Getting There
I laid wide awake in my bed. I has been 20 minutes since Kevin and Jade had left. I checked my phone. 11:48 PM. Great. I thought. I sighed and decided to text Melody. I lived in Las Aneles, so she should be awake all the way in New Jersey, New York.
Hey cus.
I texted her.
Hey Y/N! Why are you still awake?
Melody sent.
Just can't sleep I guess. How's life?
I asked.
Could be better if you weren't moving in.
She texted sarcastically. I snarled to myself while reading t.
I see how it is. After how many years not seeing each other and this is how I am being welcomed.
I sent back.
Watch your attitude! And be nice around Jake and my kids.
She warned.
Yah, yah. I know. Now good night!
I sent back in anger.
Ok then. You need it. And see you in a couple days.
I huffed and turned off my phone. I put it on top of my nightstand. I sighed and got up. I will probably leave around dinner if I had a guess. I decided to pack my things until I felt tired.
After a more than 25 minutes, I had folded and packed all of my clothes into my suitcase and I was not rampaging through my other things, packing the things I needed. After what felt like about 5 minutes, I was looking through my closet when I found a picture. I took it out of the closet and tears began to form as I looked at it.
"I miss you, Buckie." I sobbed as I looked at the picture of me and my old F/B (Favorite Breed) dog when I was 4 years old. The picture was taken at this old pizzaria called... oh what was it's name again? Right, 'Freddy Fazbear's Pizza'. That place gave me the creeps. I never really liked robots, they scared me.
"I remember having a nightmare about those robots once." I said, tears still streaming from my eyes. I whipped the tears and packed the picture. I ended up keeping my charger, clothes, the picture, my diary, my guitar, and a CD I got at a concert. I trashed everything else. I still didn't feel tired, so I grabbed my phone and played some Minecraft. As I was playing, I slowly started to drift off to sleep.
"Y/N! Wake up! You need to eat!" My mom called, making me jump up with shock. I groaned and checked my phone. 8:50 AM. I rolled my eyes and got up, changed, brushed my teeth, rushed my hair, and walked to the kitchen.
"How you feeling, hun?" My dad asked. He was helping mom set out plates.
"Meh." I said I sat down and grabbed the butter and a knife. Before I could get some butter onto my pancakes, my mom stopped me.
"How about whip cream and strawberry jam?" She suggested. I nodded and she did it for me.
"There you go!" She said cheerfully as I sat down and cut a piece out of the pancake. I took a bite of it. It was delicious, as always.
"MMmmm." I mumbled while cutting another piece out.
"Good, eh?" My dad smiled. I nodded and finished my pancake. When I was done, I made myself a cup of coffee.
"So, you know you're leaving at 11:00, right?" I looked up at my mom and sipped my coffee. When I took a decent sized drink of it, I set it down on the table.
"No. But it makes sense. Am I taking a plane or car?" I asked.
"Plane. Kevin and Jade gave us just enough money for it." My mom said. I nodded and took my coffee into my room and drank it. When I was done, I got out my phone and looked how long the ride would be. Hm, 5 hours and 20 minutes. Not that bad. Better than driving. I thought. I then wondered if the plane was gonna leave at 11 or if I had to. I got up and walked to the living room.
"Hurry up! Plane leaves at 11:30!" My mom shouted. I checked the time and realized it was already 9:46 and it took about an hour to get there.
"SHOOT!" I exclaimed as I rushed into the bathroom, took a 5 minutes shower, got dressed, and bolted out the door. I ran past one of the neighbor's daughter with my luggage and dashed into the car. I backed out of the driveway and drove as fast as I could, of course obeying the speed limit, to the Air Port.
About an hour later, I got to the building, parked my car, jumped out of the drivers seat, unlocked the back and got my luggage. I started to swiftly walk to the doors, pulling out my phone, checking the time. 11:16. I started to panic and made a mad dash for the entrance. Ittook me about 8 minutes to get my luggage into in the right place. I looked at the ticket my mom had given me and swiftly headed over to the boarding dock. I ran up to the women and gave her my ticket. She nodded and gave me another ticket that had a seat number.
