My Dream Spring Break.

See the bright lights. Hear the laughing. Smell the freshly cooked food, coming out of the resturant. Oh, yes, you guessed it. I'm in Vegas.

One week, till I go to Las Vegas, I thought. I was busy in my apartment all week. Packing and cleaning, and making phone calls. My dog, Skydancer, stared at me with longing eyes. I looked back at him, smiled, and scratched behind his ears, his favourite spot to be scratched. He was being looked after by the lovely Zoe, herself.
My trip to Vegas was even more speacial, because I got to go on a date with a guy, who was very famous, in my world at least.

My friend Zoe, was a very famous actress, who knew a lot of people. If you know what I mean. She was very good friends with famous people, and lucky for me she was almost best friends with Criss Angel, my idol. I have met him, a couple of times, and now I have a chance to go on a date with him.

The next day as I get on the plane, I find my heart pounding very fast! I mean really, how many girls get a chance to go on a date with a celebrity. I take my seat next to a girl who looks about my age, maybe one year difference. She smiles at me when I sit down and says, "Hey, I'm Star", when she notices my strange expression, she says to me, "Ya, I know it's a weird name. I get that a lot." . "No its not that, it's just that my name is Skye!" I tell her. She thought that was pretty weird too. Skye and Star. It was like we were meant to be together. Friends forever.

That entire flight was spent laughing and exchanging stories about all of the people who have made weird comments about our names. I told her about once, in elementary school I fell down and people started yelling, "The Skye is falling. The Skye is falling!!". She thought that was hysterical. She told me how her favourite song was always Twinkle Twinkle Litle Star. I thought that was pretty funny too. I told her why I was going to Las Vegas, and what I was going to do when I got there. When I asked her the same question her reply was simply, "Why not." I liked her free spirt, it inspired me.

As soon as our plan landed, we were both surprised, yet again, that we were staying at the same hotel. We boarded our shuttel and drove off into the sunset.

When we got to our hotel we were super excited when we saw Criss Angel standing outside! My heart started to beat super fast. I mean, I was standing infront of a T.V. celebrity!!!
"Hello ladies, and you must be Skye." he said to me. Oh. My. God. He knows my name!

After Criss helped us carry our stuff up to our rooms, he reminded me that we had date in 3 hours. he told me that a limo would pick me up at 7 sharp.

As soon as he walked away, Star stared at me in awe, and then we both busted out in squeals. "Oh yeah, I think that I forgot to tell you something.... I'm a fashion designer!", said Star. I was so excited. I had a fashion designer helping me with my clothes, for the date i am going on with a celebrity. And even though I have only known Star for 4 hours, it feels like we've been friends forever.

We unlocked the door to my room and Star went right to work. She picked out the perfect outfit for me to wear. It was a lime green wrap dress that you could style in 15 different ways.

The limo picked me up at 7:00 sharp. I was so excited. When I got into the limo, the limo driver said to me, "This must be Criss Angel's date.", I nodded with a big smile on my face.

We pulled up to the Luxor, and the limo driver opened the door for me. I slowly stepped out and was amazed at what I saw. It was a beautiful hotel. It was shaped like a pyramid. I was so excited. When i walked through the front doors, I knew that this was where Criss always was. His car was parked outside. His motercycle was parked inside for people to see. Everywhere you looked, you would have seen his face. He was on the windows, doors and walls.

The limo driver escourted me into the resuarant. I saw Criss right away. He looked amazing! His tux looked lovely but not to formal on him. We sat down and made small talk. He asked me how I was. I responded. You get the picture. After we ordered we started to tell eachother about our selves. He was so interesting. I could have listened to him all night long.

I told him about myslf, where I lived (hint hint), and my dog. Compared to him I lived such a boring life. But he didn't seem to care. I started to feel bad for boring him so I said, "I am sorry. I must bore you to death with telling you about myself.". He shook his head in dissagreement. He told me I was the most interesting girl he had ever met. I didn't want the night to ever end.

The night did end, but it was wonderful. I would be thanking Zoe for the rest of my life.

On the plane ride home, I took out my camera and looked at all of the pictures we had taken after diner, outside. There were some goofy ones, but most of them were adorable. When looked so cute together. I didn't want to tell him goodbye. Even though I knew I would see him again.

I burst through my door so happy to see Skydancer. My face was licked many, many times. I had miss her so much.

About one week later I got a very excited phone call from my super firend Zoe. She told me that Criss hadn't stopped calling her about me. I jumped up and down with excitement when she told me he was going to be in New York for a week next month. I almost dropped my phone.

I had cleaned the house, the dog, and everyplace inbetween. I was washing the floor for the 5th time when I heard a knock on the door.

I slowly opened the door and jumped into Criss's arms. We stayed like that for another 2 minutes.

I showed him around my house, then showe him where he would be sleeping. He went to go freshen up and stuff. This was the perfect end to my perfect spring break!
