Road Trip
Chapter 2!
Sora awoke to the sound of the phone ringing next to her bedside. She answered it, not really awake, her voice heavy with sleep. "What?"
"Good morning sunshine! Wakey wakey!" a cheery voice rang back at her, yes literally rang.
It took her a moment to figure out whom the voice belonged to. "Oh blow off Tai. Do you have any idea what time it is?" She slammed the phone down and glanced at the clock. 9:07 it read. Too freakin early Sora thought to herself. With that she rolled over and tried to fall back asleep.
But that was impossible, because the phone started ringing again, and when Sora didn't answer it, it kept ringing and ringing and ringing some more. Mimi and Kari were soon awake, and after about the 30th ring, Mimi reached over and answered it.
"OKAY WE'RE AWAKE!" she screamed into the phone and slammed it down. Grumbling she stumbled into the bathroom for a shower.
An hour and a half later, and the three girls and packed and ready, they made their way down to the vehicles.
"Thought you would never get down here, we've been waiting for hours." Matt joked as he loaded the bags into the cars.
They hit the road a few minutes later, and stopped at a nearby Dunkin Donuts and loaded up on doughnuts and coffee, high in caffeine.
By one they were entering the foothills of the mountains, were they stopped for lunch at a lakeside picnic area. A few miles back, they stopped at a subway where they had each gotten a foot long sub, half for lunch half for dinner.
They sat in comfortable silence while they ate, gazing out at the lake and the boats floating calmly on its surface. Ducks soon found their way over to the group, and they filled up on breadcrumbs that they threw at them.
Kari then noticed a swing set tucked away under a grove of trees, a ways back. "Come on T.K. let's go swing!" she jumped up and raced the young boy over to the swings.
The older kids laughed at the young pair enjoying themselves. Switching on and off who was pushing whom thought T.K. was mostly the one doing the pushing.
They stayed there for another hour, just relaxing with friends. "It's so nice out here." Matt commented. "Why don't we just forget about the motel tonight and stay here?"
The others agreed quickly, but not noticing the clouds rapidly rolling in. Rain soon pelted down on the group, and they made a mad dash for their cars. By the time they had gotten the tops up on both of them, they were all soaking wet, but nobody really seemed to care.
"So much for sleeping under the stars tonight." Matt grumbled a few miles down the road.
"Well we will, soon. And then we'll be longing for beds." Mimi patted Matt's shoulder. "Tai what's that up there?" She asked. "Looks like a…" But it was hard to tell, do to the darkness the clouds set in, and the heavy rain pelting down.
Only when it was to late did they realized that it was an overturned tractor-trailer. Tai swerved. But it was to late, he hit the truck head on, and Sora's car behind them, not knowing what had happened slammed into the back of them.
All Mimi saw was glass flying at her, no she was flying at the glass, and she didn't have her seat belt on, before she blacked out.
Okay, now it's getting good…. Review and tell me what you think! Thankies!
