(A/N- This is Ashton. He's just a random guy I found off of Pintrest)
Ashton's P.O.V
"Where are we moving now?" I ask in an icy tone.
"California. I think this will be our last move." My father says proudly.
I can't help but feel relieved, happy, and upset at the same time.
"Why? Don't you have to do some traveling for work?" I ask suspiciously.
"Well, yes, but they will be for like only two weeks then he'll be able to come back." My mom answers for my dad.
No moving. How great will this be? I could finally have friends and not worry about leaving them. I might be able to even pick up a girlfriend! And California has the best beach and I could work on surf boarding! I'm originally from Florida so I picked up on some surfing tips when I was like eight. Then I moved to Nebraska and had to put my surf board up. Forever I thought. But now I can finally practice what could start to be my passion.
"Well why can't we move back to Illinois then?" My little sister, Emma asks.
I have two sisters. Tarah and Emma. Emma is only like 10 months younger than me so we're in the same grade. People think we're twins but we are definitely NOT.
Tarah is in college. She went back to Florida to study and become a professional photographer. Mom and Dad think it's a waste of time but I think that it's kind of cool. Traveling all over the world taking pictures of things that people will look at and appreciate.
"Because my work base is here, Em." My dad says annoyed.
" Just because your boyfriend lives there, doesn't mean we want to move back there." My mom says, texting her friend, Jamie.
"You guys would probably just break up in a week if we moved there anyways." I say, not even bothering to roll my eyes. She just glares at me.
"You're just jealous because I found somebody before you did!" She says with a nasty sneer.
"Not true! The only reason I don't have a girlfriend is because I choose not to until I know we are here for at least a year!You're just desperate because you knew we were only in Illinois for a month but you dated a guy anyways just to make a scene at the end of the month when we moved. I felt absolutely no emotion cause I didn't get close to anyone. I isolated myself when you were off crying about how you didn't want to leave him and you loved him." I say getting angry.
" I didn't make a scene." She says rolling her eyes.
" You cried for two days ya idiot!" I say shouting now.
"Whatever. You probably won't get a girlfriend while we're hear!" She says shouting also.
"Not if it's only a month, no" I shoot back in sort of a duh tone.
"Whatever you guys! Drop it!" mom says aggravated.
We just arrived in California and it's breathtaking! Palm trees line the streets and the beach. Beach houses twice the size as my old house and a pool in every backyard!
We finally pull up to our home. Well, house. A house is not a home if it's just temporary. So far, it is. I like the move and all but I just wish that it was the last move. But it gets better when I go up to my bedroom and see that it's bigger than my whole old house! A personal bathroom, walk-in closet, window seat, white walls, waiting to be painted, blue carpet, And on the door in neat letters it reads "Ash." My real name is Ashton but my parents and sisters call me Ash.
It's about 3:00 when I finally finish packing.
"Ash, time to go to bed, sweetie." my mom says softly.
"Kay, mom" I say tiredly.
I clean the boxes off of my bed and lay down. I can't go to sleep though. Too many thoughts are going through my head. Is this really the last move?! And If it is, will I fit in here? What if kids don't like me the way I am? What if I have to change to fit in here? I don't want to get bullied. I think.
"You won't get bullied" Emma says, coming into the room.
"I said that out loud" I ask embarrassed.
"Yep." She says laughing slightly. "But Ash, you don't need to change because people think your strange the way you are. It's like in Lincoln, when I told you to pretend we weren't siblings? That only made it worse when people found out about it. Imagine if they found out that you were pretending to be one of them? They'd think you're a copy cat. They won't bully you. Cause you're the most down-to-earth person I know and you are the best big brother ever, too." She says smiling slightly at the end.
"Thanks little sis." I say teasing her.
"By like ten months!" She says laughing.
"So why are you in here anyways?" I ask her after we control our laughter
"I heard you talking so I came to see who it was." She says softly
"Oh. I thought you had a nightmare and came in to see if I was okay." I say pretending to be hurt.
