This is a story that I'll tell when I'm much older, I'll tell it to my nieces and newphews, I'll tell my neighbours' kid, I'll tell each and everyone I meet. I'm a girl who lives on her own. It doesn't take much courage to move out when all you come home to is a trashed apartment with a fat kid sitting in the middle of the room, your mother no where to be found, and a ton of chores left undone. I was just a freshman and I've decided to move out on my own.

Deciding to move out is not what's hard about the plan, the part where you actually need to pay adults actual money for actual stuff such as water bills, utility bills and apartment fees are the hardest. That day I stood in front of the housing agency eye widened as the prices of rents are sky-high I might not even have that much money when I graduated college. So I prospone the plan and here comes the juicey details, I didn't.

As much as I like to admit, I'm much more mature than the other kids at my school that are too caught up with the latest gossip or the on-going, off-going relationship in the popular circle, I have had much more to concern about than Ryan and Charmaine's relationship or how One Direction is having their 3 years anniversery few weeks ago. I have to keep my grades up in order to pay for the school fees. It's not like I have a choice or anything, everyone couldn't areless about their education since much most likely everyone in my school are loaded and I presume they don't even have to work til they're thirty.

Enough about my schoolmates, I'm the only one you should be concernd of in this story. Though I've never really been in the centre of attention of any source, I'm usually the kid that sit by her own during lunch peiod and annoys the living hell out of the people that trys to communicate with me. I used to have few close friends, Alexis and Jasmine. Alexis moved out of town last year and Jasmine became real close to another popular girl and there's pathetic me crying in the corner. I never had a happy ending, never in a million years.

Alexis is a really smart girl, she is a mix and everyone looked at her differently, as much as I enjoyed being friends with her, sometimes I felt small next to this almost goddess like friend, awesome friend base, angelic voice, smart and funny personailty, having previllage as a mix and all that jazz. We would sing songs on the way to class, we'd have lunch together and have sleepovers, I don't mind if I wasn't her very best bud since I'm suprise she picked to be friends with me in the first place. I was never a people's person, but she's always the centre of everyone's attention. However she was never popular though, she told me she absolutely dispite popularity so she decide to step out, I believed her.

Jasmine on the other hand, could never leave the popular circle since her childhood friend Vianne is one of the crowd. I've met Vianne, never had a strong impression of that girl, she was nice enough not to pick on me though. Jasmine loves to sing and had a great hand handling with instrucments, she has great taste in music and we used to sing all the time. Soon after Alexis left, she hangs out with Vianne 24/7, not like I mind or anything, it does sting a bit looking at your good friend ditching you for someone better.

I'm the type of people you ran into in hallways and never put much effort in remembering their names. I've always loved reading stories and watching movies since I don't believe in real life fairytales happening to me, all the cliche bad boy going after good girl story always interested me though never really happened. Whoever with a little social status will never date out of the popularity circle, it's like an unwritten rule in the rule book.

That day I decided to move out on my own, I realised my mother's close friend Carrie was much more awared of my situation being a social worker herslef, she deals with teenage crisises every day. She offered a shelter for me to stay before I'm actually financially able to pay for my own rent, I gracefully accepted the offer and before I know I'm moving in with her family.

Carrie had a huge family and George, her husband and her hae great jobs and a tight relationship, resulted in having 5 kids in the house, 4 teenage guys to be excact. First we have Blake, being the eldest, he's just 3 years older than I am, gifted apperance and lean body. Beach blonde hair and blue eyes, typical quater back material. Then we have Cole, being the second in the family, in fact just a year below Blake, same good looks runs the family, brown hair and green orbes, captian of the school basketball team, total playboy. Being the identical twin of Cole, Mason is a much more reserved person, he had good grades and have a passion in composing music, and an angelic voice, though he was never really popular but he's in the crowd. Last but not least their little bro Carter, captain of the baseball team, same year as I am, in fact we are in the same class too. But he never really bothered to show up anyways. What's different about Carter is that he has jet black hair with eyes as blue as the beautiful ocean after a strom, yet he's a total boy toy taking after his two brothers. With that awfully detailed background check I did, I moved in with the Parkers.
