Oh things are just starting to get interesting for Arianna. Two new characters are introduced in this chapter, you've met them before but they're here to stay. Anyway I do not own the guys who make up BTR.
I fell asleep that night replaying everything in my head. Everything from Kendall telling my grandmother he was dating me to kissing me in the Kissing Tower to the concert. I gazed out the window with a smile on my face thinking about the kiss. It was something I would certainly never want to forget. A summer breeze blew through the window making the curtains dance. I heard footsteps of my father in the hallway double checking that everyone was where they should be. Staci was already asleep in the twin mattress lying next to mine. I slowed my breathing to match hers and drifted off into a deep slumber.
I woke the next morning to something wet nudging my face and the door cracked open. Peanut Staci's miniature bull terrier was watching me like nobody's business.
"Sorry Ari, Peanut can't control herself. She's happy to be coming to California," Staci said rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"I almost forgot about that. Did I tell you that Kendall kissed me yesterday and it was the most amazing things in the entire world," I said running my hand through the dog's fur.
"I believe someone told me. I'm not sure if it was you or not, but somebody did tell me. It was probably Logan the bestest boyfriend I've ever had. I should probably go wake him up since we're leaving soon."
"Yeah not something I'd want to do. He freaked yesterday when James woke him up yelling," I said. "I'm going to start packing."
"You're boyfriend's walking down the hallway," Staci said walking out the door.
Kendall walked into the bedroom just like Staci said he would. The floor creaked as he headed toward me. I watched him look around the room and waited for him to say something. Kendall's eyes stopped at the Cole Hamels autographed photo on my nightstand and picked it up.
"I don't see why this guy is so hot," he said making air quotes around hot. "All I see is an over glorified baseball pitcher in pinstripe pants. Big deal."
"You see Kendall you have a penis and are not gay, since you kissed me and are now currently my boyfriend, so you would not like another person with a penis. I just think he's very good-looking."
"Where does that leave me the one with a penis?"
"Let's see, Cole is very high on that list and you are too but one is higher than the other. I just don't want to tell you, it's more fun letting you keep guessing."
"I could help you with your packing if you want me too. My bag is already in the van. I swear I will not touch your underwear."
"No you just want to see them. Wait a minute you do want to touch them, too, you little liar," I said throwing a pair of underwear at him from my dresser. I was shocked when he caught them and threw t them in the suitcase like they carried a disease.
"Now that was cheating Arianna," Kendall said giving me a hug. "I don't think I want to kiss you now and I really wanted to."
"Well that sucks for you doesn't it," I said running my hand down his arm. "It was just underwear you wear them too. Clean ones at that. Now wipe that frown off y our face mister and help me get ready. Please."
"Only because you said please," Kendall said releasing me and taking a step back. He nearly tripped over Peanut causing me to laugh.
"You almost killed Peanut." I leaned over and picked up the black and white dog. "Staci would not be happy with you if you did."
"You're taking a dog on the plane?"
"Yeah. We're taking a private jet home. My dad is looking to buy it so he wants to take a test drive. I'll never understand the strange ways of my family. They always have to buy something new and expensive to better someone else. It's like this big contest or something. Staci and I think it's pretty funny." I put Peanut down and watched Kendall's facial expression.
"I don't get it your family seems so plain and simple but you have all these luxuries; mansions, stables, airplanes. It's strange if you ask me," Kendall said leaning in for a kiss. "But I don't think I would like you so much if you weren't unique. I like that you're not like any other girl in Hollywood."
"Is that a good or a bad thing?"
"I think it's a good thing. It's awesome that you don't brag about your fame. It's pretty annoying when people do it."
"Oh didn't I tell you how famous I am," I joked and grabbed my suitcases. "Now come on we're leaving soon."
"I'll carry your bags. Mine are already downstairs," Kendall said reaching for my two suitcases.
"But I already have them."
"I was just trying to be nice and not look like a complete jerk for not helping you."
"Fine take this one. If you're going to be a baby about it," I said handing him the bag. "Thank you."
I watched the trees blowing in the wind as my dad drove the van down our long driveway. The house wouldn't look the same when I returned home. The horses would no longer be grazing in the pastures welcoming me to my childhood home. Everything that belongs to me that's here in Pennsylvania will be in California before I even know they left that house. I recalled running through the pastures with Staci playing princesses when we were young. I've had plenty of memories at this house but it's no longer home. Home is in California where I can't walk down the street without people calling my name. Home has palm breezes and ocean breezes, not pines and maples. Most of all home is where my new best friends and my future are. Of course I could always come back here to visit but it will never truly be the same as what I remember it.
