Chapter 23

Once we got to the hotel we got a room with two bedrooms. “Me and Cal can share a room.” Micheal said. “I’ll sleep on the couch.” I said not wanting to cause an argument. “Sure?” Alex asked. “Positive.” I said. “Ok.” Alex said going into his room. “I’m gonna go on a walk. I’ll be back.” I said walking out. Micheal looked at me worried. “Wait Cassandra are you ok?” He asked holding the door open just as I was about to close it. “Yeah I’m fine. I just wanna go on a walk.” I said aggravated that I couldn’t even go on a walk without someone being suspicious. He looked a mix of confused and worried but didn’t argue.

I left and went outside with Owl and Fidella. “I honestly don’t even know what I’m doing anymore!” I said to Owl. He hooted (meaning: homesick?) “Yes! I am! I wasn’t this homesick when I was away for a year and a half but now I’ve only been gone for 3 weeks and I want nothing more than to go back to Corona!” I said glad to get it out to someone. He hooted a couple times again (meaning: that’s cause you were with Rapunzel and your friends). “I know but still. It’s I don’t know right now I would love to hear a Flynn Rider story from Eugene or race with Raps or practice with dad.” I said. Then I got on Fidella. “I’m going for a race...against no one....so apparently it’s just a ride.” I said once again aggravated. I rode Fidella to the castle and back and felt a little better but I still wasn’t ready to go back to that hotel yet. “I miss the caravan! I never NEVER thought I would say that but I do.” I said. Owl nodded his head.

When we got back to the stables there was a girl there with blonde hair and brown eyes. “I know what your trying to do!” She said. “What? We’re you talking to me?” I asked completely confused. “Yes! And I know what your trying to do!” She said sounding mad at me though we just met. “Um what?” I asked. “Your trying to take Alex from me!” She yelled. “Wait what?” I was completely confused. I had just met this girl and she sounded furious at me. “You heard me! Your trying to take Alex!” She said. “Ok first off he’s like 10 years younger than me second no I’m not I have no intentions of having a boyfriend third that’s illegal he’s too young fourth even if I could I wouldn’t fifth do you need a fifth?” I said getting aggravated again. “Who even are you!” I finally asked. “Cecilia Katri.” She said. “Well Cecilia I have no intentions of even getting a boyfriend so you can calm down.” I said. “Oh well in that case can I stay with you?” She asked. “Um that probably wouldn’t be a good idea.” I said. Why was everyone wanting to stay with us? I was honestly ready to go out on the road again but it was impossible to do with so many people! Maybe I could leave during the night when everyone was asleep! That was my best bet of getting anywhere right now. “Thanks!” She said running ahead to the hotel even though I had said no. “We are leaving tonight!” I told Owl. “I can’t stand this any longer!” He hooted disapprovingly but I ignored it. “Look we aren’t going to get anywhere if we have a whole party with us!” I said. He just looked at me. “Oh never mind!” I said starting to run back to the hotel.
