Chapter 8

Brrrrh Brrrrrh Brrrrrh 

I groggily got up out of bed. When I opened my eyes I was confused for a moment until I remembered where I was. I ran to my phone. I looked to see who it was.

' Of course.' I though to myself.

" Dude! Don't call me until after 10 I'm on vacation!" I yelled best I could.

" You do realize it's 10." Josh said. I could practically hear his grin.

" OH NO!" I was running crazy late.

" What?" Josh asked.

" I only have 30 minutes to get ready!" I said running downstairs with my clothes in hand.

" That's plenty of time." But I have to straiten my hair. I have to call you back" I hung up the phone and put it on my aunts table. I ran to her bathroom and quickly changed. She handed me a waffle and I chugged it down while brushing my hair. I brushed my teeth and put on my jewelry at the same time. I ran upstairs and grabbed my boots and flat iron. My hair isn't crazy curly but wavy and VERY poofy. 

     I checked the time. 25 minutes till my parents arrived. Plenty of time. Iris popped her head in. 

" You need help?" she asked.

" Definitely." I handed her the iron and sat down. She had already fixed her jet black hair up in a pretty braid. She usually never did anything to her hair, but we were having an "open house", going to see family and then my aunt Linda ( The one we're staying with) was taking us shopping for a Christmas outfit. 

" Why didn't you wake me?" I asked giving her a dirty look.

" To be honest, I thought you where already up." She shrugged and went on to another section of my hair. 

Her brother Matthew called out " Your mom just texted Cari. She's going to be a little late. My dad got lost." He didn't like to use the GPS. 

" Okay! Thanks." I slowly stood up and fixed myself up a little. Iris finished my hair and we got out. 

" Hi Cari!" Gabby ran up and gave me a hug.

" Hey Gabby. Where's Nick?" I asked. 

" Watching tv." She replied pointing to the TV room.

     I went in and gave him a hug. I went upstairs and grabbed my favorite orange flower for my hair. I clipped it in and adjusted my bright orange tee. My mom got it for me because she thought I needed more color in my wardrobe. Don't get me wrong, I love the shirt. I have a strange style. It's like a combination of tom-boy and girly with a somewhat colorless color scheme. I did have colors like purple, blue and on occasion orange but the purple is dark, the blue very greyish, and the orange very dull. My usual colors are grey, white, and black. I do make sure to add a little color to every outfit. Well enough about my style.

     I went back downstairs and grabbed my phone from Matthew. I went outside with Iris. She grabbed the phone and called Josh. 

" Hi Josh. It's Iris... Just wanted to say hi... Ok." she handed the phone to me. 

" Hello?" I said/ asked

" Hey Cari. You ready now?" 

" Yeparoony." I said

" Good. So what's on today's agenda?" 

" We are going to see family today." 

" Very nice. I hope you have fun." 

" I'm not done yet." I said grumpily. " But first my aunts having an ' open house' where anyone who wants to come can drop by and see us." 

" Well why would you need to go see family then?" he asked
