I tell my parents what they missed for the past couple of days since they've been away. Honestly they hadn't missed much at all. it was around 3pm and time was slowly ticking by, the family was coming at 7 which gave me a good 4 hours to kill.
I decided to get some extra revision in while I had time too spare. I find the most recent text we are studying I English and just make notes and annotations around the text. I've read the stupid thing so many times I could read it off by heart! I check my phone too see the time. it was still early but I had been studying for a good hour and a half and my attention to the work was slowly disappearing. I put the books up onto the window sill in the dining room where I had been working.
I pick my phone up seeing many missed calls and messages from amaria {my best friend since god knows how long}. I message her too see if she was okay as I really couldn't be bothered to call her back. we have that type of friendship were we could go weeks without talking or seeing each other but still be as close and I love it so much. too pass time waiting for a reply I think about what to wear as time had somehow sped up.
I find something simple like a pair of shorts and a sort of thin hoodie as it was still hot out. so boring but who am I impressing? I put a top on underneath which shows a little skin and unzip my jacket a bit. I didn't exactly want to cover up fully but besides the point. makeup wise, I get my lashes done so I don't really but much on, some highlighter, lip gloss and blush. I put my hair in a claw clip as It looked so disgusting and not appealing to leave down.
once done my phone was pinging, I could guess it was Amaria, it was just something about her boyfriend. I seriously never hear the end of them two. it was still early ish so I put some music on and tidied my room a little as I had clothes and makeup all over.
I had just finished cleaning when my mum texts me telling me the kaulitz are here. there early? oh well. I turn my music off and go downstairs a little nervous. as I get too the bottom step I hear both our families talking, the boys stood there a little awkwardly. I turn the corner so I'm in the view of the 6 people. once we all said our greetings we walk into the dining room and sit down as my parents are still in the kitchen preparing dinner.
"what a beautiful home you have!" their mother says. I say thank you in a smile. "remind me of your name again?"
"Arabella but you can call me Bella!" I tell her
"what a beautiful name for a beautiful girl" their mum smiles at me. as I'm about to speak my mum walks in holding plates of food, my dad following holding drinks not as enthusiastic as my mother. they both sit down which then my mum starts a conversation.
"why did you move away from Germany? I'm sure its amazing there?" my mum questions there family
"it was just easier for us all. Bigger opportunities, better jobs, better pay and things like that. we do intend to visit Germany as much as we can as we obviously still have family out their and the boys still have there lives but with them not being into school anymore we plan to re start our lives and settle down in London!" their dad says with a strong German accent
"we really think you'll enjoy it" my dad replies to the comment
"we hope we do" bill buts in
we all carry on finishing our dinner and its going really well. me and the twins agreed on going out one day so I can show them around, their also talking about starting college somewhere around here to which I recommended the sixth form at my school. as I talking about school my revision notes fall off the window sill. I turn around picking them up from the ground
"what are they sweetie?" my mum asks
"just my revision from earlier"
"ooh what are you revising" bill excitedly says oddly
"this is English but the main 3 are English, history and ironically German. it really isn't my strong point god knows how ill pass it" I laugh
"we could help you? you'd have an advantage then" tom says with a slight smirk on his face
I ignore the look on his face and answer the question. "would you really? I could seriously do with the help"
"of course we will. wont we tom" bill turns his head towards his brother
after dinner, tom slips me his number as he can see his parents are getting ready to leave. as they get up and say thank you, my family wave them bye and your welcomes. once the door shuts I walk up as fast as I could In need of a lie down after that. I practically throw myself onto my bed grabbing my phone putting toms number in my phone and text him. well no, I debated on what to text him.
I didn't want too sound too formal so I just wrote something like.
hey tom, its Bella! hope you enjoyed tonight. let me know when you want too look around. x
I let my finger hover over the send button for a few seconds but then allowing myself too just do it. I quickly forget about it by putting tv on and taking my jacket off. after a good 30 minutes my phone buzzes to which I assume is tom. I pick my phone up and see a message of a number.
what the fuck is with the x how lovely
anyway. yes thank you it was so good. its whenever you free, were just unpacking.
the x is just a nice thing to do gosh
let me know if you need any help, also I'm free whenever.
how about tomorrow? you could come round and help us unpack then we could go somewhere?

he just likes the message. I set an alarm on my phone for 10 and try get some sleep.