"That was when we were like, five! I haven't had a nightmare about loosing you for like five years!" She says laughing slightly.
Well, it's good to know that they can finish a conversation without arguing at the end." My dad says and my mom just stares at us shocked.
"I haven't heard a normal conversation since you guys were like 9! What changed?" She asks wide-eyed.
"Some good sisterly advice." I say smiling cheekily at her
"And some good memories from my brother here." She says laughing
"Well, it's like 5 o'clock in the morning and there's no use trying to go back to sleep for only two hours, why don't we all watch a movie?" My mom says clapping her hands together.
"Sure." I say shrugging my shoulders.
"Sounds fun." Emma says smiling at me.
Breanna's P.O.V
I can't believe what I just heard.
" What did you say?!" I ask getting angry.
"You heard me. I bet you're dad drove that car into the lake on purpose to put him and your brother out of their misery having to deal with you." She says laughing. Her copies just laugh with her and high-five her.
I drop the monster I was holding and go straight up to her. She just looks at me disgusted.
"Oops!" She says laughing as she dumps her beer on me.
"You bitch!" I say pushing her to the ground and punching her a few times before a teacher stops me.
"She was the one who made fun of my dad and brother, dumped beer on me AND she brought alcohol to school and you drag ME to the principle's office?! I ask him.
"Sarah is an Angel. Why would she do something so cruel?" He asks
"Because she's just sweet around you so she won't get in trouble when shit like this happens!" I say in a sort of 'duh you should know this' type of voice.
"I don't think that's true young lady. I'm afraid that this is your third fight on school property, am I correct?" He says looking under his glasses.
"Fifth." I say quietly, avoiding eye contact.
"Then I have no choice." He says sighing.
"Mr. Kapker please don't do this!" I beg
"You were always one of my favorite students, Bree. But I'm afraid that as of today, you are no longer a student at Miami High School and are no longer allowed to be on this school's property." He says closing his eyes.
I can't believe I just got expelled! Now, I have to go back to Bayside high! Ugh. They're is nothing to go back to there. I never had any friends. Probably won't make any either. The teachers who I had had for like 3 years always asked me what my name was. People stared at me like I was a new exhibit at the zoo, and the people who saw me, didn't talk to me. I guess I'll just join the student council again and show new people around.
"I'll let you stay and talk to your friends about it. Then you must go home." He says sadly.
"What friends?" I ask confused.
"You don't have any friends?" He asks equally cofused.
"Nope." I say.
" Well, I'll call your mother and have her pick you up." He says reaching for the phone.
"No need to. I'll do it." I say pulling my phone out of my boobs.
"Bree." He says sighing.
"You can't get me in any more trouble." I say shrugging my shoulder.
After a few rings it goes straight to voicemail. I quickly end the call while Mr. Kapker isn't looking and pretend to be on the phone with her.
"Mom?" I ask and wait a few seconds.
"Yeah. There's a bit of a problem. I kinda got expelled." I say. I can't believe that Mr. Kapker is believing this shit! "The teacher says you need to come get me." I wait a few seconds as if hearing her explanation why she can't.
"You're at a job interview? So do I have to walk?" I ask pretending to be disappointed. "Fine see you in an hour." I say rolling my eyes and "Hanging up" the phone.
"well," He asks.
"She's at a job interview waiting for them to meet with her and she said she won't be home for another hour but that I can walk." I say as believable as I can.
"Alright. Nice knowing you, Breanna." He says sticking a hand out for me to shake it.
" Yeah yeah." I say sighing. I high five him and walk out of the school.
I can't say I'm gonna miss this place. It was the worst high school ever! I'm kind of glad I got expelled.
When I get to my house, I go up into my room and text Amanda, my mom's friend.
///Texts:///
B- Hey Amanda! I accidentally got into my fifth fight at school and I'm expelled. I don't think it'd be great for her to hear that I got expelled from me, can you do it? I like really need you to do this for me.
A-Why and who did you get into a fight with?
