Monday August 12,2017

Today I am Belle. It's the first day of my last year of high school. I am going to miss my friends so much. Especially my best friends Gianna and Alex. And of course my boyfriend Shawn.

I know the school year just started,but I can't help but think that at the end of the year,when I go to college all my friends will be gone. Samara is good at making friends...Belle not so much. What if people think I'm a freak or something.

But anyways ......

"Belle! Honey, its time to wake up." My mom comes knocking on my door. I have two rooms;one for Belle,one for Samara. That way my mom knows if I'm Belle or not. She doesn't talk to me much when I'm Samara, I can't remember why.

"I'm already up, mother." I call back. I get up and take a quick shower. Then I make my way to the closet. My two rooms are connected by the huge walk-in closet. Half the clothes are Samara's,half are mine. That's how everything is in this family.

I pick out a cute pink dress and white wedges. The dress is kinda short and I don't know how mother will react.  I love the way it looks on me.

Just to be safe I throw on a cardigan and walk to my vanity to start my makeup. I'm also not allowed to wear heavy makeup, at least not as Belle. I brush on some blush and subtle highlight,swipe on some mascara, and put on my favourite nude lipstick. When I finish I walk back to my room and grab my phone with the pink case. I have three texts and a bunch of Tumblr notifications.

Shawn😘: Good morning my Belle.

Gigi🙃👯:  first cheer practice of the school year ughhh.

Alex da Queen👑😜: did mom make muffins today. If yes bring me 2 maybe 3?

I quickly reply and stuff my phone in my bag. I run downstairs hearing my mom call my name.

"Good morning, daddy." I go up to my dad and kiss his cheek. He ruffles my curled hair.

"Good morning,Scruff. Mom made muffins." He smiles,using my old nickname.

"Come on, Belle. You know I have to go to the DMV today." My mom calls from the door. I grab 3 muffins for Alex and one for myself and run to the car.

"I should really get my own car. I'm almost 18." I say once she backs out the driveway.

"Yeah right than I'd have to buy two of those,too." She pulls up to the school. "Besides it's walking distance to the school anyways." She shrugs.  After 5 minutes she pulls in front of my school.

"Bye mom!" I slam the door shut. She honks and pulls off.

I walk around to the courtyard where everyone is before the bell. I walk up to my usual table. Alex is balancing a pencil on his nose,while Gianna records him on her Snapchat.

"Hey guys! I missed you." I say,handing Alex his muffins. He grabs the bag and stuffs one in his mouth.

"We missed you,too. Even though I seen you like 3 days ago." Alex mumbles and shoves another muffin in his mouth. I giggle.

"Do you have an extra cheer bow? I  forgot mine and Casey's gonna kill me if I don't look as perky as ever." Gianna grabs my custom cheer bag and starts looking through it.  I don't mind since we've been friends for years.

"Yup. You know I'm the best cheer-mom ever,I have things for everyone."

"That's true. After 4 years you'd think the rest of us would be more prepared." She giggles, taking one of my bows and putting it in her bag.

"Boo!" Shawn comes up and puts his hands over my eyes. I turn around quickly to meet his eyes.

"Hi honey! I missed you." I giggle as he kisses me on the cheek.

"I saw you last ni...never mind. Did you hear about the new girl?" He changes the subject quickly. Alex's nosey ears perk up at this,and he lifts his head quickly.

"Omg! We have fresh blood." He yells. The group next to us stares.

"Yeah, her names Isis or Idna or something like that." He shrugs, pulling me to sit on his lap.

"Mmm, interesting." I say nonchalantly. The bell rings causing me to hop up. Shawn and I have the same first period so he grabs my hand and walks with me to the West Wing.

When we make it to English, I bump into a girl. She has blonde hair,blue eyes,and a confused look on her face. She must be the new girl.

"Oh! I'm so sorry." She says putting her hands up. She's Australian and definitely the new girl.

"Its fine. This is Shawn,I'm Belle. Do you need help?"

"I'm looking for W English 12. This building is so confusing with the West and the South and ughh." I point behind her and she sees the sign reading English 12.

"Yeah, sometimes this school can be confusing. If you need more help come to me or Shawn. He's super sweet, right honey?" Shawn looks up and nods.

"Ta. I'm Ionia Berry. I know weird name,my parents were hippies." She smiles and walks into the classroom.

"I like her,she's adorable." I giggle. Shawn nods.

"Sure. If you're into weird,confused and Australian. Actually that's not a bad combination."

"Very funny. What a knee slapper." I say sarcastically, smacking my bare knee softly.

"Shut up Belle." He laughs as we walk into the class.

****
