Disneyland midDecember 2008

Half awake, I open my eyes to my step dads ugly voice.
"Are you going with me to get Taylor."
"No, I'm going to sleep for a little more."
He replies "Okay, I'll be back in fifteen. You better be up."
"Yeah, yeah." As I say rolling over to my other side.

Fifteen minutes later my mom yells from upstairs, "Dad is home, Rachel get up!"
I quickly stand up. I feel so light headed. People are not suppose to get up when it is dark outside.

Taylor walks in and I give him a huge hug, while he spins me around in a circle. He puts me down. "I felt light headed before you did that. Now I feel nauseous." I give him a half smile. He kisses my forehead. "Sorry babe." I get on my tip toes and give him a peck on the nose.

We finally load up and drive to my brothers house, where my sister, her boyfriend and my niece are staying. They flew in from stupid New Hampshire to go to SoCal with us. I love my sister, Katie, but she can be a baby sometimes. Luckily I have Mike, her boyfriend/fiance will keep me sane. I absolutely approve of her boyfriend. He is PERFECT for her, plus me and him have the same sense of humor, which is awesome. So Mike, Taylor and I will be sane with each other through the trip.


Five hours and twenty minutes later we arrive at our hotel. My sister drives like a maniac. My step dad, my mom and all the triplets arrive an hour later.
My dad is really mad, but is just putting on that front because he was mad he was taking so long.

We lounge around and find our hotel rooms.
An hour later we go to the park. It is about one thirty. I gave Taylor a tye die shirt that says PONGO on the front of it. I am honestly kind of scared. I know he will not like it. He looks it, and switches shirts immediately. He smiles and give me a kiss. I am shocked he put it on.
"Do you like it? Are you sure you won't feel embarassed?"
"Rach, did you really just say that? Of course not. Its cute, and I know you took alot of time to do this, and i want to wear it, SOOO you have no choice. I am wearing it"

We walk down to the lobby. Taylor and Mike are not that aquainted. Taylor and I slept in the back seat the whole ride there.
Mike says "Oh look, Pongo and Perty!"
I give him a smirk and then glare at him
"Oh look Mr. Prince Charming!" I say sarcasticly
He is six foot six, and he is walking towards me, and whispers in my ear "Why could I have been Scar from the lion king or something. I HATE you. You just wait to see if you have hair in the morning."

He stands back up and looks around like a douche, pretending like we made and illegal deal or something.

"Oh PONGO!" Mike smiles "Look you have a bitch." Then Mike looks over at me.
I look over at Taylor. He looks like he is going to pound Mike into the ground. Taylor is... VERY over protective of me.
Thankfully my step dad says it is time to go. That is it. Mike has no chance to becoming even aquainted with Taylor. He is so mad.

We get into the park. All of us are having fun. Of course Katie is on a scavenger hunt for EVERY princess character so she can get a picture with her and her baby, Morgan.

We all convince Katie that we should go on some rides. First we go on splash mountain, my favorite ride. My dad puts me in a wheel chair, and for every ride we go up to the fast pass guy and get to go in the fast pass line, TWICE.

We go on a couple more rides. Finally we get to my sisters favorite ride, Pirates of the Caribbean.

Taylor looks at me. "I smoked a little weed this morning, and you didn't notice."






The whole day I barely say anything. He is drowning and I can not save him. It breaks my heart. All I want is for HIM to want to be sober and get out of the world of drugs. I know he wants to, but does not understand how. No one can help him.
I start to tear up.

He gets upset.
