14.
*Saturday Morning*
I'm awoken by my alarm going off. It's 7 o'clock. I decided to wake up early today because I'm going to see the apartment at 10 and I needed to organise what time to meet with the girls seeing as it's the boys' gig tonight. I jump in the shower and start to get ready for the day.
After getting ready, I quickly make myself some breakfast and say goodbye to my parents. I haven't told them about me looking at an apartment, not just yet. I take a taxi to the address and see a middle aged women standing outside. I quickly pay the taxi driver and make my way over to her.
"Hello, I'm Grace. I spoke to you about seeing the apartment the other day."
"Hello, I'm Lucy. Shall we go inside?" She says, walking towards the entrance.
It's in a modern looking building with multiple apartments in. There's also a elevator in the small lobby area. We step inside and Lucy presses the button for floor 3. As a few silent moments pass and a few glances are exchanged we reach the floor. By stepping out of the elevator I can already see that this place is well taken care of. It's very clean and modern.
Lucy starts walking towards a door at the end of the corridor. It's numbered 21. She unlocks the door with the key in her hand.
We enter the apartment and I have to say it's amazing. There's so much space and the views are incredible. The bathroom is even nicely decorated along with the bedroom. The kitchen and living room has been converted into one big living space, giving the place a more relaxed vibe.
"What do you think?" Lucy says, with a bright smile across her face.
"I love it." I say, looking around once more.
"Well, seeing as your the only person interested at the moment would you like to discuss the renting costs per month?" She says politely.
"Yes, that would be great." I say, smiling at her.
We sit down in the apartment and discuss the prices per month. Lucy kindly said that she'd happily reduce the cost seeing as I'm still only 18.
"Shall I drop the keys off to you next week then?" She says, picking up her folder and her very expensive looking handbag.
"Yes please, that would be lovely." I say, making my way out of the apartment.
I'm genuinely surprised I'm the only person who has shown any interest in the place. It's so gorgeous and it's in such a nice area too.
After finishing my meeting with Lucy, I ring Amy to see if her and the boys are in Cardiff yet. After a few rings she picks up.
"Heyy." She sings into the phone.
"Hey, are you in Cardiff yet?" I say, giggling at her.
"Yeah, we've just got to the hotel. Can we go and grab lunch or something because I'm starving." She says, almost begging.
"Aha, yeah. Where shall I meet you?"
"Just come to the hotel. We're staying at the Park Plaza."
"Okay, let me just quickly go home first and grab some clothes and stuff for tonight and I'll pick Fran up on the way." I say, whilst stepping into a taxi.
"Okay, see you in a bit." She says, before hanging up.
After around 20 minutes, the driver pulls up outside my house. I quickly run inside and throw some things together for tonight not forgetting a nice outfit and quickly jump back in the taxi. I send Fran a quick text telling her I'm on the way to pick her up. I give the driver her address and shortly we arrive at Fran's house. The driver beeps the horn and within seconds Fran appears from her house with a bag in her hand and a big smile across her face.