B- Who-The person in all the other four fights (Sarah) Why- She made fun of me and said that my dad and brother probably commited suicide cause they didn't want to have to put up with me.
A-Oh I'm so sorry sweetie! That girls a little bitch and she knows it.
B-So you'll do it?
A-I don't know. What if she gets mad cause you didn't tell her and had to have someone else do it?
B-Please! I will do anything!
A- Like what?
B- I'll clean you're house every time we come over.
A- You haven't came over since you were a baby!
B-Please? Where do you even live now? Last I knew it was Chicago.
A-We were there but we moved to California yesterday.
B- Is it nice?
A- It's huge for a family of four! lol
B-Four? YOU HAVE KIDS?!
A-The same age as you, yeah. You didn't know that?
B- Nope.
A-Emma and Ashton and Tarah is in College. I have three kids.
B- Oh. How's Ryan?
A-Good. How's your mom and dad?
B-Good. I wish I had some brothers and sisters. :/
A- If we ever move to Florida, Ashton and Emma can be you're siblings. For now, enjoy it.
B-Okay lol. So does this mean you'll do it?
A-Since you put me in a good mood, sure. Have fun!
B- Thanks! I probably won't until I go to Bayside High.
A- I think we might move to Florida next year. Maybe they'll go there. ;)
B- Kay. Thanks. Bye
A- Bye!
I put my phone up and go into the kitchen. I get on the computer and look around for a little but and then see that Josh Hutcherson is doing a meet-and-greet for his new movie, Mockingjay part 2. He's a really good actor. It starts in twenty minutes and is ten minutes away so I grab my bag and run out the door after grabbing my cell phone. When I get there he's just entering the building and I can't believe he's here. I race up and sneek in to the building after Liam. Thank god he doesn't notice. I walk to bathroom and here arguing. I follow the noise.
" I can't believe that I ever liked you!" A girl shouts.
" What do you mean? You never liked me. You liked my money!" I hear a familiar voice say.
"You know what? We're done." The girl screams.
"Fine then. I'll be jsut fine." The man says.
"Why don't you just date Jenn while you're at it!" She says, crying. Who does she mean by Jenn? Jennifer Lawrence?
"Okay. Maybe I will. Bye Victoria!" He says with his voice cracking. Victoria? As in Josh Hutcherson's girlfriend Victoria Justice? Could it really be him?!
"Bye Dick face!" She says. Wow. Victoria is a bitch.
I hear the phone conversation end and him crying. I know it's not my place, but I feel really bad for him. I work up all the courage and go into the room. I pat him on the back and he looks up.
"Oh great. Another insane fan that followed us in here. Now you're gonn try to kill me now aren't you? Well go ahead. Nothing's stopping you." He says sniffling.
"What?! I'm a big fan of you but I wouldn't go that far. I had to go to the bathroom but they wouldn't let me in then when I was coming back, I could here you and Victoria Justice arguing so I came and hid behind the corner and listened until I heard you crying. I was gonna leave, but I felt bad leaving you there all alone with no one there so I came in here." I explain "But don't worry, Victoria's a bitch. You don't need her." You got some awesome friends like Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth." I reasure him.
"Well thanks. But Jennifer and Liam hate me.Jenn and I used to date and when we broke up right after the movie premier of Catchinf Fire, I saw her kissing Liam and I confronted it and she broke up with me and said that she hated me and then cried to Liamsaying that I hit her and he knocked me out."
"Oh my god! I am so sorry!" I sa hugging him. He hugs me back and I gotta say, it feels great hugging a single celebrity.
"The worst part is, I have to share a room with them cause the director insisted that we bond." He says crying some more.
I wipe his tears away. There's got to be a way that he can get out of this.
"What if you come stay with me at my house? We have two extra rooms that haven't been used in a while." I say happily
"What would your family say?" He asks
"Well, my dad and brother died in a car accident last year and my mom loves all of your movies so no problem." I say.
