I'm only me when I'm with you

Chaptertwo: Back at Pearl Daly High

I woke up the next morning at 7:45 AM and dragged myself out of my beloved bed. I began unpacking my clothes and putting them in my closet. Then I decided to jump into the shower. I let the warm water splash against my tanned skin. I picked up my shampoo and started washing my blond curls. I got out wrapping a towel around myself and another around my hair and began to brush my teeth (typical morning routine) I dried my hair and through on my blue jeans and my plaid shirt and brown boots. I let my hair fall naturally curly and put on a tad of makeup. I met Emma in the sitting
room that separated are two rooms in our dorm.

"Lisa!" she screamed as she ran to hug me.

"Hey Emma!" I shrieked

and I hugged her. I was so happy to see her again after being on tour.

"It feels like it's been forever" she said smiling

"I know I haven't seen you for so long" I said squeezing her arm as we left to get breakfast.

"You look so beautiful, I'm jealous" she said pouting. I knew she was lying, but you gotta love her

"Haha thanks you look absolutely stunning too" I said.

We caught up as we made are way down to the cafe for breakfast. I laughed at some of the stories she told me about what happened when I was away. There were stories about pranks
played on teachers and the mean girls embarrassing themselves. I laughed so
hard I thought I was gonna pass out. My laughter suddenly stopped when I seen Courtney and her enormous group of friends looking at me and pointing. Then Courtney began to glare at me as if she was disgusted to be in the same room as me. I looked down to the floor in discomfort.

"Lisa, are you okay" Emma asked me

"Yeah I'm fine thanks" I smiled shaking it off

"Just the long trip and all... uggh jet lag" I lied

"Okay... you're sure" she asked.

"Yeah I'm fine" I reassured her.

"So did I miss anything else while I was gone" I said changing the subject.

"Um not really just boring class lessons" Emma said rolling her huge brown eyes.

"So tell me about your tour" she said.

"Oh it was amazing" I replied "Especially to get away from boring classes"

"You're so lucky" she said

"I wish I could go on tour" she sighed.

"Hey maybe next time I'll take you too" I smiled

"Really" she said as her eyes lit up hoping to get out of school for six months.

"Sure, It gets kinda lonely sometimes cuz I'm mostly just with adults" I replied

"You are the best friend ever!" she shrieked.

"Slow down Emma, I need a new album out before I start touring again; it could be a year away"

"Still I actually love you!!!" she screamed. I laughed.

Emma Roberts is an actress;

she doesn't usually get out of school that much for her work though because she works after school and always shoots her movies close by. I only get out of school when I'm touring. I work in the studio after school writing and recording and I do my interviews at night. I like to squeeze in my dancing and gymnastics somewhere but I try to get one day off a week to prevent me from pulling my hair out!!!!!!! My main genre of music is American country but once in a while I like to write a good Pop or dance song, but country was my main priority. I grew up around country music. My Grandma loved it, my Grandpa loved it and apparently my Dad loved it too. My grandma always said that I got my musical 'gift' as she called it, off my dad as no one else in my family are musical. There was something about country music that made me feel safe, it was so down to earth, when I listened to it, it made me feel like no matter what, everything was gonna be okay as long as I turned my i pod.
