[Roxie]

I walk downstairs after I wake up and get ready, stretching as I go.
My younger sister, Luna, tosses me an envelope. "Says somethin about some college." She shrugs, pushing past me to go to the couch.
My eyes widen as I open the letter and read through it. "Oh my god!" I scream.
My Uncle Matty comes running into the room. "Is everything okay?"
I nod quickly and show him the letter. "It's perfect! I got a scholarship to the Royal Art College! A full ride! It's my dream school!" I say happily.
Matty smiles wide. "Great job, I knew you could do it, Rox." He walks over and pulls me into a hug.
Matty, my uncle, is my and Luna's caretaker. He's been living with us ever since the crash.
He's my number one supporter and one of my closest friends.
"What's all the squealing for?" Luna asks.
I roll my eyes. "College stuff. You wouldn't get it."
I laugh when she groans, then check my watch.
"Luna, c'mon, we're gonna be late to school." I say, grabbing my bag and walking out to the car.
Luna comes out after me, climbing in the passenger's seat.
We wave our uncle goodbye and head off.

I walk around happily once we get to school. Everything is going according to schedule. It's all perfect.
That is, until, two new boys push past me.
"Hey, watch it!" I scold them.
"Sorry, darling." One says and grins at me. I get slightly flustered immediately - his smile was perfect, he had an American accent, his skin was tan and his hair was dyed black. He had these really pretty blue-green eyes and perfect teeth. The mystery boy winks at me and turns, keeping on walking. The other one, assumably his twin, looked almost identical. The biggest difference was that his hair was blonde.
"What was that about?" My best friend, Harley, says, walking up to me.
I just shrug, slightly dazed. I had no words.
"Looks like some bloody pretty boy's gonna come in and mess up our final year."
I sigh and shake my head. "No... We will manage."

"Roxie Andromeda."
"Here" I say lazily as the teacher goes on with the role call list, laying my head on my desk and closing my eyes.
"Cliff Redman." She says after a few names.
I pick my head up as the unfamiliar, American voice says, "Here."
I look over, spotting the blonde boy from earlier. His brother was the one... He wasn't gonna mess everything up for me.

I shoulder into someone by accident. I turn seeing a pretty brunette as she scolds me for hitting her. I'm not really listening, though. "Sorry, darling." I say to her. I smirk as she starts to look flustered.
A gorgeous blonde walks up behind her right before I around. I nudge Cliff, my brother, and say "I think I'm gonna really enjoy my time here."
He smirks and nods.
"We're the only Americans here."
I roll my eyes. "Great job, Einstein. We're in Britain. Not America."
"Oh shut up!" He snaps.
I laugh slightly, looking around at all of the new people, analysing 
Still, no matter who I look to, I keep thinking of the brunette. Her full pink lips, her hazel eyes, her tanned skin and beautiful structure. I run a hand through my hair, thinking of the way I can get her to like me. It's not always easy with the shy girl.
