‘’MICHAEL!’’ I screamed, running towards my best friend in the local shopping centre.

‘’ALICE!’’ he replied, also screaming, but engulfing me in a hug at the same time which hurt my ears.

‘’you alright?’’ I asked, breaking away from the hug

‘’yeah great thanks, how about you?’’ he said, a big smile of his face

‘’I’m brilliant, wanna go and get something to eat?’’ I suggested

‘’sure’’ he shrugged and linked my arm in his.

We decided on Nandos since you can’t go wrong with a good Nandos right? It wasn’t very busy since it was just gone 12 so we got a seat straight away.

‘’I don’t even know why I look at the menu, I have the same thing every time I come in here’’ I exclaimed, putting the menu back on the table.

‘’so do I, I’ll go and order, you stay here’’

‘’okay’’ I grinned and he walked up to the counter to pay for the meal. I paid last time so we keep swapping since we come in here a LOT.

I got out my phone to keep me entertained. It started to vibrate and then the classic ‘Old Phone’ tune started to play, which meant I had an incoming call.

‘’hello?’’ I answered, without checking who it was

‘’hey Als, it’s your Dad’’

‘’I can tell by your voice’’ I said, a smirk on my face

‘’don’t be cocky with me young lady, anyway, you’re out with Michael now aren’t you?’’

‘’yeah, Monday is Michael day’’ I said. That’s right, Michael day. Every Monday for more or less the past 2 years, Michael and I have spent the day together.

‘’yeah, I remember, will you come straight home when you’ve finished your day?’’

‘’yeah I will, I don’t need to go anywhere else, why is there something wrong?’’ a change in my tone occurred

‘’no, no, don’t worry Alice, nothing’s wrong, you just need to come home that’s all, you’ll see later’’ I was confused. Michael came and sat back down opposite me.

‘’ok, well I’ll see you later then, bye dad’’

‘’Bye, Alice’’.

‘’so that was your dad I take it?’’

‘’well no’’ I narrowed my eyes at him in a sarcastic way

‘’has he told you?’’ Michael took a sip of his coke

‘’told me what?’’

‘’oh’’ he smirked and looked down

‘’tell me…’’ I said, a threatening tone

‘’well you know I have a Champions League game on Wednesday?’’ he started

‘’yeah, against Real’’

‘’I thought about it, and I know a while ago I promised you I’d take you to a game?’’

I nodded eagerly.

‘’well how would you like to come to this one?’’ his smile grew wide and my expression mirrored his

‘’really? This is like the biggest game this season!’’ I squealed

‘’well if you want to come…’’ he grinned

‘’I’d love to come Michael! Oh my gosh thank you so much!’’ I got up off my seat and went to give him a massive hug

‘’you’re welcome’’ he grinned, hugging me back.
