Two an a Half States

Chapter 6

Allie's POV

The last day in Oregon we spent goofing off at the local mall and the park near by. We tried on dresses at the mall in a store called DEB and pretended we were at a fashion shoot, strutting down the changing roll hallway and posing for the camera, as in our phone. We did buy a few things, nothing much real expensive just a shirt we liked and maybe a new phone case or earrings. At the park we got our inner kid on, swinging on the swings and running around on the play house, doing the monkey bars and sliding down the slides. A few people gave us stares, but we didn't mind. We weren't going to see these people again so why worry about what they think?

After we were done with our goofing around, we headed for our trip to L.A. We already cleared out our hotel room and were set to go.

We took turns alternating who was driving on our fifth-teen hour drive. We thought we had enough music to last us a life time, but of course it seemed like we listened to the same album over and over.

"What if we just stayed in Los Angeles?" Emily blurted out as she turned down the music. We were speeding down the highway, zipping past cars trying to find a rest stop to switch out who was driving since our two hours have passed.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"I mean, we stay at my Aunts for awhile and then find our own apartment before school starts." I saw a rest stop up a head, zipping quickly to it, pulling into the parking lot and parked the car. I turned towards Emily with a small smile on my face.

"I like the idea, but what about visiting all the states?"

"We both know we would have never finished the trip," she gave a short laugh. "Plus hey, L.A, cute boys, we could actually date them." I laughed myself.

"Yeah, if they even notice us." I joked.

"Wear that neon shirt and shorts you have and they'll see us a mile away!" I shook my head and exited the car and got into the passenger side. Since Emily has been down this way before with her family I didn't need to direct her. I leaned back in the chair as she took off, back on our adventure, closing my eyes to take a nap before it was my turn again.

Fifth-Teen hours later of switching out drivers, taking naps, and driving at night, we finally made it to Emily's aunts house. She was already expecting us so she was up herself and sitting out on the porch. We were whipped and exhausted as we exited the van.

Emily ran over to her aunt giving her a giant hug as I joined beside them.

"Aunt Marie, this is Allie, Allie this is Aunt Marie." Emily smiled as Aunt Marie pulled me into a hug. Emily's family was really friendly, if you were friends with one of the members, there were no shaking hands it was a full on hug.

"Nice to meet you Allie!" She said as I hugged her back.

"Nice to meet you too!" I said with a smile.

"You girls are bound to be whipped!" She said, opening the door inviting us in.

"You have no idea," Emily laughed.

"Well I made you guys a tray of snacks and you can sleep in Kate and Ashley's room," Emily and I both ran over to the tray of food. We probably looked like we haven't ate in seven years but it was late and when it's late we get hungry.

As soon as we finished eating, we headed to the bed room of the twin sisters, hitting the bed we passed out. Not even changing our clothes into something more comfortable.

Emily's POV

"WAKE UP!" I yelled as I jumped onto the bed Allie was sleeping in, pushing her off it. She screamed as I watched her scramble through the blankets to get out of the trap she was in.

"What was that for!" She yelled, grabbing the blankets from off the ground and jumping back onto the bed.

"For jumping on me back in Vancouver," She pulled the blanket back over her head, letting out a sigh.

"Please just let me sleep, you elbowing my eye is starting to affect me,"

"Yeah, your eye didn't look so pretty," She kicked me with her leg trying to push me off the bed.

"Shut up."

"Aw I'm sorry love bug, can I get you anything baby?" I laughed, hugging her through the blanket.

"Leaveeeee." She whined. I got up to get dressed, searching through my bag that my aunt brought in for us last night, pulling out some high waisted shorts and a nice shirt without sleeves.

"Fine, but I'll be back around three and you better be up." I left the room to change, laughing as I left. My aunt was out at work and wouldn't be back until five which gave us time to get around. God I've missed L.A and it's wonders.

After changing I headed out into the world. Luckily she didn't live but a few blocks away from town so I could just walk there.

As I was walking I could hear screams from up ahead and girls running in the direction. I didn't think much of it, it was probably some celebrity from a popular show. I wasn't going to break my legs to get there so I just walked, watching the teenage girls my age and younger run passed me in their flower crowns and cute outfits.

As I approached the mob I realized it was in front of the hotel my aunt worked at. Many girls were crowding the entrance to the building that was marked off by two men blocking the door way. I squeezed my way through to the front where I was pushed back by one of the guys.

"Sorry, no entering." He said in an annoyed tone.

"Um my aunt works here, I should be allowed in." I said in an annoyed tone back. I wasn't going to let him push me around.

"Name?"

"Marie Yoder." The pushed me behind them, letting me enter the building. I turned around and looked to see the girls with confused looks and anger faces. I shrugged and looked around for my aunt, finding her at the front counter. I skipped over to her with a huge smile on my face.

"Hello Auntie Marie!" I leaned against the counter, facing her.

"Hey Emily! What a suprise," She gave me a smile before looking down at the guest book.

"What's up with all the teenage girls?" I asked.

"Some boyband is back in town, but they aren't here we've told them a million times," My eyes widened and my smile grew.

"What boy band?"

"Assemble3? I can't remember." I screamed and ran around the room, full of excitement.

"No way no way! Emblem3 is back in town?" I was jumping up and down with excitement.

"Yes them!" She said, looking at me in a strange way.

"I have to go get Allie, I'll be back!" I squealed and ran out of the building, not stopping a single moment.
