Aunt Alice

12:15 is the time on my watch. 

We have just landed. Thank you for choosing to fly with us. Your exit is on your right.

I grab my carry on bag and head toward the exit. I text my aunt that I have landed.

She hates being called aunt. She prefers Alice. Alice is the only other relative I have. My mother is an only child. My father is Alice twin. Alice convinced my parents for me to move in with her. My parents own an international business, they are due for improvement. My parents where willing to do the improvements through video chat, they didnt want to risk my high school career. So Alice said she will love to babysit me.

*Zzzz zzzz*

An: Alice?

AL:Ana, Im waiting for you by the exit.

An: Okay, Im picking up my luggage.

AL: Ok, Im so excited to see you!! I'll see you !

An: okay Alice.

I hang up. I go to claim my luggage. Why is it so busy?

Im sorry!

I turn around. I see a tall male. He is completely tatted up and buff. He must be an athlete.

It's fine.

I see my luggage and go claim it. I head out toward the exit.

AAAANNNAAAA!!! Screams my aunt Alice.

I see her run towards me. She gives me a big bear hug. I just stand there and pat her back awkwardly.

Hi Aun-Alice.

Im so glad your finally here!! I've been counting down the days of when you where to arrive. Alice breaks away from her hug and looks at me.

You look just like me. You could pass as my daughter.

I smile at her. I see my aunt look up and starts waving someone down. I turn around and see the same tall guy that bumped into me. He walks toward us. 

Hello, Ms. Alice. Thank you for picking me up.

He gives a hug to my aunt.

No problem Jay! Jay this is my niece Ana. She is completely new to here. 

Before I can even say Hi Jay gives me a big hug.

J: Its nice to meet you, Alice hasnt stopped talking about you.

I push away from him. Im not much of a hugging person.

Come on kids, lets get going if we want to beat traffic.

I look down at me watch, it is now 2:45. I grab my bags and follow behind my aunt.

 Jay and I put our bags in Alice's trunk. In the corner of my eye I see jay looking at me. I hate when people look at me. Its one of my pet peeves. I open the door to the car . Alice has papers and her laptop on the passenger seat. To avoid that, I go to the back. Jay follows right after me. 

Im not going to lie, Jay is an attractive guy. Just not my type.

Ana, Jay here is the Capitan of the football team. You will be going to the same school. He's also popular with the girls. 

Blah blah blah blah is all I heard.

Jay and Alice where now talking. I starred out the window. There is amazing scenery. I would love to go out and explore. It's a small town. Everyone knows eachother and everything. Alice said there has actually been a huge increase in the people in town.

Alice is an athlete therapist. She helps anyone who is a sport from massages to prevent damage. Her communication with athletes is important. 

J:Ana..?

Huh? 

J:Do you do any sports?

Oh no. Im not the best. I prefer Arts.

J:That's different... I like it.

Jay kept looking at me in a wierd way. I just looked away. 

I want to go home.

----------------------------------1 hour later -----------------------------------------

Ana..

Ana..

I open my eyes and I see Jay's face and inch away from mine. I get up. When did I lay my head on his lap?

We are here. He smiled at me.

I nodded. Alice dropped off Jay.

Thank you Ms.Alice. It's nice to meet you Ana. I'll see you around in school. Jay winked. That's another pet peeve.
