Amelia fell backwards onto her king-sized bed and made snow angel motions on her fluffy white comforter for a good three minutes. She was just so, so happy to have a bed again, and all of her furniture in place. Now she could have guests over and have a house warming party with her family, and the few friends she managed to make in New York City. She slid off of her neatly made bed and headed into the kitchen, her mind buzzing with all of the possibilities for her house warming party. I'll need to buy some things...but that can wait until next week. Still need to get settled in.
Amelia opened the fridge and gazed inside, disappointed to find that the shelves, drawers...everything was empty. Of course she knew refrigerators didn't come stocked with food, but it would be nice if they did. Mmmm. Her stomach let out a low grumble. It had been several days since she actually put some effort into a meal. Now that all of the furniture had arrived, there was no excuse. She pushed the door and allowed it to close on it's own. "I guess I can pick up a couple of things..." She walked over to the counter and checked her phone, finding that once again there was a missed call from her mother. Amelia was just about to press the call back button, but there was someone at the door.
*ding*dong*ding*dong*ding*dong*
Amelia rushed from the kitchen and through the living room. "Coming!" She shouted, but they kept ringing the doorbell like a child. Whoever it was really knew how to push Amelia's buttons, and they'd better hope she didn't ring their neck afterwards. Huffing, Amelia turned the door knob and swung the door open with a mean scowl. Suddenly, her features softened and there was a tight lipped smile on her face.
"Danielle?! What are you doing here? Where's Mom?" Question after question, not giving the girl a chance to respond. Amelia stepped aside to let her younger sister in. Danielle grinned and came inside, her eyes widening in shock as she took in all of the nice furnishings in her sister's home. She didn't even bother answering Amelia's questions. "Shouldn't you be in school?!"
"It's Saturday." Was all Danielle said.
