The Traveling Pants
This is gonna be somewhat my version of the Traveling Pants, and I take no credit for the name and the whole traveling pants thing. But I'm basing this off of the book, since I read it, and I still need to see the movie. (Sad right? I read the book but not the movie) I hope you guys enjoy this and yeahh. (:

All four of us gathered into the torn up attic of Selena's house, and lit the candles as we sat down on the wooden panels and huddled close together around the candle in the middle of us. "Can you believe it's gonna be our first summer apart? What are we gonna do without each other?" I whined as I curled my legs up to my chest.
Demi snuggled up to me and sighed. "I don't know, but we'll make it through somehow right?"
Selena shrugged, and she pressed her lips into a thin line. "I just feel bad for you Demz. We're all going away and you're stuck here alone."
Dem shot her a icy glare and let out another sigh. "Please don't remind me. You're going to Jersey to visit your dad, Tay's going to Cali for some music camp, and Miles gets to go to Paris to visit her Aunt. Then me, I'm stuck here, working at a music store, with no life." She groaned.
Taylor frowned. "I don't have to go, Dem. I'll stay here if you don't wanna be alone." She offered.
She shook her head. "No, you're not missing out on an opportunity to further your music education and stuff."
I rubbed her shoulder. "The summer will go by quickly Dem, and sooner or later we'll be reunited again."
Selena gave her a warm smile. "Mi is right, and who knows, what if Joe finally gets the guts to ask you out?"
Demi rolled her eyes. "SURE. That'll be the day."
I giggled, "Demz, your such a downer."
She shrugged. "That's me."
We all sat there for a moment in silence, it wasn't awkward, but I guess we were just taking in the last night we'll be together for awhile. Taylor huffed, then put her curly blond hair into a ponytail. "I don't really want to go to music camp. Is that weird?"
Selena nodded and laughed. "Yes! Tay, you love music, and your mom said this camp is one of the best in the country. You're lucky you got accepted to attend. You have to go."
I nodded agreement. "You do, your amazing at singing and playing guitar, your just multi-talented."
She smiled brightly. "Aw, thanks guys."
"You're welcome." Sel and I said in unison.
As the night passed on, I checked my phone and saw it was already past midnight. "Guys it's past midnight. We gotta go. I still have to pack tomorrow."
Demi was already half asleep and groaned as I helped her off of the floor. "Come on Demi." I laughed as she mumbled something under her breath.
Selena laughed and went to the other side of her and followed Taylor out of the attic. Once we put Demi on the couch, she instantly fell into a deep sleep. WE all said our goodnights and fell asleep in Selena's living room.
N e x t D a y, N o P o v;
The four girls woke up, and did their daily morning routines, then headed to Miley's house to help her pack. Once they go into her room, Miley quickly started pulling out clothes and throwing them into two of her suit cases. She stopped when she say Selena pulling out a pair of jeans from her desk chair. "Mi, didn't you buy these at the secondhand shop? Why haven't you even worn them?"
Miley shrugged, and walked over to her, and took the pants out of her hands. "I don't know, I forgot about them until now."
"Try them on, maybe you can bring them on your trip." Taylor suggested.
Miley looked at them. "Do I really have to?"
Demi nodded, "Yes, now put them on. Don't make me strip your shorts off of you."
Miley rolled her eyes and laughed. She pulled off her ripped shorts, and put on the light blue colored skinny jeans. She put her hands on her waist and felt the studs around it. "Those look amazing on you." Selena giggled.
Miley smiled and looked in the mirror at how the jeans hugged every inch of her butt, and legs perfectly. "I like them. They are now my new favorite pair of jeans." She pulled them off after admiring herself and handed them to Selena. "Try them on Sel."
Selena happily obliged and slipped them on. She looked down and examined her bottom half. "Ok this is weird, they fit me just right. Is that possible?" She looked surprised, and looked back down. She quickly pulled them off and threw them at Taylor. "TayTay try them. Let's see if they fit you."
Demi burst out laughing. "But Tee is so skinny, they won't fit her."
Taylor rolled her eyes and tried on the pair of jeans. Her mouth widened, and formed an 'O' shape. "They fit me too!" She squealed. "These pants are magical."
Demi got off of Miley's bed and stood next to her. "Not yet, they'll be magical if they can fit a girl with an ass. Hand them to me." Taylor pulled off the jeans as Demi pulled them on. She looked behind her at her ass. "Holy crap, they fit my ass."
The girls looked at each other with looks on each of their faces. It was weird that the pair of jeans fit them perfectly because they were all different body types. Miley was the one with curves and the long legs, while Demi had the big ass. And Selena had the short body and no curves, and Taylor was the tall, thin bodied girl. Miley spoke up, as each of them looked at her. "These pants are pretty magical if they can fit us all perfectly. I think we should share them, as in we can each have them for at least 2 weeks and send it to each other along with letters." She smiled, awaiting for them to answer.
Taylor, being the bubbly answered first. "I love that idea. We should do it."
"And make rules along with it." Selena added to Miley's great idea.
Demi agreed and took of the pants putting it back on Miley's chair. "We should write down the rules now."
"Alright." Miley said, she got off her bed and grabbed her notebook and a pen as they all wrote down the rules of the "magical" pants. After a few minutes they finally finished the 10 rules of the pants.
1. You must never wash the pants.
2. You must never cut rips into the pants, NEVER.
3. Never let a boy take off the pants, but you may take them off yourself in his presence.
4. Never think negative thoughts like "I'm fat, or I'm ugly." While wearing the pants.
5. Don't pick your nose while wearing the pants, but you may casually scratch it, while somewhat picking it.
6. Wear the pants with confidence.
7. You MUST always write to your best friends, no matter how much fun it is without them with you.
8. Send the pants to each best friend according to the pattern, Miley, Selena, Demi, Taylor, then Taylor, Demi, Selena, and Miley. Failure to complete it, will end up in a big tackle upon reunion.
9. Never wear the pants with a tucked in shirt, it's tacky and a big no-no.
10. And REMEMBER- The pants are love, so love your best friends. And love yourself.
They all kissed the paper with the rules of the "Traveling/Magical" pants and inserted it into the pants. Demi sighed as she looked at the time. "It's almost time for you guys to all leave me."
"Oh Demi." Miley frowned, and pulled her into a hug. Soon Taylor and Selena joined in and they shared a few tears.
Demi pulled away from the group hug and wiped her tears, "You guys know I hate crying, but yet you still make me do it." She sniffled and the four of them laughed.
Miley closed her pair of suitcases and pulled the handles out for both of them, "Well I'm leaving now, will you guys walk me downstairs?"
The three of them nodded, and helped her carry her suitcases downstairs. Miley put her black boots on, along with her jacket and hugged them all again. "I'll miss you guys."
"We'll miss you too Mi." They all said together.
Miley's eyes welled up with tears, but she blinked them away before they could fall. They walked out and watched her leave with her mom. Miley waved as she passed her best friends, then put her hand down, when they were no longer in sight. Demi pulled her phone out and tears started to fall out of her eyes. "You guys are gonna have to leave now too. Your flights leave in an hour."
Selena nodded, and hugged the teary-eyed girl tightly. "Try to enjoy your summer Dem."
She shook her head. "Impossible." Taylor then squeezed her tightly and smiled sadly.
"I'll think of you when I need to be sassy." Taylor giggled.
Demi smiled, and wiped the tears. "And I'll think of you when I need to be an airhead." The girls hugged each other one last time before they got into Selena's car and dropped Demi off at her house, leaving her alone, and officially starting their summers without each other.
