A Christmas Wish Come True (part ll)

Chapter Twelve

Amy's POV:

Maria slams on the breaks and her eyes widen.

Amelia just places her hand on Maria's shoulder gently.  "Maria, please go.  Just bring us either to Amy's house, or my parents'."

Maria looks at Amelia for a moment, probably considering the idea.  But instead of going back to my house, she just pulls out of where we were parked and drives as fast as she can to the place we just fled.

I hold the side of the door to my right as tight as I can.  I start feeling a little dizzy, and forgot I get motion sickness after awhile.  I slowly put my hand over my mouth.

Amelia sees me and her eyes widen.  She manages to pass me a bag right before i get sick all over the car.

Maria just keeps driving, her face white with worry.  Beads of precipitation on her forehead as her eyes are full of worry.

Amelia just turns to her while grabbing her hand and holding it.  After a moment, Maria slams on the breaks once more making me hit my forehead on the back of Amelia's seat.

Maria quickly gets out of the car, Amelia following close behind.  I decide to stay in the car just in case something happens.  After a moment of watching,  Amelia's and Maria's silouttes  dissapear.

I gulp as i wait silently for them to come back.  After ten minutes, my nails are bit so much that i really don't have much nail on my fingers and they hurt.  Why aren't they back yet? I wonder nervously.

After a moment I hear someone knock.  I stifle a scream when I see it's Amelia knocking on the window.   She's silently asking me to unlock the car.

I calm down after a minute as I unlock the car doors for Maria and Amelia.  Maria climbed in her seat so does Amelia. 

"Well," Maria says annoyed.  "He's gone."

Amelia just puts her hand gently on Maria's shoulder.  "Maria, it's alright, we'll find him and take him down soon."

Maria calms down after a moment of taking a deep breath, and she starts the car again.

"You alright Amy?"  Amelia asks softly while looking back at me. 

I gulp the gross aftertaste in my mouth from getting sick, and  nod. 

At this moment Amelia held Maria's hand tighter, her thumb on top of Maria's and her thumb stroking the top of Maria's hand gently.  "Maria."  Amelia says calmly as Maria's about to pull out of the abandoned parking lot. 

"Yeah?"  Maria asks, looking at Amelia for a moment.

"Take us home."  Amelia says quietly. 

Home?  I wonder.  What does she mean by home?

Maria stops the car for a moment while looking at Amelia like she's crazy.  "Ami, you sure?" 

She nods slightly while starring out the window.  "I'm sure." 

"Okay."  Is all Maria said before hesitantly pulling out of the parking lot.

My eyes widen as we drove on Mary lane. 

I saw Amelia's grip go slightly tighter on Maria's hand as we drive coser to the house I went to go to  many times about a year ago. 

We were at Amelia's parents' house. 

"Come on."  Amelia says as she gets out.  I notice that Maria is real nervous for some reason.

Maria's POV:

Oh my God I'm so nervous.

Besides that time Amelia passed, I haven't been formally introduced to her family. Plus, I don't think her parents approve.
