Panic in My Heart

Chapter 4

After we had all ate breakfast, we sat at the kitchen table and planned out our day. The boys all wanted to take naps given that they had all eaten at least 3 biscuits by themselves. But me and Emmie convinced them that we should do something fun while they were in Atl. So, we asked them what they heard was fun to do while they were in Atl. They all agreed that the aquarium, the sky view, the zoo, and centennial park were the best places to go while in Atl. But, however none of them mentioned sixflags. So me and Emmie exchanged glances apparently both realizing, at the same time, that the boys have never heard of how fun sixflags was. I looked back at the boys and said, "have you guys ever been told that sixflags was an amazing place to go while in Georgia? Everyone loves sixflags!!" They all looked at me curiously.. Then finally Luke spoke up, "what is 'six flags'"he said making quotations with his fingers. I looked at him as if I was very disappointed and replied, "that's it. That's where we are going today. Boys find some shorts and tennis shoes, we're going to six flags!" The boys reluctantly stood up and walked to their bedrooms in search for shorts and shoes. Luckily I had kept a few pairs of shorts, a tshirt, and my chacos in my car. I knew that would come in handy one day I thought to myself. I told ash that I was going to run to my car and grab my clothes, but Ashton insisted that he should go with me to "keep me safe" even though I'd end up having to keep him safe from the fangirls. So, me and Ashton headed out to my Altima. When we got to my car I popped the trunk and started grabbing some shorts, my shoes, and the only tshirt I had. Ashton looked surprised at how many shorts I had in the back of my car. "Why exactly do you have so many pairs of shorts but like 1 shirt?" He asked me curiously. "Well," I began, "I had more tshirts in here, but I let my friends borrow them when they needed them so I ran out. Except for this one.." I said, "ironically I have one left for Emmie... But not me" I said laughing. "Well I'm sure I probably have a shirt you can borrow if you need it." Ashton said kindly. "Well I was planning on borrowing one of your shirts anyways.." I giggled a little under my breath. "Well then.." He said in a playfully dramatic tone as we turned back to go to the hotel room. As soon as we got to the room I have Emmie the shorts and tshirt.. Luckily it was Emmie who was with me rather than my friend Caylee, because me and Emmie wear the same size, but my clothes would fall off of Caylee, so my back up clothes don't work for her. Me and Emmie headed to our room within the penthouse and quickly changed into our clothes and threw our hair into messy buns. As soon as we got back to the living room, the boys were waiting for us on the couches. "Well," I said, "who's ready for. Six flags??" I said in an excited tone. All the boys groaned and followed me and Emmie to my car.. We all piled in illegally considering I only had 5 seats but there were 6 of us. But Emmie squeezed in the back with Calum, Michael, and Luke, while Ashton frantically ran for the front seat yelling "shotgun". I'm completely surrounded by idiots, I thought to myself. I quickly got in the drivers seat, started my car, and carefully began to leave the parking deck. "So, do you guys even know what six flags is?" I asked in a curious tone. "Not really... Not until you guys mentioned it.." Ashton answered. "Well it's an amusement park. It's mostly just roller coasters but there are some little things like bumper cars and a carousel. Just for kids and stuff. But mostly roller coasters." I said repeating the roller coasters part to annoy Emmie. (She hates when I repeat things in a sentence). "Sounds like fun!!" Luke said in an excited tone. "It is!" I said, "I'm sure you guys will have a lot of fun there." I finished and then turned up the radio and watched the boys dance to Fall Out Boy's song "Centuries". I laughed and smiled at Ashton before turning off onto the six flags exit.
