The Boy Next Door

Chapter 16

Chapter 16:

"What?!" I say. "Okay." We hang up.

"What happened?" Allysse asks looking worried.

"It's Mum, she's very ill and she's in the ER. They say she might not make it," I sob.

"Oh, Kath! Everything'll be fine!" Allysse says hugging me. I pull away.

"Promise you won't be angry?" I say. (Author: I SERIOUSLY MEAN IT!)

"Why would I be?" She asks softly. I smile.

"Just joking!" I start laughing. "Only the tyre's punchured."

"Why yoou little!" Allysse grabs a pillow and stomps it on my face.

"PILLOW FIGHT!" I cry. We grab pillow and fight. (Author: You guys mad at me now?) We stop and we both laugh.

"That was a good joke but too sensitive!" Allysse says.

"Oh I'm sorry but you should have seen you're face at that time, Aly!" I say.

"You're such a drama queen!" Allysse laughs. "So how long will it take?"

"An extra half an hour, no bigggie," I say. "They tyre's almost fixed."

"Good," Allysse says.

(half an hour later)

"Josh says they're almost here just a few minutes," I say.

"Lets pick up our things and wait for them outside," Allysse says. So we grab our belongings and get in the lift and go to the ground floor. We walk outside to the enterence and wait patiently.

"There, they're here!" I point. My family's black Land Rover drives in and Allysse's family's  white SUV too. My mother gets out of the car and so does Allysse's mother. First they great each other and come towards us.

"Darlings! We are so proud of you two!" They both hug the both of us. And then we sit in our own cars.

"Made me proud, Kath!" Dad smiles in the front mirror.

"Epic sister," Alex and Ash say.

"So happy," Josh says. I smile in return.

"Thanks guys," I say. We drive to the London Eye which is about few kilometers away from our hotel. We all enjoy the ride and then gather around our cars to hear what's up next.

"Now, Logan. Movie?" Dad says to Allysse's father, Logan Patrickson.

"Yes, Michael, let's go to the cinema," Mr. Parikson says.

"Which film?" I ask out of curiousity.

"Into the Woods," Mum replies. Allysse shots a 'I told you so' look. We pile up in our cars and drive to the cinema.

"Dad, can I get some popcorns, and drinks and marshmallows?" Alex asks. I frown.

"We'll be late!" I cry.

"I thought you were changed but you aren't!" Alex replies.

"Go get it," Dad says. Alex pokes his tongue at me and Ash and Alex rush. Allysse and I sit together.

"Got me anything?" I ask Ash.

"I thought you were late," Alex says. I frown.

"I hate you," I say.

"Save it," he says and hands me a large box of pop corns and two drinks, one for Allysse and the other for me. We enjoy the film with pop corns and drinks.

"OWW!" I cry.

"Shhhhhhh!" Some one cries. "Shut up!" Something hard had hit me. I look behind me. Alex sat there. He waves at me.

"HI!" He cries and throws a marshmallow at my face.

"Stop it!" I cry.

"Make me," he replies.

"Agh!" I cry. The girl next to me glares at me and frowns. I turn and face the screen.

"Ignore," Allysse whispers in my ear. After the movie we go to dine out.
