Alana POV:

"THEY DID WHAT?!"

After the whole ordeal with Eric and Amy I stormed out of the apartment and called a cab to my best friend Rachel's and told her about everything that had happened. Rachel and I have been best friends since elementary. Carly, a girl in our 4th grade class, was picking on Rachel and pulling her hair. Rachel being the sweetheart that she is didn't fight back and I felt bad so I stormed over and punched Carly in the face. We've been besties ever since.

We were currently sitting on Rachel's couch, drinking wine with the television long forgotten as FRIENDS played in the background.

"Jesus Lana. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I'm not. "I suspected he was cheating for a while now I just didn't think it would be with one of my closest friends." I know that Eric's an asshole but I can't help but to feel hurt over this whole situation. "Regardless of everything we were friends before and it just sucks I guess."

"I can't believe Amy would do that. I mean I know she had her bitchy moments but this is crazy. So what are you going to do? What about your apartment?" Fuck I forgot about that.

"I guess I'll be moving out. My lease is already up, I was planning to renew it but I guess there's no need now."

"OH MY GOD LANA, you can move in with me now! I have the space, I was looking for a roommate who might as well be my best friend." Rachel and I lived together shortly our first year of college but then got our own places. We always planned to get a place together but when I started dating Eric he decided to move in with me.

"Are you sure Rach? I don't want to impose. Besides, I can always stay in a hotel or something until I find a place."

"Are you kidding me?! What kind of best friend would I be if I allowed you to stay in a hotel. I have the space so we can go to your apartment tomorrow while Eric is at work and get your things."

God I really don't want to go back to that apartment but I guess I don't have a choice. "Okay. I guess we're roomies again bestie."

"Ahh I'm so excited. Also I talked to Candice today and she wants to go out tonight, we should go, you could use the distraction."

"I don't know, I really just want to go curl up under a blanket and watch movies." After today, do I really want to go out. I just want to cry myself to sleep and forget all of this ever happened.

"Oh come on pleaseee. It'll be fun and keep you out of that beautiful head of yours. I know how you can be Lana so let's just have fun tonight and worry about thing 1 and 2 tomorrow okay?"

I signed, she's right. I shouldn't let those two assholes ruin my life. I can just drink my sorrows away and worry about the rest tomorrow like she said. "Fine, I'll go."

"Yes! Now let's go and get ready. I still have some of your clothes from our last shopping trip so don't worry about anything. Tonight you are going to make Eric regret ever cheating on a bad bitch."

I love her.

After our conversation in the living room Rach and I had gone into separate bedrooms and took showers. After we decided to get ready in Rachel's room seeing as I had nothing over here other than a few clothes.

Rach was currently in her walk-in closet looking for the perfect dress she claimed to have for me while I finished my makeup.

"I swear I have the best dress for you tonight. I know it here somewhere. Ah found it."
