My Alpha's Heart Forever

Chapter 2-The Journey Begins

I laid bundled up in my blankets as I enjoyed the quiet of the early morning with no one running around. All my thoughts ran rampant in my little world. It's not a good place to be. Sometimes these images can be rather disturbing. Even though it seems scary to leave to an unknown place, at least I can finally get the missing answers to the questions that continue to haunt my mind lately. I can smell the delicious, smoky fragrance of apple smoke bacon cooking that sends me rolling out of my bed quickly.

Entering the massive walk-in bathroom that connects to my bedroom, I realize; this is my favorite place in the entire house. Why? you ask It's simple, Not every bathroom has a massive size bathtub that you can fit a whole football squad that lets you sink in and surrounds you with bubbles from jets swirling around you. After doing what I need to do there, I make my way downstairs to grab breakfast. Previous experience taught me before: If I want to eat, I got to be quick, or Nick and his friends will eat everything in sight.

If anyone would see how much they eat, they'd wonder where it all went. I once asked Nick's friend Jason that and was told he's a fat man inside of a skinny body, shaking my head as I watched the scene unfold in front of me. You'd think idiots surrounded me every day. 22- years- old and all of them running around having food fights and sticking ice cubes down each other's pants. 

"Would you morons stop and grow up for once?" I yelled as the kitchen door squeaked. We all turned around as we heard a sound from the doorway. Luther was standing by the door looking bored and asked if I had everything together so we could get started and head out to the airport.

Nick, realizing it was finally happening that I was leaving, came over and hugged me with tears in his eyes. Standing there wrapped in each other's arms, we heard the front door open. Thinking it was Luther going out to the car to put our stuff in the trunk, but it turns out it was his mom and dad. Guess they cut their trip short and came home sooner than expected.

 "Shana and Nick, what in the hell is going on here? Why are there strange men in our driveway standing around?"

"Would you believe it if I said they were aliens coming to take us to their leaders for continued studies?" I asked, rolling my eyes at them. "Why should you even care about what's going on, anyway? You're a good one for keeping secrets from people."

Turning around and walking out the door, I felt like I could finally say goodbye to what I once perceived as my life. As I stepped outside, I found Luther leaning against an all-black Audi R8, talking to some of his friends. As I walked over and joined all of them, he asks if everything was ok and if I were ready to leave.

"Just open the door, Luther, and let's just go." You can tell everyone around here knows what's going on. Even my friends see I am leaving, but no one comes up telling me bye, or even asks what's going on. Well, damn, they didn't care about me as much as I thought; Real friends would see why I was leaving and try to stop me.

Luther opens the door for me. As I'm about to slide into the car, I heard Nick yelling for me. I turned to see what he wanted and saw him running down the driveway with his bags."Nick, where do you think you are going? I thought you said you had to stay and take care of your dad's business."

"Shana, there's been a slight change in plans, You've got an extra person going with you. Now that my father's back, there is no reason for me to stay and oversee the company; he can take care of the damn thing himself."

"He always takes off for parts unknown and leaves it all up to me to do. Now it's my turn to do him, just as he does everyone else. You know I live by that golden rule, Right? Do unto others as they do unto you: Because to put it simply if I don't get away from here and all these ignorant people. Who doesn't even have the sense the good Lord gave to them; I'm going to purge every idiot around here," Nick told me as he tossed his bag in the car's trunk.

"Well, let's get this show on the road now." We all piled into the car and made our way to the airport. Luther drove the car we climbed in, As his buddies drove the remaining vehicles. I watched the scene unfold in front of us. All you could see for miles were black cars racing down the highway at breakneck speed.

While Nick, being the dumbass that he was, rolled the window down. Pulled his pants down, mooning every car that drove by in the next lane beside us. I stood up, leaned over my seat, and smacked the back of his head. "Nick, for all you know, there could have been an undercover in one of those damn cars" I shook my head and laughed at him. I put my headphones in and turned on my favorite music artist, BTS. Some may think I am nuts for liking a group I can't understand, but their music moves me in a way that nothing else can.

We make it to the airport just in time to catch our plane. Thanks to my unknown grandparents, we have our private airplane. It's so spacious, reminding me of a mini apartment in the sky; We all have our bedrooms as well. The all-pink color scheme could use a bit of a change. I mean, for real, who wants to be caught, flying in a machine that looks like a monstrous bottle of Pepto. Ewww!

The other members sitting in the airplane cabin watch me with hidden amusement as I went over and took the black sharpie pen from Jay with a devilish grin on my face. The face of my brother was an open canvas waiting for me to create my masterpiece. On his left cheek leading to his mouth, I drew a penis, with the words I think I'm god's gift to women written at the top of his forehead.

With my camera in hand, I snapped a few quick pictures posing behind him as I flashed my million-dollar smile, giving everyone my favorite salute, middle finger, and all. Jay and I went over, admiring Shana's artwork. Laughing at the sight in front of me, I just had to know the truth "Shana, do you do this stuff to him all the time?" The massive smirk on her face was priceless as she nodded her head. I joined her as well, getting some pictures of a passed-out Nick, who was oblivious to the penis on his face. Payback is a dish best served cold!
