Milan's p o v

"Oh My god look how beautiful these mountains are!

The look of astonishment and wonder on my little sisters face was all the thank you I needed.

Cat's eyes were wide as she turned and twisted throughout the back seat of the car looking out through the windows as dad drove through the town of Wrightwood which runs in the San Bernardino Mountains.

Daddy aren't they beautiful?

Cat giggled excitedly.

Yes kitten their magnificent

Trivia question for you princesses

Yay I love trivia!

You love everything Cat

Do not Jade I hate cruelty, pain, scary movies

What's the question dad?

Do you know what the highest point of the mountains is?

No daddy what is it?

Thank you

Your welcome Cat

I smiled as she reached up hugging me her tiny thin arms locked around my neck as I inhaled her sweet scent.

Cat sweetie I know you are excited

Oh mommy I am I am I really am!

I'm going to have so much fun this summer!

She yelped clapping and giggling. I could feel my own heart swell with happiness seeing the look of pleasure and anticipation on my sweet little sisters face.

Her gorgeous hazel eyes lite up like a Christmas time fire like two hazel nuts roasting. Her shoulders length light brown hair which she had just highlighted with blond streaks fell on her right shoulder.

Which was pinned with a butterfly clip.

I'm sure you and Jade will both have fun this summer darling

Plus make loads new friends

Mom's words mad me look towards Cat's best friend.

They couldn't be more different if they tried to be Catrina Siena Valentine stands about 4'11 she weighs only 82 pounds her lovely skin is like the color of peaches. Her smile is so bright it lights up a whole house.

She's a bundle of high energy and cheerful spirits she's larger than life sometimes which amazes me how she gets so much energy when she spends every minute just fighting to get her breath.

Jade is the total opposite even sitting down in her seat strapped down Cat's body could barely be contained she twisted and turned every way to get a view.

Jade August West sat next to her arms crossed head laying down against the back of the seat her eyes slit with anger and dull of energy.

She didn't flinch when mom said her name which made my mom sigh with worry she was trying so hard to get Jade to respond this whole trip but she remained almost comatose. Even Cat's cheer didn't get a rise out of her.
