Warning lol, I created this story back in 2014 and it is currently 2020 as I am going back and revising this. So if you are low-key stuck in 2014 like me, you should enjoy this story and if you've been here before, some things have definitely changed throughout the story, but nothing extreme. Anywho, I hope you enjoy!!
Ariana's P.O.V.
The sounds of laughter, slamming doors and heavy footsteps against the stairs awoke me from my sleep. I glanced over at the clock hanging on the wall that read 8:00 am. The air in my room was so cold my skin filled with goosebumps from the lack of coverage after sitting up. The room itself was predominately empty due to the boxes stacked high against the wall.
After gazing out of my slightly opened window for a minute, I finally decided to get up and get ready. After running the shower, I stood in the mirror for a minute allowing the water to heat up. While picking my shower playlist on Spotify, the notification bar buzzed with texts from family members and old friends wishing me off as if I was never returning.
"Ariana! Hurry up we are heading out soon!" My stepmom, Lily yelled on the outside of my door. Choosing a playlist to listen to, I jumped in the shower continuing to do my everyday morning routine.
-
"When are you gonna focus on the important things in life, like obtaining an associate degree in business." Lily says after thanking Ellie for pouring creamer into her coffee.
"When are you gonna realize that that's not what I wanna do?" I quietly said reaching for my waffles out the toaster, Ellie beginning to pour the syrup on them.
"You don't have to" I said grabbing the bottle.
"Would you let her do her job" My stepmom snarks from the table. Her attitude in the morning is poor, similar to her everyday mood. Ellie was my mother's assistant, sometimes working as the family's servant before my mother passed away.
"Alright alright, let's keep calm, good morning sweetheart" My dad says entering the kitchen kissing me on the forehead. He then leaned on the wall sipping his drink as Lily wrapped her hands around his waist.
"I was just making sure Ariana is sure about her major"
"Well it's not like I can change it today" I said rolling my eyes digging into breakfast.
"Obviously, but you can after your first semester is over."
"Do like communications, psychology, oooh Nursing! I could definitely see you in some cute scrubs" she added on scrunching up her nose in excitement.
"I'm doing art and music, and that's it. Besides its what my mom would've wanted me to do, and unlike you, she gives good advice" I spoke nonchalantly.
"Too bad she isn't-"
"Okay! What do you say we hit the road now, yea?" she was cut off by my dad clapping his hands ordering the conversation to end. Part of me wanted her to finish that sentence. She never fails to piss me off every time we cross paths. It is a well-known hatred between me and her and one day I hope my dad realizes he is in a relationship with a total bitch. She envied me, I wanted to express myself through music and art and she hated that for some unknown reason. My dad on the other hand always supported me, one hundred percent. He was the one who actually taught me how to play guitar.
"Well anyway, we need to go now so you can get to your dorm. And I need to get to work, so does your father'' she snapped, all I did was mumble, finishing off my last bite of food.
My two younger twin brothers, Dylan and Derek shuffled down the stairs after being called by dad. They helped carry down some bags and suitcases and we all headed out to the car.
''Ari, you ready for college'' My brother Dylan asks as he jogs up next to me taking one of the bags I was carrying.
''Yeah, I'm a bit nervous. '' I replied with a smile.
''Don't be, you deserved this and you'll be fine'' he says chuckling a bit. He's pretty mature for his age.
During the whole ride, Dylan and Derek were complaining about how squished they were, and Lily was suffocating us all with her strong scented perfume. it was even more horrible because the windows were up.
I watched the giant black gates open and close as we exited. Laying down, I began to get lost in my own thoughts. It's crazy to think that I'm going to be in full control of what goes on from here on out.
Hope you liked this first chapter its more of an intro. (edited)
