Chapter 4 – Topic of Discussion

Kari POV:

I couldn't stop myself from thinking about the way Tom looked at me. The girls weren't saying anything yet, but I could feel them anxiously waiting to pounce on me with a load of questions. We waited outside our room while Taylor went back to get our key.

Taylor, Jaymie, Julia, and I had maybe the longest flight ever. Well, for me because this was my first time on a plane. Surprisingly, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

"Room 513." Taylor said as she ran to the front of the door. She slid her card in a slot next to the doorknob, and the lock became unlocked. Julia slowly turned the doorknob, trying to create a dramatic effect, and opened it. Jaymie's eyes widened.

"Oh my gosh! It's huge!" She exclaimed.

The walls were a pale green color and the brown curtains on the window matched it well. There were only three beds, but the bed sheets were very neat and clean.

I ran to the bed by the window and yelled, "I get this bed!"

When the girls realized that there were two unclaimed beds left, they all ran for them. Jaymie got to her bed and Taylor and Julia landed on the one farthest from the window.

"I call this one!" they both said at the same time.

"I guess one person is going on the sofa." I teased.

"Kari. Don't change the subject…we were meaning to ask you." Julia said. I knew it!

"Okay. So did Tom, thee Tom Kaulitz, the one and only single most hottest guy in the world, just try to flirt with you?"

All of them were looking at me as if I was going to answer right away. I said the simplest thing that popped in my mind, "No." Here it goes! They exploded with questions and comments, asking me all at once.

"You're lying aren't you?"

"You were totally checking him out!"

"He seemed interested in you!"

"Dang! He was so hot!"

"What happened?"

"You're so lucky!"

"Guys!" I yelled. "There's nothing wrong with a guy asking for my name alright?"

"Nah," Jaymie said sarcastically. "There's nothing wrong with Tom Kaulitz asking for your name huh?

"Don't be offended if I tell you this okay?" Taylor said. "You better be careful around him. You know how he's a playboy."

"Taylor, do you really think I would do that?" I said. She seemed worried so I assured her, "Under all circumstances, I will not do what I don't want to do."

Suddenly, Taylor's cell phone rang. "Hello?" She answered. "Hey, mom…what? You can't make it? Really? Okay. Trust me…see you."

"What was that about?" Julia asked.

"Okay. So my mom had a sudden change of plans and she won't be able to be here. At all! Kari! Your sister is going to have her baby! My mom's going to deliver, so we get to stay here by ourselves and do what we want! Oh, but the thing is, you guys have to call and let your parents know."

"Aww!" Jaymie groaned.

I felt the same way. I didn't know if my dad was going to make me go back, though I did want to see Angela's baby. "You know what," I said, "let's go chill in the pool for a while first." I should enjoy this in case my parents make me go back to the U.S.
