Brooke's POV:

I looked out into the city I had known for a good portion of my life. The sun was just coming up, singling the start of a new day. Except this wasn't just any day. This was the day that my acting career would take off. At least that's what I'm hoping will happen.
I didn't pack up all my belongs because I wasn't permanently moving to California. I had just landed a role in a new Disney movie, Newsies. This was such a big deal for me because it was my very first role.
     I didn't realize how long I was watching the sunrise until my mother spoke up.
     "I heard that Cali's sunrises are pretty nice, but I don't think they can compete with New York's."
     "I'm just gonna have to wait until I get there to see if that's true or not," I answered back. She engulfed me in a big hug.
"I'm so proud of you amour. Sure, I'll miss you like crazy, but I couldnt have asked for a better daughter."
"Thanks maman," I said before pulling away from her hug.
"Now you promise to keep in touch and make sure you tell David I said hi, okay?"
"Yes mom. We went over this like 300 times already," I giggled.
"Alright baby, lets head to the airport shall we?"

Time skip to when she lands in Cali because I'm lazy. This is also still Brooke's POV by the way.

When I landed in California, it was around early evening. David and his mom were going to be picking me up from the airport. I was also going to be staying with them while filming.
You see, when I first moved to New York from Paris I knew broken english. No one wanted to be my friend because I talked funny, but that didn't bother David. At recess one day I was sitting by myself reading when he came up to me.
"Hi my name is David. What's yours?" he asked.
"Brooklyn, but you can call me Brooke."
"You know people say you talk funny?"
"That's because I was born in Paris," I explained.
"Where is that?"
"France. You should go sometime, it's really fun and pretty."
From that moment on, the two of us become inseparable. That was until he moved to California to film Big. It was hard to say goodbye, but we never stopped being friends.
When I came out of the gate I immediately saw David standing with his mom. We both ran to each other and engaged in the biggest hug.
"I missed you," I said into his chest.
"Miss you more Smalls." Smalls was the nickname he gave me in middle school because he hit his growth spurt and I stayed the same.
"Hi Mrs. Moscow!" I said hugging his mom.
"Oh Brooke it is so good to finally see you again!" she said. "How was the flight?"
"It was okay. I hate flying to begin with."
"Still scared of heights, huh?" David joked.
"No...maybe...okay a little!" We all laughed at this before heading out to the car. David helped with my luggage as we packed up the car. We headed right to his apartment.

Time jump again because I'm not good at running dialogue:)

When we got to David's apartment he helped me unpack.
"So how's New York without me?" He questioned.
"Not the same honestly. People will finally talk to me because my accent has somewhat worn off," I explained.
"Ah yes, that one French girl." Before people knew my name, that's what people knew me by.
"Don't act like you don't love it when I speak French Moscow," I teased.
Alright, I'll admit it. David and I playful flirt a lot. People always think we are dating, but we aren't. Although, deep down I kinda wish that was the case.
"Yeah and I bet the boys will love that too. On that note, we are all going to hang out at Dom's place tomorrow night. You are part of the cast after all so, if you're up for it, you can come."
I wasn't the biggest party person. Actually no scratch that; I hate parties. But I do need to meet who I'm working with here.
"Alright, looks like I'm tagging along."
"Good," he said as he turned to me and smiled. We finished unpacking my stuff and went to bed.

And that's it for Chapter 1!! I hope you liked it because I do. Don't worry, it will get more interesting next chapter. I forgot to add in the introduction that anything in French will also be in italics. Also, I don't know if Big was actually filmed in California or not, but for the case of the story, let's just say it was.
