After my peaceful shower I throw on my jumper and some joggers,Hurrying down the stairs,My mum and dad both work till 1pm Today,So that leaves me and my sister in the house with James,My little brother,When I get to the living room,I instantly hear the TV,Obviously transformers was on.

I swiftly peek around the corner to see James' favourite film on TV. I watch as he waves his bumble bee toy in his hand,my sister glued to her phone,Like any normal 10 year old.

I sigh and walk to the kitchen making myself a bowl of cereal which I happily scoff down my throat. Heading into the room,Enjoying the film with them.

Eventually it ends,My finger nails bit to the bone and my heart beating like a drum.

I change my brother into some decent clothes and send my sister upstairs to get a shower ready for later at the highway man.

"I'm home" my mum gushed whilst piling through the door.

"Hey." James and I say in sync.

"I'll get him ready Emily,Go and get changed for later." She grins,Placing a few bags on the counter top.

I jog up the stairs into my room,Taking my seat on my white stool in front of my lit up makeup desk.

Glaring in the mirror at my awful face I sigh and begin emptying my makeup bag,To the very bottom.

I pull out my foundation and rub it on my face adding bronzer,mascara,Chunking up my eye Lashes afterwards adding eye liner to thicken up my eyes,Along with eyebrow pencil colouring them a light shade of brown.

Quickly pulling our a pair of leggings,Pulling them up and throwing on a black and white top.

My Favourite colours.

How depressing. After finishing getting changed I spray my favourite perfume,Soap and glory,my all time favourite.

I took longer than I thought,Because as i arrive down the stairs I see everyone pulling on their coats and fastening their shoes. I didn't even hear my dad come in.

I grab my blue brogues and throw on my leather jacket waiting impatiently.

We scramble out the door and head to the local pub.

I push the door open,nearly head butting it on my way,To see Mel,In leggings,and a grey top with a jacket,However managing to make it look so good,I feel over dressed and a mess at the same time. Is that even possible?

I perch my self next to her.

"Hey" she grins.

"Hi" I reply.

For the first two,Unsettling minutes of our gathering,I notice Mel's eyes in my direction,Staring me out almost.

"Um,I have something to tell you. Can we get our own table?" She asks.

I frown and begin pushing in my chair.

"Wait. Let's stay here a bit so I can see your mum on her birthday."

She rolls her eyes,Unimpressed and sits. "Fine. Okay. Whatever."

I almost roll my eyes,Yet too afraid she'd see me.

Eventually after a few drinks and cards and presents are all opened,Mel and I escape to a table for two.

I notice her phone constantly vibrating.

"Tell me." I urge,in a shaky voice.

Scared that maybe I have done something,Maybe I've made another silly mistake.

"Well er-" she shifts on her chair,Uncomfortable.

"Well I've been speaking to this boy,Actually." she says,Fiddling with a salt pot between her fingers.

"Er well,He's Called Lewis. And well we're talking,He likes me,Yet he has a girlfriend,He's lovely and the nicest lad I've met. My new friend Brooke Turner,Who I met in my lesson,Likes him a lot too,And well she asked me to mail him asking him if he likes her. He doesn't,And I was suppose to get them together,But er- well him and I are talking now,Like he calls me baby and things." She says,Her eyes still unable to meet mine.

I sum out her problem in my head,Desperate to fund out who Lewis is.

"Well,Carry on speaking to him,See where it gets you." I grin.

She nods,picking up her flashing phone,And replying to a message.

"C-can I mail him?" I asked Mel,On edge to whether she'd yell or be polite.

"Yeah,Sure. His last name is Henderson." She grins,Probably hoping it will be a good idea,Probably hoping it will take the weight off her shoulders.

I take my phone from out of my pocket.

My fingers vibrating quicker than Mel's phone as I type the name into my phone, not even checking the profile picture.

Here we go. Our first conversation with a new big over text.

Me: Hi x

And that was when my life truley began.
