Stolen My Heart

Chapter 2

South Carolina's airport was as cramped and stuffy as the plane on the way here. the building smelt of sweat and damp. 

"Oh your here!" i turned to see a elder woman clutching a skinny little child, who couldnt have been older then ten.

"Mommy! Iv missed you!" 

They embraced in a huge bear hug.

and thats when it kicked in - thats when i realized that i wouldnt be seeing my mother and father, and sister for at least six months, maybe more. 

"LOLA!"

in the distant, i heard a familiar soothing voice calling out my name. 

"Aunt Lisa!" i squealed as I headed towards a small, chubby lady. God, it seems like forever since iv seen her wild curly golden, brown hair.

"Hello au....." i got cut off before i could finish my sentance, by a huge, secure hug. my dirtyblonde hair got tangeled in her silky curls, the smell of her favourite perfume, angel, drowned me. my face got pushed up in her smooth leather jacket. 

"oh darling! you look even more beautiful every time i see you!" she exclaimed pulling away from me.

i looked down at myself. i wasnt exactly wearing anything special. just some baggy cargo pants, a black strappy tee, and some black converses, whilst my hair was pulled up into a messy ponytail. 

"phft! yea, ok lisa!" i rolled my eyes at her. she was so sweet trying.

she shook her head and sighed. 

"You'll believe me soon" she mumbeled under her breath. 

I didnt have time to answer. Because at that moment, i saw my tall, large uncle dragging my pale blue suitcase along the floor. 

"Uncle Brad!" I laughed jumping towards him

"Lola!" He placed my suitcase down and pulled me up into his arms. 

"Long time no see little girl!" he stared at me for a while then laughed,

"Or should i say, young woman!" he winked at me before placing me down. 

I love Lisa and Brad, there amazing. Both of them are so kind hearted, i trust them with my life. last time i visted them was about,five years ago. At that time it was all of us, me, my mom, dad, and sophia (my sister.) We all had so much fun in there gigantic house, me and my sister would chase each other around - then we would eventually get lost, and cry. 

"So, are you looking forward to staying with us?" Brad smiled at me, we were in the car, on our way to the house. It was at least about fifty minutes away from the airport, plenty of time for them to interegate me about god know's anything. 

"Yes of course." i smiled, polietly, closing my eyes. It had been a long flight, and i was so tired!

"Good, you know you'll be staying in the guest house?" 

i immedently sat up.

"What!?" I exclaimed, grinning to myself.

the guest house was the most beautiful little house in all of america. well, i think so.  ever since me and my sister were little, we have always wished to stay in the guest house. it's painted a pale blue colour, with white and baby pink rose's climbing up the side. it has a tiny yellow kitchen/ dining room/ lounge, then upstairs a bathroom and double bed. Everything in the house is either pale blue, white, or pink. I have always loved it.

"Yea, did you really think you would be living with us for months on end?" Lisa chuckeld to herself as we pulled up onto the drive. 

She was actually being serious, i couldn't beleive it! You dont know how long iv waited to stay in the guest house. 

"Actually, we have to go few some rules." Brad started, the car came to a gentle stop outside their house. just 90 degrees to the left was the guest house, my future home!

"Shoot." i said, i would literally do anything to be in that house! 

"There's a list left for you on the table inside the house," Lisa started, "It has everything you need to know about it." she smiled. 

They both exited the car at the same time, and by the time i got out, my bag was alreadyinfront of me.

"Here," Brad held out a single silver key to me, reflecting his ginormas smile. 

"thank you thank you thank you!" i squealed yanking the keys out of his hand and hugging himso tightly he would probably burst if he was any larger, 

"Just one last thing," Lisa turned to me, "Go in tonight, there's some pizza in the fridge, eat it, then go to sleep. It's been a long day." She sighed smiling at me. 

"Thank you so much guy's, for everything." I smiled hugging them. 

"ah, no problem, just come see us tomorrow morning Lola."

"Will do," i smiled aa i watched them enter the house, waving after them. 

i turned to the beautiful house, even in the dark it look incredible. i was so pleased that Lisa and Brad trusted me to look after there guest house, i actually felt honoured. 

Walking up the white, pebble path for the first time this year, made me proud. I was moving on with my life, and it's gonna be great!

i opened the bright white door, dragging my suitcase behind me, and gasped, The floor had dark wooden boards with white fur rugs spread across the floor, the dark wooden table had a pale blue table cloth spread out on it, with a bunch of beautiful pink and white flowers, the white kitchen was sparkly clean, even the oven, microwave and coffee machine was glittering.

the last room downstairs was the lounge, it had a small, two seat sofa, pale blue. with a pink blanket on the side, and multicoloured pillows, a mini table with a lamp, and a small telly. The marble white fireplace in the corner was obviously very expensive. 

As i made my towards the stairs, something caught my eye on the table. It was the list of rule's Brad and Lisa left for me, and boy did it look long! 

Sighing, i picked it up. God i was soooo tired, and i really wasn't in the mood to read through this list of things i had to do! Ever since i was little, Lisa and Brad had always been so organised, every where had been squeaky clean, and they were never late for anything. I used to get annoyed by how perfect there family was, but now, i think it's a blessing that im related to them.

1# Please look after this house, it's yours for as long as you need it, 

2# You can come over to us whenever you want, dont need to ask, just come.

3# We insist you come over for dinner every sunday night, if you dont want to one night, please inform us!

4# There's some food in the cupboards, but soon you may have to go out and get some more, if you do, come on over and we'll give you some money....

I read the rest of the list as i went upstairs to the amazing bedroom, it hadnt changed since the last time i saw it, just a few improvments, especially in the bathroom. 

Diving into my cosy, comfy double bed. I realized that my life has suddenly taken a turn. 

"Everything might just turn out better then expected...." 

I whispered to myself.

and at that moment, I knew it actually might.
