In school I couldn't leave a detail out about yesterday. Kira, Abby and Jenny wanted to know every bit of what happened. I get it. If one of my friends randomly slept over at a hot seniors house I would want to know everything too. In this case I was the lucky one.
"How was the sleepover at.. what was her name again?" mom asks."Uh Gloria. Well it was fun. she's sweet" I answer quickly."Great. Amazing with new friends I love that you're so open hon!" she says and gives me a kiss on my forehead. She walks downstairs while I continue to unpack all the new remedies for the flower shop.
"Gosh it's busy today" Lydia proclaims while walking the last steps up the stairs."I bet" I agreed. The heavy boxes is finally empty. I put them beside the stairs."Wow you're so helpfull around here it's so great. As much help as possible. Jamie could never. But I'm actually thinking about brining him here soon. Maybe you could get something out of him" Lydia says with a little polite laugh."Sure that would be great" I say excited. Jamie is a senior. But I never see him around at school only at family gatherings."Want to help me over here with some flower bouquets?" Lydia asks and holds up a rose."I'd love to!". Flower bouquets is one of my favourite things to do in the store.
I take some flowers from the windowsill. Some white, purple, pink and some red. We make a couple bouquets and put them in some of the new vases."That's lovely!" Lydia says."I will go put these on display you should just go home enjoy being a teenager you've done a lot today" Lydia says and picks up the flowers."Okay sure say hi to the others from me!" I say and pick up my stuff."Sure bye!" she vanishes down the stairs. I take the backdoor out.

The weather is great and many people are out shopping for the summer holidays. I decide to walk home because of the nice weather and there's only one mile. The birds are chipping and the sun is shining down on my blonde hair making it look gold.
A car horn honks out loud right beside me. I get a shock."Hey need a ride girl?". I look up and it's Maeve."You scared the shit outta me" I laugh and walks towards the car."I see. Get in" she says and waves her hand as a sign to get in.
We're driving away from the city centre."So I heard something about you andddd.." she says and looks at me."Keep your eyes on the road" I say and smirk. She knows. How does the word get around so fast?!
"It was nothing he was literally just helping me not get caught drunk by my mom" I say."Jay doesn't help people that way often you know?" she says playfull."Im sure he does" I deny."Ok if you say so" she says. We leave it there.
"Hey do you normally go to the yearly Fermin Park fair?" I ask her."Uh no" she says curios."It's that big summer celebration fair. What you've never went before?"."No. Or probably as a child but I don't remember" she says."We could all go this year. Maybe" I suggest."Yeah sure. Is there an after party?"."We can make one! The shed?" I suggest quickly. I don't want Maeve to think of me as a childish person. We will make the After party happen. Or at least I will."Sure" she says.

Mom is sleeping over at Nonna's house today. For dinner I just made a quick salad while watching the vampire diaries. It's seriously a good show.
I take on my favourite blue top. It sits tight and hugs my body perfectly. I take some mirror pictures so I can update my instagram profile picture. Last time I did that was last summer. Lots have changed since.
In the middle of taking pictures I get a text.
Received: 'Unknown number'
-'Hey Kate, it's Jay. Wanna go to the beach tn?'
