'll brush and brush and brush and brush my hair

Stuck in the same place I've always been

And I'll keep wonder'in and wonder'in and wonder'in and wonder'in

When will my life begin

So thats basically my day. I will admit it is kinda boring, but I'm not complaining, I just wish Ms Hilga would let me stay out a little longer to surf, but she worries...in her own little way, she just wants me to become something...something that's not a surfer, which is something I love.

I don't dwell on these thoughts for long because when I look at the clock, I find that it's almost 5:00. Yes! I can go surfing!

I quickly grab my board and run out the door to the beautiful big blue ocean. Giving a shout of joy I paddle out into the water, but sadly there aren't many waves, or any waves worth riding at least. Finally I decide to just leave, maybe tomorrow will be better, besides, tomorrow I'm planning on asking Ms Hilga if I can stay out longer on my birthday. Hopefully she'll let me, I hardly ever get to leave the house.

Just as I'm about to leave I hear someone call out to me. When I look to see where the voice is coming from, I see a girl floating in the water, and she looks really familiar, and...her hair isn't wet.

......Yeah, it's a songfic, you'll be seeing a lot more songs show up in this fic.

I hope you like it and I hope you like Nikki, she plays a big role in this story.

 The song Nikki sings is When will my life begin from Tangled.

Until next time!
