I finally decided on going to Los Angeles and last night I packed everything I needed and was ready to travel. Niall and Louis would be with my at the airport with my dad until I left.

Once everything was ready Niall was waiting for me in the car. I got inside to find Louis sitting in the back seat. "I'm going to miss you guys so much." I mumbled, looking through my back to get my phone. "Don't you forget to call us every single day you're there." Louis warned, making Niall laugh. "Calm down Louis, I'll only be gone for seven days." I joked.

Once we got to the airport we met up with my dad and went through the transportation process. "Bye guys." I said, giving Louis a long hug and Niall a hug and a kiss on the lips. "I love you." He whispered in my ear, making me blush. "Love you too." I replied as I let go of the long hug.

Once we got inside the airplane I turned on a movie to watch and checked my phone for any texts before I would have to turn off my phone.

Blocked Number- Bye bitch, I have Niall all to myself now.

That's it, now I knew exactly who this was. Sasha is such a bitch and this text just proves it. This made me extremely uneasy, I would have to keep updated with everything Niall is doing over the week that I will be gone or else I'll go crazy thinking he's cheating on me even though he's not like that. "Elizabeth is extremely excited to finally get to meet you, and Catherine can't wait to get to see you for the first time." My dad said in excitement. I gave him a fake smile and a small nod and went back to watching my movie. By the time the movie is finished we would be in Los Angeles.

I was finally here, it felt so strange. It was warm even though it was October. We were soon greeted by a blonde woman that looked like she was in her forties, and a tall, blonde young girl who I'm guessing was Catherine. I have to admit she looked beautiful, her face features were soft and her body was perfect. "Hi! I'm Elizabeth, your technical step mom, and this is Catherine, my daughter. It is so nice to actually meet you, I mean Greg always talked about you but in real life you look so beautiful." Elizabeth said, she had a friendly smile but for some reason I didn't feel welcomed at all. Catherine didn't even bother to say hi, she was on her cell phone the entire time which really pissed me off.

Once we got to my dads house I was extremely amazed. It was twice the size of my moms house, and there were three cars parked in the parking lot. The inside had a nice Victorian look, it had a nice look by didn't make me feel at home at all. I felt so out of place. "You will be staying in our guest room for the week, if you don't want to you can stay with Catherine." Said my dad, showing me where the guest room was. I walked upstairs with all my things, and entered the guest room which looked like the bedrooms in hotels.

I laid my things on the bed and got out my laptop, checking for any emails from work. I promised to work from home before I left for Los Angeles. Once I finished the sketches for the fall line I shut down my laptop and put it away. "It's time for dinner." Catharine said bluntly, walking by my room. I walked downstairs to the large and elegant dining room, which had nearly eight different types of foods laid out on the table. "Wow this looks really good, you really didn't have to do this." I said, taking a seat near my dad. "Oh I must; you are my daughter after all." She said, giving me a friendly smile. I guess I could get used to Elizabeth, but Catharine seems like a total snob.

We ate in silence, my Dad and Elizabeth trying to start conversations but me and Catherine replied in simple "okay" or "that's cool", causing a dead end conversation. I quickly put my plate away and made sure to thank Elizabeth for the amazing food, then ran upstairs. I got my laptop out and went on Skype, I just wanted to see Niall's face right now. After a few calls he picked up, he had on a bright smile and was shirtless in his bed. Seeing him made me smile, and so far was the highlight of my day.

"Hey babe, how is Los Angeles so far?" He asked, giving me a cute wink. "I don't know, I feel like Catharine doesn't like me very much, but Elizabeth seems really nice." I said, venting out all my thoughts to him. "Well I'm sure Catherine feels just like you, it's not easy finding out you have a sibling so suddenly." He pointed out, and I guess he was right. I love how tries to make sense of everything. "I guess you're right, maybe if I get to know her she'll get nicer?" I asked and he nodded in agreement. After talking for nearly thirty more minutes I closed back my laptop and changed into my pajamas.

I was extremely tired when Catharine walked into my room. "Sorry for being a bitch." She said emotionless. "It's okay. I've been meaning to apologize too; it's not easy finding out about things like this all so suddenly." I explained. "Yeah my dad totally scared the shit out of me when he told me I wasn't an only child." She joked, making me laugh. "Trust me, he didn't tell me the best way either." I replied.

We talked and joked around for almost thirty more minutes. "So tell me about that guy Niall." She joked, poking me in the chest. "Well he's perfect for me, he listens to me and he's there when I need him the most." I explained, realizing that I was smiling the entire time I talked about him. "You're so lucky, all the boys in my school are so immature." She complained, laying on the bed. "Don't worry, it gets better; and this is coming from a girl who had braces, was over weight, had only one friend who was her teacher, and had bangs." I said, remembering those dark high school days. "Wow, time has changed you." She said, as we both laughed for no reason at all when Elizabeth walked in the room. "Listen girls I'm really glad you're getting to know each other but I'm afraid it's getting late, and Maria needs some rest honey." She said, talking to Catharine. "Alright well see you in the morning!" Said Catharine as we both said good night to each other.

I got under the covers of the comfortable bed and fell asleep quickly, considering how tired I was.
