Perfection and Expectations

Chapter 2: starting the journey.

 I opened the door and got my suitcase in the house, took off my coat ans shoes not bothering putting them in their places "Mercy!" I scream to my little sister, I expected she would come running the second I open the door like always. She didn't show up, so I went upstairs to see what was Tweety doing. I knock on her room's door before opening to find the cutie sleeping in her bed with a book in her hand. 

 As I finished unpacking my suitcase I headed downstairs to have a glass of water when my  phone rang, I answered and it was Sarah cheking on me and when I told her that I met Alex at the airport she told me that she knew and was planning on telling me before I got sick. I finish the call and go back to my room and sleep alone because aparently Lexi missed Mercy so much that she laied on top of her not willing to leave her by her own. 

 I woke up to a scraeming sound and a huge weight falling on me suddenly, and to my shock I woke up screaming "what happened?!" to found Mercy on me with her arms wrapped around my waist with a huge smile on her face, "I missed  you!" she said purring like a cat nuzzling further into me like it was humanly possible, "me too" I said and she looked up at me "how long are you going to stay?" "just one week" the smile in her face is no where to be found now "oh! come on! now! don't go all upset?! you will have the house for you for three months! and Lexi will stay here with you, you can call your friends to come stay with you? the GIRLS of course"she gives me a weak smile then releases me and stands on her feet calling the enthusiasm back and gives me another one of her wide smiles and says "well, lets spend this week together, we won't just stay in bed, are we?" "no".

 She sat on the kitchen's counter stealing from the starwberies I was going to use when preapering breakfast, while I was making pancakes. "Stop you little theif and give Lexi her breakfast"she jumps to do the task and stops mid way looking at me "you do realize that I am a college student at Cambridge? and that I study medecin?" I nod at each question "than stop calling me little" she jokes. The reason I keep calling her little is the way she looks, she looks riducoulesly  young as if she is still 16 years old, plus she acts like it, she steals food, loves to hug and kiss me, watches cartoons and kids absolutly adore her. 

 The week passed so fast and honestly, I felt bad for leaving. After they called for the flight I gave my parents and Mercy a last hug and walked away having trouble walking because of the heavy back bag I was holding, I laughed when I remembered that when I arrive I will have to drag with me to huge black suitcase that had what I needed for three months, I hope so? 

I didn't sleep during the flight knowing that when I arrive it will be already night at New York. 

 Struggling with all of my luggage I was greeted by paparazzis and fans, and a squick and a kid running toward me, it was Augustus, he held me so tight that if he wasn't only six years old I wouldn't be able to breath, his parents walk toward us eachone of them giving me a hug. Luke helped by taking the two suitcase as JayJay held tight into me telling me about his new friend.

 Sarah opens the front door of her house and whispers"welcom!" making sure not to wake little JayJay that was sleeping with his arms around my neck. I put him in his bed and take off his little shoes and walke downstairs, I found Sarah putting the table for a really late dinner "is ther anything I can help with?" I ask, she shakes her head and tells me to just sit, Luke comes to the kitchen "your stuff is in the guests room" "thank you". The dinner was surprisingly delecious that I am sure it wasn't made by  Sarah , she could be anything but a good cook?! never! "you didn't make this" I smile at my friand waiting for the confession,"ok...Luke made it" I turn to look at him surpised by his cooking skills, he laughs at my reaction "what? you don't think I am capable of competing with you?!" he asks enjoying himself. I was the best cook in our squad and I will always be. "Oh! dear you are far from that" I replied, "I was worried that you are not ok, you didn't get into a fight with me since you came, but I was wrong!" he says, "like always" I replied sarcastically. Me and Luke had a brother and sisster's relationship, we always fighted on the slighest things and tried to find new ways to annoy eachother with since we met, and it has been always fun. I always have been the older one, the one that took care of everyone. We helped eachother all the time, but it was also comforting to know that I had a big brother to lay on his shoulder. And he owes me for life, I am the one that introduced him to Sarah and matched between them and I was the braid's maid in their wedding.
