A/N- WELCOME BACK TO "ELEVEN-ELEVEN, WISHES CAN HAPPEN IN REALITY"! Well let's shorten it to Eleven-Eleven or something while talking about it because it can be a mouthful I know. But here is chapter 2! I am so grateful for the reviews and the views of it and that you all like it! It makes me so happy! Now to a guest review said they hoped I was one to update daily. I really am going to be trying my absolutely hardest to try and update every weekend when I can get ahold of it easier, because if any of you have read my other stories you know in my other A/N's you know how my internet at school is very finicky. That's why the weekends are the best time for me because I usually am somewhere with actually good internet. So here is chapter 2, now for some fun with it, if you know Massachusetts people then you know of the famous "Boston" accents, which I did take into play in this story so if you want, read it with that famous accent, its fun really! So onto the story!
ELEVEN-ELEVEN, WISHES CAN HAPPEN IN REALITY
Chapter 2: New Adventures
The next morning
"Mitchie, darling up. We have a plane to catch soon." My mother nudged my side. I groaned and rolled over covering my head with my pillow and blankets.
"No thanks. 5 more minutes" I mumbled letting sleep take over again.
"No way, Michelle up NOW." She said pulling all sheets off me and took my pillows. No way did she pull that name card. I rolled over and gave her a death glare. "I don't care that you don't like being called MICHELLE but you are to be up and ready in the next half hour. See you downstairs." She said dragging out the name and left. I groaned and just flopped back over. But I eventually knew if I weren't up that she would just kick me out of bed. No literally I have bruised on my hips for being literally pushed out of bed from my parents. Abusive? No. I guess you could say I deserved it; I seriously am no morning person. I pushed myself up and to my bathroom and took a quick shower. I wrapped one of the last towels left out around my body and another around my soaking wet hair. I put on sweats and a tee so I was comfortable for the flight and let my hair air-dry. No matter what it would dry pin straight like always. I made sure to have everything I needed for the flight, my carryon and everything left outside my door. Then I packed all the last minute things in my room into the boxes. Everything that was being taken on the flight, like the luggage with all of the clothes and stuff was already in the foyer.
I heard a knock on my door. "Mom I'm up!" I heard it's not your mom, and it opened to Sierra. I squealed and ran over to her and hugged the living crap out of her. "I am going to miss you so wicked much. I am so wicked mad at my parents for making me move right before senior year. Like come on!"
"I know right. Your parents are lame there girly. I can't believe you won't be here for senior year. But think of this, you get to go to LA! Hello! That is so cool! I've always wanted to see the west coast. Maybe you'll get to see some celebrities! Tell me if you do! So wicked jelly of you for that!"
"Woah there babe. I don't even care. I am being taken against my will to go there. Like come on. I'd so rather be here with you. I don't even care about the west coast. I love it here on the east coast where we will be in the same time zone, same state, city. So don't go all green monsta on me! But totally, if I see any celebs I will be that creep and take a stalker pic and send them to you!"
"If you see Jason White, from Connect 3 can you tell him I plan on marrying him one day?" I snickered at her. Yeah we like them. Well not totally, used to be is a better way to describe it. Well Sierra still loves them. I do like them but not love them; I loved them before cookie cutter came into play. And that Shane Grey became a pompous jerk. So I used to celeb crush on him. No biggie, he's a jerk. Nate Black is just there being a curly guy and Jason White, Sierra celeb crush to this very day is Mr. Airhead according to the press. I so don't fully see her obsession with him at all. "What! I know they live somewhere in LA, and you totally want to have Mr. Grey's babies so don't snicker at me."
"Um no. I do not want to get preggers and have my snarky jerk popstar's babies. He can have one of those sleezy girls have them. Plus I don't like him. Totally over him. And newsflash, Los Angeles is huge, there is like a rare chance that I would ever run into him and so wouldn't care if I did anyways."
"Whatever, you could. I've heard of weirder things happening. You could run into him. But look, don't worry about me. Enjoy LA, get away from here and experience new things. Let free, find love. Let someone in. Look I know these past few years have been tough but maybe a clean slate is what you need. This place holds too many painful memories."
