(Back to regular time now- May)
I woke up on a bright shiny Saturday morning. I rolled over with my fantastic hair do to check my phone. Note the sarcasm.
I had a text from Aunt Kim:
Hey Sweetheart, I called your mom and she said you were pretty stressed. Call me ASAP, I have a plan.
I clicked call and the phone started to ring.
After 30 minutes of being on the phone with her, I was already in a better mood. This time tomorrow, I'd be on a plane traveling to South Caroline to visit them.
My mom came into my room after listening to me talk on the phone.
"You're okay with going down there right? Kim and I bought your tickets knowing you would be." She laughed leaning against the door.
"Uh. Yeah! I haven't seen them in ages!" I smiled.
"Okie dokie, it's settled then!" She smiled.
I got up and started to pack my clothes and clean my room. My flight was scheduled for 6 tomorrow morning so I'd have to leave here by 4.
Mom and I headed out for a girls day since we needed to grab some things for our suit cases.
By the time we got home it was late so we finished off lacking and hit the sack.
The alarm went off extra loud this morning as I changed into my shorts and a black T-shirt with flip flops and a sweatshirt for the plane.
"Ready to go sweetie?" Mom asked coming out with her bags.
"Yeah" I grabbed an apple from the glass bowl.
"Okay, head out to the car." She went first and I followed.
We boarded the plane and found our seats, I'd be a quick ride, only 2 hours.
I fell asleep within the first 30 minutes, my mom did her work on the laptop and before we knew it we were in South Carolina.
We had to wait 20 minutes to get off but when we did, it was extremely warm.
"We made it!" My mom yelled walking into the airport.
We walked to the escalator and made our way to the front where Kim was waiting.
I saw her car and we both started running, our suitcases trailing behind.
"AUNT KIM!" I screamed and she opened her arms wide for the both of us to hug each other.
"I'm so glad you came!" She squeezed us hard.
The ride to the beach house wasn't long, maybe about 20 minutes. When we pulled up it was this huge white house, it looked like a resort.
I walked in, threw my stuff in my room and went pee.
"So where's Justin and Brenden?" I asked.
"Out back with the boys! Justin had the team over after swim" she walked to the huge French doors overlooking the pool and hot tub, not to mention the bar and fireplace area.
"I don't wanna go out there and bug them.." I looked out at them playing in the pool. One thing you should definitely know about me, I'm extremely shy.
"Oh shush! Stop being such a girl and go have fun!" She opened the doors and pushed me.
I gave her the death look because Justin saw me and waved for me to go down.
"Hey, Justin!" I hugged him after he dried off.
"Hey! I'm glad you guys were able to come!" He smiled.
