Me and jonny were just getting ready to leave for Adams party. Jackie had invited many people round for Friday night dinner, except instead of Jackie's marvellous food, there would be a buffet. Adam had no idea of course, me and jonny didn't even know who she could invite. Other than her own friends, we didn't really know anyone. Adams only friends were me, jonny and perhaps one man from work who he hates
"This will be a bloody disaster" I mutter as we start driving to Jackie and Martins
"Oh definetly. What a great way to say goodbye. Here pusface, a bunch of people you've met once in your life" jonny says sarcastically. We pull up onto the drive and get out, lyra on jonnys hip as we enter the house
"Oh havnt you grown" me and jonny were greeted almost immediately by some woman pinching both our cheeks
"Erm...hello?"
"Isn't she lovely" another woman says stroking lyras cheeks. Me and jonny smile nervously before pushing past
"Martin?"
"Mum?"
"Jackie?"
"Dad?" We yell looking for them. We go into the kitchen where Martin is stood in the corner, shirtless whilst Jackie yells at him. It was the only room downstairs that was empty
"I can not believe you Martin!"
"Mum! What the hell is going on?" Jonny asks in shock at the amount of people. When Jackie said a party, we expected a few people, mostly Jackie's friends. But this was like a club for single mums over 50
"Hello my darlings. Oh don't you look gorgeous" Jackie says taking lyra and tickling her sides
"How are you love?" Jackie asks me
"I'm fine Jackie. How bout you?"
"Martin is doing my bloody head in. My eldest son is leaving me for America. But seeing my favourite two girls has cheered me up" Jackie smiles kissing my cheek
"And your favourite son?" Jonny asks
"Sort out your father" and then Jackie leaves with the baby
"Whatve you done this time?" Jonny asks Martin
"All I did was tell val that she should stop crying about Larry and that she looked like a cat with mental issues"
"And she didnt like that?" I asked in fake shock
"Apparently not" we then heard the door go and Jackie start squealing. Must be Adam. Me and jonny decided to stay in the kitchen but many women piled in once Jackie and Martin had finished their spat.
"When's the wedding?" One woman asked
"Oh we actually-"
"How old is the baby now?"
"Shes-"
"What do you do for a job?"
"I'm a-"
"I need to talk with you!" Adam walks in embarrassed seeing everyone looking at him. Many people said he was grown up and that they would miss him, he didn't know any of these people but they seemed to know him
"Please" I groaned wanting to get out of this situation. We followed Adam passed many people and upstairs to his room where he locked the door
"I need your help" he says very serious
"Clearly. What the hell have you done to your hair?" I asked messing with it but he just slapped my hand away
"Not my hair shitface! My girlfriend! Diana!"
