Chapter 2
We drove down the long road where the tall Palm Trees were, it felt cool if I do say so myself. "It's like the movies!" Rae shouted above the radio that was playing Confident by Justin Bieber. "This is my jam!" I yelled and tried to dance while sitting down, i failed.

"oh no no oh no no she's confident." i sing in tune. "I'm confident BITCH!" Rach shouted. I laughed hysterically. Sometimes I didn't understand her. She could go from sweet and petite to loud and roudy in seconds.

We made it to what I assumed was our apartment. "oh damnmmnn bro is this our crib?!" Rae yelled in her American accent again. I couldn't help but laugh,she was so small yet she could speak for England.

Our apartment was quite big for only two people but i wasn't complaining. There were flowers leading all the way up the foot path towards the door which I thought was pretty. It looked big from the outside, I just couldn't wait to get in.

"This is your apartment ladies, your furniture, wardrobe and essentials are already set up as a gift from Live Big." my chauffeur explained. "woaah thank you so much" I said in awe as he handed us two keys.

"Hey MTV and welcome to my crib!" Rae said, mocking the people on 'Teen Cribs'. She opened the door and we were instantly hit with the aroma of candles. 'mmmm' i thought to myself, taking in the fresh smell.

"oh my gosh this is so amazing!" i screech. I looked around and saw a big living room on the right with the kitchen straight ahead and the stairs in the far right hand corner. "I need the best room!"

"Let's go check them out!" Rae said already half way up the stairs. I looked behind and saw our chauffeurs bringing our luggage in. "THANK YOU!" I call in the distance and run after Rachael.

There were 5 Doors to enter, a toilet, a bathroom and 3 rooms. I picked the room with an En Suite and Rachael picked one with the best view. "Oh Damn Girl this is so tight!" she continued in her American accent. I am seriously considering calling a psychiatrist because I think she is diagnosed with some LA virus shit or something. I laughed at her and we set our selves time to sort our clothes out. We needed to Settle Down.

"2 Hours okay let's go!" I ran back to my room and got started. Bras, knickers, pants, tops, shirts all in the right places in only 1 Hour! Everything was in colour order, hung and folded neatly. Yaas I had an extra hour so i collapsed on my bed and drifted off.

"Girl wake your ass up! It's time to introduce ourselves to the neighbours!" She went back to her normal voice for 3 seconds. I was anxious to meet the neighbours, what if they don't like us or something?

We ran down the curled stairs and out the massive door before Rae's chauffeur could start his sentence.
We walked down our front porch and up the left neighbours porch. It was decorated with petals on each side of the walk path and her door was a royal red colour. Rae knocked..

A lady about average height opened the door. She had light blue eyes and long brown hair that she played with as she spoke. "Oh hey girls you're finally here! I've been waiting all day, the men said I have 2 beautiful neighbours but I didn't expect you to be this beautiful!" She had a slight southern accent which began to have the LA twang.

Interesting.

She grabbed our hands and shook them one after the other.
"Hey there" I said shaking her hand.
"Omg hey!" Rae said. Typical of her to act like she's on stimulants.
"Thanks so much! So are you." She continued.
"We love it here already it's nice to meet you....ummm?" waiting for her to give me her name.
"Shannon Anderson, it's lovely to meet you too, would you like to come in?"she asked politely. She was wearing a white flowy dress with casual slippers.
"Sure!!" We both said together.
We walked in awe and saw that her house was set up like ours. It was so beautiful with meaningful canvases on different walls.
'If you Believe, you will Achieve' I read to myself. I love that, gonna get me one once we find out our way around this place.
"Have you been to town yet?" She asked while plaiting and unplaiting her hair subconsciously.
"No we are planning on going later on once we get familiar with every thing." She said before I could even think of an answer. I just smiled so I didn't look like a creep.
"Thanks for your help Shan, we'll see you around!" I shouted before we exited.

'Over to the next neighbour' I thought as we made our way up their front porch. A tall figure opened the door and smiled at us like she already knew us. Damn people are way more polite over here than in England.
"Hello there, we just moved in next to you so we came to introduce ourselves!" I explained. She had short brown hair which looked like it had been dyed a few times. She had on an Aztec skirt with a plain white top and a gold necklace. She looked slightly older than us.

"Hey girls I'm Julia Freeman, I was told you two would be coming. how are you?" She had a sweet voice with a slight German twist in her accent.

"We're good thanks! Nice to meet you! You seem lovely." Rae spoke up, mesmerised by her outfit.

We got back to our apartment at around 8pm and ordered pizza. We had a 55' flat screen TV, yaaas.
"What should we watch?" I asked while stuffing my face. What? A girl can't eat like a pig?
"Let's watch a movie.....FROZEN PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!" I laughed at her immiturity. Although Frozen was my fave too. The way Queen Elsa dramatically takes her hair out and says 'the cold never bothered me anyway.' She totally SLAYS.

We watched Frozen for the rest of the night until around 10:30pm. We were sitting on the couch with blankets around us.I don't remember what happened after so I'm guessing we fell asleep. Typical.
