My Pov

My plane landed and I found the valet, Joseph, my dad had sent to get me.

"It's so good to see you again Miss Sophia." Joseph said.

"It's good to be back, Joseph." I said. Soon we pulled up to my childhood home. A huge mansion. I quickly grabbed my bag and hurried to the gate. I pressed the speaker button on the intercom. It took a while until I heard someone answer.

"Hello?" a voice asked.

"It's me. Sophia Dubois." I said. The gates opened and I walked up the path and one of the maids, Grace, opened the door.

"Welcome back Miss." Grace said.

"Thank you Grace. Where's my dad and André?" I asked.

"Your father won't be back until late and Mr. André should be returning soon." Grace said.

"Do either know I was coming back?" I asked. She nodded her head. Good. I wanted to surprise them. It was about an hour before I heard the door open and Grace's voice.

"Welcome back Mr. André. You have a visitor." Grace said.

"If it's another fan girl or interviewer, escort them out now." André said. Poor André. Being alone must have really hardened him.

"Oh, Andy! Don't be like that." I said. Colette and I were the only ones who called him Andy, just like me and him called Colette Coco. His eyes widen when he saw me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and spun me around.

"Sophie! You're home!" André excalimed. Sophie was of course the name he and Coco called me by.

"Yeah. Mom saw I was sad so she gave custody to Dad. Now I'll be living with you guys." I said. We spent about three hours catching up and telling of what we had gone through in the past four years. Soon, we heard the door open again.

"Welcome back Sir. You have a visitor whose been waiting to speak with you." Grace said.

"Who would that be?" Dad asked. I ran and jumped on him.

"It's me, Daddy!" I exclaimed. When he saw it was me, he did the same thing André had.

"Oh, my little Sophia! How beautiful you've become." Dad said. I blushed a little. At lunch, we had a pleasant conversation and I went up to my old room and saw it had been refurnished. Shelves of books ring around my room with my bed placed on top of platform that was over one of the shelves with a staircase leading to it. Around my bed was a large, veil curtain. In-between two of the shelves was a large, circular window with a steep nook against it. I thought about putting some cushions and pillows there and make it a comfy reading spot. I noticed the underground terrarium that was placed in the middle of my room. Mom must of have told dad how much I admired the flora from the different countries we had been to. I had a large desk placed near my doorway and a large circular chair placed near it.

"This is so cool!" I exclaimed.

"Dad had your room update in case you ever came back home." André said.

"I love it." I said.

"I need to head over to the school and get you enrolled before they close. At least we'll have the weekend to get your stuff." André said. I sighed. Should've known my brother wouldn't let me avoid school for even a day.

"I'll go with you. That way I know where it is." I said. We walked not too far from home and got there just as school was letting out.

"Principle Damocles!" André called. The man, who guessed was the principle walked over to us.

"André. It's good to see you. Who is this?" Damocles asked.

"This is one of my younger sisters, Sophia." André said.

"Ah! So this is Sophia. It's wonderful to meet you my dear." Damocles said. I curtsied.

"Nice to meet you too, sir." I said.

"Sophia, I'll handle your registration. Why do you go look around the school?" André suggested. I went inside and looked around. I noticed some of the kids. Just as I turned the corner-

"Ouch!" I cried. I heard something fall and saw a boy a little older then me sitting on the ground. He had red orange hair and turquoise eyes. "I'm so sorry!" I picked up his things and helped him up. "I didn't mean to knock you down."

"That's okay. I'm Nathaniel." the boy said. He stretched out his hand. I took it and shook hands.

"I'm Sophia Dubois." I said.

"Dubois? Are you André's younger sister?" Nathaniel asked. I nodded. "He's like a older brother to some of the students here. Me, being one of them. The others are almost everyone in my class."

"Who all's in your class?" I asked.

"Well, let's see. Chloé, Sabrina, Ivan, Myléne, Kim, Max, Alix, Rose, Juleka, Nino, Adrien, Alya and Marinette." Nathaniel said. I stopped at the last two names.

"Did you say Alya and Marinette?" I asked. Nathaniel nodded. I hadn't seen those two since I left. The three of us had been like The Three Musketeers. "Well, I'm off to them. It was nice to meet Nathaniel. I hope I'll have you in my classes." I waved good-bye and went to find the girls. I went up and down the stairs and saw them. "Marinette! Alya!" They both looked at me funny, then Marinette saw the ladybug pendant she gave me before I left.

"Sophia!" Marinette exclaimed. The two of them hugged me. "When'd you get back?"

"Earlier today. André's enrolling me here, so I'll be seeing you guys Monday." I said.

"Wait, here." Marinette said. Marinette took off and gave me my swan pendant.

"You held on to it." I said.

"Of course." Marinette said.

"Sophia, let's go home!" André called. I waved good-bye to my friends and went home. When night fell, I dressed in my new nightgown and crawled into my new bed. I was happy that I would be going to the same school as Marinette and Alya again, but also my thought went to Nathaniel for some reason. I couldn't help but think how cute he was. I blushed thinking about how sweet he had been. I fell asleep, hoping the weekend would past quickly.

If you want to know what Sophia's room looks like; it's mostly Cassie's room, with Adora's desk, Sage's chair and Clover's underground terrarium. In case you're wondering who these girls are, they're from Star Darlings. Just type up their names and go to the Disney link, which will have a picture of their rooms.
