I was awakened by someone shaking me. "Hey wake up we're landed." she said. I opened my eyes. I grabbed my bags and began walking off the plane. "Hey! Wait up!w the same girl shouted running toward me. "Im Marisa." She said. "Reilly." I said shaking her hand. "What's that stuff on you?" she asked. "Blood." I answered strait forwardly. "Oh." she said. "Hey let's swap numbers and maybe we can be friends." he said handing me her phone. I handed her my bloody one and we swapped numbers. I quickly called Luke.

L: Hey!

R: Where's Ashton?

L: He went for a ride around town.

R: Ok

L: Are you landed?

R: Yeah.

L: I miss you.

R: I miss you too Luke.

L: *Chuckles*

R: I've got to find my grandma so i'll call you later.

L: ok Bye. and please be carful.

R: ok bye Luke.

*hangs up*

"So, who's Luke? A boyfriend?" Marisa asked. "no we're just friends. "Ok 'just friends'." she said using finger quotes. I see my grandma and walk to her. she pulls me into a hug. "Oh Reilly! You've gotten so tall!" she smiled. On the car ride to grandmas I tried texting Ashton.

R: Ash? please answer?

A: Sorry your text could not be sent.

I swung my head back against the seat and turned my phone off. "Where are we?" I asked. "Mississippi." she said. "Missi whaty?" I asked. "A state, in America." She answered. "Do I have to go go to school?" I asked. "Yes." she said not taking her eyes off the road. "But what if people think my accent is weird?" I ask. "They won't." she answered. "How do you know that?" I ask. "Because, I won't let them." she answered. We pulled up at a two story yellow house. It was surrounded by a white privacy fence. We got out and walked up the white wooden steps to the front porch. We walked in. "Follow me." She said walking up the stairs. I followed her and we ended up in a pastel blue room. "This is your room. Hang what you want on the walls. You can't paint them though. Oh and there's no smoking, drinking, and sneaking out." she said. I nodded. "You need any help unpacking?" she asked. "Nah." I said. she nodded and walked out. I walked around the large room. there was a glass desk and two more doors In The room. I opened one to reveal a bathroom. The other was a walk in closet. I put my clothes away and put my laptop and phone on my desk. When I finished I pulled my shoes off and and plopped down in the black spinning chair in front of the desk. I opened my laptop and put in my earbuds. I watched some DanIsNotOnFire and AmazingPhil on YouTube. "Reilly! Come down! It's dinner time!" my grandma called up. I pulled out my earbuds and paused the video. I walked down the stairs to the kitchen where my grandparents were sitting at a brown wooden table. On the table there was a big plate if spaghetti, a bowl of garlic bread, some green peas, and a pitcher of what looks like tea. I sat down in one of the four chairs around the table. "Well Reilly, how ya liking Gautier?" my grandpa asked. "What's a Gautier?" I asked. "The city we live in." He answered. "Well it's no Sydney." I answered. "I know sweetie." He said. I fixed a plate of spaghetti and a piece of bread. "You want some tea?" my grandma asked. I nodded. she fixed me a glass and I drank it. we finished eating and my grandma started to clean the kitchen. "He Cheryl? Im gonna go on up to bed I have work tomorrow." my grandpa said. "ok night honey." she said. "Night grandpa." I said. I picked up my plate and brought it to the sink. "You don't have to help I usually do it by myself." my grandma said. "When I lived with James, I did too." I said. we finished cleaning and we went to bed. I took a shower and put on an oversized sweater and some black leggings. I plugged my phone in and laid in the bed. soon I was asleep.
