Just Friends

Chapter: 11

"I'm here!" I heard Lexi's voice yell from downstairs.

"I'll be down in a few!" I hollered back. I zipped my suitcase shut. I literally had everything in here that I was taking to LA.

Yup, you heard me. I'm going to LA with the twins, along with Lexi.

I was honestly very excited for this to happen. I needed time to myself with my friends. I needed to get away for a while. Even though I'm done with school, I just wanted to get the thought of the rude people there out of my head for good.

I was dressed comfy for the flight. Our 6 hour flight. I was wearing leggings and a t-shirt. I'm bringing my headphones on the plane with me and I have my purse with snack food in it just in case me or the others get hungry.

I collected all my things that I needed and I started to head downstairs. Once I got to the bottom of the stairs, inset my things by the front door.

I had smelled something cooking in the kitchen. I followed the scent into the kitchen to find my mom making pancakes. Lexi was sitting at the island, waiting for pancakes.

"Why did you make pancakes?" I asked.

"Well, you girls have to leave for the airport in half an hour, so I figured you'd want something to eat that was fast and easy." Mom flipped pancakes onto a plate. She turned to us and set them in the island. "Dig in girls."

"Thank you mama." I smiled over to her before sitting next to Lexi. We both dug into the pancakes.

"Yeah, thank you!" Lexi said as she took a big bite of her food.

"You're welcome girls." She smiled at us. "You two excited?"

"Yeah!" We said in unison.

"You girls are going to have a blast. I'm excited for you." Mom said as she took a drink of her coffee.

"I'm excited to fly finally." Lexi said. "I've always wanted too."

"I like flying. I've only flown once, but it was fun." I said, remembering when my parents and I flew to Disney World when I was 12.

"It's be flown a few times and it's not bad at all." Mom agreed. "How long is your flight again?"

"Like 6 and a half hours." I groaned. "I'm going to be so bored."

"Not if you sit by Grayson." Lexi smirked at me. I glared at her, hitting her arm.

"Ow! I was only kidding!"

"You and Grayson?" Mom raised her brow at me.

"No. I'm not talking about this. We're friends. Nothing more, Lexi." I stated. "End of story!"

"Maybe." Lexi coughed under her breath. I rolled my eyes. I finished my plate of pancakes and brought my dishes to the sink.

"You girls ready?!" The twins yelled. I heard footsteps walk down the hallway. I turned around and they were now in the kitchen.

"Fuck yeah!" Lexi exclaimed as she put her dishes in the sink.

"Hell yeah." I smiled.

"Well then, let's get to the airport!" Ethan said. The boys turned their backs and headed to the front door. Lexi and I followed, along with my mom.

"Call me when you land. I love you." Mom gave me a hug before I grabbed my luggage.

"I will mom. I love you." I pulled apart the hug.

"And Lexi, don't get into trouble. No punching anyone or getting into fights." Mom said and I couldn't help but laugh.

"I know, I know. Mom had the same talk with me." Lexi laughed.
