Moment in Time (PLEASE DO NOT READ. I WARNED YOU)

Chapter 8

Lily’s POV

Today was finally the day. I was going to meet up with Harry for our little hang out session. Chelsea and Caitlin were on there way to my house. They seemed to be way more excited than I was. No matter how many times I tried to convince them, they still believed that I was going on a date. I told them and even showed them my messages with Harry. I’ll make another attempt to convince them when they arrive at my house.

*Ring*Ring*

The doorbell rings. I run down the staircase and open the door to find Chelsea and Caitlin smiling like idiots.

“Well, what’re we waiting for? Time is running out. We need every second to beautify you.” Chelsea smiles at me.

All three of us run up the stairs to my room. They settle down putting their bags down.

“First things first, have you taken a shower?” Caitlin asks.

“Yep. Just came out. My hair is still damp.” I say matter-of-factly.

They both ignore me as they attack my closet; my clothes flying everywhere. I take a seat on my bed waiting patiently for them to pay attention to me. I feel a buzz in my pocket signaling that I have a new notification. I pull it down and scroll down the notification bar. The screen stares back at me. It mocks me as I click on Harry’s new kik.

Ello love. I’ll be there soon. I hope you’re as excited as I am. We’re going to have a “FUN” time baby.

I immediately blush. How could I not? However, luck was not on my side at this moment in time. Chelsea and Caitlin had finally managed to acknowledge my presence right when I read the text. This resulted in them watching me blush furiously over Harry’s double-meaning words.

The two girls were now full on smirking as they slowly stalked towards me. I was expecting both of them to scream at this point. I was right. I probably jinxed myself because just as I thought it, my two best friends shrieked as loud as they could. Chelsea and Caitlin walked over to my side.

“Oh my oh my! Are you blushing for what I think you are or...” Caitlin gushes.

“Um I don’t know?” I say more as a question rather than a statement. Chelsea snatches my phone from my hand. My friends seem to be doing that more often lately.

“Oooh, Caitlin, come look at these messages. Let’s see what they’ve been flirting about.” Chelsea teases.

I didn’t even bother to make an attempt to take my phone back. I had nothing to hide. Plus, we weren’t really flirting at all. It was the usual friendly conversations someone would have with their friend. Chelsea and Caitlin wouldn't probably get Harry’s double-meaning words anyways. They might. After all, I blame my friends for my now nasty mind.

“Fun time baby?” Caitlin giggles. So they did understand the meaning?

“As much as I enjoy your faces while reading my conversation, I have to say that time is ticking and I recall a special someone saying that I needed every second of it. It’s precisely 6:00 at the moment.” I say in a posh British accent.

Caitlin gets up from my side and throws a bunch of clothes on top of me. These were the clothes I had to wear, I guessed. I sorted each clothing item out and realized that Caitlin had chosen three outfits for me to decide from.

“I don’t know what to wear. That’s why you are here to help me. Caitlin? Chelsea?” I announce.

“I like the third one. You want to look cute and fashionable without looking like you’re trying too hard. “ Chelsea said.
