The Rebel Meets The Badass

Chapter 2

"V we landed get up!" I heard my little brother, Tyler, yelling at me. "Huh? What?" I mumbled still sleepy. "The plane landed and we need to get off now." my older brother, Brandon, said to me chuckling a bit. I got up and got my carry on from the compartment above then got off the plane with my brothers. We met our parents at the baggage claim and they handed us all our stuff. We followed them to a guy who was holding a sign that said 'Grey' on it. Guessing my parents already hired our driver, why am I not surprised? We then followed him to the car and were on our way to our new house.

After a long hour drive of Tyler complaining and annoying the crap out of me, we finally pulled up to the house. House isn't even the right word, it's more like a mansion. There were four floors to the whole house and a balcony leading out of one of the top rooms. "I call choosing my room first!" I yelled sprinting inside. I ran up the stairs with one of my smaller bags until I was on the fourth floor. All the bedrooms were here and I looked in each one scanning to see which one was the biggest. Luckily, the one with the balcony was the biggest room. I ran inside and plopped down onto the bed. After a couple minutes of just laying there, i decided to look around. The bed was bigger than a regular king size so I guess it was one of those fancy expensive ones. There was a door leading to a master bathroom which consisted of a toilet, a huge ass shower that looked like you could have a party in it, a double sink, and a huge storage space for towels, shampoo, etc... Then I went back into my room so I could check everything else out. There was a huge flat screen TV on the wall in front of my bed. I noticed things in the ceiling that looked like speakers. My dad came up and told me that he knew I'd pick this room because it's the biggest and he had speakers installed into the ceiling with a Bluetooth connection. All I had to do was turn on the setting on my phone and I was connected. Awesome! I then saw another door and opened it. I was thrilled that it was a huge walk in closet. There was another door in that and it led to another one! How amazing is that! Trust me, I'll need it. I have tons of clothes. Lastly, there was an amazing balcony looking out over the road. It was really amazing. I finished my room tour and went back downstairs to get all my stuff.

I had just finished putting all the stuff in my room and decided to give myself a tour. I started on the first floor. That had a big living room with a giant flat screen TV, huge and extremely comfy couch, a coffee table in front of the couch, surround sound for the TV, and then separate speakers that looked like you could hear the music blaring out of them all the way from Jersey. I went into the kitchen next and was amazed by how big it was. It had a giant fridge, dish washer, stove, microwave, microwave oven, a big ass island, and a tremendous amount of counter space. There was a double sink and the cabinets were so big and fancy. I loved it so much in this house already and I haven't even seen it all. There was another master bathroom just like the one in my room, except this one didn't have a shower in it.

I made my way up to the second floor and my jaw hit the floor when I opened the first door. It was a home theater and it was humongous! The seats were so comfy and so fluffy. Much better than the ones at the movies. I went into the other door on that floor only to discover an indoor pool. Can this place get any better?! The only other thing on this floor was a bathroom just like the one on the first floor.

The third floor was definitely my favorite. I went into the nearest door to the stairs only to see that it was a gaming room! When i asked if this place could get any better, I didn't think it could. There was a ps4, Xbox one, and a Wii for the gaming systems with tons of games to go with them. Once again, there was a huge flat screen tv to play them on. The seating had one couch and a bunch of huge bean bag chairs. I think I'm in love. I checked out another room and it was another game room, but not a video game one. It had a foosball table, an AC/DC pinball machine, an air hockey table, and a dance dance revolution machine like you see in arcades. In the next room I went in, also the last one on that floor, I walked in and gasped. I'm pretty sure my jaw hit the floor because of how amazed I was. It was a person recording studio. This is by far my favorite room in this entire house. There was a drum kit, a whole bunch of electric and acoustic guitars, a keyboard, and some different basses throughout the room. There was the booth inside and everything. All along the walls were old vintage records and posters of all my favorite bands. Blink-182, Green Day, Pierce The Veil, Bring Me The Horizon, Bless The Fall, Fall Out Boy, Of Mice & Men, and so many others. There was a little card on the mic inside the booth so I decided to read it. It said:

V, I know you've been wanting one of these your entire life so it's all yours. Not mine, not your mother's, not Brandon's, and not Tyler's. All yours. I know how to work with all the effects so if you ever want to record or learn how to use the tools to edit the sounds you can ask me and I'll help you out. I'm pretty experienced being that I did work for a recording studio for ten years. I hope you like it, sweetie. Love, dad.

My dad did this? Are you kidding me? Never in a million years would I ever think he'd do something like this. Words cannot explain how thrilled I am right now. All mine. Not my brothers' or anyone else's. Just mine. I love it so much.

I continued onto the fourth floor which just had the bedrooms and two more master bathrooms just like my own. Except they were in the hall. There were enough bedrooms for me, Brandon, Tyler, and my parents, with four extra. Eight bedrooms and four for guests. Woah.

By the time I was done looking at everything it was already 9 pm so I decided to unpack and organize my room. I had just finished putting up the last of my posters which was a Nirvana one and looked at the clock. "Midnight already? Damn three hours goes by quick." I said to myself. "Vi its midnight. Get to sleep so you can take a look around the town tomorrow." my mom said peeking her head into my room. "Alright mom night." "Night sweetie, love you." she said. I froze when she said that, I can't even remember the last time she said she loved me. I just stayed silent with my back to her before I heard her sigh and shut my door, signaling she left. I got into my pajamas and took my makeup off then got into bed. As soon as my head hit the pillows, I was fast asleep.
