CHAPTER I
-ASTRID'S POV-
*BEEP BEEP BEEP*
"Ugh great another long day ahead of me" I thought to myself as I slammed on my alarm clock to turn off. I lazily got the covers off me and literally crawled out of bed. Can you tell I'm not a morning person?
A little bit about myself. Well My name is Astrid Bernard. I'm 17 years old currently in the 11th grade at Skyview High School. I'm pretty short for my age I'm 5'2. To be honest I would describe myself as a normal teenager ya know? I like to hang out with friends and just be myself. I'm pretty easy to get along with just don't get to my bad side.
It was a Sunday morning and my mom being the nice woman she is decided to volunteer me in helping the new neighbors move into their house. She didn't even ask me before to make sure I did want to help? I mean I would help but if I didn't have to wake up at 7 in the morning!
I walked over to my dresser and got out a black Rolling Stones shirt and high waisted shorts as it was 98 degrees out today. Wow! It's hot out.
I live in Las Vegas, Nevada so it's pretty accurate for it to be so damn hot! And to add to that it was summer.
As I got my outfit out I went to connect the curler on. I connected my iPhone onto my iHome I put it on full blast. I put it onto shuffle and went into my walk in bathroom. I turned on the water to a perfect temperature of warmth. I stripped out of my pajamas and went into my shower. I washed my hair and body with my favorite shampoo and body wash which was strawberry scent.
As I finished shaving I rinsed off. i then walked out of my shower and reached for my purple towel hanging on the rack next to my shower. I blow dried my hair and went off to curl it or at least curl loose beach waves. As I finished my hair that surprisingly turned out to come out the way I wanted it, I finished it adding a bit of hairspray to stay in place. As I finished with that I went to my white vanity that was located to a corner of my room, I went into my make up did something simple which consisted of some black eyeliner and mascara. I was a big fan of make up but not to a point where I cake up my face or always do it.
As I finished my make up I walked over to where I had left my outfit for the day and changed into them. As I put my high waisted shorts I tucked in my black Rolling Stones shirt in. I went over to my closet and got out my black converse. I went to get a pair of socks and slipped those into my feet, as I slipped my socks on I also slipped my shoes on. I finished my look by putting some perfume. My favorite would have to be the Paris Hilton one. I quickly glanced over my look through my full length mirror and I admit I was happy with the results.
In the past 5 years I had problems with my weight where I was overweight and that brought my self esteem down hill where I had hit Rock bottom and I went anorexic. But with the help of my mom I was able to maintain a healthy life style where I actually feel confident about myself.
I walked over to my sink and got my tooth brush out. I started brushing my teeth for about 5 min that's until my phone went off. I received a call from my mom. Probably to let me know that she left me breakfast down stairs. I had ignored it knowing that she would tell me to "eat all my breakfast to maintain a happy and stable life" God don't I know her well!
I got my phone and ran downstairs to eat my breakfast and of course find a cute little note my mom left
"Good morning honey! I'm off to work sorry I couldn't stay to eat breakfast with you. Make sure you eat all your fruits and don't forget to be on your best behavior with the new neighbors! Welcome them to the neighborhood and take them the brownies I made last night for them that are in the fridge. Have a great day and see at 5 today! Love you sweetie
Love Mom xx. "
I ate all my breakfast and of course got the brownies out of the fridge. I was pretty nervous to go next door and welcome them.
I saw 3 trucks pull in. Wow they must have a lot of stuff I thought. As the trucks pulled in I saw men dressed in khaki suits go back and forth dropping things into the new house.
I walked forwards a tall man in a suit with black hair. I was pretty nervous at this moment.
"Hi? Umm I'm Astrid Bernard, you must be..."
"Robin Twist... Hi nice to meet you" he took out his hand for me to shake and smiled.
I shook his hand.
"Welcome to our neighborhood!" I smiled.
"Thank you sweetie. Anne Hun come over please!" He gave a shout obviously calling for her.
"Oh hi honey!"
"Hi I'm Astrid Bernard, next door neighbor" I told her and this time I put my hand out first for her to shake.
"Nice to meet you. My names Anne Cox" she smiled shaking my hand.
I handed her the brownies "My mom made these as a welcome gift. She's working right now but I'm sure she'll stop by later and say hello" I smiled.
"Ahh yes, thank you very much I will return the plate later thank you so much!"
One thing since they started talking I noticed something about them. They had a thick British accent! Wow! Wasn't that awesome? I was pretty excited to know they were British and excited to see how it is to live next to British people!