"I'd hurry if I where you." She said, shrugging. I huffed and hauled myself into the long tunnel leading into the plane. When got inside, I immediately looked for sat G14. When I found it, I was glad to see that I was the only one sitting there and it was a window seat. I pulled out my phone and turned on Air Plane Mode and started watching YouTube.
"Passengers, welcome aboard. We are heading for West New York, New Jersey. Have a safe flight, we will be leaving shortly." The PIlate said over the intercom. A lady walked down my isle with a cart of drinks and snacks. I haven't eaten lunch yet. I thought. I signaled to the women that I wanted something.
"What would you like?" She asked. I looked at the snacks and drinks.
"Water and crackers." I decided. The women gave me a 'are you sure' glance before shrugging it off and handing me what I wanted.
"Thank you, miss." I said as she nodded and moved on. I pulled out my headphones and played my playlist and watched out the window as we started to take off. Munched on some crackers while listening to Monster by Skillet. Half way through the song, I got annoyed by something and switched the song to Relate by For King and Country. I need more upbeat things right now. I thought as it played.
Has life hit you so hard that you've been knocked down?
Have you gone too far to find the middle ground?
Did they raise you so high just to pull you back down?
Have you been so lost you could never be found?'Cause I've been real, I've been fake
Been a sinner, been a saint
I've been right, I've been so, so wrong
Yeah, I've made my mistakesI don't know what it's like to be you
You don't know what it's like to be me
What if we're all the same in different kinds of ways
Can you, can you relate?We both know what it's like to be hurt
We both know what it's like to feel pain
But I think it's safe to say we're on to better days
Can you, can you relate?Can you relate?Have you ever been left when you shoulda been loved?
Has there ever been a time when you stayed but you should've run?'Cause I've been real, I've been fake
Been a sinner, been a saint
I've been right, I've been so, so wrong
Yeah, I've made my mistakesNow, I don't know what it's like to be you
You don't know what it's like to be me
What if we're all the same in different kinds of ways
Can you, can you relate?We both know what it's like to be hurt
We both know what it's like to feel pain
But I think it's safe to say we're on to better days
Can you, can you relate?Can you relate?
Can you relate?
Can you relate?I don't know what it's like to be you
You don't know what it's like to be me
But by the grace of God, we'll see each other's heart
Can you, can you relate?
Then the next song played, Look Up Child by Lauren Daigle.
Where are You now
When darkness seems to win?
Where are You now
When the world is crumbling?Oh I, I-I-I, I hear You say
I hear You sayLook up child, ayy
Look up child, ayyWhere are You now (where are You?)
When all I feel is doubt?
Oh, where are You now
When I can't figure it out?Oh I, I-I-I, I hear You say
I hear You sayLook up child, ayy
Look up child, ayy
Look up child, ayy
Look up child, ayy
Look upYou're not threatened by the war
You're not shaken by the storm
I know You're in control
Even in our suffering
Even when it can't be seen
I know You're in controlOh I, I-I-I, I hear You say
I hear You sayLook up child, ayy
Look up child, ayy
Look up child, oh-oh-oooh
I hear You say, You say, You say
Look up child, ayy
I hear You say, You say, You say (look up, look up, look up, look up)
Look up child, oh-ooh, ooh, oh-oooh
I hear You say, You say, You say
Look up child, ayy
I hear You say, You say, You say (look up, look up, look up, look up)
Look up child
(I hear You say, You say, You say)
I hear You, I hear You calling my name, oh (Look up child, ayy)
I hear You say, You say, You say (look up, look up)
Look up child, ayy
Look up child, ayy
Look up
I started to drift off to sleep as You Should Probably Leave by Chris Stapleton played.
"We have arrived at our destination, please wait to leave until I dismiss you." The voice on the intercom woke me up. I rubbed off the sleep in my eyes and saw that it just now getting to be sunrise. I saw the Pilate opening the door to exit the Air Plane.
"You may now proceed to exit the plane. Your luggage will be inside the unloading dock." He shouted over the voices. I sighed and pulled myself up and walked out. I went down the long hallway until I walked into the large open, and cramped with people, room. I walked down to the unloading dock and grabbed my suitcase. I then walked out of the Air Port. Great. Now I'm going to have to either walk, or rent a car. Maybe ride the bus? I thought while rolling my eyes. I'll walk, it's good for the heart. I said as I started my trip over to Melody's home.
