Chapter 2-- Vinita 

*THE NEXT AFTERNOON THROUGH EVENING*

"Oh, Grace! Don't you just love this small town feeling?! It's just so peaceful!"

"Oh, believe me, Emilee it's wonderful!"

"We're going to be completely different people here. We will NOT be losers again. We will regain our high standards."

"Emilee, we're in a small town, just putting your hair down and curly we'll have high standards." Grace told me, with a smirk.

"I know that, and that's what we are doing Grace."

"Girls, go choose your rooms!" My mom shouts.

I giggle, and we race up the stairs to pick out our rooms. We have the best house, better then the one in California, and probably cheaper. I absouluty love it!

Grace and I started decorating immeaditly, and help each other out with it.

We painted my room, then painted her's. Went to the park while it dried, then came home to put the rooms the way we wanted them.

"Girls! Come down for supper! We're going out!" My mom yells from down stairs.

"Give us fifteen minutes, mom!" We yelled back.

Make-up, designer clothes, cell phones, and iPods. We are making a new record, for sure.

Ten minutes later Grace and I came down stairs to go to eat, and might I add we looked wonderful!

My mom, who was in complete shock, said "Oh my, you girls look great!"

As for my dad...... He looked at us and said, "Oh, please don't fall for a country boy, I'll have to get my shotgun for both of you.."

At that we all laughed.

*MONDAY MORNING -- 8 O'CLOCK*

"Woah, Grace. They have a SMALL school!"

"I know it! It's like... 4 times smaller then LA!"

That was correct, it really was. We went to the office to get our schedules, our 10th grade year is going to be life changing.

A boy came up to us "Hello, I'm Alex. I'm in the tenth grade and can help you get around if you need it."

"Why thank you, Alex. That's awful sweet. I'm Emilee, and this is Grace."

"Why, hello. I have a question. How do you make it here? It is so small, and home like. I love it!" Grace said, and I can tell by the look in her eyes she likes him. I don't blame her, he is good looking, just not my type.

"Well, that's easy. Why you are born and raised here you learn to live no other way, what's so ever." he said. "Where're y'all from anyway?"

"LA, California." I say smiling. "it is so much better here!"

"Wow, is it not hard to come here, from a huge city? I mean, we hang out at wal-mart for fun!" He laughed. "I'm just kidding."

"Well, I hung out at coffee shops for fun. Grace, didn't do much until I started hanging out with her." I say.

Then a girl comes up, "Hey! I'm Anabelle, Ana for short." She says to us.

"Hey! I'm Emilee and this is Grace."

"Where do y'all come from?" She asks, the people here have a cute southern accent.

"Los Angles, California."

"Whoa, how do y'all make it here. It's so small, I highly dislike this town!"

"She's from Tulsa, and doesn't like small towns, she's known a different way to live. Ignore her." Alex said with a smile and a wink at Grace.

I don't blame her for liking him. He has blonde hair, and brown eyes. I also don't blame him for falling for her. Grace is beautiful, she has long black hair, and the prettiest green eyes.

"Well, I'm gonna go to my class." Ana says, and smiles.

"I think I will too." I say.

"Well, I'll go with you, we have all classes together." Grace says.

"What is your guys' first class?" Alex asks us.

"Umm... English, you?" I say.

 "English. I'll go with you guys."

When Alex said that Grace smiled. I think I should let them hang out together. She won't let me though! Hm...

"Hey, Alex. Do you want to come to our house today after school? We can go to the park, or we can go up to Miami to skate, if you want?" I said, and Grace blushed. She's gonna kill me for this later, but who cares?
