Title: California, Here We Come

Rating: PG to be safe, but most likely G

Summary: On the way to Cali……..

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.

A/N: Please everyone let me know if you want me to make each person's POV longer or if you like it how it is???? Please let me know so I can make changes if necessary…

Mia's POV

Oh no! What am I supposed to do? I can't lie. I'm sure my nostrils will flare, and I don't know if anyone knows about that. But I can't tell the truth. I can't say Michael.

"Ummm……"

Everyone's eyes are boring into me. My cheeks begin to redden. I glance at Michael to see if he is paying attention and he is. As soon as I look at him, he blushes. Dang it! I was caught. Then I look at Lilly. She DEFINITELY caught me looking at Michael. I could see this evil grin on her face. Grrrrrr Lilly!!!

And then I was saved. I looked out the window, and thankfully, we were at the airport!

"Oh look! I can't believe we're here already!!!" I said as we pulled into the airport and I quickly hopped out of the limo. I could tell everyone was staring at me, but oh well, I had to get out of there.

Kenny walked up to me. "Mia, what was that? I mean, wouldn't you want to be with me?"

I looked at him. Oh no. What was I going to say. Luckily, Tina heard the whole thing.

"Come on, Mia. We have to get our bags. We can't be late. You want to go to California, don't you?" she said, saving me.

"I'm coming, Tina!" I said gladly rushing out of there as I mouthed her a 'thank you'.

Then, I went to get my bags. I was about to grab it when my hero, Michael, came up to me and tried to take it.

"Here, let me get that for you," he said smiling that gorgeous smile of his.

"Oh, no Michael, it's ok. I mean I wouldn't want to make you carry that. I mean you already have all of your stuff."

"Nah, its alright," he said.

Could Michael BE any more PERFECT?! I don't think that's possible!!

"Well ok…." I said.

He started to grab it when Kenny came up.

"No, that's alright, Michael. I'll get it," he said trying to take it also.

"Nah, my stuff isn't that heavy. I don't mind." he said also trying to take it again.

"Well, she is MY girlfriend," Kenny said insisting on him getting it.

"But she is MY friend and my sister's best friend." Michael said.

"Well, I've kissed her!" Kenny said. Michael then stopped, and Kenny smiled triumphantly.

"Hmph. I was just trying to be nice." Michael mumbled.

"Oh my gosh! Knock it off, you two! Would you PLEAE quit fighting over Mia!" Lilly said, staring at the two like they were pathetic.

Michael blushed. Poor Guy! I wish Lilly would stop embarrassing him by making up all these weird unrealistic ideas of hers!

"Oh, no they're not fighting over me. I mean, they were just trying to help. I mean I'm sure they weren't fighting over me. I mean Michael doesn't even like me. He just wanted to help and Kenny, being my boyfriend and all, wanted to help too and I mean I'm sure they're not fighting over me……" I said rambling on.

Lilly rolled her eyes.

"Listen, I'm sure either Mia can get her own stuff or Lars can get it!" Lilly said shouting and both of the boys jumped back.

Tina giggled.

I'm sure they weren't fighting over me. I mean, Michael doesn't even like me! He was just trying to be nice. I mean he even said it, you know. "She's my sister's best friend." But at least he called me his friend. That's a start!!!

Lars walked over and grabbed my luggage, but not without smirking first. I almost thought I saw him wink and nudge at Michael, but I'm sure it HAD to be my imagination.

"Oh, I can get that, Lars," I said turning to him.

"It's ok, it's my job princess," he said looking down at me.

"Oh ok, and Lars, it's ok to call me Mia," I said smiling at my awesome bodyguard.

"Ok Pr…I mean Mia," he said walking ahead toward the airport.

Finally, we were all in the airport and we were getting inspected. It took forever. They had to go through everything. I mean, after the September 11 attacks, they were so precautious but I mean, I'm glad. I sure don't want to be shot down by any terrorists, that's for sure.

Finally, after a long long while, we were heading into the private jet. It was going to be one long ride. I wonder who I'll sit by. Do we choose? Oh, I hope I don't end up by Kenny or Boris. No, I did NOT just think that! I mean that was so wrong! Kenny is my boyfriend! Shouldn't I WANT to sit by him?! But no, my mind is full of thoughts of a guy I know I can't have and I KNOW doesn't want me!!! I'm so glad Kenny couldn't read my thoughts. He'd be heartbroken and I'd be boyfriendless. But of course, I'm just a hopeless romantic when it comes to Michael. I just can't help it.

