Title: California, Here We Come
Rating: PG to be safe, but most likely G
Summary: The group finally heads out for California.
Disclaimer: I own nothing, except for the new characters introduced in the next few chapters. I do wish I owned Michael, but sadly I don't :( but I'll keep dreaming.........The titles of the story come from the song California by Phantom Planet so I don't own them either....
Slight AU: Tina and Dave are broken up already BUT this story occurs right after the Rocky Horror Picture show, so Mia IS dating Kenny at this time. Also, Tina is the only one who Mia's told about her crush on Michael.
~~*Mia's POV*~~
I'm over at Lilly's right now. We have to meet everyone back at the school at 7:00 p.m. I'm just here making sure that Lilly has everything she'll need. Of course, she has her video camera. She's going to make episodes of her show while she's there. She's upset that her show won't air for a while though, due to her being gone. When she gets back, she'll have a lot of footage though. I can't wait. This is going to be so great. I have to quit writing though, because Lilly keeps nagging on me. She keeps saying that she is going to forget something, and that I am being no help because I'm too busy with my journal.
~~*Michael's POV*~~
Right now I'm just checking to make sure that I have everything that I need for California. I mean we'll be gone for a long time. I just hope that they have computers of some sort. I mean CrackHead is going to be so far behind. Oh well, it can wait if it has to. I'll be enjoying myself with Mia by my side, hopefully.
I guess it's time to go. We're going to Mia's house for a while so that we can eat dinner with her mom and Mr. G and then we're off to California. I can't wait.
~~*Mia's POV*~~
Right now, I'm on my way to the school where we will be picked up in a private limo and driven to the airport to ride in our private jet to California. Lilly, Michael, and Lars are with me. My mom decided that she and Mr. G would drive there to see us off, but they wanted to drive separately so that they could head home afterwards.
We already ate a whole dinner with them, but my mom said that she had to be there when I left. I told her that it was alright and that I'd be fine. She started crying and saying "My little girl doesn't need her mother anymore." I tried to comfort her. Mr. G even tried to explain that I did want her there, I just didn't want her to have to come out to see me off and then come all the way home. She was still balling her eyes out. I finally told her that I loved her and that I really hoped she would come to see me off. She then smiled like nothing had happened and grabbed her coat. I guess this pregnancy is really getting to her. One minute she's crying and the next she's happy, already walking out the door. Hormones sure have a way of getting to people.
So I'm sitting here in the limo listening to Lilly talk about everything she plans on doing when we get to California.
I'm just hoping that I have classes with someone I know. I'm not good with meeting new people. It's not like people particularly want to meet me anyway. I mean how many people would want to talk to a 5'9" flat chested freak like me? Well, not many, I'll tell you.
I'm still worrying about Michael though. He's the only guy that isn't our age, which means that he'll be in totally different classes. He'll probably meet up with a girl like Judith who can surf too. Then, he'll ditch us for her the whole trip.
I mean, at least at AEHS, I got to see him in Gifted and Talented, but I seriously doubt that will happen. Oh well, worrying about it will get me no where. I'm here with him now.
~~*Michael's POV*~~
I'm sitting in the limo with Mia, Lilly, and Lars. Mia looks so adorable sitting there writing in her journal. I love how she bites her lip or taps her pencil when she's thinking. Lilly's still going on about something or other. I'm really not paying attention though. I don't think Mia is either. Lilly has yet to realize this though.
I've been so busy thinking about Mia that I completely dazed out.
"Michael, we're there." Lilly said turning to me.
"HELLO MORON! Snap out of it. We're there. GET OUT OF THE LIMO" she said shaking me violently.
"Chill Lilly, I'm going." I said shaking her hands off of my shoulders and getting out of the limo.
Lilly sure is going to make this trip fun. If only I were talking, you could hear the sarcasm in my voice.
As soon as we got out of the limo, I saw Kenny run right up to Mia. I tried to hear what they were saying.
"Hey Mia! This is going to be so much fun. I can't wait. I hope that we're in all of our classes together. Are you as excited as I am?" he asked throwing his arm around Mia's shoulder.
I couldn't help but glare at him when he did that. He was obviously really excited. I can't really blame him though. I mean, if Mia was my girlfriend and we were going to be together in California, I would be acting the same as he is.
Then I heard her say "Yeah, I can't wait." I was crushed. I mean, I know Kenny's her boyfriend and all, but part of me still hoped that something was wrong. Part of me hoped that maybe, JUST MAYBE, she didn't really like him. I hoped that maybe she didn't want to hurt his feelings and that she didn't really like him. Part of me hoped that maybe she really loved me, and was too sweet to tell Kenny. Who am I kidding though? She obviously likes Kenny. I need to just find someone else. I have to get over Mia. She has someone else, why can't I?
It's a lot easier said than done though. I mean, I keep saying I need to get over Mia. It's not fair though. There is no better girl than Mia. If I find another girl, she can only be second best, and I want the best. I guess it's too late for that. Kenny's got the best girl now. What a lucky guy.
Lilly's yelling at me again. She was saying something along the lines of....
"Michael, you moron, get your butt over here and load up your stuff. Everyone has almost all their stuff loaded already."
That Lilly is just so charming......
~~*Mia's POV*~~
Right now, I'm in the limo(the second one) on my way to the airport. We had ten minutes to say goodbye to everyone after everything was loaded. Grandmere even showed up. Her goodbye wasn't as sweet as everyone else's though. She wasn't sad or crying or bringing a gift. Grandmere, on the other hand just wanted to bring me a list of tasks I must accomplish while in California.
This is great. Even when I'm in on a trip, I still have tasks I have to do. Grandmere gave me pages full of people and places I need to check out when I'm in California. She even gave me details on what to say and do when I meet those people.
I said that I would do THREE interviews, THREE!! She has so many things I have to do though. I won't let it get me down though, because I am going to have fun, whether Grandmere wants me to or not.
My mom, unlike Grandmere, was sad to see me go. She was crying again. She kept saying "My little baby's all grown up and leaving me." Mr. Gianini kept telling her that I would call and that I wouldn't be gone for long. That seemed to calm her down a little bit.
My dad even came to say goodbye. He was a lot more giving than the others though. He gave me some money to blow while I was there, along with a credit card for emergencies. I mean, doesn't he realize that I have Lars for emergencies? It's really nice of him though. Plus, I'm not like Lana, who would say that she had a fashion emergency, and max out the credit card. I'm so much more responsible than that.
Tina's sitting here talking about playing a game to keep us entertained, something like Truth or Dare. I really hope that doesn't happen. I mean, I'm not good with adversities so dares are out. Plus, I really don't want to have to answer questions about my life, when my boyfriend and the love of my life, who ISN'T my boyfriend are around. That would not turn out well.
~~~~~~~ Review please?! I know that this isn't really the greatest. I've been lacking recently. If someone has any pointers on how to improve my story, PLEASE PLEASE let me know. Thanks for reading it. Oh and by the way, Byezerz is just like saying Bye or Talk to Ya Later or I'm outie. That's what I say to my friends. I just say byezerz. So please review! Whether you like my story or not, please let me know. Ok, well thanks for reading. I'll try to update soon. Byezerz! :)
