Lauren's POV
I wake up to the sound of my phone beeping. It's Taylor, of course.
"Hi." I say, still half asleep.
"Hey Lauz. I was just wondering how you are. Are you ok?" said Taylor's voice, sounding weird down the phone.
"I'm fine now that I know I won't be going through this alone." I croaked.
"That's good. So you need to start getting dressed if you don't want to be late." said Taylor, her usual bossy self.
"Ok. I'll meet you at your house in 40 minutes." I promise.
"Take all the time you need. As long as it's no longer than an hour and a half!".
I end the call and heave myself out of bed. I get into my new blue uniform; a black skirt, black socks, white shirt, blue knitted jumper and blue blazer. I nip downstairs to find Mum making breakfast. Bacon and pancakes. My favourite.
"Hello sweetheart." says mum. "You're looking very smart in your new uniform.".
"I feel it too.".
"Breakfast is nearly done, why don't you go and sit at the table?". So I go into the other room and sit down. While I wait, I put my hair into a quick fishtail plait on the right side of my head. As soon as I fasten it at the bottom, Mum walks in holding a plate stacked with golden pancakes and crispy bacon.
"Mmmmm" I say. "Smells delicious!". I manage to eat them all in 10 minutes and make my way back upstairs to brush my teeth. As I stare at myself in the mirror I wonder what is going to happen today at school. I don't think I have ever felt so scared in my life.

Taylor's POV
Ding Dong! I open the door to see Lauren standing there. An excited grin on her face. I smile.
"Hey Lauz! You look better than yesterday!" I say.
"I'm feeling better too!".
"Are you ready?" I ask.
"Ready.". And we set off on a new adventure with new challenges together.
