Chapter 2
Maddies POV

----8:36a.m.----

Have I ever mentioned that I hate being in small spaces? Well I do, let alone being shoved in a car with your six brothers to drop you off half way across the country for school. "They want to be there when you take this important step in your life" my mom says, but I feel it's because my , also know as dad, can't sleep when there is to much noise. Thanks Brothers!

I don't think you have formally meet them yet have you? Well lets see Mason ( Jock and doesn't really care about anything unless it has to do with sleeping and slutty girls) is 17, my twin also known as Owen ( Thinks he's a jock. He's not a jock.) is 14, Ryan (Super smart and sciency and stuff) is 12, Henry ( Quiet and shy. Most likely to be found reading. Did I mention he's my favorite? ) is 8, Nathan and Calum are twins and will be turning 5 soon. Yay family! Anyway on with the story.

"Are we there yet?" Nathan screams

"For the 50th time,NO!" My dad is loosing patience fast. We've only been on the road for about 2 hours and everyone is already getting tired of each other. "Only 11 more hours to go!"

13 hours, 1 car, 9 people, I can't imagine how this could go wrong! We have to drive from Ness City Kansas to FreePort Texas were the school boat is docked. Then I get to meet my friends and set sail!

----12:48a.m.----

We finally make it to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma! Time to finally use these beautiful things God gave me. What are they called? Oh right, LEGS! We also brought two coolers full of food. We would have had three but we left all the capri sun at home! Whose stupid idea was that!

Around 2 or so Mandy I my phone starts blasting waking up pretty much everyone. "Sorry" I whisper.

Owen looks up "Who is it?"

I glare at him "Its the tooth fairy dip shit, who do you think it is?"

His eyes perk up and he snatches the phone from my ear. " Well hellllo, this is your boy O to the W to the E to the N! My number is ....."

I yank the phone away from him "Could you go be an annoying little sister somewhere else?" I ask

"I don't know how much more I can take of this! Say into the phone.

"That bad, huh?" She asks

"Well Im trapped between Mr. Loverboy here who is blasting annoying rap crap and Calum Hood.01 who is vomiting up a storm!" I say giving Calum a bottle water.

"Sounds like casual family bonding time!" She laughs "What time are you planning on getting here?"

"Your there already?" I jump out of my seat. Are we running that far behind?

"Almost, bout 10 minutes away. I am so excited!" She squeals.

"Haha Id say um like 7 or 8ish?" I ask. My dad nods. "Yup sounds about right!"

"Your gonna leave me alone all this time!" She complains.

"If I could jump into the phone and sit next to you I would, but i can't." I say

"Why not?" She asks.

"Bye Amanda!" I say "See ya later!"

She laughs "Fine byeeeeeeeeee"

I shut my phone and pack it away where it was before.

---7:37p.m.---

I awake my Owen slapping me in my face with my own hand. Before he can do it again I regain control of my hand and slap him back. "Your a bully" he says.

"Thank you. Ya know its nice to be appreciated, I really do try." I smile "Time?"

"We're here dip shi-------wonderful sister who I love!" My mom stares at him.

"Nice save" She says, then returns to her book.

We pull into the parking lot and find a close enough spot to park. Theres quite a few people unloading their bags. My dad goes to sign me in and get a luggage cart for my things. My mom and I grab all my bags and place them onto the metal cart. "MADDIE" someone shouts behind me. Its Kay.

"KAY!" I run up and give her a bug hug. "I can't believe this is really happening!"

"I know it's like some weird Suit Life of Zach and Cody Voodoo crap." She says checking her phone.

"Who you texting?" I ask raising my eyebrows.

"Luke"

"Ohhhhhhhhhhh"

"Shut the front door Maddie." She rolls her eyes and checks her phone again.

"Yay Maddie, stop getting all up in her business." Amanda sneaks up behind me.

"Ahhh Mandy!" I scream and hug her.

"Ahh Maddie!" She yells back "Honestly this is weird, we like never hug..."

"Agreed." I say "Has anyone heard from Mary?"

"Shes running late." Kay says "Typical Mary, She'll be here in like an hour or so."

"I hate to break this up but we need to leave." Mason says.

"Ok i'll see ya, take care. Oh and now that i'm not gonna be around, its your job to annoy Owen ok? "

"It would be my honor!" He salutes and gets back into the car.

I say my goodbyes to the rest of the siblings and then I get to my parents. "We'll miss you so much honey." my gives me a big hug and I can tell she's fighting off tears.

"Mom i'll be ok, and i promise to call as often as I can, Ok? I say "Whenever you wanna talk, just call."

My dad and also say our goodbyes and they all hop into the car. "Owen Amanda says she'll
Go out with you!" I yell as they pull away.

I hear him shout "Stop the car!" He rolls down the window closest to him and asks "Really?"

"Hell to the no!" I yell back "Your to easy."

He squints at me and then the car starts to move again.

"No boys!" My dad yells!
