Chapter 12
I have one earphone from my IPod in my car and the other is in Seth’s sat by me and is playing random music as I kind of listen to the guys conversation, but it’s pretty uninteresting.
A small crowd of teenagers come over to our section and sit at some seats a few meters away from us and that are facing towards us are talking amongst themselves.
“Ugh, Lex move off a bit. My legs are going numb.” Blake groans.
I chuckle and slid off and onto his seat as he moves to the one along.
Ding, dong “Attention passengers waiting to board the one o’clock flight 10 to South Carolina will be delayed for about an hour….” A voice over the intercom speaks before repeating it.
I groan slouching in the chair. An extra damn hour.
Finally after what felt like hours, but was probably just over an hour, our plan has arrived and we are queueing up in order to get onto the plane.
Getting onto the plan is an experience, first class makes it more exciting and I’m thankful as we can now have extra
room. I sit by the window, with Seth and Blake sitting along the same row. Then Joe, Jack and Ashton in front of us, Tom, Cory and Mom in front of them then Lee, Leon behind us and Chris and Evan behind them and we’re all ready for the four or five hour flight.
The other seats soon filled up with other passengers and I looked out the window. bye bye home, bye–bye dad.
Finally the plane started to take off flying higher and higher up into the sky, the view of the city below looking very pretty with the lights starting to turn on due to the darkening sky.
I sigh quietly, slipping my headphones in as get ready to sit out this long flight.
*****FIVE HOURS LATER*:
Finally we have arrived! God…I don’t think I could last one more minute on that plane. It’s not the actual flight…no, it was my loud, embarrassing brothers. They wouldn’t stop talking, poking, and annoying me.
Now we’re in the airport trying to get to the entrance where a car will be waiting for us. I say trying because there are so many people here and everyone’s moaning that they are tired and hungry. Well it is very late I think…so I guess they have a point.
We squeeze through the exit and mom leads us towards. A shiny black seven seat jeep. Oh posh.
Apparently all are things will travel to the house in another vehicle so we all cram into the jeeps. Again us older ones are in a jeep, Chris, Blake, Evan, Seth, Me, Leon, Lee are in one and mom, Aston, Cory, Joe, Jack and Tom are in the other one.

Chapter 12
I find myself getting tired and my head drops onto Seth’s shoulder who’s next to me and my eyes close as I drift to sleep, luckily mostly everyone else is feeling the same way so it’s not so nosy in here.
Someone pushes me “Lexiii…wakey,wakey!” comes Evan’s sing–song voice as he shoves me shoulder.
I frown and open my eyes “We’re here.” Evan smiles and I glare at him for waking me up but sit up from Seth and climb out the jeep like everyone else has.
“Kids…come on!” Mom calls and I look up to see…wow. A massive house. No, no house…it’s more a mansion.
“Holy hell…” I say wide eyed as I look up past the gates that are in front of us to a pale coloured building.
“Oh gosh Mom, seriously we living there?” Chris
says.
Mom smiles “Yep” she says “Go on, go chose your rooms” She says as she opens tall gates open “Oh and the twins can share!” She says as we push our way through the gates that are opening slowly
We push through the opening and start running up the long drive towards the big house. It has stairs curving up to the front door, left and right and loads of windows.
Rushing up the steps to the front door and barge through, suddenly stopping. Wow it’s awesome in side. A big stair case to the left, going up to the next floor, straight ahead an archway going into a massive kitchen. To the right the living room…oh my it’s amazing.
As the guys are stood their staring I take this to race up the stairs first having first pick of the rooms, “Haha…bagsy the biggest!” I shout as I reach the top and hear them mumble something then run up after me.
It’s a long corridor with loads of doors then another stairs case.
I stumble across a bedroom and instantly like it.
A big double bed in the middle with a massive walk in closet, ensuite that attaches another room to it. Also double doors with glass in them opening up to a medium size balcony having a great view over the city and seeing the Ackers of grass below, that’s are garden.
Oh gosh. It’s awesome.
I can hear the others arguing over rooms and doors closing and opening and exclaims of excitement.
I smile and go out onto the balcony. This is awesome.. New big house, new city, things to do, but one thing missing.
