Chapter 1
"Come on you guys, we're leaving!" I called to my two best friends, that were coming with me and my family. We were going to Virginia, where my grandparents lived. It was November 25, 2010, and we were going to have a big Thanksgiving dinner. Kyle Barnum and Mitchel Musso came down the stairs with bags in hands.
I secretly liked Mitchel but never tolled him. I was pretty sure Kyle has a crush on me. He was a very good friend, and I trust him, but I just don't feel the same way about him. I had my eyes on Musso. He was so hot! He had short-medium black hair that flicked out at the ends. He had to be the only guy that looked good in that particular haircut. He had a cute triangular shape face, and his smile made him even cuter.
Then those brown puppy dog eyes makes him so irresistible. Kyle, he was tall like Mitchel, but always hunched over like an old man. His hair was black and spiky, and his face was pale. He always wore a white long sleeved shirt, and blue jeans. But I had to admit he did look kind of cute.
"Last person close the door I called at them, as I headed out the door and toward our RV we rented. Once everyone was inside, my dad started it up, and we began our four hour drive, which wasn't too bad, or so I thought.
We had a big family, plus Kyle and Mitchel too. So all together there were eight people. My dad and mom sat in the front. My older sister sat in the very back, that was where the internet worked the best. My little brother and sister sat behind my mom. And I sat between Mitchel and Kyle. I had my laptop, and my mp3player. And I was glad I brought it with me. Kyle was always trying to show off for me, and Marshall and Rachel, my little brother and sister, were of course, fighting.
I could tell Mitchel was getting annoyed as well. I got out my laptop, and plugged in a pair of headphones, then offered one to Mitchel. He nodded, "Thank you!" I smiled, and quickly picked a loud song to block out Kyle and my siblings.
Suddenly Mitchel shook me awake, and I saw that we were there. 'Awe, I was fell asleep on him!' I said to myself.
After we ate my grandma's dinner, which by the way was delicious, Sarah, my older sister and I shared one room, and Mitchel and Kyle went into another. My mom and dad also had a room too. But since there wasn't enough rooms, Marshall and Rachel slept on air mattresses in the living room.
Before I went to bed that night I took a piece of paper out, and found a pen. I started doodling. At first it was just squiggly lines, swirls, and stars, but I then made hearts, then more hearts. I soon found myself doodling love things about me and Mitchel. I was very silly to do so, me being 18, but it was still fun. After I finished I folded it up, and put it on my dresser. "Are you ready to go to bed? Because I am." Sarah said as she closed the lid to her computer. "Yeah." I replied then climbed into bed.
The next morning I woke up at 9:00. Sarah was still asleep, so I grabbed my clothes, hair straighter, and make up, and headed to the bathroom. I put on a black lace shirt tucked into my cute boot cut blue jeans. Then I added a belt and put on some black strap sandals. When I finished I went into the kitchen, Mitchel was also there, and was eating his breakfast. I grabbed a plate and served myself. I plopped down next to him. "Everyone already eat?" I asked as I put a fork full of eggs into my mouth. "Yep, you and I are the only ones who haven't eaten yet."
"And Sarah," I added as she came into the room. "Huh?"
"Yeah, that's right we were talking about you!" I teased.
She chuckled, and went into the kitchen. Suddenly Kyle came into the room. "Well, it's about time you got up!" he said as he sat next to me. I had noticed that he wasn't shy as he used to, when I first met him. I guess I rubbed off on him. I nodded; my mouth was full of eggs, and bacon.
Suddenly from the corner of my eye I saw Kyle's arm lay against the back of my chair. I stopped chewing for a minute then really fast, I stuffed the rest of my breakfast in my mouth, and quickly got up.
I then began back toward my room. "Hey, where are you going?" Kyle called to me. "Uh…I, I going to…brush my teeth!" I quickly said. I then heard Mitchel say as I left, "Do you always have to know where she going?" I smiled to myself. 'Thank you Mitchel!'
After I brushed my teeth, I went into my bedroom, and I saw the piece of paper I drew on last night, on my dresser. I stuffed it into my back pocket, just in case someone might see it. 'That would be really bad!'
As I passed Mitchel's and Kyle's room I heard Mitchel singing one of my favorite songs by him. I stood at the door, and listened. He didn't see me standing there. He had out his guitar and was on the bed. "I wait every single moment of everyday just to see your face. Why can't they let us be? Oh, oh wow. Oh wow… It's us against the world." I smiled as I listened. He was really good. I too, always wanted to be a song artist. I was pretty good at making up lyrics at the top of my head. I even had written quite a few songs.
"I'm never letting go, come on let's run away. Just take me by the hand, we will make it! Oh, oh wow. Oh wow… It's us against the world." He paused. Suddenly without thinking I sang the female part of his song. "Ask, me once. And I live, everything for you. Just say the word." He looked up at me, listening. "You'll see."
"You'll stay with me!" he added.
"I wait every single moment of everyday, just to see you face. Why can't they let us be, Yeah!"
