Part 11
(A better morning.)
    The night before I leave, to go see Jonathan, I packed everything I would need.  Now it's 10:30, guess I should get some sleep.  That's a good one.  Me sleep.  I can't sleep.  I'm too excited.
     "Knock knock, Jessica.  Good morning, are you up?"  My mom walked into my room.
     "Am I up?  You got to be joking.  I couldn't sleep last night.  This is going to be great.  I am ready."  I want to scream.  Happy happy I'm so happy!
     "Well, you place doesn't leave until later, so you've got time."  She took a deep breath.
     "It's only five days."  I smiled.  Yea only 5 days, why can't it be more?
     "Yea, and four nights," she said starting to cry.
     "And your point...?"  She can't cry, I'm too happy.
     "Nothing, come on and eat some breakfast."  She walked out.
     "Oh no, what if I go and get sick?  What if I say something sutpid and everyone he knows hates me, or what if...?  No more 'what ifs.'  Happy happy, I'm so happy, must remember that."  Yes I was talking to myself.
     "Mom, I'm not that hungry," I said.
     "Fine, then you won't go," she said looking right at me.  Before saying anything, I had a glass of milk and a plate of food.
     "Ok, I'm eating," I said laughing.
     "Hey Jessica, remember anytime you wnt to come home, you just call ok?"  She smiled.
     "Does that work if I want to stay longer?  5 days?"  I smiled back.
     "No, smartass.  You have to call me every night by 10 got it?"  She looked scared.
     "Yea yea."  I am done eating in only a few minutes.  Maybe that wasn't smart eating so fast.
     "Hope you don't get sick on the plane!"  Oh no, I hope not!  "Hey, even if he is a big star, remember he is still a guy.  Don't do anything... anything."
     "Ok, he could have anyone as a girlfriend, I still don't know why he is being nice to me.  He is funny and cute, and I am going on that."  I walk into my bedroom smiling.
     "Funny and cute can get you in trouble, don't forget that," she yelled back.
     Jonathan and the word "dangerous" don't fit.  This is Jonathan.  My mom is going ot bug me the whole time I am there, but the ting is, I will be there.
     "Jessica!  Are you ready?" she yelled.
     "I have been ready since you told me I coould go a few days ago," I yelled frrom my room.
     "Well, let's go.  The sooner you're gone and up in a plane the sooner I cry my eyes out."
     "Well what are we waiting for?  Come on."
     "Yea yea," she replies.
     "Oh God, maybe you shouldn't go..." WHAT?  WHAT?  WHAT?  NO!!!  My mom didn't just say what I think she said.
     "Why?  No!  I want to and you can't tell me no now!  Please drive please don't stop now."  I could sound crazy like this until she says ok but she started the car up.  It's all good.  "Oh thank God, you scared me.  I thought you weren't going to let me go!"  I took a deep breath.
     "Well now you know how scared I am going to be.  Like a millino times more scared than you just were."
     About an hour later, we are saying goodbye.  I felt so happy and she was crying her eyes out.  Not fair, she wasn't supposed to start crying until I left!  That way I wouldn't have to see it.  Still, I'm happy!  Now on the plane!
