“Jasmine! Jasmine! We have a surprise for you!” Roxy and Emma squealed in unison. I always found it weird when they did that. They legged it across my bedroom and landed on the bed beside me. “You know girls, I gave you both a spare key to my flat for emergencies only.” I groaned and stuck my head under the duvet.

“Ah well.... guess we'll just have to go on our own won't we Emma?” Roxy said quietly.

"Yeah, looks like it. Nevermind.” Emma replied solemnly.

      I could finally take it no more and sat up. I threw the duvet off of my face and slapped it down to my waist. “Okay, fine! What's this surprise?”

       Emma and Roxy looked at eachother before saying excitedly “We're going on a girls weekend!..... In New York!”

“You're joking?!” I said, shocked.

“Of course we are. That's why we have plane tickets right here.” Roxy said sarcasticly. Shaking an envelope and dropping it on my lap. I opened the envelope and read the tickets.

“Wait a minute.....These tickets say that our flight is at nine o'clock tonight.” I said, confused.

“Yeah, well Emma couldn't get the afternoon off work so we decided to book an evening flight.” Roxy replied.

“How can we afford it?” I asked.

“Mango, cool it. It's all taken care of.” Roxy said.

“How? How did you even pay for the plane tickets?”

“Roxy got a bonus.” Emma said.

“Wait, What?!” I felt my eyes go wide and my mouth gape open.

“Yeah, well you know how Sarice and I reported my boss for sexual harassment- the creep- well we got compensation and then my new boss gave me an introductory bonus.” She shrugged.

“So, who else is going?” I ask.

“Well, Roxys bonus only went so far..”

“...So Zalma and Shuqi had to pay for themselves.” Roxy finished.

“What?! OhmiGod! This is going to be amazing!”

“Come on, lets get you all packed....by the way...why are you still in bed at ten past two?” Roxy smirked and winked at me.

“It's my day off, thought I deserved a lay-in. Also, I wasn't planning on the two of you inviting yourselves round.” I said. Roxy giggled and threw a cushion at me.       

Two and a half hours later Roxy finally announced “Right, you're all packed.” She put her hands together and smiled. She turned around and switched my stereo off.

“Hey! Why'd you cut off Chris Brown?!” I said, heartbroken.         

“Because we need to get to mine.” Roxy said. “Wow, never said that to a girl before.” She winked and dragged my suitcase out of my flat, followed by Emma who was dragging my carry-on. “Get dressed!” Roxy shouted back through the door.

Roxy and Emma went down the stairs as a freaky hobo was passed out in the lift. Once outside, Emma cried“Jesus! How heavy is Jasmines bag!” as Roxy made her hold both bags temporarily.

“I think it's all those pairs of shoes..” Roxy said, opening the boot of her car. The girls together managed to get my bags in next to their own and shut the boot without the car exploding.
