miss may [richelle] ON HOLD

chapter one- beach day, boy day

Of course richelle had always wanted to see her parents again. But there was nothing to be done, she was so young when it had happened... only just turned nine.

It was like lightning had hit her. One day they were there, wishing her a happy birthday and the next, somewhere richelle had always wondered about. Noah, Richelle's brother wasn't as worried. It had confused her but she decided to just let it go already. He'd probably just accepted it quicker.. He never was very close to them after all..

"Noah, how do I let them go?" Richelle questioned her brother one day. "I dunno.. "  "Noah, enough joking. tell me"
"mhmm." "like you really care about it that much, you're just trying to act strong." Noah replied harshly.
"Noah, you can actually leave me alone for once?" "That'd be nice." Richelle snapped back- only more harsh this time.

Richelle wasn't a princess anymore. She had grown up, faster than Noah expected. That's the main reason why he is so bitter towards everyone, mainly richelle if you think about it enough. Either way he was overly jealous of his younger sister. He loves her and all, but she can be such a spoiled brat sometimes.

Richelle just pondered back up to her room, as rich as she was it was simple as could be. Bed near the left corners, nail polish shelf with only about 100+ polishes that richelle never seems to use. She had a huge vanity with a clothes & makeup drawer nearby aswell. On her bedside table there were her prized possessions... her iPhone 5c, her harry potter books and her picture of her parents when they weren't missing..

I suppose I'm not really a brat.. " "just if someone bugs me then maybe I might be a bit rude towards them." Richelle presumed. She figured if she doesn't know herself then no one else can either. that's why she makes a wall. So no one can get in and figure out what's really happening to her. That is her biggest fear.

The clock struck 11:00pm an as per usual noah ordered his little sister to bed. She threw her head back, groaned and stumbled upstairs. Richelle just threw the covers over her head making somewhat to her amusement- a fort. It wasn't a very good one but at least she had more privacy.

Richelle grabbed her iPhone from her bedside table and typed in her passcode 1919. The day of both of her parents birthday. Her mother- July nineteenth and her fathers.. November nighteenth. There were some days where she just wanted to lie in her bed, head in her pillow and cry. As for the other days she would just be anxious for her parents.

The blond hooked up her phone to her pink speaker and played her favourite song, her fathers actually. Although she was supposed to be asleep Noah didn't care as much as a big brother should. He mainly sent her to bed so he can get rid of her. Richelle just sighed. She had no idea at all where her parents were, but she was bringing it up so much..

Richelle made sure all the lights were off and then finally went to sleep. She was exhausted. The next morning Richelle woke up at 12 and Noah was furious at Richelle and he sure showed it. "Richelle!" He yelled. "You idiot! You're friends riley and that crew.. They've been looking for you all morning!" "Geez,.. I get it. I get it." Richelle said quietly.

The tiny little blond jumped out of bed and got on her phone for a bit before she got ready. She went on Instagram and , decided to post a picture of her at the zoo that she took a few weeks ago with her friends, captioning: " what's right, is painful." as soon as she posted, many people commented.

A lot of comments like that. Richelle stood up for another moment and got dressed in a hot pink crop top, and some gray, simple patterned leggings. She was set for the day. Richelle texted her group chat including; Riley, Giselle, Gabi, Beth & Piper. They were all best friends with many inside jokes that no one understands.

Richelle to dancerama's: hey guys! hang out today?

Beth was the first one to respond, as usual.

Beth: of course! how about we hang out at the beach, it's almost 34 out wow.

Riley: I know right?!

Richelle: lmao meet me at the beach, piper, gabi & giselle can catch up later.

Richelle laughed to herself and turned off her phone and ran downstairs quietly, trying to get past Noah without him noticing. Just when she reached the doorknob Noah had turned around. "Now where do you think you going?" Noah said calmly questioning Richelle. "Beach, is that all you need to know?" Richelle said rolling her eyes, she didn't have time for this. "When are you going to be back?" Noah asked fiddling with a dish cloth in his hand. "About 4 or so. Are you done annoying me now?" Richelle asked still impatient. "Fine. Be back at 5:30 or earlier." He warned. But Richelle didn't hear him because she fled out the door.

Richelle jumped onto her bike not even bothering to put on her helmet. She rode on the the bike for a couple blocks stopping at piper's house knowing, that Giselle and Gabi were staying the night. Richelle knocked on the door and piper's mom answered the door. "Richelle! What a lovely surprise, come on in!" Piper's mother, Angela said.

Angela was always so welcoming and kind to her, almost like she was Richelle's mother. "Thanks Angela." She replied stepping in. "I'll go get piper," Angela said yelling to piper. Soon enough she came scambling down the stairs and then stopped when she saw Richelle. "R!" She squealed happily. At moments like these, Richelle adored her life...

Noah paced back and fourth on the kitchen floor. Of course he'd missed his parents, he had always cared about them. He was only trying to look out for his little sister, sometimes she overreacts a lot and takes it too far in Noah's opinion. They used to be so close.. before the 'incident' Noah missed her a lot it was like they were twins. Even though there was a 3 year age difference between them.

Richelle had a blast at the beach.. Not to mention that cute Max boy she met. "aw you two are perfect for each other!" Gabi said giggling. "well.. I may or may not have gotten his number." Richelle blushed, going on her phone and showing them a little chat that they had. "oooh! Richelly's got a crush!" Beth teased.

"Maybe." Richelle stated. By now all the girls were back at piper's house, just hanging out. "Anyone up for a game of truth or dare?" Riley said mysteriously. "YES!" All the girls, (including richelle) yelled. No one could pass up a fun game of truth or dare. So fun.

"Giselle, I dare you to go up to a random stranger and hug them while saying 'we need to break up' . Beth said laughing. It was funny for all the girls. They were just laughing at how Giselle awkwardly hugged a stranger. It was only then when Richelle realized she should be home, it was almost 9 afterall. "Hey, um guys sorry but I have to go home, noah." She frowned.

Richelle's point of view:
I finally got home, now, Noah. "Noah," I said quietly while tapping on his shoulder. "R-richelle!" He exclaimed. I don't understand why he's so uptight! It's so annoying.. He's just weird like that. "You should've been back hours ago!" He screamed at me. I stepped back a bit and just looked down, he's never usually this bad.. "I can't even believe you right now." He said dramatically. I just bolted up the stairs, my eyes blurry. 'why does he hate me so much!' I yelled crying. 'why am I never good enough for him!' I yelled still crying, but I was almost laughing.. It's confusing. "I hate him!" I cry even more. I flop down on my bed and just cry my eyes out. Soon enough I calm down and I stare at the ceiling before going on my phone.
