Chapter 3: The Arrival
Katie's POV:
When I got onto the plane I settled into a seat next to Carlos, ready for the long ride to our new home. I was tired so I ended up crashing. Carlos woke me up when the plane landed. We all got into our taxis and drove to the palmwoods. I saw Jessie-Lynn's car in the parking lot so me and LeAnn ran inside.
"Jessie!" I screamed and hugged her, "Hey Kates," she said tiredly. I saw her sigh and hug LeAnn. "Katie, how about you and I take our bags up to our rooms and then LeAnn and I will take you down to the pool?" Kendall said hopefully. I nodded my head and raced Carlos up to 2J.
LeAnn and Mrs. T took their stuff to 3J. I threw my stuff in one of the rooms and started searching thru my bags for my swim-suits. I found my light blue 2 piece with the purple polka dots and put it on. I put some shorts on over the bottoms and ran back into the living room were Kendall and LeAnn waited. Someone heavy was coming down the hallway. I could tell they were heavy by the fact that you could hear their footsteps echoing around the hallway.
I went and opened the door before the person could knock. What I found was a very large man wearing a jacket that had the palmwoods logo on it and a pair of pants a few sizes too small. He had glasses, terrible teeth, and he smelled like spaghetti.
"Hello, I'm Mr. Bitters. Manager of the palmwoods and I'm here to tell you about the rules of the palmwoods, considering that you haven't signed the contract or the lease form yet," he said in an annoying nasally voice. I could already tell that he was nosy. My mom walked in the front door and led him to the table. I rolled my eyes at him and left for the pool with Kendall and LeAnn.
"Wait wasn't Carlos coming with us?" I asked as we walked into the elevator. As I said that Carlos came clambering down the hallway decked out in scuba gear, even the wetsuit.
"Alright let's go swimming!" he cheered. We passed James, Logan and Jessie in the lobby. I waved then I saw the pool. I quickly set myself up at one of the chairs and dove into the water. LeAnn and Kendall talked while Carlos played with me in the water.
Jessie-Lynn's POV:
We dropped our bags in the doorway, happy to be home.
"Jessie!" I heard Katie shout, "Hey Kates," I said tiredly. I sighed and hugged LeAnn. "What's wrong?" she asked, "Tired. It's a long drive and I did trig the whole time…" I said sadly. She laughed a little and said ok. "Katie, how about you and I take our bags up to our rooms and then LeAnn and I will take you down to the pool?" Kendall said hopefully. She nodded her head and raced Carlos up to the rooms. My mom kissed my forehead and followed. Mrs. K went upstairs to unpack. James came over to me and gave me a hug.
"Hey," he said softly, "Hi." "You doin' ok?" he asked me, "Yeah I just need a nap," I said exhausted. "Ok how about I take you upstairs, help you unpack, then you can take a nap?" he said sweetly. I just nodded. I watched as Katie, Carlos, Kendall and LeAnn raced out to the pool. I laughed and picked up my bags. James and Logan helped me unpack my stuff. After we were done I ate some pizza that my mom had ordered for us and crashed in my room for the night.
