All known stuff belongs to their actual owners
Chapter 5
The following day, the four of us were so knackered that we slept through practically the whole thing, waking up late at night, when we discovered that Mandy had been driving the van the whole day, and we'd travelled a few more hundred miles. Not too many in one day, mind, because we all got travelsick, and we wanted to take our time anyway.
When we had all (finally) woken up, we decided to watch more films, because we had planned a two week trip in the van, then we would get to Forks and meet the Cullens! I was so excited. Besides, Mandy was the only one who could drive, so because she was sleeping, we were stuck there anyway, unless we wanted to crash and die. Which we didn't.
It was about eleven at night, and Mandy was asleep in the living 'room' section, so I got my laptop out, and I picked out a few DVDs for us to watch, Wild Child, Twilight, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Ice Age 3, Death Becomes Her and Hot Fuzz. That would be enough, and it was an interesting choice to say the least, but we all liked that sorta thing. Well, Hot Fuzz and Death Becomes Her were ones that only I had seen, but I knew that Anita, Jess and Lolly would like.
I was 100% correct. I really had taken the right films with me to America, and I was sure that we would have a good time watching and rewatching all the films I had with me.
When it got to about noon, Mandy stopped the van at a drive thru for us to have lunch on the go. We each had 2 large fries, 1 medium fries and a McFlurry. Seriously. We were hungry, and McDonalds' food portions are insanely small, and a large is more like a miniature.
Anyway, enough about fries/chips, we also bought some new games, music and DVDs that day, as we had each bought a Nintendo DS with us, it was so cool though! I bought the Paramore CD, because I'd heard them on the radio a lot, and I loved ignorance and brick by boring brick. I also bought another pile of CDs, and a whole new suitcase-worth of DVDs. Plus about 2 games. I still had money left, though I would need to rely on Lolly and her Philadelphia bagels for a while. Unless someone else bought me food, but that was just as likely as... something... so I was really unsure of what to do...
We got back on the van after our visit to the shops and messed around with our new stuff. We definitely weren't missing England. Lolly was missing her friends, Jess was missing her best friend Jess and her year 8 and 9 friends. I only really had my dog to miss. My precious little Jack Russell Terrier, JJ (short for Jake). He must have been missing me so much, he always gets depressed if someone's not there, always, and he was probably missing me babying him. I missed him just as much.
Mandy drove the van for another 2 hours, and she stopped the van for the night again. We four teenagers (excluding Mandy, who was about 30) were very tired from our lack of sleep. Not that it mattered. We would sleep whenever we pleased, it's not like we could go to school on our road trip.
We all drifted straight off, the second we made contact with our pillows, that night. As I mentioned, we were shattered, and a good night's sleep was more than necessary. I didn't even watch a film in bed that night, I was that tired. (I watch films in bed because I'm a little scared of the dark, and a film in bed seems to calm me down a lot, so it's very unusual for me not to watch a film.
My dreams that night were plagued with thoughts of the Cullens. Would they like us? Would they let us live with them? Only time would tell.
