Flashlight by Jessie J
Maiah's Pov
November 23, 2015 Monday
It's already 5 in the morning. And my phone is ringing. I checked who it is and it was Jasmine. Auster's kid.
"um Aunt Maiah is Dad there?"she asked cautiously
"no but I'll wake him for you"I replied
"thank you"she replied
I stood up and wear my bunny flip-flops and went to Auster's room.
"Aunt M are you still there?"the girl asked
"I'm here, so why did you called?" I said
"well I did another stupid thing and by this time your about to know what did I do"she replied
I knocked at Auster's room and surprisingly awake.
"come in"he said
I opened the door and he was up fixing his bed
"Did my noise wake you up?"he asked
"no but Jasmine did"I said as I give him the phone and he put it to loud speaker
"Hello, Jas?"He asked the girl
"Hi Dad"Jas replied
"so what did you do this time?"Auster asked rubbing his nape
""well you can look at your window and see for yourself"she said
"I guess she really did something big"I said
"I hope this is smaller than you thought"he said as we look outside
At the lawn stood Jasmine with Alden, her butler, and Nicomaine, her Assistant, along with their baggages
"she's just like you isn't she Auster"I said
"thank god she's not pregnant"he said
Auster and I walked down the stairs. Auster switched on the lights while I opened the door for Jasmine. Auster helped Alden and Maine with the baggages
"Hi Aunt M!"She said as she hugged me
"hello Jas"I said as I hugged her back
"mind telling me why did you go here?"I asked her
"well Lorma Special Music School sent me along with Maine and Alden here as an exchange student to Chula Vista University and I'll start today"she said as we walked inside the house
"did you do that on purpose?"I asked
"No"she replied
"Because your Dad and Me along with the guys enrolled there"I said
"Such a coincidence. By the way I heard from Aunt Zi that there's this girl that Dad likes, who is she"Jas asks about Mai. I smiled at the fact that Jasmine likes to meet Mai
"so mind telling me on why did you came here?"Auster asked the girl
"hey Cuz Jasmine, Maine and Alden is an exchange student at the university and they'll start today"I said as I rescued
"yeah besides me, Maine and Alden are tired dad."Jas said
"luckily we have 3 extra rooms at the second floor, so you can choose except for the room beside my room"Auster said
"and why not?"Jasmine ask
"its because somebody owns that room"he said
"okay so who owns it?"she asked
"ugh I better go so that I can cook Breakfast"I said as I walked away from them
Jasmine's Pov
Aunt M walks away as dad and I were still standing
"so dad who owns that room?"I ask
"you'll meet her today at the university"he replied as we walk upstairs
Maine and Alden are walking side by side at our back
"there's two rooms at the end of the hall and a room near the balcony"dad said
"I'll take the room beside the balcony"I said before the two can even talk
"okay so you two will be taking the rooms at the end of the hall"Dad said as he smiled
Maine and Alden bowed down and walked towards their room
"are they dating?"Dad asked
"yeah since I turned 13"I replied
"and your turning 14 next week. December 2 right?"He said
"yeah and I'm thankful that you adopted me"I replied thinking the day he said that he'll go back for me
"is she beautiful?"I asked curious about the girl that caught dads heart
"she's gorgeous"he replied as we walk down to the living room
I sat on the sofa while dad walked to the kitchen to help aunt M. I reached for remote and switched to Netflix
"can I join you Jas?"Maine asks
"yes ofcourse"I replied as she sat beside me
We were like that for a minute so I spoke up
"what's the problem?"I ask her
"its just that I'm nervous for later on"she said
"look everything will be okay we have dad and Aunt M for us"I said
"you know if I didn't met Mr. Clarkson, I won't be here"She said
"he's like Grandpa"I said
"hey girls food is ready"dad said as he got upstairs for Alden and the rest of his gang
"coming!"we said in unison and laugh together
We gathered on the dining table as Aunt M gave us breakfast. French Toast with Cinnamon and Hot chocolate. Dad came along with Alden and sat beside us
"Is it delicious?"Aunt M asks us
"Its delicious Aunt M I truly miss your delicacies"I said
After we ate Dad, I and Maine sat at the living room and started a conversation
"so Maine, Jasmine I hope that you'll be alright at the University"he said
"I'm sure Maine and I will enjoy there"I replied
"and I'm sure that you guys won't regret going here"Dad said as we nodded in agreement
"hey how about a song?"Dad continued as he got his guitar
"okay can you play Flashlight by Jessie J?"I ask
"sure"Dad said as he did the intro
"When tomorrow comes
I'll be on my own
Feeling frightened of
The things that I don't know
When tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes"I sang the first verse
"And though the road is long
I look up to the sky
And in the dark I found,
I lost hope that I won't fly
And I sing along, I sing along
And I sing along"Maine sang the next
"I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night"We sang together
"Can't stop my heart when you shinin' in my eyes
Can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
'Cause you're my flashlight"Maine sang
"flashlight"I backed up
"You're my flashlight (light)
You're my flashlight"we ended the song and we were silent for a moment
"Thank you Dad for adopting me"I said as a tear escaped my eye
"and for helping me to find myself"Maine said
"your welcome guys"Dad replied as he hugged the two of us
I'm glad that I have a family that would be always there for me
