-------------THE NEXT WEEK--------------------
It was the day of the move and I was actually kind of excited. Mostly because I found out that at the beginning of the school year in September, I'm going to be going to the same school as Hayes Grier. THE FREAKIN' HAYES GRIER!! I'm not normally one to fangirl, but this is just something I can't NOT fangirl over. It's not like anyone else sees me fangirl but Zoe. I do it in the safety of her bedroom or mine, away from parents and our younger sisters. I really do hope that Hayes and I can become friends. I doubt that someone famous and popular like him would be friends with a shy, nerd/band geek like me. Don't forget the fact that I will also be the new kid. And Everyone knows that it isn't cool to socialize with the new kids.
"Jess it's time to leave!" my mom shouts from downstairs.
I was just taking a last look at the house I've lived in for the past 9 1/2 years. Man were there some good memories in here. It's only the second time we've moved and the first time wasn't as big as this one, plus I was 5 so I don't really remember it. I started school here and now I have to start all over. I probably won't make any new friends, considering I'm very shy and I'm socially awkward with new people. Heck, it's hard for me to answer a question in school because of my anxiety. Luckily I haven't had any panic attacks yet, but I have a feeling once we get to North Carolina and I start school, it'll probably happen.
"COMING MOM!" I yell as I run down the stairs trying not to cry as this is the last time i will ever see this house.
"You ready?" my dad asked my mom, my younger sister, and I.
"Yep" the three of us said at the same time.
We all hop into the van and we start the 24 hour drive to North Carolina. The moving truck with all of our stuff in it left about an hour ago so the movers will arrive at the new house before we do. I'm kind of upset to be leaving Wisconsin. I mean, I've lived here my whole life so far and it sucks to leave all of our family that lives here and my friends like Zoe, Nick, and the rest of the group. Zoe and I will keep in touch though. I can't say the same for everyone else in the group because once I told them they all stopped talking to me. Oh well. I still have Zoe and that shows who my true friends are! Since we're on such a long drive I might as well tell you about my younger sister since I haven't yet. Well..... her name is Alyssa, shes 20 months younger than me, making her 12 aince I'm 14. She's really annoying and everyone thinks she's older than me because, sadly, she's taller than me and stuff. I don't really like the fact that everyone thinks that, but all the adults keep saying that I'll like it when we're older cuz I'll look younger than I really am. Anyways...... I don't really like my sister, but we get along sometimes. She just isn't really into much of the same stuff I'm into. Like for instance, she isn't really into socail media like me. I'm HUGE with it. I swear like any free second I have I'm either on instagram, twitter, vine, tumblr, or pinterest. On the other hand the only thing Alyssa has is instagram and she doesn't really use it properly. Anyways...... back to the drive.
"Are we almost there yeeeeettttttt?!?!" Alyssa whines from the seat next to me.
I punch her lightly on the shoulder and tell her to shut up and just go on her phone or iPad or something. But of course, being the little baby she is she starts "crying" because I hurt her.
"JESSICA! Be nicer to Alyssa! You need to stop hurting her or you're grounded!' my mom yells at me from the passengers seat.
"I BARELY TOUCHED HER!"
"I don't care young lady. Don't talk back to me. Just leave Alyssa alone." mom says.
"Then tell her to leave ME alone. I'm a teenager and I don't like to be bothered!"
Ughhhh my family is sometimes the WORST family in the world. I stare out the window and I see a sign that says:
"Welcome to North Carolina!"
"Yassssss! We're here!" I practically scream.
We drive for about another half an hour and we finally reach the new house. Like I had mentioned before, the movers were already here and all of our stuff was already in the house. Let me tell you something. This house was wayyyyy bigger than the one we had previously lived in. There were 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and there was a swimming pool in the backyard, even though we were a few blocks away from the beach. I can tell I'm going to love this house even though I haven't even been inside yet.
------------------------------------HOURS LATER-------------------------------------------------------------
So apparently the movers knew which rooms to put everything in and I absolutely LOVE my room. I FINALLY have my own bathroom so now I don't have to share it with Alyssa, which will really help how much time it will take me to get ready for school and stuff. All I have to do is put my clothes and stuff into my closet and my dresser and I'll be completely unpacked!After I finished that I decided to shower since I was in the car for a whole day on the way here! I threw on a pair of athletic shorts and a random T-shirt just to lounge around the house in. I went downstairs to find some food to snack on and I grabbed a cookie from the cupboard. Just as I took a bite of it, the doorbell rang. Great...... The first time someone comes here and I was left home alone while everyone else went shopping for I don't know what! I walk over to the door and open it. I was amazed at who was on my doorstep.......
It was Hayes Grier..................