" I'm so sorry!" He says hugging me
"It's fine. Really. I just can't stand it when people make fun of me for it. This one girl, Sarah, said that my dad probably drove the car into the river on purpose to take him and my brother out of misery having to deal with it." I say crying.
He kisses my tears away and smiles sadly.
"How would you like to meet my friend Sam?" He says smiling.
"You mean, Sam the guy who plays Finnick, Sam?!" I ask wide-eyed.
"Yep. And the girl who plays prim is here." He says laughing slightly.
"OH MY GOD!!! I LOVE HER IN THESE MOVIES!" I say excitedly.
"Come on, then" He says laughing.
I take his hand and we walk hand in hand to the place where all the rest are. Instantly, Sam Claflin and Willow Shields come running over.
"Where the hell did you go?!" Willow asks out of breath. It sounds like she just ran a marathon.
"Who's this?" Sam asks pointing to me.
"This is..." Josh says trailing off.
"Breanna. Hi nice to meet you." I say smiling.
"Sam." He says winking.
"Willow"
"Josh"
"I know. I watch and own every single book and movie from the Hunger Games series" I say proudly.
"Oh. Big fan" Willow says smiling at me."
"Big help too. Vic broke up with me and she heard it and came running in to calm me down. She's my new best fran :)" Josh says winking at me.
"Well, Breanna. Why don't you come out with us for the meet and greet. I'm sure the directors won't mind." Willow says linking arms with me.
"Sure. Why not." I say smiling.
"Let's go" Josh says linking arms with me on the other side.
Sam grabs Willow's arm and replaces it with his.
"Much Better" He says smiling at me.
Willow jumps on my back and wraps her legs around my waist.
"Now it is. I don't have to walk" She says laughing at Sam.
"Laugh all you want but just to let you know, I'm very clumbsy and if I fall, I'm taking you down with me." I say laughing.
"Awe. You know you love me." She says laughing also.
"You're just lucky you weigh like 10 pounds cause I wouldn't have been able to carry you unless you weigh under 90." I say.
"Well, good thing I weigh 89, or you would be falling with me, Josh, and Sam all on top of you." She says smiling cheekily.
"Whatever. You did it on purpose." I say looking away from her and crossing my arms.
"You can't be mad at me. You love me too much." Willow says.
"We just met, Willow." I say rolling my eyes and uncrossing my arms.
"And we are already best friends! That's my point! We are like, peas and carrots. meant to be together." She says smiling at me.
"She loves me more, though." Sam says laughing
"No, she knew me first, she loves me more!" Josh jumps in.
"Bree, who do love more?" Willow asks.
"That's not fair! You guys are all the best ever." I say pouting.
"But I'm the bestest, right?" He asks in his voice he uses for Finnick.
"For that, yes." I say laughing.
Josh and Willow pout.
"Kidding guys!" I say laughing.
"Yay!" They both say in unision
"So, after the meet-and-greet do you want to come back to the hotel we're staying at?" Willow asks.
"Can't. Me and her need to go to her house and get permission from her mom for me to stay there for a couple nights." Josh says.
"My mom is a huge Hunger Games freak so she'll definetley allow it." I say reasuringly.
"Awe. I wanted you to stay the night at my hotel. We would room service all night, play video games, watch scary movies, eat popcorn, watch scary movies, prank call Jenn and Liam, watch scary movies, tell scar-"
"You said watch scary movies three times already!" Sam says interupting her.
"That does sound like fun..." I say sadly.
" But being with me is better." Josh says butting in.
"Hey! How about you stay the night at my house! In stead of room service, we could order pizza, I have netflix for scary movies, I have an Xbow one and an Xbow 360, a PS4, PS3, and PS2 for video games. We can buy popcorn and candy from the gas station a few blocks away from my house, and my mom wouldn't care if she knew who it was." I say excitedly.
"Yeah, okay sure!" She says happily and hugging me.
"What about me? I have to share a room with Woody. He farts in his sleep!!!" Sam says shivering.
"I guess you can sleep in my brothers old room, Josh, you can sleep in my dad's old room, and Willow, you and I can sleep in the bear cave." I say
"The what?" She asks.
