To Catch A Star

Chapter Two

It's Saturday the 25th of March, 7:15 AM. Andi is in a blissful, deep sleep. The house is quiet apart from the quiet tapping of fingers on a phone - Rosalie had always been an early riser.

The peacefulness wouldn't last long, however. The postman had arrived, which was an odd occurrence at this early hour, and a heavy thud was heard followed by the tap of the letterbox closing shut. Rosalie got up, picked up the mail from the floor... various letters and junk... Suddenly, she drops everything, bar one heavy, A4 envelope. She stares at the mail in her hand, eyes fixed on the familiar logo neatly in the top left corner. A huge grin forms on her face, then she's off, sprinting up the stairs.

Rosalie bursts through the door of her parents' bedroom loudly causing her dad to sit up and blink rapidly at the intrusion.

"What the hell Rosie?!"

She doesn't say anything, instead choosing to wave the envelope in his face wildly, bouncing on the balls of her feet with the same huge grin she had since the letter had arrived. Jason takes the envelope, flipping it over in his hand when his eyes also widen. He then turns over to his right and proceeds to not-so-gently shake his wife awake, who was still sleeping soundly despite the commotion.

"Hey! Pack it in!"

Andi growls, promptly turning on her side and pulling the covers over her head. Jason snatches the covers back not giving in, she turns over and glares.

"Get. Off!"

"Look!"

Jason half-shouts and nearly smacks her in the face with the heavy envelop, earning him another glare. Muttering, she takes the envelope from him and blinks at it sleepily. Same as her daughter and husband, her eyes widen as her sleep-addled brain takes it in and promptly drops the envelope on the bed as if it burned. Oh no... oh shit! There in the corner was the logo for WWE... Oh no... Oh shit!

"OPEN IT!"

Rosalie dove onto the bed before sitting back on her calves, still bouncing in excitement. It was obvious to Jason that his wife was not going to move anytime soon, apparently in shock... so he plucks the letter from where it landed on the bed and opens it. The first page was a formal letter, so he read aloud,

"Congratulations, you have been selected to participate in our new Health and Wellness programme. Please be reminded that this is a twelve-month programme and home visits will be noted in your schedule inside this information pack.

"GAH!"

Rosalie screamed before pouncing on her still frozen mother.

Jason flicked through the rest of the envelope's contents, a time schedule for home visits planned every two months, a list of necessities, a description of what to expect in classes, travel details and finally a single plane ticket dated the 29th July.

Andi was slowly coming out of her frozen form, wrapping her arms securely around Rosalie. This was real, she had been accepted... Out of all those people, all those countries they had chosen her. She thought back to the conversation she had with her daughter. Her health was on the line, this could be her get out of jail free card... this would change her life!

________________________________________________________________________________

Later that same day Andi was whisked away by her daughter, sister-in-law and eldest niece to get some gym clothes and (to Andi's absolute horror) a couple of dresses. WWE had planned a few nights out to "build confidence". Bull, Andi had thought and determined that she would not be partaking in that particular activity. However, she found herself letting herself be dragged around purely to see her daughter smiling so much, to see her so happy and excited. At nearly twelve years old, her daughter had always been a mini-adult due to her autism... So, seeing her so care-free and happy, throwing clothes and ridiculous heels Andi's way while laughing uncontrollably, was a sight to behold.

Over the next four months, Andi would go through every emotion possible, see family and friends with her daughter never out of sight. She feels that time is moving way to quickly for her liking, the panic she feels in her chest, the bubble-like feel in her throat never quite leaving.

She has late night chats with her husband which included every worry, every fear and his comfort, encouraging conversations with her daughter (or more like commands), stern talks from her brothers about how she should take this as a lifeline, teasing from her sister-in-law and niece (because of her ridiculous teen-like crush on WWE superstar, Seth Rollins) and comforting, calming words from her parents.

Pretty soon she would be going on a twelve-hourflight (ALONE) to a place where she knew nobody... What Andi didn't know was justhow much her life was going to change...
