Chelsea POV
After half a year of living in Australia (one of my aunts had moved there and we decided to visit her for a while), we finally got to go back to Chiswick for Christmas.

I was so bored, it was lucky this was 2011 and not 1911 or I wouldn't have been able to contact Jake. However, at the airport I saw them.

"Karen!" Paige shouted and ran over. I walked over too.

"Oh hello, what are you all doing here?" My mum asked.

"Oh hi Kimberly!" Sue greeted. "We're going to Tenerife for Christmas. Where have you all been?"

"We've been in Australia visiting Aunt Jessel," Paige said.

"Yeah, we're going back to England over Christmas to spend time with our other family, but then we're er going back for a while," I added.

About an hour later, we were still at the airport. Paige decided she needed the toilet and then she wanted something to eat. I'd never seen a toilet queue so long before! And then the Burger King queue was even longer. And then she needed the bloody toilet again! And then, she decided she didn't want to go because there was a toilet guy. The brockmans had gone to their flight by then but then they all came back out, along with everyone else on that flight.

"Has your flight been cancelled?" I asked when we went over to them.

"Yeah. Cows in the Heathrow tunnel," Pete said.

"We're going to have to go back. How are you getting back? I didn't think you could park here for so long," Sue said.

"We're getting a taxi," mum said.

"Oh nonsense, come in our car!"

"But there's no room," Ben said.

"Ben! There is room, don't worry. Come on,"

It turned out there was a lot of drama that day. They were trusting Jane to look after the house while they were gone but Jane has invited her new boyfriend. Sue thought he was a criminal and told Jane, who ended dumping him (we think). Then Sue found out she was wrong and it was one of Janes other boyfriends and blah blah blah he turned out to be a lawyer. And while all that was happening, Frank was ill in hospital with a kidney infection.

When we arrived back in Keely road, Jane's boyfriend was back so they decided to go to the hospital to see Frank.

"Could I come?" I asked.

"Yes, of cource Chelsea," Sue said.

We ended up singing some songs, and I think it was a nice way for Christmas Day to end.

*******
We had been in Australia for what seemed like years. Although I had made lots of friends here, (Stacey, Laura, Isabelle and Amy, and of cource my cousin Katie) I still miss everyone back in England. I would be halfway through my flirts term in year 13 at my normal school but instead I was in a school in Australia.

I didn't see why we had to come here for so long. It's almost like we live here now, but we don't. We're ... just having an extremely long holiday while visiting our aunt who was a little bit ill.

"Chelsea!" My mum called. I sighed and went downstairs.

"What," I said.

"Oh Chelsea, try to stop being so moody all the time!"

"Sorry," I mumbled.

"Anyway, we're going back home next month,"

"Really! Oh thank god for that!" I then ran up to my room and started packing my things.
