Chapter 27 - All's Well That Ends Well

"Where are we going?"

"How long will it take?!"

"I'm already exhausted from singing, how long Jake?!"

"Just a few minutes, guys. Hold on."

"Man, I never knew you were this rich and had an amazing car!"

"We demand a road trip!"

"Rods trip!"

"Road trip!"

"In a week, guys."

"Where are we going?" Alex asked.

I smiled. "The Grand Canyon."

"Now that's like Richie Rich!" Mia sang.

"Hey, there's an amazing song on the radio," Jeff uttered. "Let's sing along."

He thought you were awesome

He thought I was awesome? My brother?

Definitely!

How?

Well, he said

There's nothing like your smile

Sort of subtle and perfect and real

He said

You never knew how wonderful

That smile could make someone feel

And he knew

Whenever you get bored

You scribble stars on the cuffs of your jeans

And he noticed

That you still fill out the quizzes

That they put in those teen magazines

But he kept it all inside his head

What he saw he left unsaid

And though he wanted to

He couldn't talk to you

He couldn't find the way

But he would always say

If I could tell her

Tell her everything I see

If I could tell her

How she's everything to me

But we're a million worlds apart

And I don't know how I would even start

If I could tell her

If I could tell her

Did he say anything else?

About you?

Never mind, I don't really care anyways

No, no, no just, no, no he said, he said so many things

I'm just, I'm trying to remember the best ones so, um

He thought

You looked really pretty, er

It looked pretty cool when you put indigo streaks in your hair

He did?

And he wondered how you learned to dance

Like all the rest of the world isn't there

But he kept it all inside his head

What he saw he left unsaid

If I could tell her

Tell her everything I see

If I could tell her

How she's everything to me

But we're a million worlds apart

And I don't know how I would even start

If I could tell her

If I could tell her

But what do you do when there's this great divide?

He just seemed so far away

And what do you do when the distance is too wide?

It's like I don't know anything

And how do you say

I love you

I love you

I love you

I love you

But we're a million worlds apart

And I don't know how I would even start

If I could tell her

If I could

"Oh, here we are," I announced as the mansion came into view. They gasped seeing the marvelous sight in front of them.

"You know, I'm so tempted to cancel the road trip," Cady uttered, star-struck.

"Me too." The rest said in unison.

"What are we doing here? Meeting your parents?" Alex asked.

"Nah." I smiled. "Even better."

As soon as I parked in front of the entrance, everyone got out of the car and stood in front of the large gates. I handed the keys to Dave to park the car while we entered the mansion.

"Jake, we demand answers," Mia demanded.

The gates swung open and the one only figure came in sight. My most favorite person in this universe.

I smiled. "Guys, meet my sister. Nicoletta Elena Matthews."