No Way! Did I mention how much I love this jet?!! No? Well now I did! I LOVE IT! It's all red velvety seats. There are lights above the windows. There's tons of food. The seats are so comfortable. There's a big screen and get this, they're playing STAR WARS!! I mean could it get any more perfect? Oh yes, yes my friend, it can!! How? Because I'M SITTING BY MICHAEL!!!

How? Well ok….We're getting into this jet right? And I walk in and Kenny grabs my arm and is like sit by me. Of course, I HAD to say yes. I mean he IS my BOYFRIEND. No matter how many times I wish Michael was my boyfriend instead, it's not changing who my boyfriend actually is. And my boyfriend is STILL Kenny! Ok, right..anyway, the thing with Michael.

Well, so Kenny and I went to sit down and I started to head toward the window seat. Well, Kenny, I guess is claustrophobic and he wanted the window seat. Which, to me doesn't make much sense. I mean you'd think he'd want the aisle right? Because there's more room. Well, no I guess he said looking out the window would keep him from getting sick. And that's NOT what I wanted. But I REALLY wanted to sit by the window. I mean I wanted to see the view. So our conversation went a little like this…

"Well, Kenny, I really wanted to sit by the window to see the view," I tried to say politely.

"Oh, well um I guess that would be ok. I'll just try to close my eyes, or I could just stare at you. I mean how could I get sick if I'm staring at something so beautiful?" Kenny said smiling.

Oh man! I'm such a horrible girlfriend. Look how sweet Kenny is and I always just think about Michael. Kenny was even willing to get sick for me. And I hardly give him the time of day.

"Oh, gag me," Lilly said and then I saw Michael roll his eyes and Tina giggle.

"No, I wouldn't want you to get sick. I guess I could just sit in the aisle," I said starting to move toward the aisle seat.

"No, Mia, I want you to have the seat that you want. I'll just sit here," he said starting to sit in the aisle.

I turned around. I saw that Lilly and Boris had already sat down next to one another. Also, Lars and Wahim sat together in the back. That left Tina and Michael.

"Well I want to sit in the aisle," Michael said. "I'm bigger. I don't want to be crammed near the window."

"Yeah, but I'm going to read. What if I feel motion sickness and need to go to the restroom? Plus, I'm a girl. I need to take breaks more often," she said trying to explain her reasons to Michael.

Well it turned out that Tina had heard our conversation too.

"Hey Kenny," Tina said.

Kenny stood up and turned around.

"Yeah?"

"Well since you want a window seat and I want an aisle seat, why don't you sit with me? And then Michael could sit in the aisle by Mia?" she asked with a sweet smile while Michael smiled, but as soon as I saw him, he quit smiling and looked away.

"Well, I don't know. I mean, I'm fine here." he replied, giving Michael a strange look.

"No you're not. You don't want to get sick now, do you?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well, why can't you sit by Mia and I'll sit by Michael. It would still work that way," he replied, smiling triumphantly and glowering it over Michael.

"Well, because I'm already in the back row and I don't want to move. Plus, I mean it's not a big deal. I mean you trust Mia, don't you?" she asked, trying to be all innocent about it.

"Well of course I do. I mean, why shouldn't I?" he said when he saw me looking at him.

"Well then, it's settled," Tina said. She let Kenny in the window seat behind us, and then she hopped into the aisle seat.

Tina is such a good friend. I mean she would give up sitting by a gorgeous guy just so that I could sit my Michael. Well not exactly MY Michael, but he should be. Anyway, what would I do without her?

So that's how I ended up by Michael. And here we are.

It's Michael and me in the front row to the right. Then Lilly and Boris in the front row to the left. Behind us is Tina and Kenny and to the left of them is Lars and Wahim.

Michael and I are sitting here quoting all of our favorite lines from Star Wars and cracking up. I turned around to ask Tina something and I saw Kenny shooting daggers at Michael's head. I felt bad for a minute, but then Michael said something and gained my attention once again. Yes! This is going to be one fun ride!!!

So We're Off!!!! California, Here We Come!!!
