Alright.

So I had started this back at the beginning of December when me and SpencerReidFanatic were going to a football game and I kinda forgot about it until a week ago when she started bugging me about when I was going to post it and I am finally posting it so:

SpencerReidFanatic STOP CYBER STALKING ME! HERE IS YOUR FRICKIN' STORY THAT YOU WANTED ME TO POST O SO VERY BADLY!

New Story. Sorry for grammatical errors.

I do not own Degrassi.

"You know the scenery out here is very beautiful this time of year. Don't you think so, Kaitlin?"

"Sure, mom." I said as I continued to stare out the window at the world around me. I was only half paying attention to what was going on in the car between the two younger twin brothers. You see, I'm the oldest in my family. I'm also the only girl, which sucks because I have two younger brothers who are constantly annoying me.

"Honey, could you please at least sound enthusiastic about going to D.C.?" My mother asked me from the passenger seat of the van.

"Why should I be enthusiastic about going to D.C.?" I asked back to her.

"Well, there's lots of things to do and we're letting you do things in D.C. on your own for two weeks."

"I see your point. But, what if I don't want to go to D.C.? What if I wanted to stay at home, with all my friends, for the last two weeks of summer?"

"K, we're already halfway to D.C. We're not turning back so suck it up. And we even asked you if you wanted to come with us and you said sure." My dad said from his spot in the driver's seat. He continued to stare at the road through the windshield but he occasionally glanced up at me in the rearview mirror.

"Whatever." I said as I laid down in the back of the van and stared up at the car's ceiling. My brothers continued to play Mario Cart on their DSs and I found that it quickly got annoying and I pulled out my headphones to listen to Bruno Mars. I laid my head against the pillow I had stolen and I soon fell asleep just as It Will Rain stopped playing.

{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}

When I woke up again I noticed my brothers had fallen asleep and the sun was starting to set.

Thank God, they finally shut up. Well, I slept for probably a good hour.

"Kaitlin, are you awake?" My mom asked as she looked over the passenger seat.

"Yeah."

"We'll be at the hotel in a couple of minutes. Could you wake up your brothers please?"

"Mom, I don't want to wake them up. It's finally quiet."

"Honey, wake them up. We'll be at the hotel soon and you can be alone in the room we booked you."

"….."

"Please?"

"….."

"Please."

"Fine." I said as I shook my brothers' shoulders, jolting them awake from their sleep.

"What was that for?" Tyler said as he looked at me.

"Mom told me to do it."

"Well you could have been gentler."

"Well you could just shut up."

"Well you could just go back to your emo corner or something."

"Well you could just go back in your cage."

"Children, stop arguing!"

"Whatever." I said as I turned to the window just as we pulled into the hotel. It was beautiful. And this was coming from a girl who grew up on the Eastern Shore and was accustomed to rustic life and crabbing.

"Freedom!" I said as I climbed out of the car.

"You're overreacting." Eric said as he got out of sthe car and Tyler came out after him.

"I don't care because in less than twenty-four hours I'll be free to do whatever I want for two whole weeks. That means no you." I said as I started doing a happy dance in the middle of the entrance area.

"Whatever." Tyler said as he pulled out his phone probably to text his nerd friends.

"Kids, can you help unpack the car?" Mom asked from where she was standing near the trunk. Just then dad came out of the hotel lobby with a bellhop behind him with the luggage cart. My brothers and I stopped dead in our tracks and stared at the bellhop.

"We don't have to do it ourselves?" Tyler asked.

"Nope. The hotel has complimentary bellhops." Dad said as he opened the trunk and the bellhop started to put our luggage on the cart.

This is gonna be one sweet two weeks if it already started out like this…

"Is there anything else I can get you?" The saleswoman asked me from behind the counter of the drugstore.

"No thanks." I said as I pulled out my wallet.

"That'll be $15.50." She said after she had wrung up all the items in the basket.

"Okay." I said as I handed her the money.

"Thanks. Have a nice day." She said as she handed me the bag of things I bought.

I walked out of the Rite Aid heading back through the tunnel to the hotel. I walked into the lobby and over towards the elevators. I pressed the button and pulled out my room key as I waited for the elevator to come.

"Kaitlin?"

I turned around to see my old friend Eli standing near the elevators.

"Eli!" I said as I ran up and hugged him. "Oh my god, I haven't seen you in forever."

"Yeah. Ever since you moved to the US." He said just as the elevator came. He stepped into the elevator and I followed suit. I noticed that he had a Monster in one hand that he was drinking from as he pressed '16'. "What floor are you on?"

"Same one."

"That's cool."

"Yeah." I said as I stared down at my shoes. "So what brings you to DC?"

"Vacation. You?"

"My brothers are going to this program-thingy and I was dragged here but I get to spend two weeks away from my parents."

"What program?"

"Junior NYLC."

"Nice. My parents thought it would be fun to take a trip to America's capital."

"You don't sound so excited about it. Why?"

"I have much rather stayed at home and been lazy than have come here."

"How about I try and change your mind?" I said as the elevator reached the 16th floor.

"How?"

"Meet me for dinner tonight down in the lobby."

"How am I gonna sneak away from my parents?"

"If you're that worried about them I'll come pick you up from your hotel room. So what shall it be then?"

"Fine. I'll meet you downstairs in the lobby for dinner."

"At 6."

"Okay." He said as he turned to go down the hallway to his hotel room and I went the other way to mine.
