"yay! the sleepover is on!" kenzie says.
god she's so cute.
wait, what?
"can you drop johnny and i off at our house so we can grab our stuff?" lauren asks mackenzie.
"yeah." kenzie says.
"mom can you have the uber take us to their house?" she says.
"what's the address?" melissa asks us.
"123 4th street." i say.
"okay, just let me tell the driver." melissa answers.
"maddie and my mom are gonna share a room, we get one all to ourselves." kenzie says. "there's two beds, so lauren and i can share."
"okay! i can't wait!" says lauren.
"me neither." i say.

we arrive at lauren and i's house.
"do you wanna come in?" i ask kenzie.
"sure!" she says. we get out of the uber and walk up the path to our house.
"it's really messy, sorry." lauren says.
"it's fine. you should see my house. clothes, shoes, and other random things everywhere." kenzie giggles.
that's so cute.
wait, what?
i run up to my room to grab my things. i had texted my mom in the uber and she's fine with it. i grab everything i needed for tonight and the next day.
i walk into the hall and hear lauren and kenzie in lauren's room.
"johnny totally likes you." lauren says.
"totally." kenzie says in a sarcastic tone.
"i'm serious! you should see the way he looks at you!" my annoying sister says. i hear footsteps walking closer to the door so i run downstairs to the living room. i sit in the couch and act like i've been there the whole time.
"are you guys ready?" i say, standing up.
"yep!" lauren says.
"let's go." kenzie says.

"wow, look at this view!" i say, looking out the window.
we had a perfect look at downtown toronto. it was beginning to get dark, so the lights were on and it was glowing.
"okay, lets get organized." i say.
"how? there's really nothing to organize." says johnny.
"there's some things." i say.
i grab my suitcase and open it to reveal a large assortment of chips, candies, and chocolate. i see lauren's eyes practically bulge out of her head.
"we're so eating all that tonight!" she yells.
"lauren, shush! there are other guests here at the hotel!" johnny reprimands her.
"don't be so uncool." lauren says, rolling her eyes.
"back to what you said lauren, we totally are!" i say.
it was 8:30 pm, so we decided to change into our pajamas and watch a movie.
"what movie should it be?" i asked them, scrolling through the channels.
"how about a horror movie?" lauren suggests.
"sure. okay, the original 'it' is on, as well as 'the shining' and 'the visit'." i say.
"let's do 'the shining'. says johnny.
"sounds good." says lauren.
i select that movie and we settle in with our snacks. the movie starts.

i look at lauren. she's sound asleep. i turn and see johnny on his phone.
"hey." i say.
he looks up i surprise.
"hi?" he says uncertainly.
"insomnia?" i say.
"yep." he agrees.
i grab my phone from its charger and plop down on his bed.
"i won't sleep for awhile, so i'll stay over here so lauren doesn't wake up from my phone." i say.
"i'll probably be up too." he says.
we sit on our phones for a while until i get tired of sitting.
"let's go on a walk." i say.
"like, outside?" he says.
"yes. now get up." i say, pulling him up.

i grab my shoes and a key card and walk out the door. i hear johnny behind me.
"where are we walking to?" he asks as he catches up with me.
"i don't know. i was tired of sitting." i reply.
we continue walking in silence until johnny randomly talks.
"your dog wasn't that cute, you know." he says.
"oh please. i bet you haven't seen any cuter ones." i say.
"i have. my dogs bentley and leo." he says.
"whatever. mali is adorable." i say.
"whatever helps you sleep at night." he says.
"nothing does. otherwise i would be sleeping right now." i say.
"oh that's right. i get it though." he says.
"when did it start for you?" i say.
"last year, when my parents started fighting." he says. "what about you?"
"3 years ago. when mine were fighting." i say.
"sounds like a trend." he says, laughing.
"i'm going back to pittsburgh tomorrow, you know. back to talking on snapchat." i say sadly.
"yep." he says.
"i don't know if i can come to toronto on a regular basis, so it's gonna be like that for awhile." i say.
"lauren and i are homeschooled. we could come basically anytime." he says.
"you guys could meet up with me at my meet and greets!" i say.
"that would be fun." he says.
we continue to walk around for about an hour.
*kenzies phine rings*
mom?
kenzie, where the hell are you and johnny?
we went on a walk.
get back to the hotel right now. it's not safe to go walking around in a strange city at night.
fine, we're walking back now. see you.
see you.
*end of call*
"what was that about?" johnny asks.
"someone told my mom we were gone. probably lauren." i say.
"i'm guessing so." he replies.
we walk back to the hotel.
"well, that was fun while it lasted." johnny said as we walked into the elevator.
"now we have to sit in the room." i say.
"i brought my laptop. want to watch a movie or something?" he says.
"sure." i say.
we get up to our hotel room to find my mother waiting for us.
"mackenzie, you should know better. it's not safe out there for you two. now go to bed. it's late." she says.
"i'm guessing she doesn't know about the insomnia?" johnny says as we walk into the hotel room.
"nope." i say, jumping onto his bed.
"i'll grab my laptop. what do you want to watch?" he says.
"riverdale!" i say.
"that's actually a great choice." he says as he sits in his bed and opens the laptop. he goes to netflix and finds riverdale. we watch until we hear a knock on the door. i realise the sun has come up.
"shit." i mutter.
i run to the door and open it.
"what do you want maddie?" i ask her.
"it's time to come down to breakfast." she says.
"okay. i'll meet you down there." i reply.
"we have to go to breakfast." i inform johnny.
i then jump on lauren's bed and pull the covers off of her.
"hi." she says.
"wait, you weren't asleep?" i ask, confused.
"nope. and i also have a juicy new instagram post. go check it out!" she screeches.
i grab my phone and open instagram.

REAL
An ancient hunchback named Finnel is the principal of a school where students’ special abilities might be called magical, supernatural powers. Or, maybe those students’ heightened attributes are more like honed talents any ordinary person could discover and dedicate to developing. Either way, at Finnel's school, even the most otherworldly of traits always finds its source in something REAL . . . in actual human capacities, like intuition, empathy, awareness, strength... REAL is a series of ongoing tales, each centered around an individual student at Finnel's school. Framing slice-of-life authenticity with cool powers and uplifting humor, REAL maintains a light, fun tone while never shying away from digging down deep into weighty themes like identity, connection, and meaning.
