       I woke up to the devil screaming at me. My alarm flashing 9:30. I pushed the boys off me and woke them up. I was really excited I would meet Chase's family, and Chase moving in with us. After atleast an hour of getting ready and eating breakfast, we were all ready to go.
  Since I live in Arizona this would be a 12 to 13 hour drive. Chase lives in California. We decided to drive so we could see the views and not be stuck in the air for a couple hours and spent so much money on tickets. We had just left our house and thanks to me for signing us up for homeschooling we could work on the drive.
    Payton thought it was too quiet in the car so he connect to the aux and we jammed out to music for a good 2 hours. "Payt I'm hungry!" I complained. (I was behind the drivers seat , Chase in the middle, Dylan behind shotgun, Payton in shotgun and Jackson driving.) Payton paused his music looked back at me and said "Hi hungry, I'm Payton. Nice to meet you!" I rolled my eyes at his joke.
"Jackson! Get us food!" I complained even more. " OOH! Next exit is Wendys and McDonald's! Go on the next exit!" Everyone just laughed at me.
  "Its not funny guys, I'm starved and stuck in a car with four guys the least you could do is feed me!" I say.
"Oh four guys, huh? Just four guys?" Dylan says playfully.
   "Yeah you could have stayed home and not come with us to Cali." Jackson replies to me.
   "I'm just hungry! I need food to survive!" I yell at Jackson.
Jackson finally takes us to get food. We all eat for about an hour. We ordered alot. I guess I wasn't the only one hungry.
    After hours go by of us sleeping taking breaks, getting food and walking around, we arrive in California but still have 1 hour to go. We will be arrive around 8:45 pm. I  switched spots with Jackson so he could take a break.
***time skip***
    We finally arrived at Chase's house. We were all tired and hungry and a little bit crabby. Chase's kind mother made dinner and led us to the 2 spare rooms. Chase had his own room, Payton and I shared a room and Dylan and Jackson shared the other spared room.  We all eat and go to bed.

** the next morning**
    I wake up all alone in the room, forgetting where I am for a minute. I get up and get dressed into this....

    I call Chase to help me through his house because I have no idea where I'm going. He comes to the room laughing. " Chase it's not funny. I don't know where I'm going!" I say a little shy.
    "Okay, okay! How'd you sleep?" He asked. "Like a little baby" I say smiling. He laughs again and brings me to the living room. He introduces me to his family. Chase told his parents and sisters about him moving in with us. His parents supported him but were sad he were to be leaving. We decided to stay for a couple weeks.
    Chase want to take us around California. We started at the tiktok building. As he was showing us around there was a family passing by. Two brunette girls who had looked like twins but different ages with what had looked like their parents. Chase gathered us in a circle forgetting I liked him said " bro that girl was fire. Mhm! I need to get her number. " Dylan and Jackson hyped him up and went with him after the family to the girl.
    A little hurt I sat down on the bench next to me. Payton sat next to me. Trying to comfort me. He knew I liked Chase. After 5-10 minutes the boys came back. Chase was smiling ear to ear. I asked Chase what the girl's name. Still smiling and blushing hard core he said " Charli. The other one's name was.... Dixie? Yeah Dixie."
I smiled and told the boys I was going to get some air.
     I got outside the doors and waited on the bench. I scrolled threw Tiktok and saw the girl we had just seen. I looked at her profile. 'charlidamelio'. She is really good at dancing. I saw a tiktok with the other girl she was with.
