A/N: This story will be entirely from Zoey's point if view. Please enjoy and review!
I leaned my head against the cab window and looked outside. The houses of the small town I grew up in were passing by quickly. I was both excited and nervous to be returning home after Total Drama Revenge of the Island. Excited to see my parents again. But nervous of what they would think of me on the show and more importantly, what they would think of Mike.
The cab came to a slow stop in front of my house. It wasn't a big house, two floors but only two bed rooms. It was the most beautiful place in the world to me though. It was a light blue colour with one white garage door. It had a wrap around porch and a white front door. The grass on our small lawn was bright green and freshly cut. In front of the porch was a small flower bed with red roses, my favourite.
I thanked and paid the cab driver and got my bags from the trunk. As soon as I closed the trunk the yellow taxi drove away. The front door of my house open and out came my mom and dad.
"Mom! Daddy!" I shouted dropping my bags and running to give my parents a hug
"Zoey, good to see you baby" My dad said hugging me back
"How are you?" My mom asked
"I'm very good" I said excitedly "I'm so happy to see you guys again"
"And we are happy to see you" My dad said grabbing my bags "We missed you so much. Let's go inside"
We walked inside my childhood home. The front door lead into the the dining room. It had light brown walls and hardwood floors. There was a small beige sofa with a matching love-seat placed in the room. In front of the sofa was a little wooden coffee table with a few pictures of me as a child.
We walked up the stair and into my bedroom. It had light brown walls and purple curtains on the windows. there was a small purple bed in the centre. Beside one of the windows was a little bookshelf with pictures of my family beside it and a few other decorations above it. On the opposite wall was a small desk with a small sewing machine and my pet hamster on top of it.
"Hi Miss Puffycheeks" I say to my hamster
"She missed you, but don't worry, I've been feeding her." My dad said dropping my bags on my bed
"Do you want us to help you unpack?" My mom asked
"Yes please" I said
I go to the stereo on my shelf and put in my favourite CDs from my favourite band, The Bertles, and we begin to unpack
"So how was the weather there?" My dad asked trying to make small talk
My dad is short and chubby. He has grey hair and big brown eyes. My mom on the other hand is taller and has long red hair. She is skinny and also has brown eyes.
"Is that really what you want to talk about daddy?" I asked "The weather?"
"No not exactly." My dad sighed "I saw the show and I really wanted to talk to you about-"
My dad was interrupted my the doorbell ringing
"Who could that be?" My mom asked walking out of the room
My dad and I followed her and she opened the front door
Standing on my porch was a short blonde girl. She was super skinny, she wore a blue top that had a very low neckline and very short shorts. She had blue eyes and wore more makeup than a clown.
"Laura?" I asked
"Hey Zoey!" she said pulling me into a hug "A missed you so much!"
I patted her back before lightly pushing her away. I was very confused, Laura was the most popular girl at my school and it was no secret that she didn't like me. I didn't really have any friends at school and Laura was always picking on me for it.
"What are you doing here?" I asked her
"I came to see you silly" Laura said like I asked the most ridiculous question ever
"Why?" I asked
She just laughs "Oh Zo-Zo you are so funny"
Zo-Zo? This was getting weird
"Anyways let's go to the mall or something!" Said Laura grabbing my wrist and pulling me towards the door
"But I just got back and I need to finish packing and-" I began but was interrupted
"Nonsense" She said "You can unpack later, but right now we need some gal time. You don't mind do you Mr. and Mrs. Mill?"
"Um, no I guess not" My mom said
"Great, let's go Zoey!" Laura said pulling me out the door and into her Silver Porsche
"Where are we going?" I asked as we started driving away
"We are going to the mall!" She shouted excitedly
"But-" I tried to say something, I had so many questions
"SHHHHHHHH" She said turning the radio up "I love this song!"
We drove for a few more minutes with Laura singing along to the bad pop songs on the radio, I tried to ask her questions but every time I tried to speak she just turned the radio louder
We finally reached the mall and we found a parking spot and got out of the car
"Look Laura, we are you pretending to like me" I asked, finally able to talk without the radio
"What are you talking about Zo-Zo?" Laura asked "I do like you"
"No you don't" I almost yelled "Before I left for the show you couldn.t stand me. You made fun of me everyday!"
"People can change" Laura said
"Not people like you"
"Okay look" Laura said turning to me "You were on T.V."
"What does that have to do with anything?" I asked as we walked into the mall
As soon as we stepped into the mall all eyes were on us. I recognized most of the people from school, I didn't really talk to any of them, but I've seen them in class and the halls. Then everyone ran up to us and formed a huge crowd around us. Everyone started asking questions at once
"Zoey how was your stay on the island?"
"What did Chris smell like?"
"Can you get me on that show?"
"What is going on?" I asked Laura, who was still beside me
"Can't you see Zoey?" Laura said "You are famous!"
