"How is your hair so big?" I ask my friend Mia with a laugh as she tries to her giant mop of curly hair into a pony tail.

"I know everything about everyone, so it's just full of secrets." She giggles and winks at me. We laugh and head to her house. We had an art project together, and she has more acrylic paints than I do, but I have better pencils and markers than she does so we just decided to pull them all together and work on it at her house.

I've always loved art, it was a nice way to let everything going on just fade away for a few moments, and I would put all of my stress and feeling into that drawing. (Jenna's pies who?) It was a calm way of taking my anger or sadness out without taking it out on one of my annoying siblings. You could just get lost in a painting, not caring about anything else but making that picture perfect. That's why my hands are always stained with ink and paint so much, because that's all I did. My room is filled with different paintings, each telling a different story and filled with different emotions. Some were vibrant neons with a happy and and exciting feeling, some soft pastels with a calm and carefree atmosphere, and some with dark colors and shadows that had a sad or depressing feeling, or just sharp and messy with a angry or stressed vibe. I love drawing so much that I sometimes get in trouble for turning in papers covered in stress doodles, or for getting paint on my clothes after mom just washed them, or how much my room smelled like paint and permanent markers. Art is just apart of me.

I've never been to Mia's house before, so this was going to be interesting. She opens the door and we are met with yelling and shouting that seemed to come from upstairs.

"Excuse my brother, he gets pretty loud when he's playing video games." She groaned.

"I didn't know you had a brother." I said as we walked up the stairs.

"Technically step-brother. My dad married my step-mom when I was 14." She said. We walked down the hall and passed a room that had its door open that seemed to be her brothers room. She stood outside the door and sighed. "Yo dip shit, could you keep it down? We got a project to do."

He looked up. "Sorry sis, that's not possible." Then he saw me. "Oh hey! Who's this Lei?"

"I told you not to call me that when I'm around friends!!" She yelled,embarrassed. I just snickered, and she sighed. "This is (y/n), try not so scare them away. (Y/n), this is Micheal, my annoying brother."

I blush and wave. Damn, he was cute.

He nods. "Nice meeting ya y/n!" Then he turned back to his video games. Mia sighed and we went in her room which was right across from Micheal's. I set down my art stuff and plop down on her bed.

"Sooo, what do you want to do for the project?" She asked.

I shrugged. "Coach Howard said that we just had to take something and turn it into a cartoon." (That's actually the name of the art teacher we had this year, he was really cool.)
I yawned. "The thing is, I don't know what to draw." As if I'm cue, a big ball of black and white fur came tumbling into the room and jumped onto the bed and started licking me.

"No! Bell, down!" Mia scolded the dog. The dog jumped back on the floor and sat down. She was a beautiful, very fluffy, black and white border collie.
"Sorry, she gets excited when she meets new people. But y/n, meet Southern Bell!"

I ruffled her fur "Hi pretty girl!" Then in came a big brown German Shepard. (Sorry I just really like adding dogs to the stories.)

"And that's her sister, Texas Ranger. Come here Ranger!" She giggled. I looked at the two dogs and all of a sudden had an idea.