"Oh, oh wow. Oh wow… It's us against the world. Oh, oh wow. Oh wow… It's us against the world!" We sang together. "I'm never letting go," Mitchel sang, "come let's run away! Just take me by the hand, we will make it."
"Oh, oh wow. Oh wow… It's us against the world!" We both sang again.
"Wow, I didn't know you knew that song!" Mitchel said after we finished. I slightly blushed. "Well, to be honest, I really like it. I couldn't resist, I had to sing it with you."
He chuckled. "We'll have to do this again some other time."
"Okay!" I agreed. 'Oh, my gosh I just love him! The way he flips his hair, his wonderful smile, and oh those sweet brown eyes! And I can't believe he actually wanted to do this again with me!'
Later that day as I walked toward Mitchel's and Kyle's room, I heard them arguing. I stopped, and listened in the hallway. 'Time to snoop!'
"You just need to back off," Mitchel said angrily. I smirked, and put my hands on my hips, 'You tell him!'
"It's you, that needs to back off! She loves me." I slapped my hand across my face. 'Really Kyle!'
"In your dreams." Mitchel snorted, and suddenly came out of the room, and caught me eavesdropping. "Uh… Emily, I. I mean… what are you doing here?" Mitchel stuttered. "Yeah, I heard it ALL." I announced. Kyle came out too.
I took out the folded piece of paper I had on my back pocket, and waved it in their faces. "There is only one person I like, and he's on this piece of paper." I put it back, and turned on my heel. I slapped my pocket. "Oh well, guess you'll never know." I then walked off into my room. "Wow, did I actually say that!'
An hour later Kyle came into my room. "Do you want to watch a movie?" I looked up at him, "What movie is it?" I asked. "The Last Song." I jumped off my bed, "Oh yeah, I'm coming!"
Mitchel was on the couch, and I plopped right next to him. Then Kyle came, and sat right next to me! 'Great!' I angrily thought. 'Oh well, I'll just ignore him.' But the whole time he kept trying to talk to me. "SHH!" I finally hissed at him. "Can you just shut up for 10 minutes!"
"Sorry," he whispered. It was only 2 minutes later when he had to tell me something else. I slowly turned to look at him, but he kept talking away. I grabbed him by the hair and shoved him off the couch. "Shut up."
After the movie, it was only 8:30pm. Marshall and Rachel tugged at my arm. "Emily, can you play "Pictionary" with us?" It was a bored game, that was their favorite game. "That game requires teams, there is only three people." I pointed out. Rachel ran over to Mitchel, and pulled him over to us.
"He'll play!"
"Hang on, he might not want to-."
"It's okay, I'll play."
"Well, okay," I said.
"That wouldn't be any fun if you just have two teams, I'll play too!" Kyle exclaimed, feeling left out. "Then it would be uneven," Marshall pointed out again.
"I'll be on Kyle's team!" Sarah jumped in.
I only knew that she had a crush on Kyle, even though she was about a year older then he was. I really didn't know what she saw in him. "YEAH!" Both Marshall and Rachel shouted. "I'll go get the game," Marshall said, as he jumped up, and ran to a closet where all the games were kept.
Quick as a flash, he came back. Then he and Rachel set up the game. We all sat around the bored game. Me and Mitchel, a team of course. Sarah and Ryuzaki, and Marshall and Rachel. We all were having a lot of fun playing the game. The whole time we laughed, and goofed off. Before we knew it, it was 12:00am.
"Okay, Marshall and Rachel. We got to go to bed." Sarah said standing up. "Come on, put away the game, and get ready for bed," I sighed, and leaned my head against Mitchel's shoulder. Then I got up. Mitchel stood up too. Sarah, Marshall, and Rachel left the room, and I started to head for the bathroom.
"What day is it?" Mitchel asked. "Uh, the 26th." I replied. "Wow, already!" I laughed. "Yep, how time flies." I suddenly felt Kyle's hand pull out half the paper from my pocket.
"Oh, and by the way how stupid do you think I am?" I reached back, and grabbed Kyle's hand, and twisted around to face him. "Don't think so!" Suddenly I felt Mitchel snatch the piece of paper from my pocket, and held it above his head, so that I couldn't reach it. "HEY!"
I jumped up and down trying grab it. "Sorry, your not getting it. He turned around, and began to open it. Suddenly I sprang up, and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Give it!" I tried to reach for the paper.
It caught him by surprise, so he dropped the note, and I fell on top of him. Then I reached, and snatched the piece of paper from the ground, and held it in triumph. "Ha!" I said breathless. He got up. "Wow, your fast for a girl."
"Being a girl doesn't have to do with anything."
I put it in my front pocket then quickly headed toward the door. "Come on let us see the paper."
"You're going to have to do better than that to get it." I smirked, and quickly walked to the bathroom.
I was washing my face when Kyle came in. I bent over the sink to splash water on my face. 'Ha, I got my pajamas on, you aren't going to find it!' I thought to myself. But I suddenly gasped. He slapped my butt, and quickly retreated from the bathroom before I could chew him out. "Ugh!"
'Although, I feel bad for him, he's soon going to find out that he's not the one. He's a sensitive guy.' I sigh then dried my face off, and headed to my room.
