"Are you joking with me?" My hands were shaking and I don't think I've smiled this big in my life.
"No, your father and I think you deserve it. You've done so well this year in school, even though you hate it. The only thing is, it's school over there now for them."
"Wait I have to go to school again?"
"Yeah, it's that or just stay here for your holiday."
"nO THANKS MUM BUT THANKYOU SO MUCH OF COURSE IM GONNA GO" I jumped on my giving her the biggest hug.
Ok so basically what happened is I've been wanting to go to america for aaagess. Florida to be exact because I have some friends over there that I've wanted to meet ever since they shipped me with ashton irwin, the hot ass drummer from 5sos. ((We're all huuuuuge fans))
It was a great start to the friendship.
Anyway I've been asking mum all year and she said if I got good grades the I could go?? and? I? got? good? grades??????
So apparently now I get to staY IN FLORIDA FOR A MONTH.
I gave mum one last kiss on the cheek and quickly ran to my room picking up my phone and tapping on the kik app.
's HanNON'
'yES MOLLY ???'
'IM COMING TO FLORIDA FOR A MONTH '
'wHat THE FRACK NO UR NOT'
I explained everything to Shannon and told her I leave in a week. I had to check 638248 times to see if she was still breathing.
I told her to tell Lyndsey ((another twitter friends that i met through Shannon)) aswell because I was about to fall asleep any minute.
Damn timezones.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I woke up to the sound of my phone buzzing. I picked it up from my side table squinting at the light. Of course, it was Shannon spamming me with pictures of ashton. I swear if he ever looks at my phone, it would be t h e most embarrassing thing ever.
After messaging Shannon for a bit, and also talking to Lyndsey myself about my stay in Florida, I quickly showered and decided I would go shopping for new clothes.
The day went fast and I snapchatted all my clothes to Shannon, receiving approval from her, the fashion queen.
Soon enough I was in bed again, crashing down on my pillow, dreaming about being away from home.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The whole week went really fast and it it mainly consisted of shopping sleeping and catching up with friends to say goodbye.
It soon came to the day before I left. I had packed all my stuff and charged all my electronics. Luckily I didn't have to wear a uniform over there like we do here in New Zealand. It's so laaame. I had talked to Shannon and Lyndsey about the school I was going to and they said that I would be fine. I was hoping it was the same school as them but I doubt it.
Once again I went to bed, but this time really early, knowing I had to get up at 5.00 in the morning.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*beep beep beep*
I slammed my hand down in the alarm and slumped out of bed.
I am nOT a morning person.
I brushed out my hair and decided on wearing denim shorts and a cream coloured sweater.
Mum was already downstairs making breakfast and dad was at the table drinking a coffee. Mum placed bacon and eggs infront of me and I dug in immediately. Once everyone was ready, we all got in the car, mum drove and dad sat in the passenger seat while I sat in the back with my bags..
We got to the airport and thankfully my parents had woken up more. We carried my bags out to the waiting area and sat there for about half an hour until my flight was boarding passengers. Dad was the first to stand up. We weren't really that close so it was a quick goodbye. Mum then walked over to me and pulled me into a huge bear hug.
"Ill miss you so much sweetie."
"I'll miss you too mum." I heard her sniffling.
"Aw mum don't cry" I said laughing slightly and looking up at her.
She wiped her tears away and I held mine back that were threatening to fall down my cheeks.
"Love you mum." I gave her one last hug before picking up my bags and heading to the boarding line. I wave goodbye one last time before finding my way onto the plane and into a seat. A middle aged woman sat beside me and she was really nice.
"So you're on your way to Florida?" She asked me.
" yeah I'm meeting some friends there." I replied with a smile.
We talked about alot of things and she was really lovely, which is lucky considering the last flight I went on I sat by my dad and all he talked about was cars and the book he was reading.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there seems to be a problem with the weather, we will be making a quick stop in Australia." The voice over spoke.
I wasn't sure whether to be upset or excited. Like I really wanted to just be with Florida and watch movies with Shannon and Lyndsey but also I've never been Australia and it seems so great. Except for the spiders everyone talks about like no thankyou.
I got off the plane and got told it would only take an hour to get going again. Because the flight before wasn't that packed, I'm guessing we will have more people board.
Ok well I'm kinda hungry so I head to the food court and look around to see which place I should go to. I spot a maccas (McDonald's sorry guys I'm kiwi) and head over. I look up at the menu but hear a loud laugh behind me. It sounded so familiar, I turned around.
"But his hair doesn't look like candy floss anymore Calum."
