Chapter 4
Oh My God. Could Marvin get any louder? I really wanted to sleep today. 8:30!! I screamed into my pillow. I got up and took a shower, brushed my teeth, and went to look for something to wear. Some dark flare jeans and a baby blue camisole should do perfectly fine. My hair then went into a messy bun, my glasses were put on my face and my phone was slid into my back pocket.
I went to the kitchen and I saw Alex. Like most days, I ran and jumped on his back. "Hey baby girl, you know you might be getting to old to jump on my back" He said. "Please, me, too old? Never, but what's up big bro?" He put me down on the counter and I could tell what was coming. "Meg, I got a call from Mom and Dad," Yes! I was totally knew he was going to say that. "They won't be home until January 2." My brother said with a sad smile. "You okay?" "Never better," I smiled, "so what's my present this year, a no limit shopping spree?" That's what sucks about my parents, they think they can buy my love so I usually get money. So now whenever I am upset, I hide my emotions and go shopping. Alex nodded. "I got to go babe. I have practice, but I'll talk to you soon, I promise." I said bye and he kissed my head.
Okay so the day isn't even half over yet and it's going horrible. I opened the fridge and got out a water bottle and went to the music room. I really needed to write a song. On my way there I saw Katrina and told her that if anyone came over or called to tell them that I wasn't home.
12pm. Wow. That's a new record for me. It only took 3 ½ hours but I finished a song, it has a melody and everything! I'm so proud of myself. When I have a lot going on in my life it inspires me to write a song, and it's usually a really good one.
(A/N: this song is actually by Avril Lavigne)
Uh-huh,
Life's like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
That's the way it is
'Cause life's like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
That's the way it
is
Chill out,
What you yellin' for?
Lay back,
it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You
will see
I like you the way you are
When we're,
driving in my car
And you're talking to me
One on one
But
you become
Somebody else
'Round everyone else
Watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You're tryin' to
be cool
You look like a fool
To me
Tell me
Why
do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way
you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you
break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty
Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no
You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're
something else
Where you are and
Where you sat, you see
You're making me
Laugh out
When you strike a pose
Take
off all your preppy clothes
You know
You're not fooling
anyone
When you become
Somebody else
'Round
everyone else
Watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
Tryin'
to be cool
You look like a fool
To me
Tell me
Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I
see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me
frustrated
Life's like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty Promise me
I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no...
Chill out,
What you yellin' for?
Lay
back, it's all been done before
And if you could let it be
You
will see
Somebody else
'Round everyone else
You're
watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be
cool
You look like a fool
To me, to me
Why do you
have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's
like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you break and
you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty Promise me
I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no

Okay, so I know that song doesn't really have anything to do with my life, but whatever. It's still good.
I have no idea what I want to do now. It's Thursday so C.J. is working, so is Miley. I don't really feel like hanging with Kimberly or Matt, or Kaity. And it would be weird calling on of the girls from last night seeing as I just met them.
OMG! I know!! I'll go to the orphanage, then somewhere to get food, then to the stables.
Albert took me to the orphanage and I had a ton of fun with the kids. The girls played dress up, the boys played superhero. And all of them had fun when I blasted Radio Disney and we danced. I just got to Starbucks and I got out of the car with Jay.
We got in line and I ordered a hot chocolate and a chocolate chip cookie. (I am like craving chocolate right now). We were waling out when I bumped into someone, I am being somewhat of a klutz today.
"I'm so sorry" I said. "It's okay," He started, "Oh Hey Megan!" I finally looked up from my purse trying to find a pen since I thought I was going to have to sing an autograph to see Nick Jonas. "Nick! Hey!" He asked how I was and I replied "good". "So me and my brothers are going to go Christmas shopping. Would you like to join us?" Nick asked. Crap. I'm going to the fricken stables so I can't. But wait I can't tell him that. No one, and I mean no one but my family knows that I have a horse and I love riding. Come to think about it, no one knows I go to the orphanage either. "I would, but I have plans sorry. How about I make it up to you by spending the day with you tomorrow?" Smooth way to ask a guy out Meg. Real Smooth. "Yeah that sounds Good. How bout I get you're number and I'll call you later?" Wow. Who thought quiet little Nicholas Jonas would be this smooth with girls. "Yeah. I think that could be arranged." I got my sidekick out and handed it to him and he handed me his iPhone. We exchanged numbers and I left to make my way to the stables.
I spent a couple hours riding my horse Mickey, he's such a doll. I also helped my friend Jennifer clean her horse, Minnie's, stall. Yeah, Mickey and Minnie, weird right. Well, me and Jen got our horses on the same exact day, which happened to be the day we first met. And being 11 year olds, we didn't really know what to name a horse.
So, ya wanna know more about Jennifer? Okay, her full name is Jennifer Paola Rodriguez. She is about 5'4" and she has black shoulder length hair and dark brown eyes. She is 100 Mexican and can speak fluent Spanish. Now don't tell Kim, Matt, C.J., Kaity, or Miley, but Jen is my best best best friend in the ENTIRE world. I text her 24/7 and we have so much in common. She's been to my house before, but we usually go to her house, since none of my friends know I ride. I'm not ashamed that I ride, its just not many people picture me, Megan Elizabeth, teen idol, to be a horseback rider. Jen gets it and that's pretty much all I care about. She is always there for me and I tell her EVERYTHING that happens in my life. She is like totally excited about me asking out Nick Jonas.
That's why I love her. She is so supportive and so crazy, but that's what makes her who she is.
By the time I got home, it was 7:30.
I immediately ran upstairs to my room and grabbed the house phone. My phone was almost dead from texting random people all day, okay not random people, mostly Jen.
I called Nick since he called when I was riding.
(Megan, Nick)
Hello?
Hey Nick, It's Megan
Oh Hey Megan Whats Up?
Well I was going to ask you the same thing, seeing as you called me earlier.
Yeah, I was just calling to see what exactly you wanted to do tomorrow.
I see, well I don't really care, I'm up for anything.
Uhm, okay that doesn't make this hard at all.
Well you could choose.
But I don't know. What do you want to do?
Idk what do you want to do?
That went on for about 5 more minutes until we decided to meet up at my house at 10 then we'll figure something out.
We hung up and I was just about to go take a shower, but no.
"MEGAN ELIZABETH JAMES GET YOUR SKINNY LITTLE BUTT DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!!" Crap it's Alex.
I went to the foyer and sure enough there was Alex, Mel, and Mia.
"Mel!!" I ran and hugged her. I haven't seen her in like a week seeing as her and Mia were visiting her parents in Colorado.
"Hey Babe. I've missed you." She said. "You have no idea how much I missed you" I replied. Mel is always there, from major life changing decisions, to what shoes go best with a certain purse. "Well we need to catch up then don't we. How bout girls dinner tomorrow night, just me and you?" "That sounds amazing."
Mia started to cry, so I took her from her daddy and placed her on my hip. "How my baby? Did you have fun seeing Grandma and Grandpa?" she just smiled and giggled. "Wow Meg, you hold her for 2 seconds and you already have her laughing." Alex is such a dork.
I played with Mia for a while probably until 9ish, and then they had to go home. Me and Mel decided on The Ivy at 8 tomorrow night.
After they left I went upstairs and straight to bed, I didn't even take a shower since I was to tired. I fell asleep thinking about what tomorrow would bring.
