From Your Screen To Your School

Chapter 1

          Growing up, I've never been like everyone else. Ever since I was born I wasn't like most kids. I was a twin. Most kids wish they had a twin, someone who looks exactly like you, a mirror image. They are your best friend and will always by your side. I was the small percentage of kids who actually got to be  twin. If you think that's the only unordinary thing in my life, you're wrong.

          Three days after I was born, my mom put me and my sister up for adoption. I know you think you could never give up your children and that she abandoned us, but the truth is that she couldn't afford to raise a child, much less two. She was a single parent because my douche bag of a dad left my mom when he found out she had a baby. She wanted us to have a normal happy childhood, without having to worry about rent, food, and other money problems that little kids shouldn't have to think about. 

          The only condition when she gave us up was that we had to stay together.  She knew that the only family we had were each other. So, on the first week of us being alive, we were given to a foster home. My foster parents were a nice couple in their 30s and already had a son in elementary school. They lived in a quiet neighborhood with an old golden retriever in a big house at the end of the street.

          My sister Kenzie and I lived in that house for a long time and for all we knew, our foster family was our real family. After five happy years with our foster family, they decided to finally adopt us. Then when we turned ten we got our own cellphones. My brother Austin, thought it would be a good idea but my parents were against it. In the end, my brother won and that Christmas we got our own phones. Little did we know that gift would change our lives. We installed all the latest apps but there was one trending app called YouTube caught our eyes. We made videos together and after a couple months we blew up. We got tons of amazing fans and lots and lots of attention.

          After we got our start we started modelling, then acting, then singing. We soon became a household name to teens everywhere. We were known as the cutest twins on the internet and we became more and more popular by the day. But after four years of traveling, interviews, and fame I soon missed school and having friends. I missed living a normal life where I went to gymnastics practice and got to just hang out with my friends. Turns out that Kenzie felt the same way so we told our parents how we felt. They supported us and decided to let us try out school for a couple years and see how it goes. So now we're back to present day and I'm just about to start my very first day of school in 4 years. Wish me luck!

Beep Beep Beep Be- I tapped my phone screen to shut off my alarm. I groaned as I slowly got out of my soft warm bed. "Why is there an alarm?" I whispered to myself. I tried to think of something we have to do today but nothing came up. Suddenly a flash of memories appeared. "Omg!!! Kenzie wake up. We have school today! Hurry up or we're gonna be late!" I screamed as I woke up a tired Kenzie. I ran downstairs to wake the rest of the family up. A surge of panic went through my brain as I thought of all the worst things that could happen today. I bolted across the clean wooden floor to the kitchen. I got to the kitchen to see three tired faces staring at a very out of breath Bella. "Good morning Bella," Austin said with a piece of toast in his hand as he took another bite. Mom and dad were sipping their coffees as I stared at them all with confusion.

"How did you get up so early. Its like 5 in the morning!"

"Uhh actually it's 6 and this is what normal people have to do everyday. Now get your tired butt upstairs and get dressed before you're late to school,"  Austin said without even looking up from his phone.

I stared in shock as I dragged myself upstairs to my room. Is this what normal people have to deal with everyday? What did I get myself into? I open my door to see Kenzie all dressed and prepared to go. She was wearing a pink top that said "I'm Flawless" and a pair of skinny jeans that made her actually look flawless. Her blond hair was put down and her pink backpack was around her shoulder. "Hurry up, your clothes are on your desk, Bells. I'm so excited. Oh my gosh I acually can't believe I'm going to school!" Kenzie squealed as she bolted downstairs to get breakfast.

        I slowly walked over to my desk, like Kenzie said, there was a neatly folded pile of clothes waiting for me there. I grabbed the first piece of my outfit and saw that it was the exact same top as Kenzie's except mine was a baby blue color. I put on the next thing sitting on the pile of clothing, which were a pair of shorts and then kept going and soon I was dressed. I looked at myself in the mirror and I looked presentable. I smiled as I stared at myself who know how long. I put my hair in a side braid and I walked down the stairs more and more confident then I was a couple minutes ago.

"Hurry up Bella! We have to leave now or we're gonna be late." Kenzie said

"Ok Ok I'm coming!"

      I scurried down the stairs because I knew if I didn't get down there fast, Kenzie would have my head on a platter. Kenzie was the type of person who hates being late and is always super organized. I mean that girl literally will straighten every loose paper and clean every little crumb off the table. As I ran outside, a warm ray of sunlight hit my skin. I had traveled so much, all over the world, I completely forgot how sunny and hot California is. I snapped out of the little moment of happiness as I felt little brown eyes glare into my very soul. I turned to the car to see my mom on her phone, probably checking emails while Kenzie was giving me her death glare. I ran over to the car, which was already out of the driveway. Before I opened the car door and prepared myself for a car ride full of "oh my gosh I'm so late" and "I can't be late on my first day" or occasionally a " What will people think of me" with a bunch of grunts, groans, sighs, and a couple death glares at me, in between. I took a deep breath silently praying that the day won't be a complete mess and gripped my fingers against the cold car door and pulled.
