Here is the next chapter. Düsseldorf. It's pretty short.
They didn't even wait for me to shut the door before they attacked.
After answering all of their questions I fell asleep.
The next morning we went through our normal routine, got on the plane, then landed in Düsseldorf by 11 AM.
We started walking to the hotel in relative silence. About halfway there, someone spoke up.
"So what are we doing here?" Tristan asked.
"I have no idea. Mom just wanted to come since it was mentioned in
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." I reported.
"Since I chose the destination, I want to choose what we do. I know exactly what that is!" Mom said proudly.
"What did you plan?" I asked cautiously.
"A full day of candy. We buy a bunch of candy. Go around sampling and such, then bring it all back to Hotel and watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory!" She said with a wide grin.
"Again?" Jason asked.
"Yes again. But this time with nothing but candy." She confirmed.
"Sounds fun!" Katie exclaimed.
"Not to mention unhealthy! Tristan commented, getting glares from the women.
"That's what makes it so much fun!" I laughed.
"So let's go to the hotel to put our stuff down." Jason said as he led the way.
We got into the suite, more like fell into. Tristan tripped from the back and it created a domino effect.
"What in the world made you do that?" Katie demanded.
"I tripped!" He used as his excuse.
We all got up and set our things down.
"Ok let's find a candy store. We have to be back by 8!" Mom pointed out as she walked out the door.
"Found one!" Katie yelled pointing at Kandy Kitchen (if this is a real place I don't own it).
"Candy!" Mom yelled when she ran into the store. We all laughed at how child like she acted at times.
"Gummy Worms!" She yelled across the room.
Katie and Jason went exploring. Tristan and I followed suit.
"Jelly Beans!" I heard Katie shriek.
"M&Ms!" I squealed. We went on and on forever.
""Reese's Pieces!"
"Gummy Sharks!"
"Butterfingers!"
"York Patties!"
"3 Musketeers!"
"Milky Way!"
"Chocolate covered espresso beans!"
"Truffles!"
"Chocolate Almonds!"
"Taffy!"
"Rock Candy!"
"Fudge!"
After looking through the whole store I ordered.
"We would like 5 of all the individual wrapped candies in the store. All of them!" I specified. "Then 1 pound of Chocolate Almonds -
Dark and Milk, Truffles - Dark and Milk, Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans, Jelly Beans, Assorted, Taffy, Gummy Worms, Gummy Sharks and Rocky Road Fudge." I finished all in one breath.
"You're joking!" The man behind the counter laughed.
"No I'm not. I want all of that." I said, the look on my face being quite serious.
He stopped laughing and nodded.
He brought all the items out, in five large bags.
"That will be $200." He told me.
I put my hand behind my back and Tristan handed me his Platinum Visa.
I handed it to the man. I turned to Tristan and smiled.
"I just handed my credit card to my girlfriend to pay for $200 worth of candy. What is the world coming to?" He muttered to himself joking.
We laughed. I stopped when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned to see the old man holding out the card. I took it and gave it to Tristan.
Then I took the bags and handed them to the guys.
We walked back to the hotel. It was already 2pm. We dropped the things in the fridge to cool for a while.
We sat down at the table and talked for about an hour.
"What are your summer plans?" Mom asked looking around the table.
"Nothing. Except prepare for college." Tristan started, with a shrug.
We all muttered our agreement.
"Ok it's time to set up for the movie!" Mom announced.
We gathered the candy and put it in bowls, and set them all out on the coffee table. Then we put in the movie and at 3:30 we started.
We ate, we laughed, we sang. We did everything there was to do on a movie night. At 5:30 the movie ended and we all passed out from the sugar rush.
Five hours later we all woke up.
"We're late!" I yelled.
We hopped up and got our things together and headed down to the airport.
"Flight 878 now boarding." The announcer called.
Normal POV
The group quickly ran through the airport, barely making their flight.
They each boarded the plane that would take them back to their pasts, futures, regrets, and fears. Away from the perfect vacation. They all wondered what would happen when they got back. For now they all wanted the same thing. Sleep.
There we go Chapter 11 down. 1 more to go. Hope you liked it. Review please.
