Stole My Heart <3

Chapter 2

Principle: “As most of you know, we had the contract with The Canadian Airlines for us to promote them for our yearbooks. The Airlines also wanted to do a small promotion for their new extreme luxury seated planes by giving us two round trip tickets for 3 weeks to whenever you want in the world in the new extreme seating!”

The whole auditorium goes from a quite confusion to bursting out into cheers. I’m in complete shock though. I have ALWAYS wanted to go to Europe!! All around Europe or just anywhere in it!

“WAIT GUYS!!! You don’t know the catch yet” the principle leads on.

“There are ONLY TWO tickets and tons of you guys want them. We are having a raffle for them. Every grade 12 students are entered into the giant bin unless they would prefer not to enter”

We are all completely silent with anticipation.

“We draw only ONE name, and that person gets BOTH tickets, so they can decide whether to go with family, friends, or give them to someone else.”

We all cheer in enthusiasm!!

“When is the draw?!?!” a student yells from somewhere in the front.

The principle carrys on “The draw will be on Friday, after school. All grades can attend, you are to be in the gym after school and the actual drawing of the name will be around 3:15pm. I know its last minute, because today is already Wednesday but…”

She gets cut off with our loud screams and cheers.

“Everyone is dismissed now!!” She yells into the microphone just trying to get louder than us.

**Gabby POV**

Oh my god…If Vanessa or I won these we could go to Europe! We have both dreamed of going there.

Me:  ‘If you win, I am taking you…And if you win, you are taking me!’

I yell at her

Vanessa:  “Nah…I think I’m going to take Katie”

she said sarcastically.

Me:  ‘You’re a horrible liar…I already know your taking me because you HATE Katie! Plus, would you rather go with your snot bag brother? Or your parents that you barely talk to?’

Vanessa: ‘You mean my mom. He’s not my dad…’

                I know Vanes’ dad died when she was young and now she lives with her mom and her mom’s boyfriend that she has always hated but they are like parents to her. I guess she can’t see that. I think she only doesn’t like him because she misses her dad….

**Vanessa POV**

Of course I’m going to take Gabs! She is my best friend and one of the only people I talk to. I barely even talk to my parents and my brother is just a drunk idiot that won’t move out! Also, me and Gabby both would KILL to go to ANYWHERE in Europe.

Gabby: ‘Sooo…Europe right?’

All of a sudden a thought comes over me. The chances of us winning are soooooo small. There is like NOOOO chance!! Why are we getting out hopes up if this will never happen? So I decided to bring up this thought to her.

Gabby:  ‘I know but, it’s fun to think about… Just me and you walking the streets of England or France or Italy or Rome!!’

Me:  ‘It would be pretty amaZAYN….’

Gabby: ‘I see what you did there!’

Gabs and I share our love for music. The crazy thing about us is you can give us an iPod with almost ANY kind of music and we will listen to it anyways. It’s our little way of escaping the world and being in our own happy place. But of course, we have our preferred groups and artists. One Direction because they are 1Derfuly talented plus they’re sexy, Marianas Trench because they are talented and my inspiration through hard times, Adele because she has an amazing voice and great lyrics, and other random bands like SimplePlan, Hedley, Coldplay!

Gabby:  ‘But…If we did win…What part of Europe you would want to go to?’

Me: ‘Its all seems amazing!! I was thinking France or something, but then from there we could visit other places of Europe for a few days because we have 3 weeks!’

Gabby: ‘Oh my god!! We could go to a whole bunch of places!!’

She said enthusiastically

Me: ‘Dude….It’s never going to happen’

Gabby: ‘Why must you crush my dreams!?!’

She said playfully.

Me: ‘Hey! It wasn’t me! It’s everyone else whose names are going into the draw…Now I have to go to English then art. I’ll talk to you after school!!’

Gabby: ‘Okay! I have drama…Bye!! Love you girl’

Me: ‘Love you too girly’

And we set off for our afternoon classes. When I think about it, Gabby and I are actually pretty talented. We are both the worst singers you could ever hear in your life, but my passion is art and dancing and her acting skills are PHENOMINAL! She does voice imitations and they sound sooo real, I swear she could be one of those cartoon vocalists that does nearly every character’s voice and I could draw the characters! She can also act out ANY scene or character you give her! But for her It must pretty awesome having a friend (me) that can actually draw a portrait of her without it looking like random scribbles on a paper.
