This is the story of Sarabeth and how her life changed starting from the day they moved from Brighton, England to Syracuse, New York.

They moved into a lavish gated neighborhood. The houses were very large, and had huge front lawns. Each house looked different. Her neighbors treated them with respect and like family. The first family to greet them was the Horan's; Bobby Horan, Maura Horan, and their son Niall Horan. They moved to New York 3 years ago from Mullingar, Ireland. Bobby was a very nice person but can get very strict and violent, if he was angered. Maura was the sweet loving mother that everyone wanted. They were both in their mid 40s. Niall was 17, and loved to eat all the time. He was 5'9", he has brown hair which he dyed blonde. He loves to play guitar, and he also loves to sing. He loves to goof off and be silly.

The Horan's and the Clarks soon became good friends. Sara and Niall became the kinds of friends that treat each other like brother and sister, they were inseparable. 3 months later it was time for Sarabeth to start her first day of high school. Luckily Niall went to the same school, so now she can calm down because she had her best friend with her. "Niall? I'm nervous" she said as they were waiting for the bus. "Why?" asked Niall. "Because it's my first day of high school, and I don't know what to expect", she said with a nervous look. Niall put his arm around her rubbing her shoulder "Don't worry it's gonna be okay, being nervous is part of the rollercoaster of life. You know what I always tell myself when I feel nervous?" "No?" she replied. "You gotta take chances and try new things; we gotta live and make it what we want. I'll be right here with you, I promise", he said. "I'll even show you around the school". "Thanks for being there for me. You are truly the best friend anyone can ever ask for, thanks", she said as she gave him an appreciative smile. "What are best friends for", he smiled back. "The school is huge; we have a student lounge and 6 classes. Lunch is between 3rd and 4th period, we all have one lunch", he told her more as they rode on the bus to Stuyvesant High School. 

It was towards the end of September, so it was a little chilly outside. The building was really large; it was in the city and was almost 2/3 of the block long. As they walk through the doors of Stuyvesant High School, she felt butterflies again, but sure enough Niall was right by her side just as she said. Turning to see him, she felt at ease. As they were walking to their lockers, some of Niall's friends came up to them, they were all juniors. "Hey Niall, what's up?" asked Andy. He was tall, skinny but muscular, blue eyes, and straight hair that he died blond. He was wearing a plain white v-neck T- shirt with some baggy shorts, and Whitw converses. "Yeah, how was your summer?" asked Rachel. She was a little shorter than Andy had straight black hair, dark brown eyes. She was wearing a navy blue Hollister shirt with skinny jeans and black some converses. "It was great. I met Sara over here 3 months ago. She just moved here from Arkansas." Niall replied enthusiastically. "Sara, this is Andy Samules, Josh Devine, Joey Cottle, Harry Styles, Lux Teasdale, Rachel Turner, and Demi Lovato" introduced Niall. "Guys, this is Sarabeth, she likes to be called Sara though". They smiled because Sara seemed like a nice girl. As the group got to know what Sara was like, the bell rang for first period. Sara had Pre-Calc first, "Here's Pre-Calc aka "The Beasts Lair". I'll meet you here after class to show you your next room", Niall said as they approached the class door. "Thanks, what would I do without you", she smiled as he walked to his class. 

As she walked into class, she had a gut feeling that these two years are going to be the best ever, because of all the new friends she made already. After about an hour and five minutes later it was time for second period, Sara had English III; Niall had the same class too. She walked in and sat down she saw Andy at the front seat of the classroom, so she decided to sit behind him and Niall sat behind her. She looked back and smiled, his smile was warm in return. The bell rang signaling that it was time for 3rd period. All three friends walked out of the classroom together, talking as they walk to their next class. Andy had physics, Niall had chemistry, and Sara had P.E. As they all went their separate ways, Niall showed her where the P.E. room was "So here's P.E., but I gotta go, the late bell is about to ring. See-ya." Niall couldn't stop thinking about her. He was worried that others would give snarky comments because she was a new student.
