"Morning Lex." Aunt Rachel says as she comes into my room. I roll over and look up at her.
"Another sleepless night?" She asks. I nod.
"Well cheer up! It's your birthday!" Aunt Rachel says cheerfully. I move a little up in my bed.
"I'll try, but I have a lot to do. I got to get HR in a couple of hours." I said to her putting on my slippers.
"I know hon. I just wish you would enjoy your youth for once. You haven't since..." I point a finger at her to make stop.
"I know okay. It just takes my mind off him."
"Sorry. I'll see you down stairs." She left my room, shutting the door quietly behind her. I look at the mirror. I'm a wreck. But I have been since that summer. The summer I lost the boy of my dreams. Nicholas Jerry Jonas. I'm Alexis Meyers. The girl who did nothing.

Should I begin writing Underdog again?
 
If I do continue then I am going to advance the characters a few years.

“Whisper hello
I miss you quite terribly.”
 
I sing along to my favorite song by HelloGoodbye.
 
“Gracie,” I hear my mom yell “Get down here and get some breakfast!”
 
“I’ll be down in one second!” I yell back. I turn back to the mirror. Today is my first day at Dearling High school. I am a little more nervous than usual. Usually, I know I’m only going to be there for a few months, so I learn not to get used to it. But now I am staying till graduation. For me, that’s a
very long time.
 
I adjust my skirt. I’m wearing a grey skirt, soft pink tee with a white polo over it, and long strands of fake pearls. After fixing my wavy black hair, I leave my room to go to the kitchen.
 
The kitchen is something out of the fifties with new appliances. It is the ugliest thing, but I got to learn to deal.
 
“Hey baby doll. My oh my. You sure are dressed up.” My mother sighs.
 
“Well, since we are going to be here awhile, I thought I should make a good first impression.” I reply. I give a quick little twirl to show off my outfit.
 
“I made you toaster waffles and microwaveable bacon. Enjoy.” She says pointing to my breakfast on the green counter. I pick it up and walk over to the table. I take a bite of bacon.
 
“Thanks mom.” I sigh.
 
“No problem sweetie.” She says in a cheerful voice, trying to make herself feel better. Mom looked down at her watch.
 
“Oh dear! Got to run Gracie. I got to get to work. Love you!” Mom says in her high-pitched voice. She quickly gathers her things and runs out the door.
 
“Good luck.” I whisper to myself as she slams the door.
 
After I finish breakfast, I wash and put away my dishes. I then proceed to get my backpack and head for the bus.
 
The walk to the bus stop isn’t very far. I just go to the end of the block and wait. Five minutes later, another kid comes to the stop. He looks to be about my age. His height is about 5’10” and has dark brown hair. He looks over at me and smiles.
 
“You must be the new girl. I’m Troy Marks.” Troy holds out his hand to shake while using the other one to push back his hair.
 
“I’m Gracie. Gracie Montez.” I reply back. We take each others’ hands and quickly shake.
 
“So where are you from?” Troy asks.
 
“Originally?” I ask. He looks back at me weird.
 
“Um, yeah, I guess.” He says. I sigh.
 
“I’m originally from Chicago, but because of my mom’s job, we move a lot. So my hometowns are L.A., N.Y.C., Forks, Denver, Miami, and a bunch of other places you never even heard of.”
 
“Wow. Forks? Is that even a real place?” I laugh.
 
“Yeah. It’s in Washington.” Troy blushes a bit.
 
“Don’t worry. I get asked that all the time.”
As his face gets back to its normal shade, the bus pulls up. It’s a rickety old thing, but it runs.
 
“Gracie, you can sit with me.” Troy waves me over to sit with him. I slowly make my way over to our seat trying to figure out the other people on the bus. Behind Troy is a tall blonde with super long curls. Obliviously the popular girl.
 
“Troy, who is your new friend here?”
 
“This is Gracie. Gracie, this is Kate Anderson.”She stuck out her hand and we shook quickly.
 
“Nice to meet ya. You have been the buzz around here since Friday.” Kate said smiling. I guess this is supposed to make me happy. It doesn’t though. I’m kind of used to it now.
 
“If you ever need anything, you come find me, okay?” Kate says, pointing at herself. I smile and nod.
 
The rest of the day is uneventful. Kate or Troy are in my classes unless there AP classes. I felt alone. Welcome to Dearling High.

I look out the window of my new bedroom. There is a slow drizzle of rain going on outside and I want to be in it. For some reason, I adore rain. Mother says it is because the night I was born, it was raining outside. I say because it simple and yet pretty. Weird, I know, but I am a weird girl.
 
Oh, forgot to introduce myself. I’m Gracie Dorinda Montez. I live with my mom Deanna in a new home in Dearling, New Mexico. My mom and I were always on the move. My mother promised me that this is the last time we will be moving until my graduation day. Trust me, you do not know how happy that makes me feel.
 
“Gracie dear, how are doing in there?” She called from the kitchen.
 
“Doing good mom!” I yell back to her. I slowly move away from the window and continue to unpack the boxes I have. I look up to see my mom.
 
“I’m going to order pizza for supper, okay?” Mom asks. I nod and turn back to work.
 
“You know Gracie; we can go shopping for school. Does that sound good?” I look back up.
 
“Mom, we could barely afford the house. And plus I have enough clothes.”I say while smiling.
 
“I know dear. I just want you to be happy.” She sighs.
 
“Want to know what would really make me happy?” I say.
 
“What?” Mom asks.
 
“A sausage pizza with fries.” It takes her a second, but she finally started laughing.
 
“Okay, I’ll go order it then.” Mom laughs.
