I woke up and rolled out of my bed landing on the floor with a loud thud.
"The daily struggle of having a single bed,"I muttered to myself before standing up and walking over to my wardrobe to pick an outfit. I was a surprise so I have to have the smaller room where there isn't enough room for a double bed but to be honest, I couldn't care less. Emerald and I are identical apart from our eyes, hers are a deep green colour whereas mine are a bright blue. You can kind of guess from the fact that my name is Sapphire and Emerald's is well... Emerald. Today I chose to wear some black leggings and a baggy jumper which had the Hogwarts badge on it. Then I opened my door -which was covered with hp, pj, hg and tfios posters- and walked across the hallway to my sisters room. I knocked on the door and waited patiently until I heard her say,"Come in."
"Hey Em, um do u have any spare concealer cause I've lost mine." She turned around and I looked at her outfit. A cute white crop top which was laced and some denim shorts, I've got to admit, she looked good.
"Yeah sure, it's in my drawer and it's the third one down," then she touched my shoulder and I looked up, "yeah you really do need some don't you." She said while nodding apparently concerned.
I rolled my eyes, "Anyway, see ya bitch!" I said while leaving the room with the concealer. At breakfast, Emerald was texting Aiden her boyfriend while eating some toast while I was finishing my maths homework.
"Saph, it's not like you to not of done your homework,"mum said while leaning over to my shoulder to see what it was.
I shrugged,"Well I guess I was busy last night." Which strictly speaking was true since I was watching TFIOS and I had to recover for about an hour afterwards. Mum nodded although she didn't look convinced. I then made my way upstairs to get my bag ready for school. 15 minutes later Emerald and I were in the car and on our way to Santa Monica High. When we got there Emerald was dropped off at the entrance as usual and then I was dropped off at the back. The reason we do this is because Emerald is too embarrassed that people could think that I am her. Too be honest, I couldn't be more bothered. In fact, I would hate for people to think she was me. I met up with Finn and Carl and we made our way to 10th grade maths. Math's my least favourite subject and I suck at it but Carls really smart so I guess that's always helpful. Carl has longish blonde hair which he wears a beanie with and green eyes with a few freckles on his face. Jay has dark hair and blue eyes and me? I have reddish hair and as I already said, blue eyes. I don't mind too much not having a girl friend that I can fan girl with because I have Instagram for that! The teacher droned on about turning percentages into improper fractions and blah blah blah...
The bell rang and Jay and I made our way to English which I enjoyed quite a lot. Today we had to do a one minute drama piece with a partner but the teacher had to choose. Just to my luck, I was paired with the biggest jock in the grade, Will.
"How about we do a play about basketball." He said while 'flexing' his muscles.
"How about no." I replied.
An hour later we had to perform and this is about it went:
The Tennis Balls written by Will.
Will: My balls has come off!
[Saphire rolls eyes at predicted laughs]
Saphire: You mean your tennis balls have come off your poster about tennis.
Will: That's what I just said, god Saph listen.
[Saphire moves forward and takes tennis balls and the poster from Will]
[Uses glue and sticks them back on]
Will: Oh my! My balls are stuck back on! Thankyou Saphire.
[Will grabs Saphire and hugs her real tight saying how thankful he is.]

"Ew get off me, that bit was not in there when you showed it to me!" I said while shoving Will off of me.
"Looks like someone's into you." Teases Rachel who is an absolute bitch. "Owww are you jealous Rach?" I said while grabbing her cheek like a little child, "Hey Will, Rachel's interested in you." Everyone laughed and Rachel turned bright red.
"I'll get you for this!" She whispered threateningly in my ear. Just then Jay grabbed me from behind and pulled me towards him.
"Jay! What is it?" I said impatiently because some girls who I would never talk to just asked me to spend break with them.
"What the hell was Will doing with you!"
"Why are you so bothered? It's not like your my older brother and you need to guide me through life, I can do what I want anyway." I walked away from him and out the classroom door towards the girls who had called me. I don't know why I was getting so defensive all of a sudden.
"Hi!" I smiled seeing the girls.
"Hey!" The blonde haired one said, "You were great back there."
"No ones ever spoken to Rachel like that before!" Said the brown haired one.
I shrugged, "Well some bitches need to be told."
"You look exactly like Emerald Johnson. That's so weird!" The blonde haired one said.
"Ha ha, well identical twins usually do look alike!" I said laughing.
"Oh. My. God. Your twins with the Emerald Johnson! No fair." The brown haired one said.
"It's not that great." I admitted. The two girls whispered for a bit to each other and I'm guessing it was about me, hopefully it's not too bad gossip.
"I'm Laura by the way." Said the brown haired one.
"And I'm Kirsty." The blonde haired one said.
"I'm Saphire."
"Its always bee just the two of but since this is high school and everything changes, we were wondering if you wanted to make a trio with us?" Laura said smiling when she finished.
"Wow. I'd love to! Thanks guys." And then Laura put an arm around Kirsty and they both held out there hands for me to join them. I did and out of the corner of my eye I saw Jay and Carl staring at me and I just wanted them to leave me alone and stop holding me back.
"Okay girls, tomorrow night is my parents anniversary and they're having a party. So you girls are invited." Said Kirsty.
"That's awesome I'm totally coming! Do you think you can come Saph?"asked Laura.
"Tomorrow night..." I said thinking what I was doing. Tomorrow Jay had invited me round to his because it was his brothers 8th birthday,"I'm doing nothing. So what time should we come?"
******
The next evening I went home from school with Laura and Kirsty. Laura's mum dropped us off at Kirsty's house which was right next to the sea and let's just say it was amazing. It was a massive white building with large windows. There is a stone path which leads to the door under an archway made out of bush. There were all kinds of flowers too. We walked under the archway and went inside. There was a grand staircase and when you looked up it carried on for three floors! To my right was a glass door and to my left was an archway which I could see the kitchen from. Kirsty took us upstairs where there was a flat screen TV and a sofa bed. We climbed up another flight of stairs and went into her room. It wasn't a room at all. There was a little mini kitchen with dining tables and everything.
"These are my rooms. Through there is a living room,"she pointed to archway on our left,"and this,"she walked through the door on our right,"this is my room."
I followed her through the door and my jaw dropped. Inside was a circular bed with red coveters and behind that were windows which you could see the sea. It was beautiful and I was well jel. Above the bed was a circular window which had electric blinds.
"That's not all," said Kirsty taking my wrist and leading me out the door, Laura following. We walked past the mini kitchen and through some glass doors,"It's my very own pool!"
Her pool was amazing and it was separated from the sea by a very thin glass wall which ended so only the occasional wave could pass.
"I love it!" I said to her and then we went to her walk in wardrobe to get changed for the party.
At the party it was only adults apart from us which meant it was kinda boring (which is saying a lot 'cause I never get invited to party's.) After a whole Kirsty suggested we could hang out in the jacuzzi and we were all for it, so once Kirsty told her parents we rushed upstairs and relaxed in the jacuzzi.
