WENDY

I smooth out a large blanket with pastel flowers on it across my bed as I hear a rhythmic knock on my door.

I answer it to see a grinning girl. She is tall and has long blonde curls. It's my best friend Bebe.

Her lips are coated with a perfect shade of red lipstick and then covered with a layer of clear gloss. Her teeth are straight and white with not a single imperfection.

I realise I'm staring at her and quickly snap back to reality.

Her gorgeous curls bounce and twirl majestically as she jobs up my stairs. They dance and spin messily in the most clean way ever.

I shyly tiptoe behind her until we both reach my bedroom. She kicks her bag into the corner and sits on my double bed.

'What should we do? I've have dinner already so I won't need to eat for a while.'

'Hmm I mean we could watch a movie..?' I suggest.

'YES! It's a bit early right now so I was thinking that we could do each other's make up and hair instead'

'Alright I'll go grab some stuff, wait here for a second'

I run into the bathroom and grab a selection of different beauty products such as make up pallets and hair straighteners.

When I walk back to my bedroom I see that Bebe has scattered the contents of her clear make up bag onto my carpet.

I slip my shoes off and she does the same.

She begins twirling my hair with her slim fingers as her long nails lightly scrape the back of my neck.

I feel a slight layer of blush creep across my cheeks but I choose to ignore it.

She gathers all of my shiny black hair and ties a long rose coloured pink ribbon around it.

'Wendy how the fuck is your hair so soft and beautiful? Tell me all of ur hair secrets RIGHT NOW!' She enthusiastically jumps up and reaches across my bedroom to grab a tube of sparkly lipgloss.

We spend the entire evening doing stupid best friend things with each other.

After hours of messing around with make up we both decide that we should start watching the movie we were planning on watching.

She slides in bed right next to me and leans her head on my shoulder.

I scroll through her laptop and click on 'Mean Girls'.

As the movie starts to play I reach across her body to cover her in a soft blanket.
She snuggles into me as I do so.

Inside, I am loudly screaming but on the outside I remain calm.

I slip my hand under the blanket and feel around until my hand meets hers. I slide my fingers between hers and she squeezes my palm gently.

Half way through the movie, I feel her body become heavier on my shoulder. Wendy's eyes are closed as she breathes evenly.

Her nose slightly twitches as she peacefully rest. She is still wrapped in my arms.

I close her laptop and place it to the side. I then pull a thicker blanket over the both of us and cuddle into her.

I fall asleep in a matter of minutes. I smile at the thought of Wendy.

That night, I experienced the best sleep I've ever had.
