Sam’s Pov

Another new town, a new house, a brand new dad. I guess mom needed a new change. She hasn’t stayed with a single guy since I was born. A different happy family photo with a new dad every birthday, Christmas and any other holiday she deemed necessary. And that’s just when she was home, my sister Alexandra, my brother Zac and I all learned not to get to comfortable at where we are. I’ve been to 22 schools and I’ve been in 32 cities.

 I’ve needed to go back to the states. That’s where my father is, Mom really doesn’t like that I take Alexandra and Zac yearly to the states. We go during the summer to see him. Right now, we just moved from Melbourne, Australia to London, England.

 My mom out of the blue decides that she wants to move out to London to meet this guy she met on the internet. It sounds questionable. I’m kind of happy to move though, I’ve met and mingled with all the cute guys in Melbourne. I’ve got to venture out and fine a hot guy with an accent.

I’m hoping to let go a little. My mom wants me to fall in love so I can feel the happiness that love can bring me and whatever she wants to call it. Love is so unreal and fake, it doesn’t exist. Yeah I’ve dated a few guys, none were too serious though. Love just doesn’t exist for some people. You get one shot at it, and most of the time your one shot fails. Just like my parents’ marriage, you eventually fall out of love, destroying everything as you do. Everything goes from a two story brick house with a loving mom and dad, three obedient amazing kids, a bunch of pets and then it happened. After it happened, we turned into an apartment and a town house, a sympathy fish (which died a day later) a rebel kid, a mentally overchallanged kid and one who could have gone somewhere. And who lead this tiny heard but an alcoholic father and a cougar for a mother.

            I’m almost done packing. We leave for London in the morning and I am so not excited. We each got to mail our stuff to the house. I’m hoping that my stuff is already there when I get there, I’ve got to be ready to unpack so I can start school on Monday morning. Hopefully I can find a hot guy or a good party.

            I can’t wait for my mom to settle down. For good. All this moving around its bad for Alexandra and Zac. He is starting as a junior next year and he can’t get recruited for scholarships until we can start to settle location wise. I think my mom needs to finally let us settle for the rest of high school. Alex is getting ready to finish middle school. She’s a gymnast. This is her last year of public school. She’s got a real good shot at making it, that’s if she doesn’t make her big acting break by then. What can I say Alex is just really talented and is going to get famous in one way or another. Whether she becomes an Olympic gymnast or in a movie or on Broadway, She is destined for greatness and she can’t achieve the Olympics changing gyms every time we move cities. Some of the cities didn’t have gyms so she had to work twice as hard to meet the pre-olympic requirements. But she’s not behind, she’s actually ahead of most girls despite her going to public schools and not homeschooling and training.

            I think I’m going to have my mom agree to stay here. This is my fifth high school and I am only a junior. Not many people know this, but Zac is my twin. I claim to be the oldest but he is older than me by almost two hours. I claim oldest so I don’t have standards to live up to when I fail at something. He’s the football quarterback and set to be valedictorian with a 4.9 weighted GPA. Alexandra is the Olympic gymnast and theater genius. I however have been arrested 4 times and have a 4.8 GPA. I know you expected like a 1.2 GPA or something, but no. School is my escape and my only way of getting Grandpa Ian’s trust fund released to me at 18. So like two years until then. I know I just barely turned 16. I skipped a year, or two.

                        I’m sleeping at Tara’s house tonight so I can have her drive me to the airport in the morning. I’m going a week early to settle into our new house. That means a week alone in a mansion. It’s supposedly a 12 bedroom 10 bathroom house. Or a giant apartment.

            I slowly drift off to sleep dreaming of brown haired boys who seem to haunt my dreams and subconscious thoughts. Hmm. I wonder if this demigod looking dream guy is in London. I hope he is.
