Max's P.O.V.

"But MOM!" I yelled. This was so not how I planned my freshman year to look like. I am currently standing in my room surrounded by empty brown boxes marked Max's Stuff. My mom was standing in the doorway of my room looking at me straight in the eyes.

"Max! That's enough! I told you, this move is final! You and your sister will have so many new experiences at this school!" she said trying to cheer me up. "Now please Max, start packing your stuff. We leave in two days." she said as she headed towards the stairs that led downstairs.

I let out a sigh and groaned to myself as I started throwing clothes and my special belongings into one of the brown boxes. This was going to be interesting.

I might want to brief you on a couple of things about me. If you haven't noticed, my name is Maximum, Max for short. I live to dance and choreography is my passion. I am fifteen years old, currently, and my mom found out about my passion for dancing when I was fourteen. My sister's name is Ella. She is currently fourteen and has a passion for singing. I love the way she sings. She sounds beautiful. My mom found out about our special talents of dancing and singing last year and decided to enroll us in a performing arts school. There, I was to study the art of dance and for Ella, voice and music. I have a whole 2 weeks left of summer and I'm spending them in my new neighborhood in Phoenix, Arizona, where I will be living throughout my years of high school. My mom wanted me and Ella to go to school together so she enrolled us in a High/Middle school of Performing Arts. I will be going into 9th grade while Ella will be in 8th.

"We're here! We're here! We're here!" Ella screamed as I woke up from my nap. We were in the car driving to Arizona and the last thing I remember is the song Dance With Me by Drew Seeley blasting on my ipod. I guess I nodded off. I stared out my window and saw that my mom had pulled up to a three-story house that looked old fashioned but was beautiful. Me and Ella jumped out of the car and ran towards the front door. Locked! My mom was laughing at us running towards the door as she walked over to us with a key in her hand. She unlocked it and me and Ella ran inside to look around.

As soon as you walked in, there was a long hallway that contained three doors on each side. I looked at each individually. The first door on the right was a full bathroom, the second door on the right was a game room with different types of arcade games, and the third door was a big master bedroom with a bathroom attached to it. My mom caught me looking at it.

"Honey, that's the guest bedroom," she said almost whispering it. I looked back at her with disbelief and she smiled. Then, I looked at the first door on the left. It led a pathway of steps leading downstairs so me being nosey, I walked down the steps cautiously. I reached the end of the steps, walked around the corner of a long hallway that followed it, and gasped at what I was. It was a huge in ground pool! It ranged from 5-9 feet deep and had a bunch of 3 feet kiddy pools surrounding it! It was awesome! I walked back up the steps and opened the second door on the left and found a home movie theatre. There were 3 rows of 5 movie theatre seats all facing the direction of a HUGE flat screen TV! This house was amazing! I awkwardly stumbled out of that room and looked in the third and last door on the first floor. I opened it slowly to find my very own dance studio! I shrieked so loud that my mom came running downstairs from the second floor to see what had happened.

"Max, honey! What happened?" she asked in a motherish tone.

"Oh mom! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I screamed while giving her a big hug!

"Well, you're welcome dear!" she said quietly embracing my hug.

I ran up to the second floor and found that that's where the kitchen, living room, and dinning room were. I climbed to the third floor and found three master bedrooms. The one in the middle I knew was my mom's. (She told me.) And when I heard an excited yell come from the room to the left of it, I new that that one belonged to Ella. So, I made my way over to the room on the right. I opened the door and stood in the doorway with my eyes growing wider and my mouth dropping open. My room was perfect! It had black walls with neon colored paint splatters all over the place, a small walk-in closet, two dressers, a vanity station, a big flat screen TV hanging on the wall, a king sized bed with bright red blankets and black and white pillows, and a balcony that had a small couch on it that held my favorite guitar and my art supplies. I walked into the bathroom to find a shower, a bathtub, a toilet and a marble-topped sink. It was all perfect!

I ran to find my mom and hive her a hug. When I finally reached her, I said, "Thank you so much mom! I love you!"

She laughed. "I love you too Max! You're welcome!"
