The Life Of Mia Parker

Chapter 45

After three days of planning we were all packed up and ready to get on the plane to Los Angeles. We decided to go LA because Hayden suggested we all stay at his family villa. For the past three days I couldn't help but be excited for this trip, I mean it's LA. The City of Angels!

Once Nessa and I got through the security we headed towards the waiting area where we met up with Matty, Sophia and Dylan. Happy to see her boyfriend, Nessa fast walked towards him to greet him with a kiss. Me on the other hand couldn't help but worry about Nate coming or not. I tried calling him this morning but it kept going straight to voicemail so I gave up and decided to hope for the best.

Five minutes past by and I saw Hayden and Josh walk in hand in hand. Seconds later Noah joined them with a big grin on his face. He said something to them which made them burst out laughing. As the boys walked closer to us I finally got a glimpse of Nate, who was slowly walking behind them. He was on the phone and it looked important. Seeing him I immediately got up and smiled like a crazy fangirl.

"Woah girl calm down. I got him here but the rest is all you. Hayden looked a me worried before he sat down with the rest of the gang. I looked at him confused but was soon distracted when someone wrapped their arm loosely around my waist. I turned around to see Nate smiling down at me. Feeling happy to be close to him again I smiled back at him before standing on my tip toes to wrap both my arms around his neck to give him a tight hug.

"Hey munchkin." He whispered to me, sounding cheerful. Reassuring me that he is happy to see me as I am to see him since he looked exhausted, probably because he just finished working. I greeted him and said to him I missed him. He told me he missed me too before we both pulled away from eachother because it was time to get on the plane. It was 4pm when we settled on the plane. We chose that time so we could sleep on the plane and arrive in LA in the morning to start our trip.

On the plane there was a row of two seats on the right side and three seats on the left. So Josh and Hayden took the first two seats that were reserved for our group whilst Noah, Matty and Sophia took the three seats that was on the same row as them. Then Dylan and Nessa sat on the two seats behind Hayden, and Nate and I sat on the seats behind them.

Since I've only been on a plane twice with my family I felt pretty anxious for take off but knowing I'll be in LA soaking up the sun soon I was able to calm my nerves plus Nate got hold of my shaky hand and placed it on his lap.

When we were finally in the air and the light from the seat belt sign turned off, Nate got up and reached for his backpack from the overhead bin. He then sat back down and dug out a notebook. After putting his glasses on he then started flipping through it, trying to find a specific page. While he was doing that I watched him as I mentally crossed my fingers hoping that it had nothing to do with his dad's company. Unfortunately for me, he got out his phone and started typing something. He looked so absorbed in what he was doing I was too scared to say anything but before I could look away he looked up and locked eyes with me.

"You okay?" He asked me, looking concerned.

"Yeah. Er, what are you doing?" I pointed to the notebook with my eyes so he knew exactly what I was asking.

"Oh I need to send some instructions over to the employee who is taking over my job while I'm away." I nodded my head, telling him I understand. "Hey, don't worry. It's just this and then I'm all yours." He smiled at me before going back to his work. Satisfied with his answer I got hold of my pair of headphones and started watching a movie.

Thirteen hours later and we have arrived at LAX airport. The journey here was actually not bad. After watching two movies I fell sleep for the rest of the flight, occasionally waking up to look around because paranoid me needs to know whats happening.

When we all got off the plane and got settled into the airport we made our way to pick up our luggages. After successfully collecting our bags, which by the way took thirty minutes because one stupid bag decided to separate from the gang and then had the audacity to come out last.

At last we were out of the airport and getting into the ten seater mini van that Hayden ordered for us to use around LA. As we were making our way to the Sanders villa I used the time to take in the city. Starting with the weather, it was 8:30 and the sun was already beaming. Then there was the beach, it was peaceful and the waves were gently drenching the sand. The sea was calm and peaceful. Suddenly my view got blocked by Los Angeles iconic palm trees. The beautiful tropical trees towered over the little cute independent shops that were soon to be open.

Soon later the mini van came to a stop and everyone was getting out and grabbing their bags. Hayden having the keys, he led the way to the front entrance. Unlocking the door, we all entered the villa.

Woah! Gosh the villa looked amazing. The villa is accessed through a remote-controlled electric gates and was furnished with a piano and a flat panel TV. When you access the dining room you can see large windows which were overlooking the sea, and a fully equipped kitchen.

Outside there was a beautiful landscaped garden with multiple olive and palm trees that were sat on freshly cut grass. In the centre of the garden there was a huge pool, jacuzzi and a summer kitchen as well as a barbecue and ping pong table.

After looking around the house we all got settled into our rooms and started unpacking our suitcases. Since it's was ten in the morning and we were all quite tired from the journey, we decided to chill out in the garden and go out later in the day.

As I was leaving the ensuite bathroom I saw Nate sitting on a chair near the desk. "Hey how come haven't changed." I asked him wondering if he was coming out or not.

"Oh I just have to make a quick phone call to the new guy to make sure he doesn't mess up." He said as he scrolled through the contacts on his phone.

After hearing he was busy for like the hundredth time I decided to leave him to it. If he wants to come down and hang out with us, he would. Heading outside I saw all the boys in the pool while Nessa and Sophia sat on the chairs, sunbathing. Feeling exhausted I decided to catch some sun with them.
