The Twin Project

Eliza

"Eliza time for school!" My mother said as she shook me awake. "Come one sweetie, you have to wake up now."

"I'm up. I'm up!" I said rolling over in my bed. This was our morning routine. She'd tell me I'd have to wake up and I'd roll over. After like 10 minutes she'd give up and call the maid to get me up. Then the maid would give up and pull the covers off my bed and force me to get up. My maid was my best friend and basically the mother figure in my life. My mother was rich and worked a million dollar business. She was always working and she never really had much time for me other than our morning argument. My maid, Kendra, was always there for me.

"I picked out a nice dress for your first day of school. I think you'll like it, but, if you lay in bed all day you'll never get to see it." Kendra told me. I knew she was just trying to get me out of bed but it still worked. I hoped out of my bed and walked over to my walk in closet. On the chair in the middle of the closet/room was a beautiful pink dress with flowers all over it. It was perfect! I tried on the dress and made my way to the shoe closet to find the perfect pair of shoes. And of course there was a pink pair right on the second wall. I happily skipped downstairs to have Kendra do my hair and make-up.

"You look amazing Eliza." Kendra said as she finished curling my long blonde hair. "You're going to make all the boys drop dead." I laughed. The limo was out front and ready to take me to my private school. I hugged Kendra goodbye, grabbed my designer bag and went out to the limo.

"Good morning Ben." I said to the driver while closing the door.

"Are you ready to start your senior year?" Ben asked.

"Of course. I'm sad it's going to be over. I'm really going to miss it. The best years of your life right?" I answered him. And that was the truth. I have the best high school life. I'm popular, I have the best friends, all my teachers are amazing, my classes and easy and interesting, it's just great! I'm going to miss it all so much. Although, I have a feeling college will be just as great.

I arrived at school to be greeted to my two best friends, Jessica and Sarah. Gosh, they looked amazing. They always did. Jessica was tall and skinny with long brown hair. Her legs looked perfect in everything she wore, she just looked perfect. Sarah had short black hair and although she wasn't the tallest she still looked amazing. When she wore heels she was just tall enough to look average height. Ugh, I wish I was them.

"Hey babe!" Jessica called as she came over to hug me. Even her voice was perfect. Ugh!

"Hey!" I said fake kissing her cheek. It was kind of our thing.

"OMG I missed you this summer! How was your trip to France?" Sarah asked. Honestly, she always seemed kinda fake. But I love her.

"It was great. Would have been better if you guys were there." We walked through the halls and everyone looked at us. Everyone wanted to be us. As we walked everyone moved out of the way. We were it. I wouldn't trade this feeling for anything in the world. I loved school.

The day seemed to go by really fast although, almost each class was the same. The teachers would introduce themselves, they would talk about the course, and I couldn't help but make mental notes of which classes I would need to pay the most attention in. It was sad to think that in 182 days this would all be over. Time went by way too fast. I wish it would just slow down. I'd look at the clock for a second and then what feels like only a few minutes later the bell would ring.

The last bell of the day rang and I slowly made it to my locker and met my friends. We walked to our limos and went our different ways. I needed time away from them. They always made me feel bad about myself. I guess I need new friends. Someone to make me feel good about myself. And not a boyfriend. I could have any boy I wanted. Hell, I could have any girl I wanted. Well if I went that way. I just want a true friend.

I went in my house and of course my mother wasn't home. So, I went upstairs to my room to start my homework. If I could get it done now then I could sit and watch youtube all night. This was my night routine. I might live a glamorous life. But when it comes down to it, I'm just another girl who is obsessed with a youtube user. I'm just a normal girl living a totally un-normal live.