My dad smiled when we pulled up to the airport and his plane was sitting there ready for us to board. It was nice to see him happy again. I guess all he needed to get over his depression was to buy something big and expensive. It was a nice plane; I could see why he was so excited about it. I was excited about it two until I saw Dawn and Amy the awful bitchy twins.
"What the fuck are they doing here," Staci shouted in disgust.
"Just shoot me now. Please end my misery please. I so do not want to get on a plane with those sluts," I sighed.
"Would the two of you stop your whining? They can't be that bad," Carlos said.
"Oh they are that bad, Carlos. I hate to say it but they are that bad. Their main goal is to destroy Arianna's life. They cannot stand the fact that she is famous. They also hate me since Arianna chose me as her favorite cousin and not one of them. But whatever their just a bunch of whorebags," Staci said.
"I just want to let you know they are not staying in MY HOUSE," I shouted at my dad. I was so furious that Amy and Dawn were going back to California with us. There goes my freedom from them right down the toilet. "I'll burn it down before they move in there."
"We're staying in an apartment. There's no way we'd live with a bitch like you," Dawn shouted of the roar of the engines.
"Girls stop fighting and get in the plane," my dad yelled glaring at me the entire time. "Or you'll stay here."
"Can I just shove them out of the plane?" I asked Staci who nodded.
Staci stopped the guys before they got on the plane. "Talk to them and you're dead to me. Especially you Logan."
"Staci, I love you and only you. You know that. I don't think I could ever like those two anyway," Logan said kissing her on the cheek. He took her hand and they walked on to the plane.
"Can I talk to them to call them a bunch of jerks? I don't like them talking to my best friend like that. I'm sorry Arianna," Carlos said giving me a hug that nearly knocked me over.
"You're my best friend too Carlos. But insulting them will only make it worse. So just ignore them. They won't' last long in California."
"Good I don't like you angry," Kendall said kissing me. "I just thought you might want to piss them off one more time before you go on your 'I'm ignoring you' streak."
"You're good Kendall really good," I told him walking onto the plane and sitting toward the back. "But I won't be ignoring you. Unless I'm napping then I won't be talking to you."
"I hope you don't snore. That would be a major turn off. I don't think we can write with you snoring. This may also keep you awake," Kendall said opening his guitar case.
"Yeah snoring would be a distraction," Logan said flipping through his notebook.
I watch the guys sit around Kendall singing, writing, and having fun together. It was pretty crazy that they chose a plane ride to sit and write songs together. I had to admit it was going alone very well, at least from what I could hear. I on the other hand was going over my script for the sequel to the hit movie that made me more famous than I could possibly imagine. Too bad I had to tell the guys I wouldn't be working on Big Time Rush with them anymore. The big problem with filming a movie on location in London, I would be leaving my best friends behind for three months. I could sense someone was reading the script over my shoulder and turned around to see Amy.
"See anything interesting," I said through my teeth.
"Oh sorry Arianna, I'm just so bored. Dawn is being a major bitch and I'm just sick and tired of being mean to you. I only do it because she is too and I can't have my sister hating me. Oh please forgive me," Amy said getting up and sitting beside me.
"Amy, you don't have to do anything that you don't want to. I mean who cares if Dawn hates you. To tell you the truth I always had a feeling Dawn was pressuring you to be someone you're not. Amy I don't think I even know the real you. You probably have this amazing personality underneath that bitterness Dawn has lead you to believe is the real you."
"Arianna you are so sweet. I feel awful for being so nasty to you. If anything I hope you forgive me for being a major asshole to you." Amy said giving me a hug.
"Its fine I wasn't exactly the nicest person either so just call it even. But you should be apologizing to Staci she took all of this the hardest."
"Thank you Arianna. I'll go talk to her now."
It was outlandish for Amy to be so sympathetic. But how should I know Amy on a regular basis, she was always with her sister. I don't think her own parents knew who Amy is on the inside. Now that I think about it it's rather depressing that she lets her twin rule her life. I watched as the redhead apologized to Staci. It was truly a genuine apology I could see it in her eyes as she pleaded with the darker haired girl. Then I turned to look at the boys, James ripped the notebook out of Carlos's hands and threw it on the ground. Apparently he wasn't too fond of the song. I walked back to where they were, picked up the notebook, and sat by Kendall. We were somewhere over Missouri so I knew I had time to help tweak their song into something that was decent. I read over the lyrics quickly and didn't see anything wrong with it. I laughed and handed the notebook back to Carlos to let them continue writing.
Please review. I hope you're enjoying reading this story. Thank you so much for reading it.
