"Ashlee are you up yet?" A woman yells from the bottom of the stairs.
"Now I am," Ashlee groans and rolls out of bed.
"Not my fault you have to wake up at six o'clock in the morning to get ready for school," the woman yells back.
Ashlee makes her way over to her dresser grabbing a small container. She breaks open her little packet of contacts, delicately pushing her finger into the solution as the contact sticks to her finger.
"You know people like this thing called, I don't know.. SLEEP!" A boy screams running into Ashlee's room just as she places her finger to her eye.
"Andy! I was putting my contacts in! You could have really hurt me!" Ashlee screams at her slightly older brother.
"Oh great, another year of lies, I wonder how much this school will love them," Andy says with a huff and walks out of his sister's room.
Ashlee's POV
It's not lies, just how I want to look. God, why can't he get that through his thick skull. He just doesn't understand me
Ashlee quickly grabs her other contact placing it carefully in her other eye.
"Where is it? Where is it?" Ashlee mumbles to herself as she scuffles through her room.
~10 minutes later~
"Ah ha!" Ashlee yells and takes out her blonde wig and quickly turns to the mirror.
Ashlee's POV
Hmm, it looks to rough
Ashlee opens her drawer grabbing her brush. She begins to comb through her natural, rough brown hair. After fighting with her hair for a few minutes it finally untangles allowing Ashlee to put on a skull cap. After a few attempts leading to the wig sliping off her head she adjusts it to perfectly lay on her head.
"Ashlee! Breakfast!" The woman calls frustrated at the bottom of the stairs.
"Okay, be there soon!" Ashlee yells back.
Ashlee's POV
Now the moment I've been waiting forever for; how my new nose looks.
Ashlee begins to unravel the medical tape from her freshly done nose. Treating it like one slight bump would cause it to shatter into a million pieces.
"Oh my god," Ashlee mumbles under her breath.
"Ashlee! It's breakfast time. Everyone is waiting for you," the woman yells right outside of her door.
"Yeah, I know," Ashlee replies whipping open the door.
"Oh my god, Ashlee," the woman says grabbing Ashlee's shoulders and looking into her eyes.
"Does it look that bad?" Ashlee asks shrinking back at her perplexed face.
"No, it looks great," the woman replies with a huge smile.
"Thanks," Ashlee smiles with a huge braceless smile.
"Alright breakfast is ready. You don't want to be late on the first day of school, now do you?" The woman says with a quick smile and then she walks out of Ashlee's room.
"Okay, I'll be out there soon, don't let everyone wait for me," Ashlee replies turning back to her mirror.
Ashlee's POV
I hope no one hates me, I mean I'm likeable right? Probably not, Andy is probably right, they aren't going to like my fakeness
~5 minutes later~
"Hey now if it isn't little miss perfect," Andy teases under his breath.
"Shut up Andy. At least I look presentable," Ashlee snaps back.
"HEY, don't you two start, it's to early to fight," their mother says putting her body in between them.
"What's for breakfast?" Their mother asks trying to change the subject.
"Chocolate chip pancakes with bacon and sasuage," the woman replies.
"Thank you, sounds delicious Jade," Ashlee's mother replies with a quick smile.
Jade goes over to the stove and grabs a huge stack of pancakes balancing them on one plate as the warmth radiates off of them. After placing the plate of pancakes on the table she quickly grabs some plates and begins to place bacon and sasuage on them.
"Thank you," Andy mumbles as his plate is placed in front of him.
"You're welcome," Jade responds grabbing Ashlee's plate and doing the same.
"Thank you," Ashlee says a little louder than Andy did.
"Morning everyone," a man greets going over to Ashlee's mom and giving her a light kiss on the cheek.
"Morning Mr. Jones," Jade greets the man after he sits down at the table.
"I've told you a million times call me Sebastion," the man replies as Jade makes his plate.
'Okay, sorry," Jade mutters and hands Sebastion his plate of food.
"Nice looking breakfast you made," Sebastion says looking at his crispy bacon.
"Thanks," Jade says looking at her feet blushing.
~5 minutes later~
"Are you two ready for school?" Jade asks glancing at Andy and Ashlee.
"No I have to get dressed," Ashlee says shoving her last piece of bacon in her mouth darting up the stairs.
Ashlee's POV
Hmmm, what should I wear? Ah ha, this will work
Ashlee grabs a dress hanging on a neon blue/green hanger. Ashlee slips the dress carefully over her head letting it fall to her knees. She takes a look in the mirror one last time looking at herself from head to toe. She sees her straight, silky blonde hair, her bright blue eyes. Her floral dress hugging her body making her have an hour-glass shape.
"Alright, you will do great this year, no one knows you at this school," Ashlee mumbles to herself.
She takes her fingers and runs them through her hair for one last comb before she leaves. Ashlee walks down the hallway to the bathroom and quickly scans the cupboard for her toothbrush. After finding it wets the brush down with the sink and adds a strip of toothpaste. She scrubs her brace-less teeth very slowly, not use to the feeling of not having to brush over braces.
"Ashlee let's go, the limo is here!" Jade yells from the bottom of the stairs.
"Okay coming!" Ashlee yells grabbing her black flats.
****************************************************************************************************************
Andy's POV
Why does she get everything? Not once did I EVER get a limo to school. They magically adopt her over the summer and they have to give her everything at the snap of her fingers? I don't even have a car to drive but she can get a limo to school? Yeah, that makes sense....
Andy slips on a Bring Me The Horizon band t-shirt and pulls his jeans on. He quickly brushes through his brown, slightly quiffed hair and grabs his converse.
"Want to ride with me in the limo with me?" Ashlee asks bouncing up and down like a five year old.
"I think I'll walk," Andy mumbles.
"Aww, why? Don't you want to make a good reputation the first day?" Ashlee asks.
"I really could care less what people think about me," Andy replies and pulls out his ipod popping in his earbuds.
"His lose," Ashlee says shrugging her shoulders and walking outside to the limo.
