Alone (An Adnan Januzaj fan fiction)

Chapter 9

I'll explain the weekend. I passed my driving test! Now I'm allowed to be driving around on my own. I managed to get to the game which we won again with one of the goals being scored by Adnan. Then sunday we just stayed in while I did my work. 

Now it's Monday and me and Adnan are driving down to Derby for a few days before my birthday. We can't stay too long because Adnan has a match but I have the week off with it being half term. 

I wasn't driving because apparantly I needed to practise. Cheeky guy. I turned the radio up and started singing along to my One Direction cd. 

"I don't like One Direction." Adnan moaned turning the radio down.

"You're just jealous because they're better looking than you." I put my tongue out at him. 

"Please I'm one sexy mofo." 

We arrived at the hotel and quickly put our bags in the room. It was so big and beautiful as Adnan paid for the best suite in the hotel. Derby doesn't exactly have a savoy. We got back in the car and went straight to my parents. 

"Jenny! Adnan!" My mother cheered as she opened the door. My dad shook Adnan's hand and gave me a hug. 

They lived in a small house so me and Adnan couldn't stay there while my sister and her boyfriend were there. They lived with Mr Jones our tabby cat. He's really old now.

"Jenny!" I heard someone shout from upstairs and I grinned when I saw who it was. My sister Emily was here! She was 20 and ginger. Now I had dark brown har like my dad with tanned skin and Emily and mum had ginger hair and pale skin. 

Emily was engaged to her long-term boyfriend Joe who was quite arrogant but we got along most of the time. I'm suprised Adnan didn't go for Ems since she was his age but she had go who is 21.

I got tackled into a hug and giggled happily from seeing my sister. I didn't see her very often so it was nice. 

"Hi Adnan." She hugged him too, he looked a bit taken aback. 

"Hey Joe," I said to the brown haired boy walking down the stairs. He liked games and was quite mean sometimes. 

"Hey Jen." He replied going to the kitchen.

Ems followed him as me and Adnan went into the living room. 

"It's so good to see my 2 babies again!" Mum was really happy. "I can't  believe you're turning 18 soon!" 

"Neither can I." I was overwhelmed. 

"Remember we're at your grandad's house today." Dad reminded us. 

The afternoon passed quickly reminising on the past and finding out all about what's happening in everyone's life. Me and Adnan went back to the hotel room to get ready for the evening. 

"We don't have to stay long." I told him as I got changed.

"I like your family." He smiled.

"You haven't met this lot yet." I scoffed."Are you coming to the Derby game tomorrow?"

"Yeah go on then." 

The drive to my grandparents was the chance to brief Adnan on the family he hadn't met.

"So we have my grandparents. If you impress my grandmother you're a saint but grandad will like you either way. Then we have Vicki, Steve and Freya. Vicki won't talk much, Steve will proably talk to you non-stop about football and Freya's only 5 so she'll want to play. We have my uncle and aunty who will make polite converation so don't worry about them." I stopped to breathe."We also have Derek who's wife died a few years ago but he thinks he is the best person in the world so he might not like you because you've achieved more than him. Then we have Toni, Lee, Winter and Summer. Toni won't control her kid so don't except anything from her. Lee is obsessed with his car and every other car, he'll probably want a look at yours. Winter is 12 and Summer is 9. Winter is spoilt and will probably hit on you while Summer follows everything Winter does." I took a deep breath which made Adnan laugh.