"Before my brother died in a car accident with my dad, me and him were fighting over who gets the basement. he wanted it for a man cave and I wanted a hide out. I got an idea for a bear cave and we shared it. we decorated it half and half and on my side was a T.V, an Xbox one, a PS4 with bean bags in front of it, and a smothie bar with cups and a bar. On his side, there was a chalkboard, computer, T.V. with a Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, and a gamer's chair. He also beat me to the mini fridge." I say smiling at the memories of me and my brother.
" I am so sorry." Sam says hugging me.
"Me too." Willow says.
Josh shrugs and gets into the group hug with me in the middle.
"Can't. Breath." I say dramatically
They laugh and pull apart. I pretend to gasp for breath and they roll there eyes at me.
"What? You guys could have killed me." I say pretending to be hurt.
"Okay, seriously, I love you, but you are a terrible actress" Willow says laughing.
"Ladies and Gentleman, let's give a big round of applause for the Hunger Games Mockingjay part 2 cast and crew." A lady says and everyone walks on stage.
"Come on." Willow says linking arms with me again and dragging me to the meet-and-greet room.
"Willow" I complain
"It's fine! They'll love you!" She says reasuringly.
I instintly spot Sarah and her coppies glaring at me. Great. I think.
"Welcome! And who's this?" The lady asks pionting to me.
"This is Josh, Sam, and my best friend." Willow says hugging me from the side.
"What's your name, sweetie?" The lady asks.
"Bree." I say shyly
"Well Bree, I'm Tasha, nice to meet you." Tasha says.
After the meet-and-greet, me, Josh, Sam, and Willow all go back to the other room. Sarah comes up and starts glaring at me.
"How the hell did you get back here?" Willow asks standing in front of me protectively.
"How the hell did you see anything good in that" She says looking at her dumbfounded while she points to me.
"Answer my question." She says angrily.
"Please. You're not some princess that owns what I do. You're just a one hit wonder who will never be popular after this movie comes out." Sarah shoots back.
Willow runs away and cries. I glare at Sarah who just laughs.
"Look Bitch, you can mess with me all you want. But when you mess with my friends and family, you better watch your back." I say angrily
"It's Sarah and I don't care. You can't do anything because you're expelled." She says laughing at me.
"How the hell did you find out" I ask her.
"Eavesdropping is really helpful." She says smirking. I roll my eyes and walk away.
I find Josh and Sam looking confused in front of the girls bathroom.
"Lost, boys?" I ask them.
"Physically, no. Mentally, yes." Sam says.
"Why is Willow crying in the bathroom?" Josh asks confused.
I sigh " The girl that made fun of my brother and father dying bullied Willow after she defended me and then I talked to her and it didn't help." I say sadly.
"SECURITY!!!" Sam asks in a sing-song voice. I laugh
"Yeah, what you need, sir?" A big, tall man says looking down at Sam.
" Would you please escort that girl and her friends out of here and onto the streets?" Sam asks kindly.
"No problem." He says.
"Thank you." He says smiling.
The next thing you know, Sarah and her copies are being carried away to the exit by three big security gaurds and the one we spoke to five seconds ago.
"I'm gonna go talk to her. You guys stay put and make sure nobody comes in here." I say sternly to both of them. Basically saying, 'you guys won't stay the night if you screw this up'.
They nod. I walk into the bathroom and see her sitting on one of the sinks and crying.
"Willow." I say softly. I come over and sit with her and rub her back soothingly. "It's okay, that girl made fun of my dad and brither dying andI got into a fist fight with her. Well, me fists, her screams. I say and she laughs through her tears. "I'll go get the boys and they can cheer you up. We'll have a security guard block the door so nobody can get in."
"Okay." She says wiping her tears. But more fall.
I walk out of the bathroom and find the security guard.
"Can you block the door and make sure nobody enters the girls bathroom?" I ask nicely.
