As i was listening to the music in the car I took in the surroundings of the town i will now be living in, Sacramento California , sure i was excited to move here and to make new friends but i still miss my old home and my old friends that i will probably never see again. I let out a small sigh as we pulled into a gorgeous neighborhood. All the houses were huge with freshly cut grass and newly planted flowers. we stopped in front of a white house that looked to be two stories and it had white pillars in the front. It was a beautiful home but it didn't feel like MY home. I grabbed my mini Chanel bag that i got last Christmas and headed inside. My room had everything in it but wasn't unpacked yet , first i started off with my clothes and put them in my walk in closet. i put all my dark clothes in one section and the lighter clothes in the other section. i put my shoes , handbags , backpacks , jewelry and other accessories in the table type dresser that was in the middle of the closet ( for visual reference look up Kris Jenner's closet or Jaclyn hills closet) i walked out of the closet and started putting up my framed Chanel photos and my old pageant tiaras on a glass floating shelf. i put all my makeup and hair products in my vanity and a vase of marble like stones that i put my brushes in as like a cute holder. i walk over to my bookshelf that was built in the wall and started putting my books in alphabet order. I had a lot of books so it took a while and by the time i was done putting everything away i was called down for dinner. I walked out of my room and past my sisters room and stepped on a bratz doll. " UGH really Constance! out of all places you put your doll right in front of the door" i say rubbing the bottom of my foot feeling the divot in my skin where the dolls hand poked when i stepped on it. " sorry bell " she says picking up the toy and giving me a quick hug before running downstairs to go eat. I could never stay mad at my little sister, she was so cute and sweet. I walked downstairs and sat next to Connie ( Constance's nickname) my mom put green beans , corn , and chicken on both of all four of our plates and passed them out. Connie had milk , i had water and my parents both had a glass of red wine. Seeing both my parents here is weird because my dads always on business trips and my mom is a surgeon so she spends most of her time at the hospital. I'm very thankful for everything we have and what they do for me and my sister but i just wish i could have my parents for a day just hanging out together as a family. " so arabella are you ready for school on Monday" my dad says with a smile on his face " yeah" i say with a smile on mine as well " oh before i forget tomorrow Jenna Walton is coming over to hangout with you " my mom says taking a sip from her wine " who?" i ask . i remember the last name Walton but i don't know a Jenna. " remember i was best friends with her mom in high school and you and Jenna grew up with each other until we moved to Chicago." my mom says . wait now i remember she used to be my best friend . i must have been gone a long time not to remember my old best friend " ohhh that Jenna. well i'm excited to see her now that i remember everything." i say smiling. i am excited to meet her but what if she changed and like doesn't remember or like me . " good, also she lives across the street so you guys can hangout anytime" my mom said with cheer in her voice. i smiled and continued eating some of my dinner while Connie just picks at it with her fork.


Dinner is now done and I took all my makeup off and got in my silk matching pajama set. I got in bed and drifted off to sleep quickly because all i have been doing was moving things and puting things away and a girl is tired!!





I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and the sun glaring in my eyes. i let out a deep groan and stretched and fell out of my bed in the process. i got off the floor and went in my bathroom. i looked in the mirror and was scared by my reflection. my hair was everywhere and i had dry drool in the corner of my mouth. wow Arabella . cute. i washed my face and brushed my hair leaving it wavy and brushed my teeth. i walked back into my room and sat down at my vanity. i put on a little bit of makeup on to cover all of my blemishes but making me look natural at the same time. i got up and walked to my closet putting on a blue and white plaid skirt with a white tank-crop top. i walked back to my vanity and grabbed two white hair clips and put one on either side of my head. " ARABELLA JENNA IS HERE" my mom yelled from down stairs. i am starting to get nervous again but i'm not going to let it show. i quickly put deodorant and perfume on and walked out my room and down the stairs. i saw Jenna and she immediately ran to me and engulfed me in a hug. i instantly hugged her back and we started squealing like little girls. " omg i missed you so much bell" she said looking me in the eyes smiling. " i missed you so much too Jen" i said. even though i might not have remembered her right away last night i still remembered our friendship afterwards and it made me happy . we went out in the back yard and sat on the edge of the pool and out our feet in. we spent time catching up and filling each other in on boy drama. apparently she has a boyfriend names Jonah and he goes to our school. She filled me in on the school and its rules and also the boys. " so sister Sarah might yell at you for your skirt but she doesn't actually do anything so ill help mend your skirt so it is shorter and not like a grandma." she said laughing ." oh thank god because i will throw a fit if i have to wear that ugly thing in front of ANYBODY" i said laughing with her. " also my mom contacted the school and made sure we had all of our classes together." she said looking proud " wait really how" i said widening my eyes " well my mom told her that you are new and how you would feel more comfortable with a friend in your classes and to show you the ropes " she said " omg thank youuuuu" i said hugging the side of her . she giggled and said " no problem . Oh also i would like you to meet all of my friends so can we pick you up and drive you to school" she said with a wide smile " you can every-other day but since Monday is my first day my mom wants to drive me before work but after the first day you guys can take me" i said kicking the water a little with my feet. " okay . but when you get dropped off at the main gates walk through them and meet me and my friends at the fountain and we can wait for the guys to come from their side of the school" she said . i nodded and we talked about what to expect and other things. we went back inside and she hemmed my skirt for me and it looked so much better than what it used to . she ate dinner with us and filled my mom in on everything that they've been doing for the past 10 years when we were gone. it was about 10 pm when Jenna had to leave and we hugged goodbye and she headed back home. i closed the front door and my mom was waiting for me by the stairs. " so are you happy that you have a friend to look for at school " my mom said in a soft voice because Connie was sleeping. " yeah. she wants me to meet her group of friends in the morning and drive me to school after tomorrow because she knows you want to take me ." i said looking at her and trying not to talk loudly. " that's nice of her. oh also your dad will be going on a business trip soon" she said looking at me with sorrow in her eyes. she knew how much it bugged me when he was gone because she was barely here either . " okay" i said putting on a fake smile and walked upstairs to my room. i showered then changed into pajamas and took off my makeup with my skin care products. i put all my dirty clothes in the hamper and got into bed . i put on the movie clueless and drifted off to bed with a nervous feeling in my stomach for the first day of school tomorrow.
