After I told my mom I wanted to go to the school she called them the next morning like she promised and now it's a week later and I'm leaving in a couple hours.
I'm almost done packing and I'm exhausted. It took me a while to figure out what things I want to bring with me and things I'm not bringing with me.
As I'm about to finish packing I hear a knock on my door.
"Come in!" I yell as I'm putting my makeup bag in the suitcase. I hear the door open, I look over my shoulder and see Ezekiel coming in my room throwing himself on my bed.
"Making yourself comfortable?" I ask sarcastically and smile at him as he rolls his eyes.
"Haha," Ezekiel fake laughs and continues looking at my suitcases. "I can't believe you're actually leaving." he says with a frown as I laugh.
"I know." I tell him as I lay down next to him.
"I'm gonna be so bored I'm gonna have no one to talk with." he says as his green eyes look at me with sadness.
"You have Alora." I pointed out.
"I know but I need someone close to my age to talk to." he says as he throws his hands in the air.
"You'll be ok Ez. Plus your friends practically live here, you won't be alone." I said.
"I guess." he says with a shrug as he stares at the ceiling but he immediately turns to me. "Promise you'll call?" he asks.
"I promise Zeke." I continue "Promise you'll always call me if you need to talk to me?" I ask.
"Promise." he says. I was about to say something but my door gets thrown open and Orion comes in and lays on the other side of me.
"Was no one gonna mention we were having a heart-to-heart sibling meeting?" he asks with a fake frown.
"Yes actually." Zeke says matter-of-factly as Orion grabs one of my pillows and throws it at him.
I roll my eyes at them and turn to Rion.
"How are you feeling?" Orion asks.
"I'm fine." I tell with a fake smile that he can most definitely see through.
"Aurelia." he says with a look.
"Fine, Fine, I'm terrified this school is so far away from Seattle." I told him.
"You'll be okay if you ever feel the need to call me, do so alright." he says and I nod.
Alora comes walking in my room and all three of us look at her.
"Mommy and Daddy said it's time to go." she says with her green eyes filling with tears
"Ok." I let out a breath. "Could you guys help me with the suitcases?"
"Ya." they say together.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrived at the airport and now I'm saying goodbye to my family.
"Promise you'll call at least every week." My mom says with tears rimming her eyes.
"Yes mom."
"Make sure you eat." she continues.
"M-" she interrupts.
"Make sure you get enough rest and please make friends. An-" she gets interrupted by My dad putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Mi reina don't overwhelm the girl." he chuckles.
"I'll be fine mom. Seriously, if I need anything I will let you know." I told her.
"Okay. Gosh, is it selfish? I don't want you to go anymore." She says as she fans away her tears. I laugh through my tears and hug her.
"I love you mom." "I love you too Lia." she whispers.
"I love you Cariño." Dad says as he pulls me into a hug.
"I love you too Dad." I whisper and pull away to turn to Orion.
"Be safe and no boys." He tells me as I roll my eyes and laugh. "Love you Ri" I say as he engulfs me to a hug.
"I love you too. But seriously no Boys." he tells me. I playfully hit his arm. He kisses my head and wipes some tears off his face.
"Are you leaving for college after this?" I ask him as he nods "Ya i'll be heading out in about an hour."
"Ok, drive safe." I tell him and turn to Ezekiel with tears in his eyes.
"Are you crying?" I tease him, wiping my own tears.
"No, they're just really dry. Gosh is someone cutting onions in here!" he says as he wipes his tears and pulls me into a hug. I laugh and hug him tightly.
"I love you sis." he says and kisses my cheek "I love you too Ezzy." I say as I pull away and ruffle his black hair.
"Not the hair and don't call me that!" he whines. I just chuckle and bend down to Alora's height.
She lunges at me and hugs me tightly while sobbing.
"I don't want you to go, Lia." she cries.
"Aww Lora you'll be okay you have Zeke." I tell her as I cup her face in my hands to make her look up at me. I frown when I see those green eyes filled with tears.
"I know but I don't want you to leave. Ri Ri is already leaving to go back to college and now you're leaving too." she sobs. I frown and pull her back into a hug.
"Listen to me. Take care of mommy, daddy, and Zeke okay. And if you ever want to talk, call me. You are welcome to sleep in my room if you miss me alright. I left Mr. Teddy there for you to cuddle with okay." I tell her as she nods against my chest. I kiss her head.
I have this Teddy bear that I have had since I was seven and Alora always wants to play with it but I always tell her no cause the bear is special to me but I thought if I left it there if she ever missed me.
"I love you Aurelia." "I love you too Al."
"Flight 734 to Rosewood, New York is ready to board!"
My family gives me one last hug and kisses on my head before I head to the airplane.
