Aubree'
"Bre, get up. Its time to go." I hear Lexx saying to me as she softly shakes me. I open my eyes and look at the clock. It says "4:15". I yawn as I sit up and rub my eyes. I look around our now empty room. We had to sleep on the floor last night because they overnighted all of our furniture and big boxes to ATL so that our house could be settled by the time we got there this afternoon.
"Yo, I cant believe we're actually moving. This is all too surreal." I say standing up and picking up my palate covers and putting them neatly in my suitcase. Lexx had already put hers up and was already dressed. Now she was putting her curl texturizer in her hair. I guess shes going with her big natural curls and Chinese bangs today. I flat ironed my hair last night so Im keeping it straight with a side bang. I stood up and headed to brush my teeth amd wash my face. We took showers last night so we could have our personals packed already. When I was done, I placed my toothbrush and towel in a plastic bag and placed them in my suitcase. I grabbed my clothes and put them on. Lexx and I were both rocking Adidas track pants, hers blue, mine red, with cropped black Adidas hoodies and black Adidas to match. Yeah, we are those twins that like to dress somewhat alike. Not exactly alike, but somewhat. When I was done, I helped Lexx clean up the room and bathroom. When we were done Raquan came to the door and looked around our room.
"Damn, it looks so empty. Just like every other room in this house now." he says leaning on the door frame.
"I know right. It's so wierd." Lexx says sighing. I nod my head in agreement.
"Kids! The cab is here. It's time to go." mom yells from downstairs.
"Well, I guess thats our cue." Lexx says grabbing her carry on and her suitcase. She looks around the room one more time before following Ray, with his bags, down stairs. I grab my carry on and suitcase as well. I sigh and look around the room one last time. I then think about when we first moved here and dad helped Lexx and I paint our room.
"Daddy, Daddy! Can we paint a pretty flower over here?" I asked jumping on his lap as he, Lexx and I sat on the floor setting our paint up. Mom was at work.
"Sure Princess, whatever you girls want." he says kissing my head.
"Daddy," Lexx says picking up a big rolling brush. "I wanna put hearts over here in pink!" she says laughing. Dad laughs and pulls us both onto his lap and kissed us both. We smile and giggle.
"Daddys Babygirls can paint their room however they want. You two are old enough to choose what you want." she says smiling at us. We were 7 at the time.
"Yay!" we squeal jumping on him, hugging him. "We love you Daddy!"
"Daddy loves you too."
"Bre! Hurry up!" Ray yells up to me. I shake my head and laugh at my memory.
"Im coming!" I yell turning off the light and heading down the stairs.

"We have about an hour left on the flight." Bre whispers to me yawning. I roll my eyes and lean my head on the window. We've been on this plane for 4 hours, and Im getting sick of it. And I hate turbulance. It makes me nauseous.
"I cant wait to get off this plane." I say placing my Beats on and closing my eyes. I didnt realize I'd dozed off until I hear the faint voice of the pilot saying to turn off all electronics and buckle up. We did as we were told as the plane started to land. Bre held my hand because she knew my fear of turbulance.
When we landed, we got our bags from baggage claim and caught a cab to our new house. On our way there we passed a lot of big mansions and ranch houses. Ray, Bre & I looked at them all with wide eyes. Then we slowed down as we turned into a rounded driveway and stopped. We all looked at eachother in disbelief.
"We're here!" Sean said as he smiled back at us. We rushed out the car and our mouths dropped. We were living in a mansion. A real live mansion. Whats kind of job does Sean have?
"Beautiful isnt it?" mom says placing a hand on my shoulder. "Because of Seans good work, theyve promoted him to President and they insisted he and his family lived like royalty. We thought smaller, but the company had purchased the house and paid it off before we could have a say." she says smiling. "Now lets go inside and check out our new home!" she claps her hands and grabs Seans hand as he leads her into the house. We grab our bags and head inside.
"This is beautiful!" I say gasping as we enter the house. A foyer, kitchen, dining room, living room, spiral staircase, and so much more. This house is amazingly beautiful.
" Head upstairs to your rooms. Im sure you'll love them." Sean says smiling. He didnt have to tell us twice. We all races up the stairs with our bags in tow to a long hall.
"Yo, this door has my name on it." Ray says referring to the door that had his name on it in basketball letters. He smiled and opened it revealing a Basketball themed room with all of his things set up already nice and neat. "Damn this is nice." he says plopping down on his bed.
"Theres my room," Bre says heading to hers in which her name was a sparkly red with stars surrounding it. When she opened it she squealed. Her room was red and black with leopard print all around. It was gorgeous as hell. All her things were nicely set up just like Raquans were. I then turned and looked at the door with my name on it. My name was in sparkly purple with silver hearts around it. I held my breathe as I opened the door. My mouth nearly hit the ground.
"Oh my God..." I say in shock as I enter. My rooms theme is music and dance. My two most favorite things on the world. My walls were purple and silver with music notes on every wall. One wall was a collage of ballet and hip hop dancers which I totally loved. It was amazing. Absolutely breathe taking. I sat down my things and sat on my bed admiring my new room. This whole moving thing is coming off to a great start. It's better than we'd thought it would be, so far. Honestly,I think I could get used to it. It'll just take some time. Welcome to Atlanta, the new home of the Smith family.
