I woke up the next morning around nine and headed towards the bathroom. I washed my face, brush my teeth, comb my hair before stripping out of my clothes and into the shower. I carefully slipped on a shower cap for my hair and began to wash my body. I hopped out of the shower, drying off my body and walked to my closet, putting out a grey and gold (my school colors) tennis outfit. I put on my tennis shoes and grabbed my bag, cell phone charger and my iphone and headed downstairs. I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a protein shake. I left a note on the couch counter, not that anyone would notice. My phone dinged, signaling I got a text. Nitch texted me saying she was here. I walked out the house, locked the door, and hop into her car.
~~~~~~skipping to tennis practice~~~~~~
I started my warm-up by stretching out my quads, calfs, and arms. After I loosened up we started are workouts.

After Nitch dropped me off at my house, I raced into the house and hopped into the shower. I washed all the dirt and sweat off my body and washed my hair with my vanilla shampoo. I got out and dried off before slipping on my black thong and bralette. I walked to my closet and pulled out my dark super skinny jeans from Hollister, a white tank top, a pink and white stripped v-neck tshirt. I slipped my clothes on and put on my white vans. I fixed my hair and makeup, then grabbed my Michael Kors dome cross body bag. I walked downstairs into the kitchen and write a note explaining that I got a ride to open house and i would be at Brooke's if they needed me. I looked up at the clock and notice it was 4:59. I walked outside;in the middle of locking the door I heard Brooke beep the horn. I ran up to her car, a red Audi, and got in and buckled up before heading the chick fl a.
We sat down at our usual seats; I order the chicken nuggets meal with a medium fry and drink and Brooke got a chicken sandwich with a medium fry and drink as well. We sit and talked for awhile before deciding that we should head on to the open house. We arrived at Franklin Regional High School. Walking through the doors, roaming the halls in search of our homerooms. We came in a halt, when we see our homerooms right beside each other. We both went into the rooms and retrieved our schedules, talked to our teachers and came out to see what each other got. My schedule went like this: 1st semester

Brooke and I have 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th together for 1st semester. We walked around the school, finding the quickest ways to get to class, meeting up with some of our other best friends. Around 7:50 we decided to head back home, dropping me home at 8:10. I walked through the front door and closed it ever so lightly. "ALEXANDRIA ELIZABETH ZIEGLER, WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN ALL DAY?!" mom yelled. "I went to tennis practice then I got a ride from Brooke to go to open house since nobody in this house has time for me." I mocked back. "BROOKE HYLAND??? YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO BE FRIENDS WITH HER OR EVEN TALK TO HER. IM SO DISGUSTED WITH YOU. YOU NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND TELL ONE OF US WHERE YOU ARE GOING." "No mom, you and the girls can't be friends with the hylands due to your contract. I, however, can cause I'm not on the show. I wrote you a note telling you were I was on the fridge. Plus, it wouldn't even matter because I'm the invisible child in the family. " I spilled to mom. "JUST GO TO YOUR ROOM AND START PACKING! WE ARE MOVING HOUSES IN A WEEK TIME SPAN." I stomped up my room and slammed the door shut. I picked up a box and started folding my clothes up. I continued to clean my room, putting everything that could fit in a box in a brown box and labeled what it was. I had gotten everything sorted in a matter of two and a half hours. I stripped my clothes and shoes off, putting on a black pj set, cleaned my makeup off my face & washed my face, took my contacts out, and put my hair up into a messy but still cute bun. I heard a knock at the door, opened to reveal my step-dad. "Yes?" I said. "Your mom and I decided that you should have a car considering none of your friends can pick you up. So we bought you a 2013 white BMW. Here ya go." He explained, tossing the keys at me. "Thank you Greg! Thank you so muchh!" I screamed as I hugged him. "Haha. Well, yeah, go to sleep. We start packing everything tomorrow." He said and then closed the door. I put the keys down on my side table and texted my coach explaining tomorrow's situation and then I turned he lights off and fell asleep.
