Our Story (Jacob Sartorius)

Reston, Virginia

     Lilly's POV:
I wake up to someone shaking me "Lilly get the hell up" John tells me. I open my eyes and let them adjust. I see people standing up and exiting the plane. I stand up also and stretch my body "damn these seats are comfortable" I say. I grab my phone and my backpack and start exiting the plane also.

As I get off the plane I see my mom and dad standing by the baggage claim. Me and John walk over to them and wait for our bags also. After a few minutes we see our bags and grab them. We walk outside and dad hauls a taxi for us.

We put our luggage in the trunk and pile in. I sat upfront with the driver and mom, dad, and John sat in the back. Dad told the driver our address and the driver took off.

I watched out the window as we pasted stuff. It's beautiful here in Virginia. The driver pulls up to our new "home" and we get out and grab our luggage. Mom tips the driver and he speeds off.

We walk up onto the porch and dad unlocks the house. I walk inside last and look around. I walk upstairs to try and find a room. As I walk down the hallway I see pieces of paper taped onto doors. I look at the papers at see that my name is on one of them.

I open the door with my name on it to find a room painted blue. I walk into the room and look around. The room is pretty big. I open a door to find a walk in closet 'AWESOME!' I think to myself. I open another door to find a my own bathroom. Its a pretty big bathroom if I do say so myself. On one of the walls there's a window about 4'6.

I walk downstairs and look around. To the left of the stairs is the kitchen, dining room, and back door. To the left of the stairs is the living room and the front door.

I walk outside to see the moving truck just pulling up. As it stops I walk towards it and wait for someone to open it. The driver gets out of the truck and opens up the door. I start grabbing a few of my boxes at a time as mom and dad grab the kitchen stuff. John grabs some of his boxes also.

I walk upstairs and into my room and set the boxes down. I go back down to the moving truck and grab more. I do this a few more times "ME AND DAD ARE BRINGING UP YOUR BED!" John yells from downstairs.

I quickly put all my boxes into the closet so they have room. They bring up the spring box "where do you want me to set it?" John asks "can you lay it down by the window? Kinda like in the corner but in the corner by the window?" I ask.

They lay it down where I told them then brought my actual bed up. They layed it on top of the box "thank you guys!" I say hugging them "no problem. Where gonna go grab your dresser." dad says as they walk out.

I take the box with my bed stuff out of the closet and start making my bed. My bed is a California king sized. As I start putting my pillows on it they bring my dresser in and set it in the other corner "thank you! I'll go and grab the drawers!" I say running out and grabbing my drawers.

I take two little ones and one big one at a time. I bring them upstairs and put them in the slots. After I finish that I start putting my clothes away.

As I finish my clothes I move onto everything else. I was in the middle of putting stuff away when I hear dad from downstairs "KIDS CAN YOU PLEASE COME DOWN!?" he yells "YA!" me and John yell back.

I walk out of my room and jog down the stairs "so me and your mother have some exciting news!" dads tells us a we both get down stairs "ya ok. What is it?" I ask. Mom and dad looked at each other then at as "were staying here! No more moving!" mom tells us.

My mood goes from 0 to 100 real quick "REALLY!? ARE YOU SERIOUS!? OH MY GOSH! THANK YOU SO MUCH!" I yell hugging the life out of both of my parents "we thought that y'all guys would need a normal lifestyle instead of moving all the time." mom said.