Great I am tearing up. She pulls me into a hug. "Thanks Si. But the thing is leaving here is so painful. There are too many amazing memories as well as painful ones. I don't know if I can do it. I'm scared." I whisper against her shoulder.
"I know you can do it Mi. Don't be scared. Remember when you look into the stars, you brother is looking down at you guiding you, but I am there too. But you can actually just call me and I will always be there for you. Remember that. You are so strong. You are going to rock it out there. I love you."
"Thanks Si. I love you too."
"MICHELLE WE ARE LEAVING NOW! GET YOUR STUFF AND THEN WE NEED TO BRING IT ALL DOWNSTAIRS AND HEAD TOWARDS THE AIRPORT." My mom yelled from somewhere in the penthouse. Ugh she needs to stop calling me that.
"I should get going love. My parents are probably wondering where I am. Call me when you land. I love you lots. Remember be strong. You will be amazing!" I hugged her quickly and Sierra disappeared. I sighed and went onto the balcony and looked out into the city and the sky. This is for you brother. I went back into my room closing the balcony doors and went to my main door and turned and took in my room. I am really going to miss this place. I closed the door and grabbed my carryon and my guitar and walked slowly through the penthouse to where my parents were in the foyer.
My mom hugged me, "Hunny it will be okay." I just glared at her. She knew I was over pissed off at her for this, but she tried to just let it pass. I knew she upset that I am not happy, but she knows this place means everything to me. "Look I know how much it means here but it's a new adventure." I think she is more sad and thinks I am not happy for her to get this new job. But I am proud of her for this job, I am, I am just sad to leave this place and I like the adventure I am on now, not having to start a new one.
But I put on a small smile. "I know mom. I am really going to miss it here. There are just so many memories here. But I am proud of you, okay? You deserve this job. You are an amazing chef." I hugged her.
"I know darling. There are so many memories here, good and bad. But you know, maybe we need to try something new. Take a chance. Maybe this is our life path."
"Who knows mom. Let's just go okay." She nodded and we grabbed the last of it and I walked out. But I was missing something inside of me. "Mom. I'll be right down. I just need a sec." She nodded, and when she was out of view I made it to the pantry closet door. There on the wall marked my brother's heights and mine when we were younger. They were marked every month or so. Leaving that was tough because it brought memories. My dad found me about ten minutes later crouched in the fetal position against the door with tears running freely down my cheeks. He was the only one who understood.
"I thought that I'd find you here hunny. It will be okay." I only nodded and he helped me up. He held me and rubbed my back. "Shh. Come on, we need to get going." I only nodded and grabbed my stuff with the help of my dad and made it downstairs. We got into the car and made our way to the airport.
It took a half hour or so to get to the airport and then we parked and got a trolley for our stuff. I grabbed my guitar and bag and made we headed towards security and where to leave the luggage. Once through security we had to get to our gate and start boarding. We were in first class and so I grabbed to window seat and sat next to my dad. The plane made it to the runway and we were leaving my favorite place. I watched as Boston got smaller and smaller until it was nothing anymore. But we got to be in the sky. Maybe be closer to little brother. I put my headphones in once it signaled electronics were allowed and ended up asleep. It was going to be a long flight. What felt like 10 minutes really was hours, and I found my dad lightly shaking me awake telling me we are landing soon so electronics need to be off. I put my iPod back into my bag and took the view from the sky in. I'm here little brother. I don't know what to expect but I'm here. Once we touched down, they started to gate us to the airport terminal. They said phones were allowed back on, so I turned mine on and sent Si a text, I'm here safe and sound. Could you just kill me now? –Mi. I put my phone back in my bag and grabbed my stuff. We headed towards the luggage claim, to grab the few things that we put on incase everything else we didn't get immediately. The rents got the rental for the day or so until they could get their own cars here. They got ahold of the tubs that was a bulk of our clothes and things we'd need to get us started and then we drove off from LAX. You'll be fine Mi. I know you will! I'll talk to you later byes. –Si. Ugh she so doesn't know what she is talking about. I don't even know where we are going to be living. An apartment, penthouse, actual house? All I care about is making sure I have a balcony to look out. "So, where are we living? In the heart of the city, high up? Where?"
"Well you see darling, we are going to be in the city, but just out where there are neighborhoods and we have a house. It is beautiful and large. You'll love it."
