You Were My Best Friend

The Words I dreaded

PICTURE OF LAYLA 14>>>>

First day of school high school, excitement was an understatement! The girls and I have been planning our outfits, what we were going to wear, it was all giggles. I Invited them to my house so we could all get ready together and go to school together. Lilly, Louise and I were the triple L's, back at prep we were called the lovely L's we've all got necklaces with L's on, not any old kind, but very expensive ones that Lilly got us all. Her mum is a Jewellery designer, so when things go wrong we get the rest. Louise's mum is a fashion designer well known all over New York they moved here when Louise's dad got a new job. Then there's me Layla, my mum was a lawyer, my dad was a successful business man who my mum married by force. Daddy dearest is 15 years older than mummy who's only 32. But was 18 when she had me. Lilly is the leader of the group, she knows how to break down people's walls and knows when your lying. She calls it the source of "jewels" I've learnt how to avoid her confrontations mainly because I am the one with no social life. Lilly and I have grown up together along side Sean. Lilly and Sean hated each other, I was always in the middle and I had to choose one or the other. If I chose to be with Sean, Lilly would get mad at me and not talk to me for a week. If I chose Lilly, Sean would not play with me for a week. But when Louise came along I didn't have to worry about being in the middle anymore. Normally Louise would tell them to sort themselves out and leave me out of it.

Sean then started high school, everybody who's anybody attends the school. When Sean started he became really busy and was no longer the boy who used to give me piggy back rides or not do his homework unless his mum forced him to. Sean's mum was a great model well known round the world. When she had Sean she became a full time mum. Sean loved her very much. His father was always the missing puzzle. His father used to be there for him, until he passed away. That was when Sean first started WaterFalls. He changed he started doing homework and telling me he was too busy to play with me that day, or the day after, and the day after that. We still met at the tree house we had built as we were kids, well he built it, I just watched and ate my strawberries. That's when he started calling me the straw to his berries. It always made me giggle.

We but on some good music whilst we were getting ready to go to school. Lily wore the signature cream dress and black belt, her belt had little jewels on them which her mum made for her and a bow at the back. Louise had the cream coloured dress on but her mum made it slightly body fitting with no ruffles, and high knew socks with nice flattering ballet pumps. I wore the cream coloured dress as it came, with tan tights and brogues, with a black silky ribbon. We decided the night before that we were all going to have our hair down, but Lilly thought it would be better if we had our hair done all differently, she wanted her brown hair to be up and a few strands down, Louise also agreed and said she wanted her hair in a nice french braid. I decided to leave mine down and curly.

As we arrived at WaterFalls, it sure was a beauty, Louise and I were in the same dorm, where as Lilly got a different Dorm, Lilly acted like it didn't effect her but it did, because after that hour she rang her parents asking them to ring the school. Lilly could be a little over dramatic sometimes, like for example when she got her first period, she made sure that everyone knew that she was on her period. Of course when it came to period pains I was no expert considering I haven't fully started to develop myself. She would always say to me "you don't understand how it feels like to be a woman, Lay, you are so young and have so much to learn." which was rather odd considering we were the same age.

Limos were everywhere, seniors came in their own cars, and the very famous Natalia was there. She was like the Triple L's idol, she knew everything about everything. Her and my step brother had a thing, she would come round for dinner or she would come and they would decide to have a go nuts day where I was aloud to join them in baking and making Ice-cream, she was like a pretty cool big sister sorta. She would give me all this boy advice just to annoy Brad. The kissing was the worst part once they started they never stopped. Once I caught him touching her boobs, Natalia had massive boobs, brad couldn't wrap his hand round it that's how big they were, she also had long brown hair which went down to her back, she was so slim and very pretty. But when they broke up she stopped coming over, I never saw her and I hardly saw Brad, the reason in which Brad is the next CEO when dad steps down, I don't think he's ready to take over he's more grumpy than normal now. Brad is the only brother I have, well he's daddy's son and he's mum is in heaven. Brad doesn't like my mum very much, they argue all the time, once they start daddy takes me away and we go have a fun day, or he takes me to Lilly's house.
Once it got so bad that mum wanted me to leave with her and have full custody over me, but Brad and Daddy wouldn't allow it. Mum and I weren't very close, she never really wanted kids, when I was born she only stayed for the early years before she went back to gym and hard work missing some of my birthday parties, but she would get Lilly's mum to organise it for me. Lilly's mum is mum No.2 for me.
