After that long and tiring journey we finally got there but we had one problem.
I found a car park and parked. "Please don't tell me were lost" Katie was saying to me "no of course were not lost" I was lost. I picked my phone up and text my mum.
Lola: Could you give me the address for our house.
Mum: Ohh I forgot all about that here; 97 Seedle Drive
Lola: Thanks
I got my hi-tech sat nav up and running and entered the address "97 Seedle Drive
enter" thinking out loud. I saw Katie from the corner of my eye looking at me. "Could you not look at me" "sorry, I knew we were lost" "we're not lost mum just didn't give the address of the house" "ohh so were here" she looked outside, I saw a smile on her face, I looked out the window she was looking through. Outside was a beautiful water fountain with lights all around and red roses too. "It's stunning" she said "I know", " Lola, do you think we will fit in?" I looked at her and smiled "even if we don't we have each other, but I think if people don't like us there missing out" she laughs a little. "Right lets get going" I said, it was getting dark and I wanted to get in so I had time to unpack and go for a walk to get to know the place. I started the engine and drove off looking through the front window and seeing stunning views and pretty flowers, it was definitely greater than New York. There was too many tall buildings, too many people, you had to que for everything.
When we finally got there I parked half on half off the curb I looked across at and found Katie sleeping with my good jumper as a pillow. I shook her knee and said "Katie were here get up" she softly opened her eyes and turned her head but the rest of her body was still, "come on you need to unpack everything" "okay okay I'm coming" she stretched then looked out the window, I opened the door slowly trying to do one off those dramatic walking out the door entrances. I felt the heat of my lightly tanned skin I began to sweat, I saw Taylor across at mums car taking his bags into the house "I thought I had a lot of bags" I said with a little giggle. The thing about my brother is ever since dad died he has never really had a big conversation with anyone, my mum and I have tried to talk to him but it's as if he's saying it's our fault. The only person he really talks to is Katie and his gerbils.
I was waiting on a reply but he just picked up two bags that looked very heavy and walked into the house. I watched him walk away then looked up to the house "wow" I thought out loud. This house had two driveways with two garage doors attached on to it, a front garden with a beautiful miniature tree with pretty pink blossoms all over the branches. I saw a path leading to the back garden as I followed it I came across a tall gate with a hole for a handle I pushed the gate only so I could fit my head through it, the first thing I saw was small birds all in this bird bath it wasn't then that I started walking taking in everything that I saw even though it was my house now I saw a big oak tree right in the corner of the garden with a rope and a tire attached to it. There was everything a small decking with wooden deck stairs. I walked up the stairs to the decking and leaned on the fence I was looking all around but there was one thing I missed.
"A hot tub" I shouted very loud I ran over and put my hand in "oh my god it's so warm" I took my shoes off I never wear socks because my feet get really sweetly if I do, good thing I was wearing shorts I put my feet into it standing on the bit you are meant to sit on. I probably looked like a child but I think everyone would react like this, I picked up my shoes and stepped out of the "hot tub" I ran to the car even though my feet were soaking and opened to boot of the car I got as many bags as I could and ran into the house I didn't take in much of the inside but I found stairs and ran up them I opened the first bedroom door "can I help you" says Taylor, he was putting posters up on his walls "oops sorry guessing this rooms occupied" "well done for pointing out the obvious".
I left without saying anything then I opened the door to another room "guessing this is mums"I thought
I'm guessing Katie's still in the car because the next 3 rooms where empty I picked mines, it had a walk in wardrobe with a mirror on it and lights shining down on the mirror and to my left there were hangers for clothes and to my right there were small drawers for shoes. There was a big double bed right in the middle of the room it didn't have any sheets on it so that was the first thing I done, I found a dressing table against the wall with two drawers built into it so I put my make up and hair equipment in it then I got into my wardrobe and filled it up with my stuff.
I then looked into my mums room, she had a massive kings sized bed, and a walk in wardrobe it wasn't as big as mine though. I knocked on the door to my brothers room.
"Get out!" He shouted before I could lay eyes on anything in it.
I then walked into the other two rooms that were not taken, one of them had a wardrobe filled that filled on of the walls with mirrors on them, then another bed, it had a white dressing table against the opposite wall of the wardrobes.
The other room wasn't a bedroom, although I though it was. It was filled up with cupboards and drawers, with mirrors everywhere you looked.
'This is mine' I thought.
I heard my mum come in the front door, I rushed down stairs and hugged her then went to tour more of the house downstairs. The living room had 3 modern black leather sofas, with a massive plasma tv hanging on the wall, and a glass coffee table in the middle, with a pink tulip on it.
The living room opened up into the dining room, witch had a big light wood table, with modern light wood chairs, and a painting of the sunset hanged up on the wall.
The living room opened up to the kitchen which was the biggest room, it was so hard to describe, put it this way it was big.
I wanted Katie to see the house so bad so when I went outside to go get her she wasn't in the car, I walked through the on the back garden and scanned, but she wasn't there either. She wasn't in the house because I was just in it two seconds ago, she was no where to be seen.