"Sure." He says. He comes over to the bathroom and I drag Sam and Josh away from the food and into the girl's bathroom.
Sam runs over to her and wipes her tears. "It's okay. He says softly.
"Let's go over to the hotel room for awhile." Josh says.
We go in and just talk. Today has been the best day of my life!
Ashton's P.O.V
"What do you guys want to watch?" my mom asks us.
Me and Em look at each other and smile.
"Finding Nemo!!!" We both shout and laugh. That used to be our favorite show and it still is. That's like the one thing we have in common. Finding Nemo. When we were little, we kept sayin 'eneminemini' like in the movie and laugh. We used to be joined at the hip. We should do that again.
After the movie, me and Em get ready for school.
"Josh Hutcherson, Sam Claflin, and Willow Shields all just became friends with a girl in Florida. She's lucky." Emma says sadly.
"If they met you, they would be great friends with you, too" I say trying to cheer her up.
"I guess. But they didn't." She says
"Come on. Let's go." I say.
"I'm gonna walk. You go ahead on the bus without me."
"Okay." I say and run to the bus stop. The bus has nobody in it except a few girls. That's because our neighborhood is the second stop for the bus apparently. I go to the back and just sit down. Obviously all those girls have bad taste because this is the best spot in the bus. One of the girls look back at me and gasps. She runs over to me and sits down next to me.
"What?" I ask curiously.
"You must be new. Sitting in the back is Suicidal. Xavior will KILL you!" She says.
"I can take care of myself. I don't think I've ever heard of a tough guy named Xavior. Sounds like a wimpy nerd who plays minecraft all day and has no life except for books, school, and energy drinks." I say laughing.
"Have it your way. If you want to get killed so be it." She says shrugging her shoulders. "Just don''t come crying to me if you end up in the Hospital like Jerry Fry."
"Who's Jerry Fry?" I ask raising an eyebrow.
"Excactly." She says. I just laugh. All of a sudden the bus stops and the girl looks frightened. I look at the door curiously and see a guy about 6 foot and really buff. I gulp. The girl looks at my bag before grabbing it and running to the front with it I chase after her.
"Hey! Give it back! That's got the iPhone 5s in there! I JUST got that!" She runs all the way up to the front and sits down. I sit next to her.
"You just costed me the best seat and possibly a new iPhone" I say upset
"Awe. Are you pouting?" She asks in a baby voice.
"No." I say pouting and crossing my arms, looking away from her.
"Well suck it up. I just saved your life. You would have been crushed!" She says.
"So you saved me and I don't need it."
"Well, it was pretty obvious that you think you're a tough man that an take on the world." She says laughing.
"That obvious, huh?" I ask rubbing the back of my neck.
"Yep." She says, popping the "p"
I just smile and look at her. She's so pretty. "What's your name?" I ask her smiling.
"Aria" She says smiling back.
"Well nice to meet you, Aria. I'm Ashton. My friends call me Ash, though." I say matter-of-factly.
"Can I call you Ash?" She asks.
"I don't know. That seat WAS very important to me. I don't think I could ever forgive you." I say teasing her
"Please?" She asks
"Okay. But only since your pretty." I say smiling. She blushes slightly. I just smile.
"Alright, Ash." She says smirking
The bus pulls up to the school. I don't know why, but I feel nervous. I'm pretty sure Aria knows.
"Are you nervous?" She asks. I don't want to tell her the truth. And I want to hang out with her. So I make up a lie that suits both things I want.
"I just have no idea where to go. Do you know someone who can show me?" I ask looking around confused.
"Well, since you don't have anyone to help you look around, I guess I will." She says smiling
"Well thanks." I say
"We couldn't have a student getting lost now could we?" She asks
"Definetely not. That would be unfair." I say
"Completely." Aria is the prettiest girl I've ever seen. Brown eyes, blonde hair, and the best style a girl could have. She's perfect.
"Are you coming, or would you like to drool over me some more?" She asks laughing.
"Uh, sorry." I say blushing bright red. She just laughs. This is gonna be a fun day.
