Isabella 'Bella' Marie Rickman: This is Me

Part 14

The run of the shows leading up to Christmas was getting tiring for Bella. She was getting emails from Producers wanting to meet up with Bella when she had finished her Panto run in Sheffield.

Within this time, Bella had passed her theory test leading up to Christmas. Her driving instructor had told her that she was ready to take her test and had managed to get her booked in on the 23rd of December.

And guess what? Bella passed on the first time. Bella was so pleased with herself that she had contacted her dad saying that she would make her own way home that night. They had moved the final performance on Christmas Eve to finish at 5pm. So, they had a 10.30am and 2.30pm showings.

Bella went out and purchased a car from one of the dealerships that she had been told about. So, she was happy to herself. Her instructor had told her that she would have to go down the A1 route as she needed time on the road before she could go on the M1.

Bella was now a proud owner of a Peugeot 208 Sports Diesel in Royal Blue. It was registered under her name and her home address.

Louis was just finishing up and packing up all of his things when he spotted Bella just signing out.

"Bella, are you going home for Christmas?" Louis had asked.

"Yeah, I've passed my driving test and I'm going to be driving home for the first time. So, I will be surprising them all as I cancelled my lift back home from Tom. So, I am betting how I am getting home. It will be a surprise for them. You have a good Christmas Louis, and we shall meet up for a drink as we only have so many shows left from Boxing Day." Bella told him.

"You too Bella. Drive safely back to London. I presume you are going via the A1?"

"Yeah, I am. So, all the way towards Doncaster then onto the A1 all the way down to London. See you on Boxing Day." Bella kissed Louis on the cheek and then headed to the car park where she had loaded up the car ready for her trip back home.