"Wait, so no city view? A house outside the city? Are you trying to kill me here?"
"Darling you have a balcony don't worry. So stop being so dramatic. The house is in the city, but a fancy neighborhood, barely outside city limits. Like 5 minutes from the stores. You're school is only a ten minute drive, 20 minute walk."
"I am not being dramatic."
"Yes you are. Now look we are about there." We stopped in front of a gated community and drove 5 minutes into the streets. These houses were massive. Like full on Ritz life here. We stopped in front of a huge brick house with a circular drive and a couple car garage. It was at least 3 floors high. It was gorgeous, but don't go telling my parents I approve of it. "What do you think?" I couldn't even vocalize what I thought. I walked into the house and it had this beautiful grand foyer and high ceiling. Everything about it was beautiful. There was a spiral staircase but it was open and everything about it was amazing. I can see why they picked it, every room is amazing, the kitchen was gorgeous, must have been a wicked huge selling point to mom. There was a den, and the entire back wall was taken up by windows and French doors. The backyard had an infinite pool and a Jacuzzi and everything; it was amazing.
"So where is my room?" My parents shared a smile.
"Go up to the top floor. It is your own private floor. But your room is to the right. Go to the left once you digest your room." I nodded and started the climb to the top. My own floor? What about them? Once I got up there, there were double doors were on the right and then a couple single doors on the left. I went to the right of course first like told. I know no furniture or anything would be there but at least I got to see it. I opened the doors and there was this massive and I mean massive room. I faced the back of the house, and the entire wall that was the back, was glass. But it had French doors that opened to a beautiful balcony. It had a great view. Once back inside I saw an en suite bathroom that was marble and beautiful. There was a walk in closet probably double the one I had at home. It took quite awhile to digest this. Then once I did though, I walked across the hall and opened the first door, but there was nothing, confused, I went to the next room but it was as well. The only difference was that there were a lot of bookshelves and it was not as bright as the others. The last one, opened to a room full of mirrors, and the same, glass wall that faced the backyard. It was amazing. Once I got downstairs, my parents were smiling. "Do you like it?" I could only nod. They smiled bigger. "We thought so, so as you can tell it's your bedroom, bath and closet on one side. Then on the other, the first room will be a recording studio/music room. Then the middle one is your own private study/library. Then the back is your dance studio."
I ran and hugged them. "Thank you. It's beautiful. But what about you guys? And guests?"
"We take up the second floor as long as guests. There are a couple guest rooms on the main floor as well. Did you see the basement?" I shook my head no, and followed them downstairs. There was an amazing family/game room. Well it would be once it was set up. There was a mini theatre as well. Once we were on the main level we were standing around. "Okay, we have a lot to do, you darling have to go and register for school, even though they end in a couple days you still need to get aquatinted with it. I know it sucks, but then you get the rest of the day for yourself. Oh and I forgot, come with us." Yuck school. I hate school. It sucks but at least its only a couple days. But still like ew like–… "Do you like your new car?" Seriously? My jaw just dropped. Parked there was a beautiful silver BMW convertible. I looked at them and pointed at me barely being able to get the word 'mine' out. They nodded and I squealed and hugged them. I may have some issues driving but I still love it. "Go get changed and then you need to head towards the school."
I only nodded and then made it my suitcases. I grabbed a pair of black skinnies, a tight blue top with sparkles on the top and changed. I put my beat up black converses with it and grabbed my bag. They gave me the directions and my keys and I headed out. I was still apprehensive with driving but I was fine. I got to the school and just looked around. People were in clumps. I hate being new. Ugh. Great. I locked my car and grabbed my bag and made my way towards the main entrance. The school was huge, Los Angeles Prep. I made it in fine only getting a few stares and I asked for where the main office was. I got there successfully and got my schedule. Great. I opened the door and made my way out to just get this day over with. I got out but ended up running into someone. I heard an ouch and I saw a girl with crazy brown curly hair adjacent of me on the floor.
A/N- well there you go. Sorry to leave on a cliffhanger but I really had no idea where to leave this chapter off at so I decided this is where it would get to end. Want to know what happens next? Well then… Stay tuned for the next chapter for more fun! Have a great rest of your day and week. Love you all!
