5SOS- I Need You.

Marie and Ayanee (17)

*MARIE'S POV*

I couldn't sleep, I was so excited about tomorrow. Sitting up, I look out my window and look up at the stars. I always wondered what it looked like at night. I wish we had windows in our rooms but that was one of Gloria's rules because she didn't want us sneaking out at night. Which if you ask me was completely stupid, we still found ways to sneak out.

I look at the time on the clock, two-fifteen was the time. I yawn before laying back down trying to get some sleep, but I couldn't I was just way to excited, This will be my first time ever leaving the orphanage for a whole day. I had been dreaming of this day for years and I couldn't believe tomorrow will finally be my day to be free.

I honestly don't know what to expect or feel. Next thing I knew it was time for me to wake up. Laken woke me up an hour earlier and made me take a shower and get dressed. Today's going to be a great day. I just know it. I smiled looking at my uniform for the last time, I will never have to wear this stupid uniform ever again. I hurried up and finished my breakfast before calling Calum. I wanted to go shopping so bad. I hurried up and dialed his number into Lakens phone hearing it ring a few times before he finally answered. "Hello?" He sounded like he was still sleeping, oops did I just wake him up?

I hope not, how embarrassing. "Calum, hey its me, Marie. Were you still sleeping? I'm so sorry if i-"

"Oh no, no it's okay, I was just about to get up anyway" He sounded so cute with his sleepy voice.

"Well, I was calling to let you know that I'm ready whenever you are"

"Okay babe I'll be over in a bit, see you when I get there"

"Okay byee"

"Bye"

I handed Laken back her phone before running downstairs to meet up with Emily and the girls before they go to class. As I ran down the hall I see Emily about to open the door. "Emily wait"

"Whoa, Marie, what's up?"

"You have a minute?"

"Sure, we don't do anything in class anyway"

"What? why?"

"I don't know nobody's telling us but ever since they arrested Gloria we have just been sitting there, bored out of our minds"

"oh, well Calum's on his way and I don't want to just sit and wait"

She laughs nodding her head. "Bathroom?"

"Sure"

We run to the bathroom. Emily smiles looking at me. "What?"

"I think you should leave your hair down today"

"Okay but I don't know how it'll look"

"Let's see"

Emily pulls out my ponytail letting down my long wavy hair, she ran her fingers through my hair letting my bangs fall infront of my face. "Face me"

I turn to face her, she smiles fixing my bangs, "There now turn and see if you like"

I turn around excited yet nervous to see what the results were. My hair looked amazing. I never knew my hair could look so good like this. We were always told how to do our hair one way, standing there looking at myself in the mirror, I saw a new me.

I felt so much confidence in myself as I stood there staring at myself. I ran my hands through my dark brown hair loving the way it felt. Emily stands there awkwardly for a few minutes letting me enjoy the moment but bringing me back to reality. "ahem, I think you should go, you don't want him waiting"
