"Wake up Lacey we're gonna be late!" My older brother Josh yelled from his room, which was right next to mine.

I groaned and covered my head with my pillow. Today was my first day back to school...but in LA California.

I moved down to California from New York because of my parents divorce. I do miss my dad, but I'm glad he's out of my life.

I finally got out of bed and quickly dressed into a pair of black leggings, a pastel pink pullover from Pink (by Victoria's Secret), and my pair of white and black Adidas Superstars.

I rushed into the bathroom before Josh could, shutting and locking the door behind me.

"Hey! C'mon you take three hours in there! Hurry up!" Josh started banging and the door with his fist after he tried opening it and realizing it was locked.

"Use mom's bathroom!" I yelled in return.

Finally, the banging stopped.

I brushed through my long, knotted dark brown hair that extended about 7 inches past my shoulders, brushed my teeth, and washed my face. I curled my unusually straight hair and put on a bit of mascara just cause it was the first day of my junior year of high school in another state, so I wanted to look decent.

I unlocked the door and opened it to find Josh sitting on the ground, waiting.

"Finally oh my god you take forever!" He exasperated, standing up and brushing himself off a little.

I scoffed at him and said "I want to look at least decent."

"I don't know why, though. You already look decent enough and its not like I'm gonna let you bring any guys home."

I rolled my eyes, then retrieved my backpack and my new iPhone 7 I got as a present from mom a few days ago. I was addicted to it.

I stood in the middle of my room and texted my friend Serena, who still lived in New York. She texted back immediately.

Lacey - Dude I'm so nervouss!!!

Serena - I know BUT IM SO READY TO KICK HIGH SCHOOL IN THE ASS AGAIN WOOOOO but its not going to be the same ass kicking without you girl!

Lacey - I know I miss you guys.. Tell Andrew I said hi by the way...

Serena - You did not just type that. Andrew cheated on you girl get over him he's a douche! Maybe there will be somebody new at your new school 😏😏

"Lacey! Josh! Breakfast! You need to eat!" I heard my mom yell from the kitchen.

"Coming Mom!" We both said in unison.

Lacey - I gtg, talk later!

And with that, I raced downstairs and found my mom making eggs.

"Mom I love you but I gotta go, JOSH CAN YOU GIVE ME A RIDE? I STILL NEED TO GET GAS FOR MY CAR!" I yelled as I swung my backpack onto my shoulders.

"WHATEVER, GO GET IN THE CAR." He yelled in response.

"Love you mom, bye." I said as I dashed outside and into my brothers truck.

Ugh I miss my red 2016 Chevy Camaro SS, or as I call her, Little Red. I looked down at Little Red sitting next to my brothers ugly ass Chevy Silverado.

Yes, I was attached to my car. Get over it.

Josh walked out of the door and handed me his backpack.

"Hold this." Was all he said. He started the truck and backed out of the driveway.

It was a semi short 10 minute drive to Westwood High School, and Josh finally found a good parking spot. He parked and I handed him his backpack.
